PRISON FOR DIAMOND MAKER"
Frenchman Accused by Head Of De
Beers Company Convicted.


Paris, July 7.-Henri Lemoine, self
styled diamond maker, was sentenced
to six years Imprisonment, to pay a
fine of $780, Introduction de sojour for
five years, and the payment of $4,000
damages to Sir julius Wernher, whom
he is alleged to have defrauded out Of
1920, 900.
TIL sentence marks the end of a
trial which began in May and aroused
the interest of practically the whole Of
Europe. The jewelers. and scientists
of France still are divided as to wheth.
er Lemoine has found the formula for
making diamonds by chemical pro-
cess for which the learned men have
been searching for centuries or wheth.
er he is trickster who succeeded in
bunkoing Sir julius Wernher, head Of
the great De Beers diamond syndicate,
out of hundreds of thousands by a
smoothly worked piece of conjuring.
Those who have faith in the claims
of the prisoner say that the paper
which he deposited in London bank
and refused to produce at the demand
of the courts really tells the secret of
producing precious gems from common
metals; others claim that the "dia-
mond faker' used trick crucibles In
his experiments and that the diamonds
which were brought to light before the
eyes of spectators were hidden in a
secret compartment before the tests
began.
Lemoine himself claims he is the
victim Of plot to gain possession of
his secret and use it for the benefit of
the plotters.

New York-Theodore Roosevelt, ex-
president of the United States, sailed
out of New York harbor Tuesday on
the steamer Hamburg of the Hamburg
American line on the way to his much
heralded hunting trip in British East
Africa.
On the dock was large assemblage
of Mr.. Roosevelt's friends, who had
gathered to bid him God-speed, and
who cheered him as he stood at the
rail of the steamer waving his hand
and smiling with delight. Beside him
stood the three men selected from
hundreds of applicants to accompany
him and assist him in collecting the
specimens of African fauna which he
hopes to send back for the enrichment
of the Smithsonian institution. These
fortunate individuals were Maj. Ed

The versatility OF Mr.. Roosevelt will
be shown by the fact that he will
speak German In his address before
the students of the University OF Der.
lin, French in his lecture at the Scr.
bonnie, and English in delivering the
Romanes lecture at Oxford.
Pays His Own Expenses.
Mr.. Roosevelt will defray the ex.
penses Of himself and his son on the
African trip, but those of the scien.
lists and the cost of preparing the
specimens and shipping them to Amer.
lea will be paid out of fund secured
for the purpose by the Smithsonian
institution.

During last summer he contracted with
Charles Scribner's Sons, of New York
giving that firm all the rights for the
serial and book-form publication OF
whatever he might write on his visit
to Africa. II is said that the contract
price agreed upon is 81 per word
but this never has been verified.
No Slaughter Of Animals.
Even IL the British colonial govern
ment should offer to throw open to Mr.
Roosevelt and his companions the Az
rican game preserves under its con
troll, the ex-president will refuse tc
take advantage of this opportunity
Like other true sportsmen, he believes
that the utmost protection should be
| given to wild animals on reservations
and that permission to kill them
should not be given or accepted under
any circumstances unless, possibly
when predatory animals are becoming
too numerous.
Moreover, the killing OF animals for
sport is not the main object of his trip

the Smithsonian institution two adult
specimens, one Of each, sex. and Z
specimen OF their young of animals

a short stop will be made; then a

formed and the journey across
Uganda to the Nile will be begun. 1t
is expected that the White Nile will
be reached about the first Of the year

touched at Kibira.
In a general way the course OF the
Nile will be followed to Gondokoro,
and thence to Khartoum. At this city
Mr.. Roosevelt and Kermit will be

continue down the Nile slowly to
Cairo. visiting many points OF interest

PREVENTING PAINT TROUBLES

or substitution in the paint materials.
And you know the only remedy is re-

A little knowledge of paint and
painting requirements, and how to

LESS MEAT
Advice Of Family Physician.

Formerly people thought meat nee
essary for strength and muscular
vigor.
The man who worked hard was sup
posed TO require meat two or three
times a day. Science has found out
differently.
1t is now common thing for fam
lily physician to order less meat, as in
the following letter from N. Y. man
Il had suffered for years with dys
pepsia and nervousness. My physician
advised me TO eat less meat and
greasy foods generally. tried several
things TO take the place of my usual
breakfast of chops, fried potatoes, etc,
but got no relief until l tried Grape.
Nuts food.
After using Grape-Nuts for the
cereal part of my meals for two years
am now a well man. Grape Nuts
benefited my health far more than the
$4,000 worth OF medicine | had taken
before.
My wife and children are healthier
than they had been for years, and we
are very happy family, largely due to
Grape-Nuts.

Mr. Roosevelt will go via Gibraltar
to Naples, where he will board

line for Kilindini harbor, the port of
Mombasa. At the latter place the
party will be joined by r. ]. Gun.

this section that Mr.. Roosevelt hopes
to obtain most of his specimens, for
IL abounds with animals of all kinds.
The smaller mammals will be trapped.
The supplies of the party are packed
in tin-lined boxes. These boxes when
they have been emptied will be used
as packing cases for the various speci-
mems. Many valuable natural history
specimens have been spoiled by ants
and other insects, IL has been found
from experience on other expeditions,
and II is to guard against this that
the tin-lined boxes are being taken
along.
Caring for Specimens.
When the specimens have been pre-.
pared they will be carefully packed in
the boxes and shipped to Nairobi,
where they will be forwarded to the
