Hidden Treasure Fund
The recent discovery of treasure
valued at $2.500.000 in the Moscow

merely an indication of what is in

ties, he turned his attention to busl-
ness. AS he became permanently
located various gypsies began to
mail him letters to be forwarded,
until finally nearly every tribe in
the world uses his store as CEN

Wife Knows Them, Too
Mrs. Cole, too, is known to the
gypsies. Several years ago the
tribes decided to elect an outsider,
or 'gorgio man. as q sort of ad-
ministrator. Since Cole was, by
adoption, one of them, he could no,
be chosen, so they asked his wife
TO serve.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Cole are an

wandering tribesmen.

too many of their own. I've lent

Fond of Ornaments
The gypsies' fondness for orna-
ments leads them to carry most of
their wealth on their persons, in
the shape of iewelry or as gold
coins attached to the clothing.
Gvpsies are very religious, the
Coles sav. usually adoptinp the re-
ligion of the country they spend
most of their time in. Thus the
English gypsies are Episcopalian.,
Spanish gypsies are Catholics and
Turkish gypsies are Mohammedans.
The Coles have enough pictures
and trinkets of gypsy frierds to

WRONG PHONE NUMBER
WORRIES C. w. OVVINGS

Through an error, the telephone
directory gives private exchange
to Charles w. Owings. Of 1908 North
Capitol street. but the honor is more
than offset by the annoyance caused
him and his friends by the fact
that calling hiatt number will not
get him.
His telephone is listed as Capitol
1866, but operators believe that any
one asking for that number wants
the Capitol Building, or has i'm
bibed too freely to read Alright.
The matter is usually put up to
Chief Operator or Information. who
sustains the operator and soothes
the irate caller by saying the num-
Der should read Potomac 1866.

ARREST 125 Jewellers
IN SIX-ROOM HOUSE

Babylonian revels by 125 colored
people at 1929 Sixth street north
west SO annoyed neighbors last
night that report was sent to
Police Headquarters and the Second
precinct that a man had been shot
in the house and that the presence
of police was urgently needed.
It was only a six-room house
and when Detectives O'Dea and
Cullinane arrived to investigate the
murder report they could hardly
get in-so packed were the rooms.
When the report was found to be
false it was decided that Detectives
Christensen and Davis, of the
Second precinct, should lock up the
proprietress, Lilly Davis, colored,
and charge her with running Il
disorderly house.
Eight patrol wagons were re-
auired to transfer the jewellers from
the bright lights of the house of
celebration to the dim precincts of
the police station. A few were
charged with disorderly conduct
and the rest were allowed to go
home.
