OF an Indian rajah brought to England by some mighty
lord. Anyway it became known as the 7 abor diamond,
when Senator H. A. W. Tabor of Colorado, brought il
to this country.
A few months ago it was sold to Pacific coast movie
masnate who figured that diamonds were to be won and

bandits who stripped him Of his eght-carat ring and his
other possessions and drove away in his nice shiny roadster

taking home
Next morning the roadster was found with burst tire
in the suburbs and litter Of sacks and packages and lunch
crumbs in the, showed that the bandits had feased
And by chance dustng out the DEBRIS the big diamond
was found. Evidently the highwaymen had decided it
was too big to be anything but glass and had thrown it
aside; ham sandwich and half dozen fresh doushnus
came nearer filling the void
