Tk« Price «f Diumends.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
When I was in London a short
fine ago,” said Mr. D. DeS.
-Mendes, the diamond cutter ot
Maiden Lane, “I was allowed as
•|»ecial favor to see tlie great dia
mond that was found last year in
South Africa. I think tiiey are
S'dng to call it the Jubilee dia
uiond, but I believe it is not yet
named. It is the whitest stone in
l lie world, and one of the Inrgcst,
anil is owned by eight |iersons on
shares, the value living greater
Ilian
mmisly rich
could afford.
“When found it was of an irreg
ular shape, being somewhat like
nn r SS with the small end some
what elongated. The owners, in
order to reduce it to a regular
shape, split oir this end. and after
cutting the fragment found they
had a forty karat brilliant, which
they sold to the King of Portugal
lor 40,000 pounds. The value of
the remainder was not impaired
by the substractinn of this trifle,
but rather enhanced since the
split was successful, and the shape
»f the stone is improved. It is
valued by the owners at 1,500.000
pounds, and any gentleman who
wishes to invest in a rather costly
trifle ennnot do belter than to ex
amine it.
“The owners intend to keep it
until the Piinee of Wales shall
succeed to the throne of Kngland,
and then try to sell il lo him.
Failing in this sale, it is hard to
tell what they can do with it.”
“Who are tiie owners now?"
was asked of Mr. Mendes.
“I do not think I'd belter men
tion names,” he replied with that
caution which a dealer in dia
monds must needs have. “There
is considerable mystery maintain
ed about it, and it would not per
haps be safe to tell all the facts,
even if I knew them—about when
the stone was found, who bought
it and what they paiii. 1 know
that there ia such ajslonc,'howev
er, for I have seen it. and I know
it ia owned in eight shares, for the
gentleman who showed it to me
•wned one-eighth.
“It is diflicuit for people outside
of the business to realize the enor
mous wealth of the diamond deal
ers in London,” he continued.
“As an indication, 1 may say that
the gentleman showed me one
package of stones aggregating
5,000 carats, which he valued at
five guineas a carat. This was
by no means his stock in trade.
It was one of a number of pack
ages.”
“He is one of the shareholders
in the two great companies which
practically control the diamond
market of the world. They arc
the Central Diamond Mining Com
pany and the Kimberly Diamond
Mining Company. Between the
two they own or control every im
portnnt claim in the world in
which diamonds are found. These
are in Africa, for, as is well known,
the supply from the old mines has
entirely ceased. The two com
panies control hundreds of mil
lions of capital, and were formed
by a consolidation of all the small
companies owning claims, for the
purpose of controlling the output,
and so keeping up the value of
diamonds.”
“Is the value then fluctuating?”
“It has fluctuated considerably
within a few years. The scare or
flurry in the trade that was talked
about after the African mines
were discovered, ami was pooh-
poohed by the bulls, was a very-
active rea.ity, and was very neat
ly approaching a panic when the
consolidation was effected. The
large dealers saw plainly- that un
less something was done t 0 limit
the supply the market would be
broken, and they banded together
and bought a control of all the
diamond mines. Since that time
no new diamonds have been put
cm the market excepting those
which they have allowed, and the
price, which had gone down, has
been restored to about what it had
been for many years.”
“Then the price or value of dia
monds no longer depends upon
their natural supply, but upon an
artificial restriction of it.”
“Precisely'so.”
“And it is within the power of
two companies to break the mar
ket whenever they choose.”
“Undoubtedly, “but they will
never do it, for they would he
throwing away millions of [mum’s
of their own property.”

