1 traced the topic hack to its be

roiifch translation:
"A dramatic episode took place
l:-t evt-niiif at the Kursaid. The
hero of the occasion was a till!
Kn.nHshmnii, who took hi.s place at
the table in the largo ealle towards
midnight. He played with small
counters at ilrst and won a petty
sum in half an hour. Then it was
bet. the drama.
"S'.anding behind htm, like n
Nemesis at his elhow,was another
I'liiilishman. .calm, Rray-eyed an I
cold, who seemed to be his friend.
Nemesis touched him on the
slHMii.Ur and signed to him to leave
the table with hi gains.
"The player muttered a curse,
shook off the touch, and staked tho
who! fortune, with nil imtetuous
Kesture. The gray eyoa of 1.1:

won,
"Apain thai monitory touch upon
the shoulder. Again the muttered
ciise. Again the impulsive ges

mained on the table. The whole
Anally h left with a million franei.
winnings had been staked once
more.
"All eyes were centered on the
tall man who sat with head in hand
ataring at the table as though he
jwould hypnotize tho ball by Home
mighty effort of his personal mag
netism. "Hundreds eyed him curiously and
whispered to oue another the
players who had erased to play,
tho spectators crowding around, an
American doubtlcs wondering why
so much excitement about so little,
a white-haired gentleman with the
ulr of a predicateur of lieueva,
nlightly scandalized, beside him an
other Englishman, tall and gaunt,
looking like a tonsured monk,
ascetic and disapproving, a number
of frenchman Intrigued, our own
compatriots Injured In their sens
of thrift.
"All waited for tho "no va plus"
and listened to tho rush of the
ball. It was aa if the player guided
it by an luvlsible string. ....
"Aain the warning hand. Again
the contemptuous gesture. The
player, staking his wholo tins
I each time, won neven coups.
"Then, as though he had con
sciously exhausted his magic in
reaching the mystic number, he
rose ppssef3or of a fo-lune, ond.
with his monitor, was escorted
away.
"It Is said thnt his winnings
reached the enormous sum of a
million francs. The player Is un
known at Usteud and cannot be
traced."
tWhen wo came to the end of the
paragraphs, we looked up to find
the official standing behind us.
Ho looked over our shoulder".
"Ah," he said, "you are reading
the report of the great seven coups
of 1925?"
"You remember that?" I asked.

the Pacific. hiKhway south of Ash
land, two hundred twenty-five
thousand dollars, and on the (ireen

Wall Street Report

Indicating a heavily ovtr-boiiKht
speculative position, the stock mar
ket turned sharply reactionary
at;aiu today under heavy selling
for both accounts. Pools made
desperate efforts to turn tho
course of prices upward, Uftitu;
more than u dozen issues d new
' hish records but a p. rsistent
, liquidation of tho re-ent industrial
I leaders frustrated their plane.
While many traders attributed
yesterday's laic Helling to the fi
nancial troubles of a larne Jmdon
I operator, the action of today's
market led most observer) to at
tribute the cause to conditions
within tho market Itself. Invest
ment trust buying, except tn a
few ismies, apparently hail ceased
for the time being, and it looked
as though Home of the older trusts
and trading corporations were
liquidating part of their necuri
tios In order to show good trading
profitH.
The closing was heavy. Total
flales approximated l.SUU.OUt),

Coaxing lovers fond, to croon
Of the future days, so splendid,
