CACTUS CAST DEATH PALL OVER FAMILY Thr e e Blossoms in 20 Y ears Preceded Tragedy In Ohio Household Kings Mills, Ohio. (U.R) Natives of this town tell the story of the | “death cactus" and the blight it . cast over the home of Oscar Con- I nelly. In hushed voices. Three times in 20 years it lias bloomed. Each time the white blossom has been uccomiuinied by death. Now it has been "thrown away, its owners hoping to escape Ils evil influence. The prickly Utile plant was kept | in Connelly's home without bloom- j Ing for years. Then in 1912, t lie I |owner's son was stricken with typhoid fever. Simultaneously, the cac- I tus bloomed, producing a single I waxen wlilie flower tiiat exuded a sickening-sweet ragrance. A few days after the flower withered, file on died. I util 1927. the plant failed to bloom. In that year, a daughter. Mr Mary MiCuilum. became ill. The “death < actus” bloomed. Mrs. McCullum died a few days later. A few months ago. the plant howed signs of renewed life. A ; lt.nl appeared. The family became i .emiinely alarmed when Mrs. Conj nelly became ill. She asked her sis [ti rdndaw. Mr . Annie I'ateman, to | .bling lite plant into the sick room. "The flower sei med to he just in [its prime when I carried it into the I loom." Mrs. Bateman said. "But i w hen looked at a few minutes lat-i.-r, it had withered.” A week later. Mrs. Connelly died Eor several months after his I wife death. Connelly .kept the : lant. Hut the tragedy of it- rare 1 P oms preyt I upon his mind. Only when it burst into bloont has death I visited his home. Si lie threw it ! ! away.

BRIDGE MEET STARTS FRIDAY New York. Mar. 31 (U.R) The | “World Bridge Olympic" tournaI ment with 50JMM) players in the lour corners of the earth will start promptly at 8:10 pin. Friday. Sixteen hands, most of them tricky. Itave been mailed out to game captains in every state of the union and Shanghai. Manila and Timbuctoo. A' tlie appointed' hour, the players will sit down, I Hie 1,000 game captains will start play and at the end, 350 gold ami j silver trophies will be awarded. Ely Culbertson, bridge expert who recently triumphed in 1501 rubbers with Sidney Ijettz, and a| sort of super-referee of the Olym ! pic. was not even disturbed today by the report that samples of the HI hand.-i had drifted into tlie"wrong hands.” He declared that most bridge players could study the bauds for. a week and still not know tin right way to bid and play.tlie 16 hands ways supposedly known only to Culbertson. Culbertson’s troubles will begin just when those of the tournament players are over, around 11 p.m. There will be Stm.bou individual scores to be sorted ami totaled. One pair from Hie 50.00(1 players is to be selected as the recipient of tlie first prize trophy, a gold cup with the names of the winner and a sample hand engraved thereon Then 349 other pairs must Im selected for Hie remaining cups, a task which would challenge the ingenuity of an income tax expert or insurance actuary. Meanwhile the 50,00 P contest ] ants, having duly paid tlie entry) fee of $2 apiece, and arranged to play under the watchful eye of om . team captain or another, will be called upon to look the other way | if temptation should befall them before 8:01 pin.
