4 CURIOUS GEM.
THE MAN WHO OWNED IT SUSPECTED OF
THEFT-ONLY THREE SUCH PEARLS
IN EAISTENCE.

4 Hungarian paper relates the follow
ing about q pearl: Some time ago,
poor jew entered q jewelers. store in
Pesth, and took ont piece of paper. 1t
contained small black substance which
he showed TO the ieweler. ''How much
is that worth % he injured. The store
keeper, cycling it, replied, ''It is worth
great deal, for it is black pearl, which
are exceedingly rare. 1 have plenty of
gray ones, but I never before even saw
black pearl" How much is it worth?"
200 forius for it o yes three times
as much. y "Will you buy it yourself?"
''No. There is only one man who can
tell you its value,-the Court jeweler,
Biedermann, in Vienna" Next morning
the pawnbroker set Off, and arrived in
due time at Biedermann's. He had no
sooner exhibited his treasure than the
Court ieweler sent for the police and had
the Jew arrested. On his examination
he stated that he was pawnbroker at
Grosswardein, and that the pearl had
been given to him one day by poor
man named Gyuri, on account of his
paying q debt of rent. The Jews story
was found to be true. Gyuri was the
trusted servant of Count T.. Batthyany,
one OF the great Hungarian magnates,
and whose family name is well known in
connection nowadays with the English
turf. He had given his breastpin on his
deathbed to the servant. The latter had
sold the gold setting, but not even the
Count was aware of the valuo OF the
pearl. 1t is said that three black pearls
the only ones known to be in existence
were stolen 150 years ago from the
Crown of England. The English Gov
errment has, it is said, purchased the
pearl from the jew for the sum of 10000
dorins. The Count had doubtless pnr-
chased the pearl from some dealer.

AN AUDIENCE OF ONE.

All the gorld has heard of the eccen-
trio distaste of King Ludwig of Bavaria
for publicity, especially in the theater.
His passionate love of the drama, and his
excellent Judgment upon its allied arts
its poetry scenery and music-are equal
Iy matter Of notoriety. A citizen Of
Munich says he has not seen the king in
a theater since 1868. when he sat alone
in the royal box at the first representa-
ton of the "Rheingold," and watched
the sporting of the water nymphs in the
green flood of the Thine. Since that
time King Ludwig has become still more
shy of society, and he now arranges for
separate representations of plays and
operas, at which he constitutes the whole
and sole audience. On such evenings
even his manager, Baron Won Perfall,
dares not show himself in the house, but
is compelled to watch the performance
from behind scenes. OF the actors and
actresses in these secret performances
the king is severely critical His favor
ite play, Schiller''s 'Jungfrau Won Or
leans, IS now never acted, because his
majesty cannot find any actress who
| renders the part of Joan of Are to his
satisfaction, although the decorations for
the separate presentations of this drama
have been produced at enormous expense
| of time, talent and cost. The king him.
self journeyed to Rheims in order to
secure that the scenery for the corona
ton in the cathedral of Rheims should
be accurate and faultless, and the view
of the interior of the cathedral is said to
be masterpiece OF decorative painting.
The coronation procession also has been
| arranged with rare magnifcence, wealth
| and fidelity to costume in the smallest
| detail, and yet, on account of the exact
ing criticism of King Ludwig, it is never
placed upon the stage He has lost none
Of his amiability for artists, and when a

all the other sovereign princes within the
