everybody knows it. Playing at Monte
Carlo and motoring home in the wee
small hours with a medly assert
ment of companions, frequenting
Partisan cafes chantants entirely
unchaperoned, entering locaEs tennis
tournaments under an assumed name,
taking motor boat trips with her
cousin unattended even by a maid
and wearing trousers in public are
only a few of the many pranks in
which this royal princess has INDUCED
at different times. They serve, how
ever, to explain how she gained for
herself the nickname.
Despite these unusual phases of tenn
permanent, the grand duchess has
many redeeming qualities. She is in
tensely charitable, and generous-heart-
ed to fault. She is brilliant and fas-
cinating, and, though she loves fun.
and knows how to get it, it is said
that when all is said and done her
gravest faults have been breaches of
custom and tradition rather than of
morality.

CHRISTIAN IN TURK CABINET
This Armenian Holds Unique Distinc-
ton in Ottoman Empire-Popu-
lar with New Regime.

Constantinople. - Gabriel Nurend-
sungian Effendi has most unique
claim to public attention at this mo-
ment. His is the unusual distinction
of being the first Christian to hold a
portfolio in a Turkish cabinet. The
idea is violently opposed to all our
conceptions of the fanatic loyalty of
the Mussulman to his religion and his
burning hatred of all others.
The regime of the Young Turks in
the Ottoman empire is responsible for
the elevation of Gabriel. He has been
named as minister of public works
and commerce in the cabinet, and

see a sure and quick profit, and asked
for particulars.
It's perfectly simple" explained
CIeland. Il once did young fellow a
good turn and kept him out of lot of
trouble. He's the trusted messenger
in the Nineteenth National bank here
now. This bank is the clearing house
for a lot of smaller banks and also
gets the biggest part of the city's de-
posits. They get thousands of dollars
in old and dirty money every week
which they turn in to the subtreasury
on Wall street, getting new bills in re-
turn. This young friend of mine has
been the messenger and made the ex-
changes He says they never even
open the sealed packages of bills that
he takes to them and which have been
certified to by the officers of the bank.
The subtreasury simply o ks the
amount on the back of the package
and forwards it with a lot of similar
bundles to Washington, where the old
and dirty money is never counted, but
just ground up and destroyed. He has
thought the whole plan out and says
he can substitute phony package for
the one with the old bills in it He
has to have some one in the deal with
him, for he would never dare to try to
get rid of the old money. / saw him
this afternoon and tomorrow he will
have to make his regular weekly trip,
and the package already is made up
with 100000 in good money in it. All
he wants is half for his share and /
can give him $4,000 in 800 and $500
clean bills and take the package.

I will have to get some one to go In
the deal with me. You two can come
in for s., 900 each. Are you on2 And
wait minute, you needn't agree right
now, but meet me at ten O'Clock in the
morning and go with me to the Nine
teenth National and see my fsisIS for
yourself
The two agreed to meet Cleland on
the morrow and said goodnight And
what do you think of it?' inquired
Floyd as they went down on the ele-
vator. I'm a little afraid of it"
We'll, let's look into it, anyway" re-
turned Solomon IF there's a chance
to pick up some easy money, I
want it."
On the following morning they were
convinced that the deal was a good
one when they went to the Nineteenth
National with CleIand. and visiting
the safety vault section of the bank,
met Danny Roberts as that young man
came out of a small compartment in
his shirt sleeves with package of
papers in his hands and a pencil be-
hind his ear. Danny looked the part
of a busy clerk and they heard him
whisper nervously to Cleland that 1T
was all right" He added that he
would be at the appointed place at
precisely IL o'clock.
The appointed place was a small
dingy Office of dilapidated build
ing on New street. Cleland ex-
planned that it was the office of
friend who dealt in curb stocks and
was seldom in, but allowed him free
use of the place. The trio were wait
ing when Danny Roberts, carrying a
suit case, entered. He Immediately
took from the case two packages, ex-
actly alike in appearance and as to
outer signs and seals. Quickly cutting
one of them open, he disclosed large
bundles of money. 1t took half hour
to count this out and ascertain that
there was $4,000 in the lot. Fifteen
thousand dollars in large bills were
placed in the hands of Danny, who
hurried away. In five minutes the
old bills of perfectly good money

Gambling in Green Goods
By JOHN IRVING DAY
Garnering the Gold by a Unique Method, Originated
and Practced by doc" Floyd

Whats the game, F1oyd?' inquired
Jack Cleland who had visited his
friends room in the hotel ten minutes
after they had reached the big Broad
way hotel.
well, old top, you know what we
are on here for was the reply.
you've got to sell an order of green
goods to some one. You are lucky
because I've already found your man
for you. 1t must be some one, SO why
not our friend Solomon? He's already
delivered himself
The trio met in the lobby of the
hotel a few moments later and Solo
mon insisted on having just one drink
before they parted company for the
day and then also insisted that they
dissipation Cleland would indulge in
that evening after dinner was the the
alter to which he consented to accom-
pany Floyd and Solomon. After the
theater, however, Floyd was indeed
the gay man of law away from home
for good time and he put Solomon
through such PAGES as to endear him
to the heart of that boisterous person.
This journey through the tenderloin
was followed by another. Solomon
liked the gay life but was beginning
to have pain in his pocketbook, so
that when the third evening after his
arrival in Gotham, Cleland proposed
another game of cards, saying that he
wanted revenge for his loss on the
train, there was ready consent on the
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1909-07-31

