CLAMS THAT THAI* PEOPLE. tome Curious [Hvnlvcs That Live In the South Pacific Waters. From the Son Francisco Examiner. In South Pacific water are found some of the largest shellfish known. One Is a clam-like shell, with huge ribs, the tri dacim. one-half of which has been known to weigh 250 pounds. The fish itself weighed twenty-five or more pounds, and a single fish, if served on the half-shell, would afford a good meal for fifty per sons. The tridacna has the habit of lying with Its shells partly open, as though to trap some unwary traveler. Attention was first attracted to this trap when a party of men wore rowing over the reef In search of rare corals. They saw a large fish beating the surface vlo ](ntly with its head out of the water. As they drew' near they saw that the fish was a large shark, which had been caught in a living trap. Its tail, or the lower lobe, was held securely by a giant shell, the tridacna, the strong and power in' mollusk clinging to it with a visellkc grip. There is a case on record of a man hav ing been entrapped in a similar way. He was unfamiliar with the reef and Its strange inhabitants, and, seeing what he supposed to be a great green sea ane mone, in- attempted to grasp it. But the anemone dissppoared and like a vise the edge of the rhell cramped the wrist of the unfortunate- collector, who, to his horror, found himself gripped In a stoop ing position by his hand, and he had aliout determined upon cutting off his band to save his life when the shell visibly relaxed its hold, and with a quick jerk he pulled out the maimed and help less member and quickly got ashore. —The Duke of Argyle has in his grounds at Inverary Castle a grove planted by distinguished guests.

SC ME THAT HAVE PLATED CON SPICUOUS ROLES. *‘\V omlcr Collier’*—Eogjisli Croun'K Rare Black I'earls Stolen anil Re covered—Million* in Gems. From the Chicago Tribune. Not long ago a list of American multi millionaires made the rounds in the news paper press. It is probably one of the most significant signs of the times, dem onstrating the leveling influences of mod ern conditions, that nowadays treasures nre gent rally measured by dollars and cents. Yet, it can be truthfully said that some of (lie most famous treasurers can not be purchased for any amount of the modern circulating medium. The author who would write the history of the jewelry box of the beautiful woman tvho Mould have to tell the romance of her heart, for each diamond, each smaragd, each pearl that has become fa mous in history has a more or less inter esting history of its own. How much more interesting is it to review the jew elry boxes of women of royalty, for these treasures have mostly played an import ant role in the history of the world. However, time has wrought changes even in this respect. The extravagant luxury in jewels and precious stones, which began in France during the reign of Louis XIII, is decidedly out of date to day. Princesses and ladies of the court wore necklaces of such dimensions that they covered nearly the entire breast. Ear rings, with their pendants, were so long and heavy that they would excite more ridicule than admiration at present. atchcs, which were worn pending from the belt, were of the size of a hen’s egg, and covered with diamonds. The family treasure of the Duchesse of Genoa contains a necklace from the days of Louis XIII. It consists of net le=s than nine rows of diamonds, each row alter nating with one of pearls of marvelous b'auty, ending in two rubies of enormous size containing the clasps. Pendant from the last row of diamonds is a star of the size of a Chicago policeman’s badge, fot m fd from Oriental jewels. It is the broad est and heaviest necklace known. A simi lar piece of jewe ry is owned by Princess Maria Josepha of Saxony, now Grand Duchess Otto of Austria. This Princess, nee Maria Josepha of Saxony, has one of the largest collections of jewelry in existence, In which the blue sapphire dominates. The chief piece is a magnificent tiara of diamonds with a cen ter star of blu * sapphires, surmounted by a crown of rubies. This brilliant piece almost overshadows a necklace cf three rows of pearls of rare size and beauty fastened by a clasp of pearls and dia monds. This pice harmonizes well with a brooch of diamonds encircling a large blue sapphire. Three small bracelets, one of diamonds, the second of diamonds and sapphir.s, and the third of diamonds and rubies, together with a corsage string of diamonds, complete the set. Aside from these there are numerous