"There will he 1,000 delgates. Cre dential from 37 states have been filed thus far. They will form a permanent organization.

This superstition quite naturally brought about the universal adoption of the diamond as the betrothal or anniversary gift. History tells us that through tlie ages there has only been one "unlucky diamond’' —the lamed blue Hope gem. History also relates of many wars waged for the posses sion of some treasured dia mond s—but notwithstand ing this, the stone Itself has always been believed to bring good fortune to Its owner. In fact, diamonds have been credited with curing vaNous His 10 which the people In olden days were subject, and many pa tients. ill In bed, had rushed to him some famed diamond to ward off "the evil spirit" that was attempting to seise his body, '■bdav new charm has been adddd to the traditions of the dia mond Itself—by exquisitely designed settings or mount ings.

District Judge Wakeley yesterday morning overruled motion for new trial in the breach of promise suit brought by Miss Violet Johnstone of New York against Dr. Karl Connell of Omaha, and in which a jury award ed her 150,000 in Judge Wakeley’s court recently. The hearing on the motion, filed by W. J. Conneil, Dr. Connell's attorney, was held at 9, and was attended by attorneys for both plaintiff and de fendant. The affidavits supporting the motion alleged that the trial had been turned Into a "vaudeville show" by the demonstrations of the spectators. Judge Wakeley said that while he regretted the demonstrations, they had been too sudden to be forestalled, and that he had admonished the Jury not to take them Into consideration, nor to permit a verbal battle between W. M. Connell and Emmett Brum baugh, attorney for Miss Johnstone, to affect its decision. For this reason, he said, he was un able to sustain the motion. Judge Joseph Gray, another of Miss Johnstone's attorneys, declared that the conduct of spectators, who had nothing to do with the trial, should not be allowed to prejudice the In terests of his client. Following the hearing. W. J. Con nell announced that he plans im mediately to appeal the verdtet to the state supreme court. Two Iowans Killed in Crash at Des Moines Hy International News Service.
