to the institution. The presentation
in behalf of the donors was made by
Rabbi Charles A. Blumenthal, for
merly Of Fort Worth, and now field
secretary of the ]. C. R. s., with
headquarters at Philadelphia.
Rabbi Blumenthal said in part: ~
have the honor and great pleasure to
be delegated by my good and noble
friends, Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Sigel, Of
Dallas, Texas, to present to your
worthy institution a room with two
beds, by which you may be enabled to
further your noble work of mercy and
alienation of human sufferings. Ac-
cording to the Jewish law, the mes
senger Of one has the power Of his
sender, hut in this case / feel that l
can do more justice to the occasion
than my friend himself, for had he
been here in person, he would have
been too modest to speak for himself.
I believe it will be a source Of pleas
ure for you to learn that Mr.. Sigel is
one Of those whose sympathy for the
distressed is keeping pace with the
growth Of his fortune. In keeping
with the Jewish tradition that the
Divine Presence is in the sick room,
Mr.. Sigel housed the Divine Presence
on the same day he gave new home
10 his dear family. Now, to you,
noble friends, officers of the j. c. R.
s., ! take the liberty Of bringing
greetings from your numerous friends
in Texas, that their heart is with
you and your great work. Your re-
ward will be according to your hard
ships you have had to combat with
during the past sixteen years. Your
names will be blessing on the lips Of
thousands and inscribed on the annals
Of human sympathy forever. In the
presence of the disaster that befell
you and destroyed part Of your hard
work, / may say with the prophet,
Fir trees were cut down; with cedars
shall we replant them; bricks have
crumbled, hewed stones will replace
them Be strong and courageous, for
tens Of thousands Of hearts beat in
unison, in sympathy with your insti-
tution-our institution. May this
place be guided and guarded by our
Father of Mercy. May his divine
presence bring heahhg to the suffer-
ing and restore them to their homes
sound in body and encouraged in
spirit. Amen"
DR.. Philip Hillkowitz, president Of
the ]. C. r. s., formally accepted the
endowment Of the room in behalf Of
the Board Of Trustees.
The munifcent gift Of the Siegels
came as cheering consolation to the
society after the disastrous fire which
burned their infrmary building and
for which the j. C. R. s. Is now con-
Quoting nationwide drive Of a
quarter million dollars to replace the
loss an increase the capacity Of this
worthy institution.

CHARGES STEAM ROLLER
IS HELPING LOWDEN

CHICAGO, June 6-The tension along
candidate row was increased by Senator
Moses statement charging the repub-
lican national committee with using the
steam roller to help Lowden get the
nomination.
Gen Wood, in whose favor the Moses
statement apparently was issued, later
declared he was "loath to believe" that
"at this critical point in the nations his
tory any selfish or political interest
would be permitted to outweigh those Of
the public good" and that be believed
Chairman Hays was absolutely fair in
handling the delegation contests which
were the object Of Moses attack
Moses statement said that the steam
roller of 1912 had not been scrapped but
that new attachments had been added to
it and that 1t was again in working
order. He charged the republican ma
tional committee favored Lowden and
that an attempt WAS being made by seat
ing Lowden delegates to equalize the
Wood and Lowden strength.
Moses also said that the Wood strength
plus the johnson strength could control
the convention and the national commit
tee making coalition inevitable
Lowden, recovering from illness. was
advised By physicians to take things easy.
He expects to leave Chicago Sunday or
Monday to remain away during the con-
vention.

