FAMOUS MYSTERY OF THEFT OF CROWN JEWELS IN 1907 RE- CALLED BY RECENT EVENTS Among the papers that were de- stroyed by the British officials before Dublin Castle was handed over to the Irish Free State is it possible there could have been any referring to the famous mystery of the theft of the crown jewels in 1907? It is iiossible, for no doubt -the documents that were burnt were not exclusively those ,that were useless, but that many were given to the flames be- causd the publication of their con- tents might provoke scandal. The theft of the jewels remains one of the most peculiar and baffling crimes of many years, on account of the Intrinsic and historical value of the booty, the prominence of those m - volved and the , impentrable mys- tery that has sun -out -Med the affair. In the past fourteen years not a brace of the jewels has been found, nor has 9 there been any public acknowledgement of a clue having been discovered, though powerful influences and funds were devoted to the case. The missing jewels were sent to Dublin Castle in 1830 by King William in order that they might be used ase regalia for the investiture of New Knights of St. Patrick. They consisted of a diamond badge and a 4arge diamond star, said to have •had a money vaalue of a quarter of a million dollars. They were in the official custody of the Ulster King at Arms, a high functionary of the Viceroy's establishment. At the ebbe of the robbery the Ulster King at Arms was Sir Arthur Vicars, He had "wen distinction by his genealogi- cal investigations, was a member of several smart London clubs and mov- ed in the highest circles. When he was appointed in 1893 the choice was generally approved, though he was a young man and unmarried. The jewels were kept in an old- fashioned safe in an office which was occupied by two clerks in the day time and by nobody at night. The safe was opened with a ponderous ,key, which remained in the possession of Sir Arthur. So far as is known, there was no duplicate bf it The -fact that the jewels were miss- ing from the safe was made in July, 1907, just a year after Lord Aberdeen had .been made Lord Lieutenant, and his family, including his son, ,Lord Hasido, and his bride, installed in the castle. Preparations were going for- ward for the investiture of Lord•Cas- kledown as a' Knight of St. Patrick ,and an examination of the safe show- ed he - ed that the jewels were gone. Sir Arthur was not charged with having Jtaken them, but as he was responsible he was acoused of baying neglected proper precautions and was asked for This resignation. He refused to give it and appealed . to Ring Edward to order an investigation. Some months later, he was informed by the Secre- ,itary of. State for Ireland that as the King :had decided to make a different disposition hof the office of Ulster King at Arms, he could no longer be con- sidered the incumbent. -That is .to say, he was dismissed in disgrace. He offered..a thousand pounds for in- formation as to the :whereabouts or the jewels- and retired into, private life, deeoting himseif, .'twee suppos- ed, to an effort to solve the mystery.' His troubled were by• no means over, for he was made thevictim of arimuendoes in the .less aerepulous •owspapers and received a stream of hrionymons letters, which made grave =a'e#,lectionst not only upon hits own cotes Seat,(but upon that of members iof itite viceregal family. )His detectWes ileac ottaab% to trace these •letters, and this 4- y, /VW; eo'-ealled ltd" te\Malns hidden.

The newspaper publisher tried to justify 'his statement by naming persons, the thief being a woman call- ed Molly, and the known es Mtge. Robinson. She was said to have e assisted to Paris by Sir Arthur. The jury gave Sir Arthur heavy damages, for the publisher had failed to prove a single statement. Armed with this partial vindicatioon�, SIr Arthur ap- pealed to King Ordorge to ahold an in-, vestigation, but.His. ;Majesty showed no more Interest than had been shown by his -father. In 1917 Sir Arthur found some assuagement of his trou- bles in marriage. He died last April, Still under a cloud officially. It seems unlikely at this late date that the mystery will be solved. Possibly the truth will crop out in some spicy memoirs a half century hence. PAIN IN HER ARM IS NOW ALL GONE MRS. STANTON RECOMMENDS DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS. Woodstock Lady whose Rheumatism has Vanished Tells .Why She Believes in Dodd's Kidney Pills. Woodstook, Ont., March 13th. (Speciall.—Mrs. John Stanton who lives on R. R. 1, near here, is never tired of telling of the benefits she re- ceived from bhe use of Dodd's Kid- ney Pills.. About four years ago I •had rheu- matism in my left arm," Mrs. Stan- ton states. "It was so painful I couldn't dress myself." "I read about Dodd's Kidney Pills and what they had done for others, so I sent and got six boxes. They did , me good right from the start. The I pain in now gone, but I keep Dodd's Kidney Pills in the house as I have an occasional touch of lumbago and they help it a lot. They help any husband's head too." Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best known and most reliable of kidney remedies. They heal the kidneys. Sound kidneys strain all the uric aoid, the cause of rheumatism, out of the blood.

