Museums and Collectors
Eagerly Seek Those With
Sentimental Interest

Rings-that Is to say-finger-
rings, have always exerted a dls'
tinct fascination and charm not
only on artists and collectors, but
the public in general, particularly
so if their artistic and intrinsic
values be enhanced by sentimental
or historical connections and in
terests.
Some famous rings are still In
existence. The signet OF Darius is
in the British Museum, and the
finest Etruscan ring--the Canine
one-is in the same collection, The
signet of Michael Angelo at Paris,
was formerly believed to be the
work of PyrgoteIes, and was &C.
cordingly valued at $4,000. The
ring, however, Is really the work
of P. NJ. dePischia, an italian, the
intimate friend of the great paint
err Michael Angelo.
The Soviet government of Russia
has in it's possession the ring be-
lieVed to be the espousal ring or
the Virgin Mary, with portraits OF
herself and Joseph. lnN reality
these are the portraits of two freed
men. Alpheus and Aretho. This
ring was formerly in the Russian
imperial cabinet at st. Petersburg
In the Vatican is an emerald said
to be engraved with a portrait OF
Christ. taken by order of Ponttus
plate. The article is really Of
the Italian revival period, the face
being a copy of the head OF the
Saviour in Raffaele's cartoon OF the
Miraculous Draught Of the Fishes.
The ring of the first of the bar
barian chiefs who entered and sack
ed the city of Rome is preserved.
1t is a curious carnelian, inscribed
"Alaricus, Rex Gothorum."
The wedding ring Of Cola di
Rienl is preserved in the South
Kensington Museum. 1t has star
in niello, with the names OF Nicola
and Catarina. Athelwolf's enamel
ed ring is preserved In the Brltlsn
Museum which also treasures Athel-
stan's episcopal ring &c. 500. The
ring of William of Wykeham Q367-
1404l is preserved at Winchester.
In the cathedral library at Chi
the Gnostic equivalent of the name
Jehovah" on a fine sapphire. 1t
was used by Seffrid, Bishop of Chi
chester (1189) as his episcopal Sig
net.
The ring said to have been given
by Queen Elizabeth to the Earl of
Essex, which was to serve him in
time of need, is said to be pre-
served at Hawnes, Bedfordshire,
formerly the seat of the Reverend
Lord John Thyme. 1t is said to
have descended in an unbroken
line from Lady Frances Devereaux
afterwards Duchess Of SomerseD
to it's present owner. 1t Is a sar-
donyx, on which the head OF Eliza
beth is cut. The same honor of
possession, however, is disputed by
the family of the late c. w. War
ner, whose Elizabethan ring con-
sists of a diamond of a small size
set in gold inlaid with black enamel
at the back and sides, and was
given by Charles 1 to Sir Thomas
Warner.

CRIPPLED SEER.
To BE HANGED
MAY z
Mystic, Who Forced Nephew
To Kill Mother, to Go to
Death on Clutches
By JAMES s. SHEEHY,
international News Service.

SALEM, Ore, May 1.-The grim
business of hanging will take on
fits; grimmest aspect when Arthur
Coyell, crippled mystic and student
of the occult, is put to death at the
State penitentiary here on the
morning of May %, for the murder
of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Ebba
Covell.
1t will be an actual case of a
man going into eternity on crutches.
For the bearded mystic is a help
less cripple, unable to move from
his waist down. He can neither
stand up alone nor sit up in bed;
and it will be necessary to carry
him up the thirteen steps of the
gallows and support him while the
moose is being adjusted.
On the same morning l.. w.
Peare, his hair snow-white from
seventy or more years, will be
hanged for the murder Of his wife
and a neighbor in 1928. By a
strange coincidence, the two con-
demned murderers committed their
crimes the same year and in Coos
county, Ore. And both will pay
the penalty the same day on the
same scaffold.
CoveIl, termed the arch-murderer
and p!otter, who planned to snuff
out several lives when the stars
were favorable" murdered his Sis
ter-in-Iaw through the agency OF
Alton Covell, his nephew and son
Of the dead woman. Young CoveH,
now eighteen years OF age, is serv-
ing a life sentence at Salem Penl-
tentiary.
Only by the slightest chance was
CoVen connected with the unusual
homicide, which for several days
completely mystified authorities.
The woman's body had been placed
I'm the coffin and the lid fastened.
The face was normal in color-it
was presumed that Mrs. CoVell died
of natural causes. But before
burial a woman asked permission
to place a keepsake in the cotlln.
When the coffin was opened the
face showed decided discoloration.
Physicians were called and in
vestigation revealed that death was
caused by ammonia. Doctor Fred
CoveII, the woman's husband, was
arrested and held without bail.
Suspicion was later fastened on Ar
thur Covel1, who lived with his
brother, and upon Alton Covell,
the dead woman's son.
From the lips of Lucille Covell,
fourteen-year-oId daughter of the
slain woman, came the first con-
fession.> She told how Uncle
Artie'' had planned the crime for
two or three months. She said that
the elder Covell did not like her
mother because "she never went
upstairs to see him and fused be-
cause he ate so much"
The girl, in her naive way, re-
lated how the astrologer planned
to do away with his sister-in-law.
Eleven a. M, September 8, 1928
the Venus hour" was the time APP
pointed. Alton CoveIl, completely
dominated by the crippled mystic,
placed an ammonia-soaked rag over
his mothers mouth as she worked
In the kitchen, and she died short
ly afterward.
Trapped with his nephew. Covell
made a complete confession, in
which he said Alton and Lucille
were at all times under control OF
his mind and will. He said Lucille
was absolutely innocent of any
wrongdoing; that his brother. Fred,
the woman's husband. was also
guiltness. Later he repudiated .he

he affirmed. Certainly women and

were to get ride of this sex obsession

A c. Miller, member of the

issued warning against the
use of credit, declaring that
an abundance of credit is
bad thing, and encourages
thoughtless speculation.
The R. H. Macy store, of
New York, second largest in
the United States, is doing a
strictly cash business, and has
shown an increase Of 22fo in
business this year, which will
bring its volume to about
SOS, 100000. This shows how
much the public appreciates a
