Workmen in demollshing an ancient
house situated in the Rue de Stras-
abourg. opposite the old Mont de Piete
Mt Nantes, have made an interesting
discovery which is likely to attract
considerable attention, since the find
was at once dispersed by the men. It
consisted Of a number of gold and sill
,rsT coins OF different epochs. The
most interesting bore the efiigy of Al
yhonso VIII. king of Galicia and Cas-
tile. who reigned from 1926 to 1858.
They bear on the exergue an lnscrip-
xion In Arabic in these terms: THE
Emir OF the Catholics is aided by
Allah, and Allah protects them" The
sfnd IS interesting in more ways than
sons. and It is likely that economic
writers will not fail to make use of
these coins TO show the trade rela'
1ions OF Nantes about the period of
she Hundred Years War.

GATHERING OF THE LEADERS.
Harmony Banquet OF the Democrats
Success.

Success.
Baltimore was the scene Tuesday
Of the greatest demonstration in the
history of the Democratic party since
its national convention of 1908 in
Denver.
Ii was the Jackson Day National
Democratic celebration which began
at l o'clock in the afternoon with a
mass-meeting in the Lyric and when
ended after midnight with the close
of the banquet in the Fifth Regiment
Armory.
The most striking development of
the many during the day and night
was the Inauguration OF a movement
| for holding :he Democratic National
Convention in Baltimore next year.
II marked the passing of Hon.
William Jennings Bryan as a Demo-
cratic party leader and as possible
fourth-time candidate for the presi-
dency, as far as the sentiment OF the
speakers-notably, Senator Bailey, OF
Texas-could relegate him to the
rear. Mr.. Bryan himself was not
present, nor would be indite letter
to be read at the gathering.
Still another striking develop
ment was the expression of a decid-
ed preference for Governor Judson
Harmon, OF Ohio, as the Democratic
candidate for president next year.
At l O'Clock the doors of the Lyric
swung open and the waiting crowd
rushed in. The first sight in the lob
bies which greeted the throng we're
the posters urging female suffrage.
The Lyric was beautifully deco
rated. American flags were in evil
dence. Gen. Murray Vandiver,
chairman of the Democratic State
Central Committee, called the meet
ing to order and introduced Gov.
Austin l.. Crothers, who presided.
The speakers were
GOV. JUDSON HARMON, OF Ohio.
SENATOR JOSEPH w. BAILEY,
of Texas.
HON. CHAMP CLARK, Of Mis-
souri,, prospective Speaker of the
House of Representatives.
The tenor of all the speeches was
that as a result of the November cleo
tion the Democratic party had been
placed on probation; that the people
would watch its course with great
care, and that it must live up to its
promises to win continued support.
