followed the example of the meaner

The evening was far advanced when
Mr.. Wilding and his two companions
descended to Uplyme Common from
the heights whence as they rode they
had commanded a clear view of the
fair valley of the Axe, lying now un-
der thin opalesceht veil of evening
mist.
They had paused at minister for
fresh horses, and there Wilding had
paid visit to one of his agents
from whom he had procured a hum
dred guineas. Thence they had come
south at sharp pace, and with little
said. Wilding vas moody and
unconscionable rashness OF the man
upon whom all his hopes were CEN

across Uplyme Common in the twi-
light they passed several bodies of
countrymen, all heading for the town.
and one group sent up shout OF

they had met several such since leav-

was spreading fast, and the whole
countryside was alive with mes

lives depended on their haste.
They made their way to the mar

ration-the remarkable manifesto
from the pen OF Ferguso:l-had been

having ascertained where His Grace
was lodged, they made their way to the

at that same moment Trenchard,
hearing his returning hoofs, thrust

lowing at his heels. The old player s

stood, and 1t was querulous with i'm
patience.
What a plague do you mean, dali

he cried, to which Falfancy added:

At that she checked her impulse

Monmouth nodded. and as Wade
passed out, Ensign Cragg entered to

OLDEST COIN TO ALAMO
visitor Presents Copper Piece Dated
$50 b. c.

One OF the most valuable donations
made recently to the Alamo was given
on Saturday by P. F. Schwaudt,, q
visitor in San Antonio. who added
an Ottoman coin dating $50 u. Z. 70
the collection of old coins in the
shrine.
Mr.. Schwaudt stated that he inves'
tigated the coins history. after &C
curing it from a curio shop in the
East, and he found that the date on
il is genuine. In order to find out
to his own satisfaction. he sent tue
old copper piece to Turkey, to the
treasury, and received letter in re-
turn stating that the coin is genuine
and of the period represented on its
worn face.
. This is the rarest and earliest piece
of money that the Alamo possesses,
and, according to the recent coin IN
vestigation conducted in San Antonio,
it is the oldest piece in the entire city.
According to coin collectors who have
seen the copper piece from Turkey,
there are few coins in the world older
than this piece, as money does not
date very much further back than
this coin.
