A slash of his knife laid the bag
open, disclosing to view a hoard of
small, gritty-looking pebbles Of vary
| ing es-rubies--wealth untold. He
| picked out some Of the largest and
! endeavored to clean them on his coat
sleeve. Two needed washing before
he could make ANYTHING of them, and
he slipped them into his pocket. The
LARGEST of all was less begrimed and
taking 1t gingerly between his finger
and thumb he raised 1t toward the
light. There he held it in blank
Amusement, for peering over the edge
of the opening, his face twitehing with
excitement, was the man, Vyse, carry
ing in his hand with obvious fear,
cheap, nickle-plated revolver.
"Oh," said Harvey, $50 you're there?
How about the police|
The little man lifted the revolver
with shaking hands.
"Gfve'em to me, give'em to me, curse
you, they're NINE"
tYou internal little shyster," cried
Harvey, ''put that gun down. Put it |
down, tell you, or ] will wiring your
scraggy neck" And with quick |
movement he reached upward to seize
the weapon.
WISE started in terror. The next In
slant there was fash and a report
and the bullet scared Harvey's fore
arm. He struck with his other hand,
but lost his balance, slipped, and fell.
Mr.. WISE shrieked with fright and
lay groyelling on the floor, as Harvey
sank into the water with dull splash.
The bag of jewels, already open, fol-
lowed him, emitting a tinkling sound.
as one by one the famous RAYMOND
rubies sank toward the soft, black ooze
of the river bed.
When he recovered his senses, a
matter of probably some FIVE seconds,
was swimming mechanically
In the calm back-water with the mill
house behind him. He still held the
big ruby tightly pressed between his
first and second fingers.
CHANGING about him, he struck out
for the nearest bank, and then began ,
to swear vehemently. His arm hurt
him for one thing and he yearned for
the blood Of Vyse with a most unholy
onging. His hand instinctively sought
his pocket with the idea OF finding a
to wipe the water from
his face. He did not find 1t, but in
stead he found the two other large
'ubies which he had placed there not
i've minutes before. Then he stoppeO
swearing and began to laugh. After
Ill, three immense rubies were not so
rad. They would bring hind a figure
we'll into the thousands, a very good
nights worl1-further his keen sense
II hum0r conjured up vivid picture
If little, ferrity man. running, terror
stricken, through the dark night,

murder which he had never intended

The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1905-09-15

Rowland Harvey was q gentleman
by profession with refined tastes IN
horse flesh, old wines and big game
shooting. These being expensive
things and his worldly possessions
amounting. In American money, to
some fifteen dollars odd, the clothes on
his back and file OF unpaid bills, he
looked upon the world with a some
what cynical eye at the time Of which
this small adventure Is written.
Mr.. Harvey was lank, muscular and
bronzed, with q handsome mustache,
splendid health and q somewhat shiny
suit OF clothes.
He was contemplating a new start
in life, and not wishingto be trammelled
with the possession of unnecessary
property, had determined to disposeI
Of his present cash holdings and start
square. With fifteen dollars he could
spend at least one enjoyable evening,
living ON the fat Of the land and feast
ing on a rare dish or two of which
he had learned In foreign trayels-for
good clothes he cared nothing. Care
less OF appearance, he had, however,
been a man of some parts, and he felt
that his entertainment would be in |
complete If a mental diet was not in
cluded in his bill of fare; so it was to
that end, on a drizzly Thursday even
ing, close onto seven o'clock, that he
strolled into a secondhand book store
and idly scanned some tattered
volumes Of old tales. Most of them
We're trash, but at last he found one
which suited his bizarre fancy-a

eyes, for III the midst of the Greek he
had come across some scattered

another was Brayford Grange, and
then there was some mixed Greek and

His interest was now thoroughly

for which an innocent man came near
losing his life.

The crime was the sensation Of the

most famous Of all the Jewels, were

The balloon, however, has assembled
into the sky as high as it has been pos
sible for man to exist. In 1901, NJ
Berson went up to the record height of
$4,000 feet-almost seven miles-and
nearly 1900 feet above the region of
the highest clouds. The following year
a balloon from Strasburg Observatory
reached height of 1900 feet. This
balloon was, of course, unoecupied.
OF things more substantial than bal
loon ascensions, the Eifel Tower which
rises 984 feet is the highest building
in the world. Mount Everett rises
2S,995 feet, the loftiest peak on earth.
Its summit has never and probably
never will be reached by man unless
in an airship. DIR. Workman, of
Worcester, Mass, holds the highest
record for mountain climbing which is
23,993 feet. His wife is a close com
petitor and has the woman's mountain
climbing record for 21,910 feet.
