.Janauschek is the actress who is said to
possess more iewelry than any woman liy-
ing, and she places the value OF her gems at
S150,000. Her husband recently remarked,
as he lifted up gold bracelet thicker than
big mans thumb, 'This is set with five
one-carat diamonds and eight smaller ones,
worth about So, 900, and YVES given Madame
by the King OF Bavaria A'These," said
the expert, care necklace and bracelet Of
gold coin. I don't know what they are
worth" "These were presented to Ma
dame by the late Empress OF Prussia. 1t
is not intrinsically very valuable. but
the coins she had in her pocket before she
died. She used them for charity" "This
Is a grand stone, about eleven carats-
tirs.-water diamond. 1t is worth from SILL.
900 to $4,000" "Tiffany IS Co. offered
$4,000 for it. The Archduke Of Austria
gave that to Madame a long time ago, when
he admired her very MUCH" said Pilot. In
the casket were thirty pounds OF iewelry,
diamonds, rubies, turquoise, emcralds, ano
q set OF glowing carbuncles, present from
a Turkish ambassador ut Vienna; rings
chains, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, ano
gold eye-glass that Is set with diamonds
that the actress uses as Lady Dedlock. Most
noticeable OF all is gold frame about two
holq ,,at,a IN, ann OIL Orl
inch wide, in which are suspended siS
three-carat diamonds. The effect given BY
| the movement OF the stones in their rich
setting is remarkable. Madame Janauscheh
never wears any Of this .5ewelry except or
the stage. As Lady Dedlock she changes
4 her dress six times, and wears different
set OF 1ewelry each time, and during one
performance Of the part manages to display
about $4,000 worth. Some OF the jewel:
are more valuable because OF their history
than by reason Of any intrinsic worth
A necklace and bracelet of coins, tht
last one hundred struck off by the min
Of the then free city Of Frankfort on-the
| Main, are strung by the edges OF golt
chains. A coronct of turquoise worn il

about seven carats, is without flaw, and il
| valued at $4,000. 1t is set in breastpil
with frame of diamonds, and has pendan
a pesr-shaped pearl that is said to b.

$1,000, and the history that goes with then
names an eN-Yiceroy of Ireland as the donor

spent more than $4,000 for iewelry AM
