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 ber of cupdalmis was attracted, to it, followed if a most careful examina tion of the locality and the subse quont purchase of the land by a par ty of capitalists, who on last Monday, began work preparatory to mining for diamonds, Clayton now boasts of a diamond mine in full course of operation.

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.

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.— Brooklyn Eagle. 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.
