SO RICH DON'T MISS DIAMONDS, Here’s Another Valuable Jewel Found, and the $3,000 Ring’s Still Unclaimed. I¢ the remarkable carelessness which prosperity is developing among some people continues much longer a speciat strong-room for jewels will have to be constructed at the lost property bureau. Last week a woman tried to pawn for $150 a ring which must have cost $3,000. She sald she foiind it at the Horse Show while scrubbing the floors, The owner das so many rings, evidently, that she has not missed this one, aa no one has as yet claimed it, Now the police of the West «orty-aev- enth street station have another dia- mond ring.

Another pathetic phase of the man's death ts that his two daughters are in mid-ocean op thelr way to Ireland to visit thelr birthplace, and, of course, know nothing of the misfortune that has befallen them. If Morley’s spirit could be communi- cated with to-day {t might attribute his death to the fact that the nine of clubs. known among pinochle players as the “death card,” was dealt him fre- quently while playing with his friends in the hotel Inst night. Morley was very superstitious on this point, and told Antonio Senno, proprietor of the hotel, that he was sure something was going to happen to him. “You may laugh, Senno," said Morley, “put I have been given the nine of clubs In every deal of the cards, You know what that meana.” The other men at the table ridiculed ‘this fears, but he was only partially re- assured when ho went to his room at midnight. All through the game Morley’s fox terriers lay underneath the table, close to thelr master’s feet, and followed him fo his room when he went up to bed. They generally slept on the floor close to the goor, and at the least sound they would alarm the sleeping man by bark- ing or tugging at the bedclothes. This morning, about 6 o'clock, Mrs. Senno, wife of the hotel proprietor, smelt gas, She finally traced it to Morley's room and knocked on the, door, he knew as soon as she had Knocked that something was wrong, for the dogs were silent.
