MILLIONAIRE'S SON KILLED.

["HOPE DIAMOND” TRAGEDY.

A Reuter telegram, of May 18, from Washington, states that Vinson Walsh McLean, 11 years of age, son of Mr. Edward P. McLean, proprie tor of the Washington Post, bas been killed by a motorcar driven by a woman, whilst he was playing in the road near his father's estate. The boy was known as the hundred million dollar baby," owing to the. great wealth he would have ulti- mately possessed.

In connection with this sad event the fact is re-called that the mother of the little victim is the possessor of the famous "Hope Diamond.” which is reputed to exercise a baleful influence over the families of its owners. Tragedy knocks impartially at any door, and though it would be absurd to attribute the exercise of malignant power to a mere jewel, however unique its other properties. might be, the history of the Hope diamond may be recalled for the benefit of the curious in such matters. The gem is a sapphire blue brilliant: weighing nearly 44 carats, and is believed to have been out from a rough stone weighing originally 1121. carats. It was brought from the East by the famous French traveller Tavernier. His fortunes are said to have taken a turn for the bad as soon as he got hold of the diamond and to retrieve them he set out on à fresh. voyage, but died of fever abroad. at the age of 81. If he had never seen the jewel he could hardly have expected a much longer life. Louis XIV, bought the gem from Tavernier and gave it successively, to Madamé de Maintenon, and Marie Lacziri

So the story of the diamond con- tinues, with the long arm of coincid- ence intervening. came by pur chase into the possession of the Hope family, and became part of the family heirlooms the property of Lord Francis Pelkim Clinton Hope, which were sold between 1898 and 1910. Mr. McLean bought the famous blue brilliant for £36,000 on the condition that if anybody of his household died within six months the diamond should be exchanged for jewels of equal value. But two of his servants having died, and his mother having fallen III, Mr. Mc- Lean refused to pay the first instal- ment of £8,000, and a law suit was begun.

INCREDIBLE HOUSES.

"ATFRONT TO DECENCY "' IN SCOTLAND..

-

A deplorable tale of the housing conditions over the Border was told reecatly by the Secretary for Scotland in support of the new Housing and Town Planning Bill, which came up for second reading. The provision of the Bill follow the main lines of the English measure.

Mr. Munro, said the report of the Housing Commission which investig ated the conditions in Scotland, was such a damning. Indictment that one can only wonder, that the con- ditions were tolerated for so long by a country which claims to be civilised and religious. The condi tion of things revealed was "a menace to health, and an affront to decency, and some of the revela tions were well-righ incredible." in 1911 there were 129,730 one room houses in Scotland and 439,344-two- room houses. In other words, 40.4 per cent. of the total number of: houses in Scotland have only 2 rpoms. There were 8.4 per cent, of the population living, in one-room houses and. 39.3 in. two-room houses. Many of these bouses had neither sculleries, sanitary conveniences, not

Ta ope room houses children under one year old die at the rate of 210 per 1,000. Today Scotland requires 236,000 new houses, he claimed, and said the primary object of the Bill was to secure as many houses, as possible in the shortest time.

Admiral Adair, too, spoke of the "damnable state of affairs." existing, and said that Glasgow alone requires 50,000 houses.

A more generans measure was asked for by Mr. Graham and Mr. A. K. Rodger spoke of it an economi cally unsound.