Basts* BJae Laws.
From Chicago Tribune Boston Letter.
The barbers of Boston are, as a
rule, nngodly. Despite the new
law which forbids to them the
practice of their professions oh
Sundays, their shops are still kept
ojien seven days in the wet k. Nev
ertheless, they do not Work the
Sabbath. But they gather in a
good day's wages just the same,
and the manner in which this hap
py- result is accomplished is bblh
interesting and instructive.
The first day of the present week,
at about 10 o'clock in the morn
ing, the writer was strolling along
Charles street with the faint hope
of finding a tonsoriml artist in the
illegal pursuit of business, when
lie was agreeably surprised to ob
serve a colored,“person with a
while apron leaning gracefully
against a red white and blue pole
on the nearest corner.
“Can I get a shave this morn
ing?” inquired the customer wist
fully, pausing as he came to the
spot where the gentleman from
Sencgatnbia was standing in pic
turesque repose.
“Yes, sail,” replied the latter
courteously. “Walk right in.—
You'll liud the implements, salt,
all ready for use at the fourth
cheer on dc left.”
The newcomer thereupon enter
cd the shop, where lie found three
other men—all in a partially
shaved condition—sitting on the
edge of as many chairs ami apply
ing lather and steel to their own
faces. The situation was quickly
explained by the Ethiopian in
charge, who had followed the late
arrival from the sidewalk.
“You see, sail,” said he, “we
don't dare shave nobody a Sun
day, for fear of bein' locked up,
lmtdere’s no law against lend in’ a
razzer and cup to gemmen friend.
So, if you like, the hospitalities of
disestablishment am at your ser
vice. You'll find a cullin' inslru
strumenl, wid de sharpest kind of
an edge on it, in front of de look
in’ glass, likewise a mug full of
lather, some hot water and a bot
tle of bay rum.”
“I see,” responded the appli
cant, who, without further delay,
seated himself in chair No. 4 anil
proceeded to operate upon himsok-
witii the utensils at hand. At the
end of twenty minutes or so, with
some incidental laceration, he had
finished his task, and the barber
—having helped him on with hij
coal—proceeded to brush him off.
Then the customer fumbled the
loose change in his trousers pock
et, and asked, sotto voce, what the
charge might be.
“Nothing, salt,” answered the
knight of the razor. “We should
he took up if we asked pay for ser
vices rendered on de Sabbath.”—
As lie spoke lie gave a portentous
and most expressive wink.
“I understand,” returned the
guest. And as lie went out lie
dropped an unostentatious 15 cts.
on a little pile of coin near the
doorway. All of which goes to
show conclusively the ingenuity
of an iniquitous generation is tun
much for the law a:ul the proph
ets to coutend against.
Laziness of the Cuban Mnntrro.
Edward L. Wakeman.
Tlie Cuban monlero's indolency
grows rather out of overproduction
than inherent laziness. He docs
not require and grab and wear bis
life to shreds to set great store by
No condition he ever knew requir
ed that. He has no love Tor lux
ury. Heoco he is in nowise ilis
tressed or distracted. He lias no
envious longing for broad acres,
for one acre will suffice. If he
owns half a dozen, his unnecessary-
wealth rests heavily upon him.
He needs no fuel tv warm him, for
a loving sun always does that.
He needs but little clothing to
protect him, for he lives in end
less summer. He requires no
barns and great storehouses, for
all the world lie knows is an end
less storehouse with the bin end
at his very door. He needs no
grand house, for the whole flower
blossomed island is an odorous
bed chamber eternally. lie may
herd cattle, or work on the sugar
plantations for a few months of
the year; but, if he does, a negro
or guajiro is his slave for the rest.
• The whole active, prompting
element of need is eliminated from
the monlero’s life. You must
know this before you can know
him. Getting a little closer to his
home life and thought, he may be
said to exist in perennial serenity.
He marries because his father did.
He rears children because they
come. They are welcome to come,
to stay, to go. The wife attends
to her few duties happily; she has
no “mission” to become frenzied
over; and tlie yams come on the
table at the right lime. So in tin
montcro's, there is a belter light
than in some of our pretentious
American homes.
Baring With Sea Crabs.
From the Youth’s Companion.
At Trouville, where one gets so
weary every morning of the bad
hour or two that comes between
the bath and the lunch, any inno
ration calculated to pass away
the time is hailed with delight,
and the person suggesting it is
considered worthy of tlie cross of
the Legion of Honor.
Some eight years ago. when ev
ery one on the beach was talking
scandal or yawning over the morn
ing papers, some genious thought
ot racing with crabs, and in two
days it became the standard morn
ing amusement.
Every one was hunting for a
crab. Size was no object; speed
and agility were tlie requisite
qualifications. The track was on
the wet, firm sand, close to the
water, and the goal was formed
by pegging down at tlie water’s
edge a cord about fifty feet in
length, raised by pegs about two
inches above the sand, so that the
crabs could pass under the lice in
place of breasting it.
Tlie starling point was about
twelve feet inland, and was a line
lightly pegged down ’.evel with the
sand. The owners distinguished
their individual crabs by- sticking I
differently colored wafers on their
backs.
Each crab was held by its own
cr clear of the starting line until
the word was given; then they
were simultaneously released, and
a most curious sight ensued. Ev
ery oral* would start for the water
at top speed, sidling along for
dear life. Some went as straight
as au arrow; others diverged in all
directions. Occasionally two
would run side by side, touch,
clinch, and fight, grasping each
other with their claws, locked in
an embrace nothing but the rising
tide would release.
Others would be going right
away, moving more and more
quickly the nearer they approach
ed the water, until sidling under
the tape, one or another would win.
No one was allowed tj touch
his crab after the start, but as cx
perience proved that water would
separate the fightrrs, it became
permissible to hold, a soaked
sponge over them and squeeze the
water on the combatants.
This game became so prevalent
that specially smoothed tracks
were made every morning by the
bench men. and if a phenomenally-
flect crab was discovered lie was
not allowed to return In his native
element with a single victory to
his credit, but was whipped up
with a small net, and deposited in
a pail for safe keeping, until re
quired lo run jgain.
Betting was the order of tlie day,
aud books were made as for a
horse race. There is a record of
one crab having won lor iiis
owner no less than $40,000 before
lie slipped under tlie net and cs
coped, in all probability uncon
scious of his fame.

