largest cut diamonds in the world, and one
which has no rival In the interest which at
taches to its romantic and sanguinary history
The remarkable story Of this diamond, which
has been traced back by authentic records to
the year 1904, and TO which legend gives an
antiquity of even SO centuries longer, Is an
amazing revelation. It's history for over six
centuries has been verified at every step since
1t was taken from the Rajah Of Malwa In India,
through the viciSstudes Of various Eastern
dynasties, until it became the most spectacular
of the crown jewels Of England in 1850.
According to the memoirs of the Sultan
Baber, written In 1896, the gem was taken from
the aforesaid Rajah by one Ala-ed-din, him
self Sultan, as tribute The latter suisse
QuentIy presented it to Baber, who was direct
descendant of the celebrated Tamerlane and
the founder of the Mogul Empire. It remained
in the possession Of the Mogul dynasty until
1889, when India was invaded by the Persian,
Shah Nadir, during the reign of Mohamed
Shah.
For long time Nadr had coveted the jewel,
but when he seized the treasury Of Delhi the
stone was missing Great was his chagrin, and
after making every effort to ind it he finally
induced a woman of Mohamed's harem to be-
tray the secret of its whereabouts.
This woman told him that it was concealed
in the folds of the Emperor's turban, which
was never laid aside. The willy Nadir deter
mined TO gain possession of the stone and at
once set about planning a scheme toward this
end. 1t was the custom, time -honored in ORR
entail countries, and seldom omitted by princes
of equal rank, to exchange turbans on state
occasions in token of reconciliation whenever
an agreement was made. Nadir, with true
Eastern guile availed himself of this custom.
and at the ceremony which was held at Delhi
soon afterward for the purpose of reinstating
Mohamed on the throne Of his Tartar ances-
tors, he suddenly asked the unsuspecting En-
peror to exchange turbans with him in order
to cement the friendship to which they had
just sworn.
MOHAMED, thoroughly taken aback had
no time to reflect, and Nadir, taking adj
vantage of the Emperor's surprise quickly re-
moved his own national headdress, made Of
sheepskin and adorned with gems and placed
it on the head of Mohamed, meantime hav
ing dexteriously switched the Emperor's turban
TO cover his own intriguing brain. Mohamed

u Ado is still doing the pioneer work between
the United States and the east coast of

a. Telephone Co. Is preparing to lay a COM
bined telegraph and telephone cable from New
York to Rio and Buenos Aires. Two cables
span the Pacific; the Western Union has an
nounced that 1t win lay third one as soon as
the Japanese government gives it permission
to operate its own station at that end.

broadcast, all fall down when the celestial cleo
tries begin to shoot. So instead of the wireless
spelling the end Of wires, as the rash predicted
when once the world was convinced that Mar
conf had something, the wires multiply at o
faster rate than ever.
Fifteen years since De Forest brought the
wireless telephone to practical form. What has
happened to the wires since then? Six million
wire telephones in the United States In 1912
100000 in 1929. Twenty million miles of
telegraph and telephone wires In America when
the war ended, nearly so 900 900 miles now
The Atlantic and Pacific are SPAWNED today by
nearly so radio channels, but the western Union
and the Mackay systems continue to lay cables
Telegraph cable mileage has increased by half
since radio became effective.

American Revolutions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN DIEGO, Calf, February 10
Phillip c. Hanna, retired ranking con-
sui general of the United States, died
at a sanitarium here yesterday. He
had been in poor health since Novem-
Der, when he suffered a stroke of
paralysis at his home, in Waterloo,
Iowa. He was ~ years old.
Mr. Hanna entered the United States
consular service in 1891. During his
foreign service he passed through three
South American revolutions and be-
came conspicuous when on several oc-
casiOns he was backed by the United
States Navy in his efforts to protect
American interests. These efforts at
tracted the enmity of the Venezuelan
government during the time of the
Crespo revolution. and the United
States was requested to recall him. Sec
rotary Blaine replied that Mr.. Hanna's
work was satisfactory to the United
States and that he would remain until
the close of the outbreak.
His work that followed the Monterey
and New Mexico flood disasters of 1909
won him the thanks of President Taft,
the board of directors of the Ameri-
can Red Cross and Mexican Red Cross
and the governors and, Legislatures of
two Mexican states.
After the landing of United States
troops at Vera Cruz in 1914 he was
made q prisoner of war by Huertistas
and was accused of sympathizing with
the revolutionists. He was left in the
statehouse when Huerta troops evac-
uated Monterey.
Besides being prominent in interna-
tional affairs. Mr.. Hanna was lee
turer on Latin American and interna-
tional subjects. He was member of
the Waterloo Rotary Club and an hon.
orary member of the c. A. r.
Mr.. Hanna is survived by a niece
and two sisters, all residents Of this
city.
Funeral services will be held In
Waterloo. Iowa, next Sunday.

ANCHORAGE LIGHT,
 POWER RATES GUT

Anchorage consumers of electric energy are to be given reduction in rates as the result of action talk Ien at a special meeting of the municipal council. The new tariff provides for a rate of 13 cents per kilowatt hour for the first 100 kilo- watt hours; which is reduction of two cents; and the rate for all energy consumed over that amount will be 10 cents, which likewise is two cents under the present rate.
 Electric power, which now costs consumers 10 cents per kiloWatt hour, will be reduced to six cents under the new arrangement. The rate for electric energy for cooking and heating in homes was pre- viously fixed by the council at one cent per kilowatt hour above the cost of such energy to the city, which will make the cost to con- SumerS three and one-half cents per kiloWatt hour, which is the same rate as Seattle consumers pay, up to a stated amount.
