ONCE FAMOUS JOCKEY
 IS NOW DRUG VICTIM.

r Detroit, Jan. 12-Once famed as a jockey, but weakened through the use of drugs which he required to keep his weight down, he says. Charlie Brandt is in the custody of the police while investigation is being made as to how he procured sweaters, silk stockings and other things he is alleged to have been selling.
 His wife, whom he married follow ing a romance of the race track, is in the House of Correction, where she was sent two months ago after conviction on a theft charge.
 For years Brandt rode winners in the style of a jockey king. Ten years ago he met the woman who later be- came his wife. She was riding at fair in a fancy riding contest. Her horsemanship caught his eyes. She admired his skill on the track
 When weight began to come to Brandt he started using drugs to hold down the poundage that would have ended his days on the track. Then came an infringement of the rules at New Orleans and Brandt was ruled from the track

DANBURY MEN FIND DIAMONDS
 IN SEWER PIPE

Danhuyv Ian. 12.-Hunting for the proverb:a1 needle in a haystack was easy compared to the job Of two members of the public works depart
 ment had recently. The department was asked by Asher Pappish, of 16 Robinson avenue, to recover, IT pos sible, two diamond rings which through the carelessneSS or a ma1d in the household had been thrown into a toilet and entered the sewer The men figured that the rings might become lodged in the eaten baSln al the foot of Robinson avenue ana they began search They hunted for seV- era1 hours and were about to give up, believing that the rings had been carried away, when they oecloed 10 search once more. They were sue cessful in finding the most valua ble one and ring which was highly prized, not alone for it's intrinsic worth but because of its assoc1atlons
 Three rings were thrown away by the maid into the the SeoT Se~@r. cred in the trap. Before asking the public works department for assls- tancei MT. Papish had made search at the filtration plant, put W1lhoul department to be asked to do work of this sort. and when MT Paplsh told Superintendent Raynono or the value of one of the rings two men were SSEil ID dO Vgndl ter a careful search of the basin at the corner of Main street and Robin son avenue, the more valuable ring was found It had caught on a twig and held just inside the sewer pipe entering the catch basin But for that it would have dropped into the sewer and been carried away
 The three rings were wrapped n a piece of tissue papef and left on shelf. When the maid cleaned up the rooms Friday she did not examine paper swept it into the dustpan and the contents of the pan.