The Solid Sooth.
Enquirer-Snn.
The New York Mail and Ex
press says that tlie south lias been
solidified so that it is just as much
a unit ns though the confederacy
lind been established. In one
sense this-remark is true, but it
does not go far enough. The solid
south overlaps tlie limits of tlie
old confederacy and lakes in tlie
divided states of Delaware, Mary
land, West Virginia, Kentucky
and Missouri. The south is
stronger, than in 1801.
If the republicans object to this
state of tilings they should con
sidcr whose fault it is, and what
remedy will change it. They will
find that this condition is their
own making, and will exist till the
causes which created it are re
moved.
When the southern states sub
mitted to the power of the union
armies, two courses were open to
the republican party, which was
then in power. It had its choice
of appealing to principle or to ha
trod of the south to keep in power.
Tlie republicans chose the latter
course and the south became solid
to resist the cowardly and cruel
war which they inaugurated.
1 Their course since then lias been
marked by constant hatred of the
south and they should not com
plain if this keeps the south solid
in opposi’ion to them.
Ten days ago brave men from
I the northern and southern armies
were assembled on the battlefield
at Gettysburg. The foes of 'G3
were friends of 'SS anil the best of
feeling prevailed. The feelings
that were almost universal on
that battlefield were feelings of
the strongest patriotism and love
lor the undivided union, and for
the people of all ils sections.
These feelings were almost uniter
sal but not quite.
There was present in that eden.
as its serpent, a post or that pu
trid annex to tiie republican party
known as tlie grand army of III
republic, and one of its members
who, during the war, disgraced a
general’s commission, injected in
to the greetings of lore that were
being interchanged between brave
men who had fought each other,
the statement: “I want it to be
distinctly understood, now aud
for ail lime, that tiie men who
wore the blue and fought on this
field were everlastingly and eter
nally right; and that the men who
wore the gray were everlastingly
and eternally wrong.”
What call was there for such
an expression as this? Why-
should tiie war he discussed with
bitterness a quarter of a century-
after its teruiiuatiun? As long as
tlie south is made an issue it will
remain solid. It matters not what
other issues arc presented, all will
he lost sight of in the idea of de
feuse against aggression. The re
publican party must accept the
solid south as an enemy of ils
own creation—an enemy that it
can never conquer.

Finally on the recommendation of Mr.

I bought a 1h»x «f Dr. Morse's Indian

We use no honey board of any
kind ami have no use for such.—
The queens hardly ever enter the
surplus department—not to the
extent of one per cent. This is
probably owing to the depth of
the frame which is one foot. We
have tried sections in •i < l l h from
one and one-half lo two inches in
width, and are now using them
one and three quarter inches, and
think we shall make no further
change in that direction. With
those two inches wide, the cell be
ing so deep the honey is not soon
ripened ready for the bees to cap.
Another objection is that when
tlie flow of honey is moderate the
bees will start pieces of comb be
tween the sheets of foundation,
which is a nuisance. It seems to
be their nature to build thinner
sheets when the yield is light in
honey. During a good honey flow
of clover or linden, we have no
trouble in that direction. With
•me and three quarters inch sec
lions honey ripens quicker, is seal
ed sooner and the comb is in a
small section at least in belter
proportion.
