The efficiency of the Public Serv-

In the catacombs of Rome we find
the lily portrayed on the tombs of
Christian maidens. And it is used
constantly in the religious paintings
of the middle ages to typify purity,
love and mercy. The final judgment
scene is given with the judge holding
in one hand the sword of wrath and
in the other but a single white lily.
The religious significance of the flower
travelled far; for even in distant Per-
STA the tall white lily is called to this
day "Goole Miriam" or Flower of
Mary"
The almost universal Importance
and significance of the lily made it a
favorite emblem among the different
fraternal orders of medieval society.
1t was therefore quite natural and in
keeping that Louis TX, of France, in
instituting a new and favorite order
of knighthood should decree that its
members wear a chain of broom flow
ers entwined with white lilies, thereby
signifying humility and purity.
Eventually, however, the powerful
House of Bourbon took the lily as it's
own peculiar flower of heraldry and
others had to forego its use.
The lily is the native flower of Siam.
Its cultivation is the one industry of
Bermuda. It likes a peaty soil and
plenty of leaf mold. AS lilies are easy
to grow, thankful for attention, beau.
tiful in their Towering, and of infinite
variety, they will always be second
only to the rose in the hearts of low
ers of flowers.

CHAPTER II.


NsPEcToR MARTIN MCGEE, the
middle-aged, solid executive Oh
! the New York detectives, sat IN
his businesslike Office running over
the reports of the Hanska murder,
now less than calendar day old, out
already the subject of those innumer-
able extras which the newsboys were
shouting under his windows. Nothing
in the formal documents before him
served to give him any new light.
Thomas North, advertising agent at
present locked up to await eXamina-
ton, had announced discovery OF the
murder. When he made the an
nouncement he was spotted ana
daubed with blood. Captain Hanska
had then been dead at least an hour.
For the period in which Hanska must
have died, North proved a perfect
alibi-unless the landlady or North's
companions at the annual smoker of
the Carekillers had lied to the de-
tectives. Lawrence Wade-that looked
like the man. Wade was missing
from the Curfew Club when the police
arrived however. through the good
memories of a taxicab driver and
ticket seller he had been traced to
Boston and there arrested in the very
act of engaging European passage.
Wade had visited Hanska at about
the time of the murder-"as shown by
the condition of the body" Wade ad-
mitted that fact. st was there on
business for friend" he said
Pressed to explain why he had made
such a sudden trip out of town, he
declined to answer. He knew his
legal rights-he was a lawyer, it APP
peared-and he would give no further
explanation. Lawrence Wade it must
be-unless this proved an inside
job" The windows of Captain
Hanska's room were both fastened
when North discovered the murder
but his outer door. leading into the
hall, was unlocked There were no
signs of any entrance by the front
door or the basement door. By night
Wade and North must go on the car
pet for a little touch of the third de-
gree. Inspector MCGEE was a firm
believer in that same third degree.
Lecoq tactics he distrusted, with the
distrust of a narrow man for the
other mans weapons.
But the formal documents in the
Hanska case interested Inspector Nc
Gee less, a great deal less, than an
informal verbal report made that

an order from you telling us to keep
our hooks off her. Forgot the name

Inspector MCGEE understood at
once. and the information brought a
little thrill. He had given only two

other was held by man. So Resale

Boost for Public Service.

To the Editor of the Evening Star;
I'VE have fallen upon evil times
and the world has waxed very old
and wicked. Politics are very cor
rupt. Children are no longer respect
full to their parents
This quotation is not from the
lucubrations of a twentieth century
pessimist, but is chargeable to the
dark brown taste in the mouth of a

thousand years ago, or to be more
exact three thousand eight hundred
and fifty years before Christ, and is
inscribed on a stone preserved among
other antiquities in a museum in
Constantinople From the year one
to date fault-fnding has always been
an easy role, and yet it is very doubt
full whether the percentage or grunt-

Old sinners who flag superfluous on
the STAGE undoubtedly find much
solace in rolling such doleful pabulum
about their toothless gums.
That all wickedness has not de-
parted from the world and that there
are still corrupt politicians and dis
respectful children is as true today
as it was in the beginning of things,
but nevertheless there is goodness in
abundance and variety, honest and
patriotic politicians and children

Extent of Diamond Deposits
Discovered in Arkansas

Diamonds were first discovered in
Arkansas August |, 1906, near the
mouth of Prairie creek, in the vi
cinity of Murfreesboro, Pike county,
and since that time approximately
1875 stones, aggregating $50 carats,
are reported to have been found in
this locality.
The diamonds in Arkansas occur in
a rock known as peridotite, and for
this reason search for further areas
of the rock has been made This
search has resulted in the finding OF
three new areas, the known extent of
which is much smaller than that near
Murfreesboro. They lie within an
area of one square mile, about three
miles from Murfreesboro,
-Four diamonds of good quality are
said to have been picked ND on the
surface, the largest weighing four
carats. Further development work to
ascertain the extent of the peridotite
is now under way.
On another tract, where a little
washing for diamonds has been done
in a crude way without machinery,
twenty diamonds have been recoV-
ered.-St Louis Times
