The Alamo

THE Alamo, a Franciscan mission—-the most noted in all Texas, was

originally established in the Rio

Grande valley and moved to a pointnow within the limits of the city of

San Antonio about 1720 because of

annoying disturbances.The church and its yard, covering

some two and one-half acres, sur-rounded by a protecting wall eight

feet high and almost three feet thick,was repeatedly the subject of disturb-ing outrages by the Mexicans whofinally captured it.

In 1836, during the war for the in-dependence of Texas, a small garrisonof some 180 determined Texans andAmericans held an overwhelming num-ber of Mexicans at bay during a bom-bardment which lasted almost contin-uously for twelve bloody days. Al-though driven back repeatedly andwith appalling losses, the Mexicansfinally succeeded in making a breechin the wall, clambered over the par-apet and by desperate hand-to-handfighting gained possession only afterall but five of the Texans were killed.These were taken prisoners and later

executed.Later on, the name Alamo was

adopted. ‘‘Remember the Alamo” be-came a war cry. The determined Tex-ans captured the Mexican general andwon independence.

Today, this aged, battle-scarred mis-sion which stands much as it appearedat the close of the final struggle, isused as a museum to house early-dayrelics and records of Texas and liasbeen referred to as the Thermopolaeof America and stands out as one ofthe monuments of American history.

CLEVER CHECK FORGER ISSPOTTED BY LOCAL BANK

Suspicion aroused by discrepanciesin a signature, officials at the Ari-zona Central hank saved themselvesfrom a clever check forger who hasbeen working in this territory and whothe day previous had tried to passchecks on Indian Miller at CanyonDiablo and Herschel Hill, proprietorof the Commercial Case. Nervous-ness of the man on both occasionsmade the men investigate the checkswhich were declared forgeries.

The Arizona Central bank wasasked to cash a check by a tall goodlooking young man for the sum of$41.50. He gave the name of HenryKnapp, and said he was working forthe Flagstaff Light company. Of-ficials at the bank decided that thecheck signed by Andy Matson was aforgery and tried to hold the manwhile police officers were called. Theman became suspicious, and whileFred Browning was telephoning thesheriff’s office, he slipped under thecounter and made his getaway.
