Clayton Co. Herald.
Soma lime ago Mr. Louis Parker,
who lives on the old Litos' planta
tion, about livo miles from town,
picked up a stone which afterwards
proved a most beautiful diamond.
Mr. Parker thought it only an otdi
nary stone and when offered a $5 fer
it by a gentleunn in Atlanta, ho
quickly took it- The second owner,
by chance, met a third parly who
bought it for $25, and sent it to an
expert to be tested. Tho test proved
it 10 bo a diamond of no ordinary
class, and valued at $500. This was
not the first c’ mond found in that
commuiii'y, ei . the notice of a num

followed if a most careful examina
tion of the locality and the subse
quont purchase of the land by a par

began work preparatory to mining
for diamonds,

A Winner of $15,000,
An interview was had yesterday with
Mr. Frank Bergen, who recently won
$15,000 in The Lousiana State Lottery.
He was found at his saloon, coi ner Akard
and Marilla streets, and in answer to a
question, said hejlias liveffjjin Dallas for
14 or 15 years, and was in the railroad
business for about six years.
•‘Was this tho first timo you ever
bought a ticket?”
“No; it was the second time, but it
was the first time I ever won anything.”
“Were you surprised at hearing of
your good luck?”
“Surprised? When I should remark—
as William M. Evarts would say, I was
most completely inebriated by an exu
berauce of surprise.”
“How do you iuteml spending your
money?”
“Well for some timo past I have been
endeavoring to save money enough to
build a home, but it was up hill work.
Now, however, I am fixed and intend
investing m Dallas real estate in a very
short time.”
“Have you received your money yet,
Mr. Bergen?”
“Yes, I received a check for the full
amount and got it cashed."
“Tell mo, Mr. Bergen, how does a
man fee: when he strikes it rich?”
“Well, sir, I cannot describe the feel
iug, Tho first three or four hours yon
don’t know whether you are on your
head or your fe*t, and yon don't care.
Jf you should happen to be walking
down the street and fall headlong into
one of the mimbrous ditches and holes
peculiar to Dallas, or should you hap
don to bo crossing a ditch where pipe
had been recently laid and stick there
you wouldn’t cuss; you'd be too happy,
and merely cry, ‘Eureka! I've struck
morass, certain!' Won't yon have soma
thing?"—[Dallas (Tex.) News, May 20,

The BimIcw Fabric ot Dreams.
When a lady begins to dream dreams
and see visions, look out for her, for
there is no knowing what she will do. I
know a young lady who is troubled with
a husband and a year-old The other baby, night with she
curly, golden hair. dreamt that she
had a dream. She was
dressing before the looking glass in the
back parlor. Looking into tho front
parlor through the folding doors she be¬
held her husband in much too earnest
conversation with two young ladies. One
of the young ladies seemed greatly in¬
terested in what he was saying and their
chairs gradually drew closer and closer
together till it came to pass that the
watcher on the other side of the folding
doors observed her husband’s arm steal
round the waist of the young lady.
This was more than the indignant wife
could stand, and she crept quietly behind
the preoccupied giri couple and aimed a slap
at the which would probably have
lifted her head from her shoulders. So
erful was it that it knocked the
•hole scene completely out The
dreamer awoke, and so did her husband,
and likewise the baby. The gas was
turned up and revealed a very surprised
looking group. The baby was the most
surprised of all The slap ap allgl intended I for
the dreamer’s rival had hted full on
the curly, golden head lof her son.—

llusiliD Taatc In Colors.
While our steamer wqs faincr at tho
landing at Kazan I noted a chocolate
brown, house with yellow window shut¬
ters and a green roof; a lavender house
with »shining tin roof; a crimson house
with an emerald roof; a sky blue house
with a red root; an orange house with
an olive roof; a house painted a bright
metallio green all over; a house diversified
with dark blue, light blue, red green
and chocolate brown; and, finally, a
most extraordinary building which dis¬
played tho whole chromatio scale within
the compass of three stories and an attic.
What permanent effect, if any, is pro¬
duced upon the optio nerves of the in¬
habitants by tho habitual contemplation
of their brilliantly colored and sharply
contrasted dwellings I am unable to say;
but I no longer wonder that “prekrasni, ”
tho Russian word for “beautiful,” means
literally “very rod.”—Georgo Kennan In
The Century.
