The secret sale of two necklaces
owned by the late Mrs. Edith
Rockefeller Mccormick and once
valued at two million dollars, to
an unknown purchaser for $780,
900, was revealed today. Even
the name of the New York broker
through whom the sale was con-
sumated, was left out Of the pro-
bate court records.
In addition to the necklaces, the
same purchaser, reported to be a
wealthy New Yorker, purchased a
diamond bracelet from the estate
for $40,500. One necklace con-
tanned five large emeralds, 16
rose-cut diamonds, and 1855 smaller
diamonds. The other consisted of
% large pearls, 81 large diamonds
cut in various designs, and 100
smaller diamonds.
A third necklace, consisting Of
10 large emeralds and 1857 dia-
monds and valued at one million
dollars, has been turned over to
the same New York broker for
sale, it was learned.
Sale of the jewelry contributed
the largest part of the 100000
cash realinzed in the sale of prop
erty from the estate of John D.
Rockefeller's daughter during the
past year. Claims against the
estate total more than 5000. 900.

GRABBED FROM
TWO WOMEN

Holdup men were again active
here last night, and two women
reported their pocketbooks
snatched. One Of the women told
police she was seized by the purse
snatcher.
William Lyddane, Of 443 Irving
st. N. w., manager Of the ship
ping department Of the Merchants
Transfer and Storage Company,
scattered a money drawer and its
contents on the floor Of his office,
900 E st. N. W., when two masked
colored holdup men entered his
office last night.
While Mr.. Lyddane and two
colored porters stood with their
hands in the air the holdup men
grabbed up a package Of money
and escaped. They did not take
time to gather UP the money on
the floor, but obtained more than
5000.
Gas Station Robbed
The other colored men held up
William S. Madison, 2207 First
st. N. W., in the gasoline station
he manages at North Capitol and
Decatur Streets, and escaped In
an automobile with $50.
A colored man who earlier had
purchased ice cream returned to
the High ice cream store at 723la
Eighth st. S. E., last night, held
I'D Rennie Quarles, the manager,
and obtained about SIS from the
money drawer.
John L. Williams, 2426 Shannon

Attracts Interest

Their food must be alive. Hence,
myriads Of shining minnoWs are
sacrificed on the altar Of their
greed. Unwhimpering, they are
tossed into the pike perch tank
until their vicious nemeses are
stated.
Eels, those viperish gluttons,
half snake, half fish, need no spe.
cial food. They'll eat almost any
thing thrown into their tank, In.
Guiding each other. Writing and
crowding, these incorrigibles at
meal time resemble Pennsylvania

Some Fish FusSy
Then there are the gars, with
their long, pointed shouts. They
eat sidewise, gliding by the side

wheeling. A gulp, and it's gone!
their length out of the water. that
they might swallow the food be-
fore they land; the shovel-nosed
surgeons, gliding lazily along the
bottom of their tanks and sucking
up their food as they go; the
trout family, fully as agile as their
salmon neighbors, matching the
latter, leap for leap, all display
their native dining habits.
Fish are fed until they will eat
no more. Not so prone to heat
prostrations as the humans who
come to see them, they eat their
heaviest during the hot summer
months.