He then makes It clear that there Is only partial withdrawal of attev tion from reality in sleep, whereas insanity means almost complete withdrawal so the afflicted one may live in his fulfilled wish dreams, dur- ing waking hours. The insane sleep little, Mr. I'ridon goes on: "We are as we see ourselves In our dreams. Dreams reveal to us what our unconscious cravings are, and these are symptoms of our atti- tude toward life. We spend a part of the night, if not the entire night. seeking solutions for Problems of the day." ./ There are 'dreams, he continues, of wish fulfillment by which the dreari- er realizes desires simply and natur- eally, as children attain to their sleep visions of pleasure dented them in I waking hours. • i Trainee) (leaders. When you are reading a book are you a skimmer, a skipper, a brows- ' er, a borer, a gobbler or a taster? Or do you present some other vari- ant of the inexhr.ustible gannet of the art of reading? Your classification in this respect will govern your an- swer to the following question, de- • hated the other night by a company of book lovers: I "How' long does it take to read a hook?" Well, there are books that can be read overnight—detective stories for choice—and thore are other books that demand more respectful treat- ment. But one of the curious Prin- ciples brought to light by the book - :overs who dt•batcd the question was +.hat\•a heavy, serious work — an onus, so to speak-- may gobbled nat. as quickly as a love tale of Harold hell Wright by one who has had the ncce•ssa ry training. One of the debaters related, for instance, that he had seen the late Dr. William Rainey Harper, presi- dent of the 1'niversily of Chicago, accomplishing his systematic reading at a devouring speed that would be- wilder the brain of the. uneducated. His darting r;:os embraced a page at ,011e sweep, and the leaves flipped ever rhythmically every second or two. Dr. Harper explained, in response to an astonished comment that he had trained•himself to grasp the con- tent of page after page in that man- ner, especially when the book dealt with some acadk4iic or philosophic subject with which he was familiar, and that when he arrived at vital Passages presenting something new and important in the way of state- ment, deduction or argument his pace would slow down whtle his mind absorbed the author's thought.

The pain of rheumatism is some- thing you cannot rub out. Every suf- ferer from rheumatism has been ad- vised to rub this liniment or that on the affected part, but after all the rubbing the 'pain remained. Rubbing did not cure it and can't cure it. Thin blood and rheumatism come together and if they are properly treated they will go together. Rheu- matism is in the blood ---in poor wat- ery blood. Soanetimes cold, damp weather starts the aches and pains, but it is the condition of the blood that is at fault, and only by correct- ing this, and making the blood rich and red can the rheumatic poison be drive"n put. This is what is done in the treatment of rheumatism with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Acute and mus- cular rheumatism show improvement ;as the thin blood is built up, and when the blood has :been restored to rte normal condition the trouble vanishes. This is proved by the experience of Mr. John A. O'Neill, Port Hood, NS., who says: "I was a periodical suffer- er from rheumatism for years. I -tried Many remedies, but with indifferent results, and I had about concluded hat the trouble was too -firmly rooted in my system to be got aid of. While I: ,Wes,:.stifferhtg' from an attack a friend advised me to .give Dr. Wil- liams' Pink ,Fills a tidal. I drat got three,boxes -and by the time I had taken them I felt much better.

Considerable loss has been caused in the past by fires which broke cut on ships whilst at sea, the difficulty being that the location of the out- break was not easily detected. A new system has been devised by means of which air samples are taken periodically from every hold of the ship and conveyed to a detecting cabinet in the wheelhouse. Sbouid fire break out among the cargo, It can be detected immediately by glancing into the cabinet, where smoke will be seen emerging from one of the tiny funnels labelled, the location of the outbreak can. be discovered and measures taken to extinguish the flames. The method employed ifi the case of fire in a ship's holds consists of pumping steam or carbon dioxide in- to the space where the fire is smoul- dering. Thus its deadly progress is 'arrested. A Remarkable Orange Tree. There has been recently discovered at, Tampa, in Florida, an orange tree which a$or the past eight years bas been eoritinuously bearing fruit all the year round. Its owner, of course, knew otit, but he regarded the tree merely aa a freak. But now that the orange -growing experts have dis- covered it, the tree is surrounded tv . a heavy wire fence, and guarded by sentries day and night. They hope to propagate the tree through bud- ding, and so revolutionise the orange -growing industry. City of Zinc. Beira, in Portuguese East Africa, it a city of zinc. For all the build- ings and almost everything else), from railway cars to matins, zinc is used.
