Antiquated Vehicle Rattles Into

Into the realm of twice-told tales
now enters that Of New York's last
horse car.
About a month ago the operating de-
partment of the New York Railways
Company, which presumably knows
what cars run or cease to run over
it's lines, was sponsor for story that
the last horse car had made its final
trip. The car which rumbled across
town early one Sunday morning was

but within a day or two horse car
appeared once more on Bleecker Street.
II NAV have been belief by the
company that the last few horse cars
could stand a few more trips without
collapsing which caused the change in
plan. 1t may have been sentimental
ealing that the fitting time for the
| borse cars passing had not yet come.

Tom Mortimer, driver of horse, cars
for more than forty years, took the
reins for the last time. 1t was Tom
who urged the tagging team into the

a few minutes the officials had gone

Liberty Loan Nearly Paid
u. S. Has Yet to Receive Only
About S3l5,OOO,O00 in Cash

Washington, July 26.-of the bal
ance due on the Liberty Loan in the
three instalments yet to be paid the
government will receive only about 10
to IS per cent, or approximately s9l5,-
600 600 to 1925 100000 in actual cash.
The entire remainder already has been
paid either in cash or upon Treasury
certificates Of Indebtedness. which are
payable in lieu of cash on the bonds.
OF the s2,0OO,OOO,OOO realized from
the sale of the bonds s1,3S5, 100000 was
paid in cash and certificates on June
80, leaving balance due by subscrib-
ers Of S6l5,000,000. This sum, however,
will not all be paid in cash, as there
are outstanding approximately $780,
100000 of certificates, issued in antici-
patton of the bond issue, which may be
converted into bonds. The consensus
Of opinion is that the entire outstand-
ing issues Of certificates will be con-
verted into bonds, leaving an actual
cash balance due the government OF
approximately S3l5,000,00o.

Thanks Navy for Sympathy
Mrs. Reinhardt marvels, however, at
the sympathy that the Navy Depart
ment has expressed to her.
They've been so good" she said
gratefully. They're busy officials, but
they don't forget the human side of
war"
A copy Of the address made over
young Reinhardt's grave by NJ. Pinot,
Mayor of Bauillac, was sent to the
boys mother by Lieutenant F. C. Har-
Ian, United States Navy, and is one of
Mrs. Reinhardt's most cherished pos
sessions.
Leaving America to aid France in
her struggle against the barbarians,"
said the Mayor, in closing, you have
made in advance the sacrifice Of your
life, and it is this sacrifice for liberty,
this life offered TO France, which gives
you the right TO rest peacefully, as in
your own country, in the friendly land
upon which, alas! you had but cast a
glance"

Johns Hopkins, Last Public
Beneficiary, Agrees to
Accept 100000
Family Divides Million
Diamond Jim" Used Gems to
Get Business in Making
$4,OOO,OOO Fortune

Owing TO the need which hospitals
now have for funds, because of the
war, the executors of the estate of
James Buchanan Brady, L"Diamond
Jim,"l have decided to settel at once
the contest over his will by making a
liberal award to the contestants.
Notice was filed in the Surrogates'
Court yesterday that the three con-
testants would withdraw their objec-
tions to the probate of the will, and
Surrogate Cohalan will hold the neces-
sary proceedings, probably tomorrow,
for the formal admission of the instru-
ment to probate. The last of the public
beaefciaries to approve the war meas
ure settlement was Johns Hopkins Hos
pital, which is to receive 100000 from
the estate, valued at between s3,0OO,-
900 and 100000. Under he will
the residuary estate, amounting to
more than 100000, was to go to the
New York Hospital Exactly how much
it will receive by the settlement is not
stated.
The three contestants with whom
settlement will be made are Daniel NJ.
Brady, a brother Of Diamond jim
Mrs. Matte Matthew, sister. and Mrs.
Mary McGee, a half-niece. The brother
received only 800 by the will and Mrs
Matthew the life income from S25,OOO'
Mrs. McGee Proved Her Right
No provision was made for Mrs. Nc
Gee. whose asserted relationship was
not acknowledged by the Brady family.
Mrs. McGee proved that she was the
daughter Of halfsister Of James b.
Brady. Her claim has been accepted,
and she will share in the settlement
II was stated the three contestants
would divide less than S1,O00,OOO, but
what portion each will receive was not
ntimated.
The executors decided, with the CON
sent of the legatees, that 1t would De
better TO settle with the contestants
rather than have a long-drawn-out ana
extensive litigation The need OF the
hospitals also swayed the executors III
their determination to settle.
Gems Used for Business
The contestants alleged that "Dia-
mond jim" was not Of sound mind, and
intended to dwell in the trial on his
extravagant display Of gems. 1t was
learned yesterday the executors. were
prepared to combat this alleged sign OF
eccentricity with the story OF now the
famous collector of brilliants formed
his strange habit, and that originally
il was a matter of hard-headed bust
ness with him. Their story was that
when Diamond jim" went into the
railway supply business he wanted TO
advertise himself without having to pay

monds and other precious stones. He
got the advertising and kept, IN the
form Of valuable jewelry, the price 1t
cost to obtain it.
Much of his jewelry is worth more
today than it was when he bought it
