Coney Island Moat Not ad.
"During tha latter part of the last
century nnd early in this century,
amusement parks sprang up all over
the United States Nearly all of them
were reproduction* big and small, of
Coney Island. Today, practically every
largo city in this country has a ferrls
wheol-land where thrills are built to
order and frivolity la king.
"Coney, a small Island In the

The Island, at the entrance to New
Tork bay, was one of the first landing
places of the early Dutch explorers
of New Amsterdam.
"Steamboats began making trips to
Coney Island's beach from Manhattan
to 1840, the steam railroad In 1875,
and, since the city's subway system
and modern highways were extended
from the heart ef New Tork city to
the seashore, Coney Island has be
come the world's busiest resort. As
many as a million merrymakers, equiv
alent to the entire population of a city
the slse of Rome, Italy, have thronged
Coney on a single summer's day. Most
of them coase te swim or to walk the
boardwalk, bnt hundreds of thousands
patronize the various amusement
booths and concession*.

DAUGHTER TO SEEK
DAD'S LOST RICHES
Millions in Jewels to Be Hunt*
ed in India.
Nice.?Over sixty years old. Mrs.
Heleoe Gardner liotha of Nice, daugh
ter of one of America's most colorfwl
soldiers of fortune, Is organising an
expedition to India In search of treas
ure valued at millions of dollars.
Mrs. Botha, divorced wife of a judge
in South Africa, is the only known off
spring of Alexander Gardner, native
of what is now Wisconsin, who served
as artillery colonel under the Mahara
jah Ranjit Singh and died In Kashmir
in 1877 at the reputed age of ninety
two, leaving a two-year-old daughter.
Gardner's father was a Scottish
surgeon, who fought with Washington
and Lafayette.
At his death, Gardner was living In
Srlnagar, capital of Kashmir, and was
virtually king of an extensive territory
bestowed upon him by the maharajah
of Kashmir. His Immense fortune,
mostly In precious stones, which he
had taken as tribute, was willed to his
daughter, but disappeared before she
was old enough to claim It, according
to the story.
Mrs Botha made a serious, but vain,
effort to find the gems 35 years ago.
"It didn't matter then," she said, "but
now I am thinking of my children. I
am sure the precious stones are still
in Kashmir.
"I never have received more than
$500 a year from my father's estate,
and 35 years ago I gathered a party
and went to Kashmir In an effort to
recover my fortune, but my friends
lost their courage and I had to gtrs
up the search. At the Labor* bank I
found only a package containing my
father's will.
"This time I am determined to find
the gems and money because I am
convinced the treasure does exist In
any case, I consider I have the In
herited right to claim revenue from
the villages over which my father
ruled."
Experts Despair of Cure
of Radio Waves' Victim
Los Angeles.?Martin Bodker turned
sadly back toward his home at Ta
coma, Wash., after hearlDg from ex
perts that there Is practically nothing
to do about the strange affliction which
makes him whirl about and robs htm
of speech every time he hears the
blare of a radio.
Bodker, after four years of suffer
ing, came 1,400 miles from Tacoma to
eonsult scientists at the California In
stitute of Technology, at Pasadena.
Samuel S. MacKeown, associate pro
fessor of electrical engineering at the
Institute, told him that so far as elec
trical science Is concerned his case
was considered hopeless. Bodker pre
pared to return North, possibly to
close out his business and seek a
change of climate.
Bodker, fifty-three years old, mar
ried and the father of two grown chil
dren, demonstrated the strange effect
of radio wares upon his body. A sta
tion using a long ware produced no
noticeable effect at first except upon
his voice. But after a few minutes. It
caused Bodker to spring from his chair
and whirl like a dancing dervish. His
convulsive muscles quieted as soon as
ha retrieved his cane, wrapped with
copper wire, and plunged It Into a ean
of water. The cane "grounds" him.
Another station, of shorter wara
length, merely caused bis bead to bob
violently, and throat muscles to con
tract spasmodically.
Washington Birthplace

the clock during a recent Tlslt to Brit
ain, the department said.
Several other articles of the period
when Virginia planters did their shop
ping In Britain also were presented.
Among them are a tabaret, a bed
spread, a pewter Ink pot and four
sllpware dishes.
Brewer Gives Pointers

ing observations anent beer:

sight and smell?not to the desire for
