PAYS PRETTY WE'LL
how a DIAMOND FIRM Is SAID TO
HAVE GROWN GREAT.

Arrests Made by the Federal Authorities of
Persons Implicated in Smuggling
sp2rkIers Into the Country in Wholesale
Lots-How q Cincinnati Firm Pays Only
Small Portion of the Diamond Duties
Collected, Yet Controls the Market of
the United States-Row the Firm has
Thrived.
philadelphia, Feb. 15-Tne arrest ear
~ this week Of Captain Loeswitz, of
the passenger steamer Rhynland,
charged with smuggling package
containing over $4,000 worth Of dla-
monds, has exposed one of the most
gigantic smuggling schemes ever I'M
earthed in this country. Captain Lo-
eswitz, who has been released under
s., 900 bonds asserted that the package
was given him by Herman Krek OF Gin
cinnati for safe keeping and that he
had no knowledge Of its valuable con-
tents when he started to bring it on
shore from the steamer and was arrest
ed, though he admits having carried
over many similar packages for krek,
who usually gave them 10 him at Ant
werp-
Herman Krek was placed under ar
rest today charged with smuggling,
and is held under s., 600 bail Krek was
a passenger from Antwerp on the stea-
iner Aller, which arrived at New York
on Friday Herman Krek is a men,
Der Of the firm Of COetrman, Henrichs
& Krek, of Cincinnati, one of the big
gest diamond cutting and dealing es-
Establishments in the country. The Gus
tums authorities here and at New York
assert that Kreks arrest will result in
the breaking up of one of the biggest
diamond smuggling conspiracies ever
known in the United States.
Charles Hess of New York, counsel
for the Diamond Importers Protective
association, had a conference with Dis
Irict Attorney Ingham today, prior TO
the warrant being issued for krek' S
arrest. He claimed that his clients
paid 80 per cent OF the diamond duties
Of the country while Krek's firm only
paid a small portion of the remaining
10 per cent and yet the latter's firm
absolutely controlled the market of the
United States, so that legitimate i'm
p0rters were frozen out Of business.
Mr.. Hess claimed that Kreks firm was
rated at $4,000 two years ago, when
the duty on diamonds was 10 per cent.
Since it was raised TO % per cent the
firm rating had increased TO $1,000
Mr.. Hess stated that special treasury
agents in Europe and agents Of the as
ISOLATION i II this country had tracked
Krek on his various visits and United
States District Attorney Ingham sta
TED to a reporter Of the Associated Press
that Mr.. Krek was not held on mere
suspicion, but that a very strong case
would be made out against him when
he mad his hearing on March IS. The
delay is ocasioned by the absence of
Captain Loeswitz, who was allowed to
take his vessel on another voyage and
who viii not return to this port until
the middle of March.

SOUSA'S BAND.
At Atlanta, Ga, during the Cotton
States Exposition Sousa's band fur
nished the music, giving two free con-
certs each day in the Auditorium. The
attendance at these concerts was so
large that the exposition management
concluded 70 give an extra concert each
day, charging an admission fee. The
patronage of the paid concert was so
large that the exposition management
received from them money enough to
cover the entire expense of the band
during the fair. This worlds greatest
band will be in Wichita for one concert
Thursday, March Il, a. the Auditorium,
when our music loving people will again
have an opportunity to hear a concert
such as Sousa and his great band alone
can give.

An Adventure with One OF These AaiHnAIa
When 1t Hunted the Hautsr.
A correspondent writing from Mecu-
noma, Muskoka, gives an interesting ac
count of an adventure whica ne had
with a moose while employed N making
a toboggan trail through one of the pine
forests in that section of the country
While engaged at work he came acqoss
moose yard and ON looking around saw
one of the giants of the forest about
so yards distant The story of his en-
counter is perhaps best told in the cor
respondents S own words:
After a moment" he writes, 1.-THE
moose turned and walked behind hill,
which, though not high, was steep. l
ran to the top with all speed, hoping to
get n view Of the lordly creature as he
made his way through the bush. / could
not see him at first, but On looking down
the steep incline there he was, not ten
yards away. He turned TO make off, but
striking his ribs against the projecting
limb Of small hemlock he was thrown
down and around the tree, and as he
rose he faced me- 1t was now my turn
to run, for the moose charged at me
with erected name, expressing his rage
by a fierce below. In turning / stunt
bled, the ground being very uneven, and
his feet nearly came down on me as
lodged among some trees I tried TO
strike with my hatchet, the only weapon
had, but did not succeed i'll injuring
my pursuer. With some difficulty NJ
list got ont into the deep snow where
my snowshoes were Of more use to me.
The moose still pursued me, roaring at
intervals. and one who has not heard q
moose roar can form but little idea Of
the terrible believing noise. After sew
ecal attempts to strike me with his front
feet he balked and stood about 90 yards
away paving and roaring. l eagerly
seized this opportunity to climb tree.
and soon after the animal turned and
made off. OF all my adventures in tine
bush, and they number a few, the one
! have just related came the nearest TO

Working Up n Climax.

The barber was cheerful man, fond

thought he would astOniSh and pleas,
Linn with some conversation and per
haps the official would i'll turn write ont

So the barber was light and merry,
learned and philosophical by turns, and
was well pleased with the expression
that stole over the officials face, so full
Of appreciation was it. He knew that he
would handle pour boire of a quarter,
if he did not get the pass He was de-
termined to please, and when the official
asked him if he had any cotton handy
the barber said he thought he had. He
sent quickly to a store and secured q
small supply Of the cotton, and giving it
TO the official that gentleman took two
small fragments and put them in his

WHEN MABEL SMILES.

When Mabel smiles, my heart beats hign-
A softer azure tints the sky,
And zephyrs sweet fit laughing by,
With strains unheard before,
While ! look in her peerless eyes
And envy rot tho ricn and wise
Nor heavenward gaze with wistful sighA.
For heaven can yield no more.
When Mabel frowns, the world Is drear,
Each trembling dewdrop seems tear,
The roses droop in grief and fear
And cease to breathe perfume.
Alns, for me, q mournful swain.
The dismal moments drag In pain,
For who could bear to meet disdain
From lips SO full of bloom?
When Mabel smiles. my heart is proud,
When Mabel frowns, my heart Is bowed,
But be she dark or sunny browed
She reigns my bosom's queen:
And well she knows who rules in state.
That JOY and pain must alternate.
And so fair Mabel hides my fate.
A smile and frOWn bctwceu.

next paper appearing Sunday
morning March 1. While the
month just about gone has not
been flush with business we are
none the less encouraged for the
future. We look forward to
March with hopeful anticipation of
better results, not only in our
business but in all lines. Whether
these hopes materalize or not the
ARDMOREITE will continue to move
on just the same. 1t never begun
