the world was found by a school
boy when rummaging in the fam

"A medical man found a bat

worth many thousands of dollars
stopping up q broken window
when attending a poor woman
in . slum. A doctor Of my &C.
quaintance paid rs cents at
country sale for what proved to
be an unique bit of Greek scIIlp
ture, which he sold to the Boston
Museum for $4,000.

many paintings, historic dOcu-
mentS, pieces of silver and china,
period furniture and other val

 West was unwilling to give up hope for game, and his two spade bid was, obviously, his best choice of rcbid.
 When the dummy went down, 1t was clear that the right contract had been reached. Except against a most unfortunate trump break. the hand was good for 10 tricks two trumps and one diamond being the only losers.
 West won the first trick with the heart ace, then laid down the trump queen, nd lost, as he expected, three tricks. A game contract in no trump probably would have gone down against the almost inevitable diamond opening.