ERE'S hoping that you get
even, alderman" Doc Floyd
raised a goblet of sparkling
burgundy, across the brim
of which he glanced and
smiled at the member of
the High Rollers club who
was host at a dinner he
was giving in part pay
ment of a bet that there

try with $4,000 who could

part of the westerner, who proposed to
make some one else pay his expenses
If he could. Cleland already had found
the drummer telephone number and
invited him to dine and join them in
another little friendly game
Again Solomon won, but his win
nings were small. The salesman, also,
was allowed to carry away a few dol
lars for his evenings work. Floyd,
however, made heavy winning and
Cleland lost $4,000, playing with the
feverish recklessness that comes to
the average loser at cards. The game
broke up when the salesman an
nounced that he would have to quit
and get a few hours sleep before ap-
pearing at his place of business. Gle
land went off to his room with a
crouch, refusing even to take a
..night-cap'' drink. Solomon, however,
readily accepted Floyd's invitation to
take in some of the aIl-night restaur-
ants.
Il wonder if our friend has left town
without saying good-by,'' remarked
Solomon to Doc Floyd two days after
the poker game in which Cleland had
lost his money to Floyd. He had not
appeared since that time
Il wonder?' replied Floyd Let's
inquire of the clerk at the desk and
see if he's gone" Acting upon this sug-
gestion they learned that Mr. sMcCie-
land" the name under which Gle
land was known to them, was still in
town, and in fact was in his room at
that moment
Let's go up and see what ails him. 9

proposed Floyd. Maybe he's not feel
ing well"
In his room the two callers found
CIeland pacing the floor with a wor-
ried look on his face. 1t was anything
but cordial welcome which he gave
them
Not i'll. hope" said Floyd. Wed

thought we'd look you up. Haven't

ITO tell you the truth, fellows,

that losing I'm only a salaried man,
you know, and can't really afford to
play that kind of a game, even if my

I've got a chance to get more than

me do it though, and besides I've got.
to have more money than I've got to
put the deal through
Buck up and tell Us about it, broke
in Solomon. And say, kid, don't let
your conscience put too much weight
on you. Throw it away and get rid of
the handicap, but don't do anything
to get into jail I don't mind telling
you that there are two or three places

Il wonder if 1 should tell your" re-
piled Cleland, Frightening perceptibly,
polished actor that he was.
Yes, go ahead and out with it, re-
turned Floyd. You know we lawyers
hear some strange stories now and
then and can't afford to be too partic
ular as to our clients"
We'll, I'll tell you on one condition.
agreed Cleland. "That condition is
that you come in on the deal with
me. I haven't got enough capital to
put it through, anyway. There's no
danger in it, and it's a sure way to
make a big haul"
Both Floyd and Solomon agreed to
come in on any deal where they could

were divided into three packages Of
equal amounts and tied up into neat
paper-bound parcels on the roll-top
desk.
Just at that moment there was a
knock on the locked door of the Of
flee and C1eland slammed down the
top of the desk and kicked the waste
paper underneath before he went to
answer the summons
1T was only a customer looking for

turned and raised the top of the desk,
disclosing the three neatly tied par

Solomon and Floyd, acting like two
conspirators, agreed to take separate
conveyances uptown to their hotel and
to meet there later and drink to their
good luck
Two hours later, when Floyd had
not put in appearance, Solomon began
to feel nervous He was afraid some
thing had happened to Floyd and Gle
land. but for another half hour he
did not suspicion anything further,
and then he suddenly decided to go to
his room and investigate his newly
acquired wealth

Theory of Earth,s Interior.

For the best essay on the earth's in
terror the University of Jena has
awarded a prize to NJ. Theme, whose
theory is thus outlined: The mean
density of the earth is known to be
more than five times that of water. AS
the surface rocks have an average
density of only 21z and water of I, the
interior must have a density of about
7.-that of iron. 1t is fairly certain
also that the rigidity is slightly great

that the earth's crust is about $50
miles thick, instead of the 80 miles of
the common estimate and that it in

Widow Tells of Marriage on

Separation Week Later
Body of Husband Identified After
Her Letters We're Returned
Unopened

Met her future husband for the first
accepted a proposal of marriage the
same day; married in Los Angeles Sep
tember 16; quarreled and parted one
week later-such was the experience
of Mrs. Maud Bose as related by herself
in Judge Grahams court yesterday.
The husband whom she left. Frederick
Bose. is now dead. The widow claims
his estate worth s57o, and probably
viii get it. as Bose left no will. and
his only other relative is his mother,
who lives in Germany.
Mrs. Bose, then Mrs. Lefern, was
keeping a lodging house in Oakland
September, 1906. when Bose appeared
and asked for room. 1t was a case
of mutual attraction, but the swift
course of love was helped along by the
circumstance that Bose exhibited a
bank book showing he had a substan-
tial deposit. The next day they went
to Los Angeles and were &narried. Mrs.
Bosses daughter by a former husband
accompa MED them
Mrs. Bose explained to the judge that
the quarrel was due to disparity in
age. Bose being about so, and nearly
20 years older than she. After they
separated she was sorry and wrote to
him. but her registered letters were re-
turned unopened. The first she knew
of her husbands death was a notice
in the paper. She went to an under
taking parlor in San Francisco and
identified the body.
Testimony in corroboration of that
of Mrs. Bose was given by the daugh-
ter Briefs viii be submitted to the
court on the question of whether or
not the mother in Germany is not en-
titled to half the estate, because the
wife was not dependent on her hus-
band.
