near Lahore, India, in 1879, after hav-
ing been the cause of at least nine
deaths.
The thief was priest in the tenn
pie, who eloped with a princess OF the
Maharajah's family. They both died
mysteriously. The pearl is said to have
been at one time in the connection of
King Leopold, of Belgium. Later on
1t appeared in the possession of a
French army officer. He was killed in
duel, and his wife, to whom he left
the pearl, died of poison. Recently,
after a period during which it's history
has not yet been made clear, this sin
lister jewel was pawned in Boston for
81, ,00O ....
The pawn ticket was sold to a deal
er in pawn tickets in this city for $3.50,
and subsequently it was disposed Of
| by him to an Englishman for
$500. With the last sale all trace of
the pearl has been lost, and 1t is an
effort to recover 1t and restore it to it's
rightful original temple in India that
has brought the representative of the
Maharajah to this country, and re-
vealed the history of the famous pearl.
Can Circle Globe in Thirty Days.
According to a report just compiled
by transportation experts here, 1t is
now possible to travel around the
world in thirty days, thus throwing
| the feat of Jules Verne's hero still
further into the shade. For many
years indeed 1t has been comparatively
easy to circle the globe in less thar
eighty days, and each year has seer
some diminution of the necessary time
but 1t is only within the past few
weeks that 1t has been possible tc
make the trip within the limits OF 9
single month. The cutting down In
time is due to several causes The
most important is the completion OF
Siberian railroad and the construction
of a new railroad from Harbin to Fu-
san by way Of Mukden, Wiju and
Seoul. This saves several days.
The clipping of one day from the
trip across the Atlantic and two days
across the Pacific makes the trip ma
terially shorter and the new trains
which make the run between New York
and Seattle in ninety six hours, cut
donw the number of hours in crossing
this continent The saving Of a few
hours here and there does not seem
very important. but taken altogether
| 1t shortens the trip by at least day
OF course, it a single connection be
missed the trip cannot be made in
thirty days, and may actually require
forty or forty five days, but none OF
the connections are figured so closely
that they ought not to be made under
ordinary circumstances. The expenses
OF this remarkable jaunt would be
about $1,000 although 1t could be done
more cheaply. The actual fares amount
to $622.50, while at least $500 is esti-
mated as the minimum for other ex-
penses.

fourth, which is the baby OF the COLI

The bells will be mounted outside of
