The Origin of Money.

1t was somewhere between the
years SAG and $50 b. c. that money
in the form of gold and silver coins
came into use in Lydia. an ancient
country of Asia Minor. Croesus
was the monarch who introduced the
system of coinage. gold being held
more valuable in proportion of three
to four. 1t is said that Darius OF
Persia. soon adopted the idea of
such a medium as 1t simplified the
trade.
The Greeks introduced their first
metal coin some time during the
seventeenth century b. c., and the
entire civilized world had adopted
the money system by the fourth
century b. c. Up to the death of
Alexander the Greek coins bore on
them sacred subjects in the form of
some deity. Coins of Miletus bear
n lion; those of Eretria show a COW
and a sucking calf those of Cyzicus
show a funny fish. All these were
symbols of godesses. Coins issued
under the empire bear the imperial
bust on one side mad some sacred
EN- helm on the other. Greek coins
have been of great assistance to
scholars in systemizing Greek myth
ology.
Passion of Greece. was probably
the first man to develop the idea of
lending money at "A high rate of in
terest. He opened "A house chat to-
day would be called a bank at Ath-
ems, where money was loaned out
at interest with good security. He
started this bushes with "A capital
of so talents (s5O.O00). Later he
established credit for himself at all
! centers of Greek commerce.
Thus did the banking system
come inc vogtue. making commerce
between different nations possible
and bringing about many rich in
dustries. Gold always remained the
most valuable metal. and silver was
second in value. Brass and copper
always appeared in coins of small
value.

AUSTIN WINS REMNANT.
Grabs "Glad Rag" in Texas League
 Beyond a Doubt.

Dallas, Tex, Aug %. The 1911 championship of the baseball league was settled today when Austin won one game of a double header at Fort Worth.
 Regardless of tha results of the oth- CT games, Austin will finish in first place. There are but seven and one half games ahead of Waco and it will be impossible for Waco or any other team to overtake her even if Austin should lose all of the seven games she has to play.
 The Austin team climbed to the front by a remarkable spurt begin ming late in July in which she won .22 straight games, Undsr tae direc- tion of Dale Geer, the team has play. ed consistent ball throughout and this unusual winning spurt gave them Ia lead that could not be overcome, although the team is not regarded as .dhe strongest in thd league,
 Until Austin spurted to the front, the Texas League race was remarka- ble for it's closeness. Since the sea son opened every teRm except Gal weston has been in the lead at one time or another and 1t was possible on any day for a stretch of three weeks for any one of seven teams to go on top in two days play.
 Four teams promise to fight it out for second place. Waco is now hold ing by a margin of half game over Fort Worth. San Antonio is but a game behind and Dallas having won eleven straight games. is pushing hard on San Antonios heels,