single pieces in all the imaginable forms of the jeweler’s art. These form the private possessions cf the Princess, who has bes'de them the family jewels of the Grand Ducal Otto house at her disposal. The most magnificent ear set is proba bly the one owned by the princely Met ternich family. It is valued at $150,000. and was once offered by Mine, du Carry, the favorite of Louis XV., o Queen Ma rie Antoinette for the favor of having the madame rece ved at court. The Queen In dignantly rep lied the offer, w r hereupon the Du Carry presented the Jewels to the Queen s lady in wai lng with the ex clamation: “Your ears are as worthy to wear these brilliants as those of the Aus trian woman.’’ The lady in waiting sold the earrings to the Austrian ambassador In Paris, who in turn disposed of them to Prince Metlernich. Among he princely houses who have of recent years figured prominently among the purchasers of rare jewels the Co burgs, Thurn und Taxis and the Tuscany family are prominent. The jewels of Duchess Clementine of Coburg are insur ed for $1,000,000, which in itself does not appear to be so much, when It is known that a single neekehain of Baroness Rothschild Is estimated at $360,000. Bar oness Alfons of the Paris branch of the Rothschild family has collected rare pearls for years and these have been unit ed in what is known in Jeweler circles as the “wonder collier.” It contains, among others, two black pearls of a size and purity not surpassed by any others. Rare Black Penrlw Stolen. The English orow'n contains five great black pearls now'. For a long time there were but two of these rare jewels. About 150 years ago three of these black pearls w'ere stolen. The five original pearls were at the time the only black pearls then known, and, despite the utmost ef forts of the English government, the stolen treasure could not be discovered for a long time. Finally one black pearl was traced to Brussels, where the Duch ess of Richmond wore it in a bracelet. The second one of the stolen black pearls was found in a necklace owned by the Russian Princess Orlow. It w'ns learned that these pearls had come through fifth hand to a noted Jeweler, whose honesty in the transaction could not be questioned. The English govern ment bought back these pearls at an enormous price. Tramp Held One of the Gems. This left the third pearl unaccounted for. Then It happened that one day a seedy individual stepped Into a Jew elry store in Buda Pcsth. The caller looked so shabby that one of the clerks pushed a velvet covered chair out of his way so that It might not be used by the strange customer. The latter, however, coolly took another seat, took from his pocket a paper, and from the latter a small black object which he presented to the Jeweler with the ab rupt question: ••How much is this worth?” "This is worth very much, indeed,” re plied the astonished Jeweler. “It Is a black pearl; one of the greatest rarities. There are some gray pearls, but not of this size and rarity. It has a flaw, be cause It was once In a setting, still It i* of great value. Where did you buy it?” ”A gentleman wants to pawn It with me,” explained the caller. “Tell me how much it is worth.” “That I can not say because it Is such a rarity.” “Can I give 200 guilders for It?” "Five times as much quite readily.” "Don’t you want to buy It yourself?" "Not I. for there is but one firm in Austria that could sell it again. This Is the court Jeweler, Btedermann. in Vienna.” The shabby man with the rare treasure disappeared without another word. He appeared the next day in the establish ment of Herr Bledermann. who had Ihe caller arrested In short order. The investigation proved that the seedy fellow was once the valet of Count Lud wig Bathyanyl. the Hungarian patriot, who, In 1849. was hanged by the Austrian government for high treason. Before lie went to the gallows the Count presented the pearl, set in a breastpin, to his trusty servant, telling him: “Take 11. This black pearl was bought by one of my ancestors as a talisman of good tuck. Take It as a keepsake from one who is going to be banged.” The English government, notified by J Herr Bledermann, purchased the peurl j for $50,000. The German Empress has in her Jowelrv ! box some priceless Jewels, hut they are surpassed by the treasure* of the Grand , Duchess Vladmlr of Russia and of the rrlnccss of Thurn und Taxis. The Jewel- , ry of the latter ancient princely houss 1 estimated at $!,G0O,0OO POPULAR >IISQI CITATIONS. Ilerr In n Llat That Nearly All of I’m \ se.
