Teach the back yard order and a long jewel theft tale
A guidance bit stresses careful yard management to protect screens and doors, urging family cooperation to keep the back area neat and safe. It contrasts with a separate report: John P. O'Brien, a wrecking laborer, unearthed a $50,000 alligator skin bag of jewels stolen from the Claytons in England during the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. A Hindoo servant later confessed on his deathbed, claiming to have buried the gems in a wall space in the Manufacturers Building, with O'Brien later rewarded and serving the Claytons.