New Diamond Mine
Rich in Promises

CHICAGO. June 5-Ten thousand peo-
pie. Including many women, pegged
claims in the new diamond fields at
Taungs in Bechuanaland, South Africa,
on opening day, according to a cable
dispatch.
The district is 100 miles north Of Kim
berley, In "a waterless, treeless, game
less desert" Reports Of it's wonderful
riches became rife when diamonds were
found there several months ago. For
tune hunters and adventurers focked to
the scene from all over South Africa.
When the governments opening
proclamation was read the crowd was
massed behind a flag line. 4 revolver
shot started the race. The mob burst
across the sands in mad scramble.
Men seemed to go suddenly insane.
They fought and clawed and knocked
each other down, while those behind
trampled over the fallen. Some had
hired professional sprinters to do their
running. One Of these stumbled and
impaled himself upon an iron spike. He
died unattended and unnoticed and the
gamble Of claim stalking went on about
his corpse.
NO diamond neld was ever e1plolteo
at more opportune time for quick
riches. A bonanza market awaits all
the diamonds found with an Unsuitable
world demand at the highest prices in
history. Digging began a few hours
after the stampede was over, but no re-
ports Of success or failure so far have
reached the outside world. The next
few weeks will tell the tale The
Bechuanaland desert may prove false
alarm or a new Golconda.

Asks Lord Mayor
Tip on Good Tailor

LONDON, June 5.-To ask the lord
mayor of London to recommend tailor
is something that the average Britisher
looks upon as Father bad form" How
ever, H. J. Holmes of 1908 North Wilson
avenue, Pasadena, Cal, has ventured to
do this and only the fact that 1t is taken
as "typically American" has caused 1t TO
be viewed in humorous light.
Holmes wrote the lord mayor a letter
stating that the American public was
being victimized by tailors and request
ing informa ton as to the best firm IN
England from whom he could purchase
clothes at a reasonable price. He added
that If he received satisfaction he could
assure the tailor hundreds of orders from
the United States
The. lord mayor passed the letter on
to a firm Of Strand tailors-one Of the
firms which are making an effort just
now to show that suits can be manu-.
featured at reasonble prices. The firm.
Of course, placed the letter of Holmes,
and the one from the lord mayor In it =
window and it is safe to bet that Holmel$
name is known to more Londoners than
he even knew existed
Whether the tailors have presented
Holmes with a free suit in recognition
of the advertising of his stunt" could
not be ascertained, but it is probable
that he Will soon brighten up Pasadena
with one of the latest examples of Brit
ish tailoring.

Vile
MOTION TO DISMISS
METNERT CHARGES FAILS.
Attorney Ira Holmes made an effort to
obtain the dismissal of the charges
against Meinert after the close of the
states witnesses.
The court did discharge Frank Kemp
and Adrian VanCleave, former Jail en-
pIoyes, at the close of the states evil
dence.
Attorney Holmes maintained that Mein-
ert could not be found guilty Of keeping
and maintaining room at the Jail for
gambling because "Meinert did not keep
the room the room kept Meinert."
Holmes argued that Meinert had no
control over those who entered the cell
room at the Jail where the poker games
were in progress and for that reason was
not responsible
In other words, Holmes indicated that
the state had failed to indict Meinert
under the proper statute to meet the eyi-
dence as introduced by the state.
DO NOT INTRODUCE
ALL OF WITNESSES.
The court IN overruling a motion to
discharge Meinert agreed with Prosecutor
Clarls Adams that when man PRE-
sides" over table to be used for gam
ing purposes takes the ''rakeon,' ar
ranges the table and invites men to play
he would come under the operating stat
ute and Is held TO make defense.
The collapse OF the states evidence
against Kemp and VanCleave was appar-
ent the minute that Prosecutor Adams
suddenly terminated the states evidence
without Introducing all of his witnesses
The court. In dismisslng the charges
against NanCleave and Kemp, said
The only evidence against VanCleave
is the statement made by witness thinner
when thinner entered the jail with FIVE
decks OF playing cards and was told by
NanCaeave that thinner did not need the
cards as there was a poker game going
on every night
There Is no doubt that there was gam
bling going on in the jail and the evil
dence shows that Meinert prepared III,
table and invited the men to play, ac-
cordiny 10 the evidence
EVIDENCE FOUND
FAULTY BY JUDGE
All Of the witnesses seem 10 have
the understanding that they should keep
the knowledge of the games from thes,
two defendants.
The court is of the opinion that there
is uo direct evidence that the deputy
sherins knew that gambling was going
on or that they had any part in oper-
ating the game
As far rs Kemp is concerned can't
find any evidence directly connecting
him with any knowledge Of the game
