Famous Gem of Evil

TRAGEDY HAS ALWAYS YURS WOMAN PUBLISHER WHO DEBTS SAYS SHE DOES NOT PERMLWENTLY.‘

Now that the famous Hope die- mond is in a pawnshop it may be‘ that the cycle of misfortunes that, have ronoiwa the family or Ed-I ward B. McLean ever since ho pur- rbascd ihc most irouhlcsoruc jcwcl‘ if. the world, back in 1012, are cnd- ed.

If happiness has ever come from the great blur: and u-hitc stone, which a French travclcr brought back from India 1n 1683, nobody has ovcr hoard from it. Death, violence, loss have followed in thc trail of the diamond trrough halt a dozen generations. Vlhocvcr own- rd it could expect trouble tragedyi and anguish. '

But Edward hicLean bought. it anyway. Now, with hcr fortune gone, his wife is putting it up for security in an attempt to save the ‘Nashingioxi Post as a. heritage for her sons, John R. ‘McLean, Ill, and Edward B. lifclican.

MAGNIFICENT ORNAMENT

Not to have enough money to finance their business and social interests was the last catastrophe which either McLean or his ivifc ever expected. As “the son of John

Post xrent into receivership, the court rcmoved McLean as the p11b- iisher.

Gradually the great fortune has been breaking up. ltIcLcans health has been shattered. His inheritance, wider i114; will of his aunt, Mrs. George Dewey, has been withheld until settlement of his outstanding debts is completed.

LINDBERGII IIOAX NEXT

Mrs. McLean made a worthless move, too. She paid Gaston Means $100,000 when ho promised to re- turn the Lindbergh baby. Even in- directly the famous kidnapping case came undcr i110 spcll of i111: eastern Jewel.

Now the stone is being used as security for debts. Maybe fortune will return to the McLean house when somebody also owns ihc jew- cl's sinister charm. lilaybc another cycle of tragedy will begin for somebody clse. George D. Homing, of Washington, has the diamond in his pawnshop.

But Mrs. McLean uants it back. When she can negotiate a real cs- tate loan sho will put it in hcr safe again, shc says.

R. McLean, owner of tl1c Cincin- nati Enquirer and Washington Poet, he was an heir to his father's fwtune, estimated at any-where hbm $40,000,000 l0 $100,000,000. Ev- elyn Walsh was the daughter of Ton Walsh, who had made mil- lions out of his Colorado gold mines.

More than 30 years ago McLean bought the sinister jcivcl through» Cartier. He paid $300,000 for it, andl gave it to his ivlfe for n11 ornamcnt. It would look raihcr dazzling on
