SPOILS OF AN OLD CASKET
Carefully Hidden Dowry of a Ho-
' hammedan Bride.
A true fairy tale concerning an Ori
ental casket sold by an antiquary to 1
Parisian amateur la related by the corre
spondent of the London Telegraph.
The' casket is of beautiful artistio
workmanship Of ollv wood, with In
crustatlona. -It was evidently a wedding
preaiaeni, sucn as it is in custom to
give to a bride in Mohammedan coun-
(.1.. . .. . -
There Is a perfume of rose leaves, a
delicate far away fragrance of the dis
tant east, when the cover is .lifted. The
antiquary bought it at a general sale
long ago and offered it to purchasers
amid Louis XVI clocks, old ribbons and
out of date decorations. A lover of
quaint antiques, M. . Maurice saw the
casket ana bought It
As it had been knocked about a rood
deal in Its long Journey It stood In need
Of repairs and M. Maurice gave it to an
expert workman to restore. The-work
man tapped it and was surprised to no
tice a metallic sound Inside. He found
that the Jewel box had a double bottanv
ana wnen openea there were rows of
old and odd coins, whicn glittered farm.

were 01 pure goto. s '' '
a numismatist declared they were

was a sum wnicp, to a young bride a

man Informed M. Maurice and the lat
ter told the antiquary. As they were
all three hottest men each wished that
the other should claim the bride's treas
ure.: , ; Art i
f They referred the matter to the police
commissary, who gave a decision worthy
of .Solomon... He divided the gold coins
Into two equal piles and told M. Maurice
and the antiquary to take ach a pile
ana then -left it to their combined aen.
eroaity to reward the honest workman.
