FRENCH TAPESTRIES
SOLD TO JOHN D., JR.
ART TREASURES, WHOSE DIS
APPEARANCE CAUSED PARIS
TO FRET, WOVEN IN 1850.

NEW YORK, n. "a set of six
famous Gothic tapestries, whose dis
appearance from France aroused a
storm of criticism there few weeks
ago. has been bought by John d.
Rockefeller ir.. it Was learned today.
Although Welles Bosworth, architect,
a representative OF Mr.. Rockefeller,
refused to reveal the terms OF the sale,
it was reported the tapestries had
brought $1,000,000.
The tapestries, representing The
Hunt OF the Unicorn" were woven
about 1850 for the Duke de la Roche
foucauld. They hung for centuries in
the Castle of Nerteuil and were re-
garded as almost priceless works OF
art 1t was believed that the Count
Gabriel de la Rochefoucauld, wealthy
man, had promised they would never
be allowed to leave France.
Last November the set was brought
here by Edonard Larcade, vice presi-
dent Of the Chambre Syndicate de la
Curiosite ct des Beaux Arts, OF Paris.
The tapestries were exhibited private
w at the Anderson art galleries for
three days and it was predicted they
would be bought by an American col
leCtOr.
Paris Press Protested.
Immediately after the exhibition M.
Larcade returned to France. Nothing
more was heard OF the tapestries I'M
til a few weeks ago, when French
newspapers asked the Minister OF Fine
Arts to ascertain whether they were
still in France The newspaper Bon
Soir intimated that more than $1,000
900 had been offered for the set and
said this was not sufficient reason Tor

GAMBLING RAMPANT
AT PALM BEACH
READY CASH ONLY REQUI-
SITE FOR PLACE AT TABLES
OF EXCLUSIVE CLUBS"

PALM BEACH, Fla.-Although
Palm Beach scintillates day and night
with brilliant gowns and jewels and
beautiful women, the feature OF the
resort that gives it truly continental
flavor just now is the gambling. This
is carried on without interference in
a club located a stones throw from
the Royal Poinciana hotel
A little ready cash and entree are
the only requisites Tor a place at the
gambling tables. 1t is not necessary
to be a member OF the club, 1t is only
necessary to be escorted by member
to gain admittance to KS. In the al
ternoon after and at night from 10
until this place is damned with sun
burned men in dinner coats and beau
tifully gowned women playing hazard
on roulette. Hundred dollar bills are
flung about more recklessly than pen
MES in a kids crap game. At the
height of the gayety it is impossible
TO get near the tables, on which there
are four for roulette and two for haz-
ard Three hundred persons are ire
quently packed into small arena-like
room, where the playing goes lever
ishly forward.
Hundreds Participate.
On a Saturday it is not unusual for
nearly 1000 persons to visit the rem
devious during the night. The air be-
comes sitting, the faces OF the players
are strained with anxiety as they risk
more and more on the turn of wheel.
From the exterior KS resembles
church and is frequently mistaken for
a sacred edihce by new arrivals at
Palm Beach.
Within, KS is simply furnished,
with none of the bizarre effects one
generally associates with the gambling
den of millionaires.
The floors have green plush carpets.
The general effect is one of southern
hospitality with a color scheme of
green and white, and yet within these
modest confines it is said $500000 will
be taken in by the house this win

uary 1st until the middle of March.

hell hole of iniquity." He induced
the ministers association to send a
letter to the governor, protesting
against the practice. Nothing ever
came of it.

hog breeding industry of the county.
Considering the quality of the pro-
duct that is being produced by these
breeders it is certainly due to state
here that they should be entitled to
their share of sales in other portions
of the state when pure bred breeders
are selecting their breeding stock.
Perhaps it is rather far fetched to
predict that the future shipments of
cattle from Montana, instead of being
listed at the stock yards as grassers,
will be labeled corn fed, and will be
continuously topping the market.
This at least might come within the
realm of possibilities.
This is the brief story of the live
stock industry of Blaine county. Pos
sibilities have been demonstrated by
the hard work of boys and girls
clubs with the able assistance of the
county agents and club leaders,
whose influence is radiating through
out every portion of the county and
is tending to place Blaine county in
the forefront of the counties of the

---.s.------------ MIME. CURIE'S PENSION
Discoyerer Of Radium Is Paid Only
 12.5OO Francs a Year

Mime. Curie, to whom the French government is awarding a pension of 12,50O francs (normally s2,S75) a year, has at times found it a struggle to keep her radium institute going. Until recently her official allowance was only 12.000 francs year. though her coal bill alone came to 5000 francs. She was hampered, too. in her experiments by an Inadequate stock of radium. This, fortunately was augmented in her visit to the United States, in 1921, when she re- ceived at theh ands of President Harding a gramme of radium pre- scented to her by the women of Amer iea.
 Mime. Curie was once the victim of a strange rebuff in London. Soon after the discovery of dadium a Brit ish scientific society decided to honor Professor Curie and his wife. They both accepted the invitation to Lon don, but It was discovered at the last minute that the rules of the society prohibited women being present at it's meetings. So Professor Curie was alone permitted to enter the cham ber to hear the presidents eulogy of his wife, the actual discoverer of ra- dium, who had to remain outside.- Manchester Guardian.
