He. natural ly enough, regarded it as an heir loom for his daughter: an heirloom which would outvie the most precious possession of the wealthiest families; though its greatest value in his eyes lay in the fact that his child would some day wear it on her bosom, and set the world a-gaping."
 "One can understand his feeling,' said Reece; "but the child was only a baby then; some years would have to pass before she could wear such a gem; it was rather a dangerous pos session to keep and protect. What did he do with it?"

 "Yes. something happened" assent ed MT. Lexham solemnly. "On the night of the day on which the ruby came back to the Hall, Sir Mortimer died. He died suddenly. He slept in the west wing, now shut up and un- occupied. He was almost alone there. He was found the next morning by his valet. His arms were stretched out, his hands clenched, his face was distorted; his attitude and appearance were those of a man who had died in a fit; and it was not until the doctor had made an examination that the almost invisible mark of a puncture was found on his breast.

PLANS REFORM At
Al BROWNS HOTEL
Notorious French Lick Re-
sort May Be Cleaned Up
-Taggart in Favor.

Indianapolis, Ind. April 1S.-A re
porthas reached this city to the effect
that the gambling rooms at French
Lick, which are owned by Al Brown
and leased TO Ed Ballard, are TO be
closed permanently and peaceably.
While many such reports have reach
ed here in the past. only to be proved
false, the current report is held to be
more authentic, since Thomas Tag
CART. proprietor of the French Lick
Springs hotel and grand mogul of the
valley" as the French Lick communi-
ty is commonly called, is said to be
interested in the movement to close
the place. Ballard himself who is re-
ported to have made as much money
out of the games as he will need the
remainde of his days, is also said to
have consented to the games bein dis
continued
1t is understood that Taggart is to
take an active part in closing the
games largely because his family is
much opposed TO the notoriety which
has attached to the valley" because
of the operation of the games and the
connection of the Taggart name with
them although Taggart is said not to
have had any direct interest in the
games since the Hanly raids of several
years ago when the casino on the Tag
CART hotel grounds. where the games
were carried on, was closed and the
gambler driven across the street to
the hoted built expressly for that pur
pose, by AL Brown. Brown is said
to have no interest in the games, other
than that he is the lessor of the rooms
in which they are operated
The authorities have virtually given
up hope of closing the games through
any action at law When Governor
Marshall obtained a ruling in the JEFF
fersonville poolroom cases by which
the Cumberland Telephone and Tele-
graph company was compelled to
cease delivering pOolroom information
in the state, the French Lick people,
who have been conducting a poolroom
jim connection with the games, discon-
tinued that feature of the gambling
rooms, and the pools have not been
sold since, it is said.
Governor Hanly spent thousands of
dollars in trying to suppress the
games, and succeeded only in driving
the gamesters from the old Casino to
Browns hotel, and, after several
months, in destroying several thous.
and dollars worth of gambling de-
vices.

FALLING CCCOANUTS.
Dew Makes Most Of Them Drop From
the Trees at Niaht.

the Trees at Night.
ell the tropics when the cocoanut is
wanted for planting" said an importer
Of the fruit. the nuts are picked up
when they fall from the tree where
they have hung for about fourteen
months in riper!ng. 1t is fact not
generally known that a majority Of
the nuts drop ut night. which probably
accounts for the small loss OF life by
cocoanuts falling upon the heads OF
the natives.
The action Of the heavy dew ut
night loosens the seal with which ma
ture has provided the nut and allows
it to fall. The nuts wanted for plant
ing are either gathered into heaps or
placed under sheds. where they are
allowed to sprout before planting in
order that good. healthy nuts may be
selected, thus avoiding the possibility
Of planting blind nuts that will not
spcout. in which case much time would
be lost In starting the cocoanut walks,
as the orchards are called. When holes
are dug, about three feet deep and
twenty feet apart. the nut is carefully
placed therein and covered with about
foot Of soil. The hole is filled as the
sprout grows until the latter reaches
the surface. then it is left to itself. re-
Quiring no further attention. Should
the place where the cocoanut is planted
be any great distance from the sea
shore a quantity of salt is placed in
the hole. The plant will grow in lux
uriance. however. but n short distance

GREEKS PELTED NEW
PRIEST WITH EGGS

Chicago, April 1S.-Four women and
two men We're arrested for pelting the
Rev. Surgius Bazilevitch, pastor of a
Russian Orthodox Greek Catholic
church, with unboiled eggs during the
Easter services. While the clergy
mans head was bowed in prayer. a
shower of eggs were directed at him
from the rear of the church. Half
a dozen broke against the face and
body and spread over his vestments
Police rescued the minister. who had
been dragged from the church by
members of his congregation.
The trouble was the result of a fued.
which began when the Rev Mr.. Paz-
drey, former pastor of the church,
was removed and the Rev Mr. Bazile-
witch installed in his place The con-
gregation resented this action and op-
posed the new minister.
