lawsuit in Paris.
The prince some time ago sought
10 sell the necklace. and went to
Froment-Meurice a well-known jew
eler The latter said that il would
take some time to find purchaser
SO in the meantime as matter of
precaution the necklace was pledged
az the Mont de Piete Some time af-
terward the prince instructed the
jewelers. TO redeem the necklace.
Then there appeared on the scene a
man who was known to the ieweler
rs friend OF Don Jaime. This person
represented himself to be the sec
retary OF Don Jaime, and induced
the ieweler 10 hand over the necklace
TO him. He then took il TO Messrs.
Pollak and Rothschild, the bankers
and negotiated loan upon it. still
representing himself as the owners
representative.
The pseudo secretary was subse.
quently prosecuted for fraud and
sent to prison. Don Jaime then asked
that his necklace should be returned
to him. but the bankers demanded
the money advanced upon it. Don
Jaime sued the ieweler and the bank
ers for damages. and the bankers in
turn sued Don Jaime for the money
advanced to the false secretary.
The whole affair was threshed out
and the court in a Judgment worthy
of Solomon, apportioned blame ali
around. II held that all three o
the parties to the action had beer

the prince for admitting TO his init

Hearst's Luck.

William Randolph Hearst is certainly a
lucky man. Born with a golden spoon in
his mouth. he inherited the means to estab-
lish chain of newspapers of a character
to give him certain notoriety, which he
has managed to hammer into the semblance
OF political prestige Selling upon the dis
affection OF portion of the people. he has
played the demagogue. posing as the friend
OF the great nnwashed and the advocate Of
reform. Such role ordinarily requires
great ability. worthy of better cause.
Eut Mr.. Hearst has something better than
mere ability. He has luck. Fate has played
into his hands at every turn. He set up his
pir-s for the democratic nomination for
President in year when every force In
the universe made for the election of the
republican candidate. Had Mr.. Hearst been
nominated at st. Louis he would have been
smothered so completely that his political
life would have been at an end. He lost
