LUCK ROUND THE WORLD
Miss Chang Ju-lan, an employee of the Shanghai City Government, drew a third prize—£600—in the National State Lottery. She placed her ticket in a trunk in her bedroom. The day after the draw the trunk, and with it the ticket, were destroyed by fire. Three brothers at Balsan, in Simla Hills, India, are alleged to have plotted to obtain the estate of a fourth brother by murdering his heir, a small son. They hired a man to do the murder. He accosted the child and took him to his own house. Just as he was about to attack the boy a cobra appeared and attacked the man. It was the boy's cries that brought people running from outside —and the man was rescued.
