Actresses and Diamonds Tia Nest Per
feet Emaraiiaa n the World.


Anna Louise Cary is said to own the
largest and most perfect emerald in the
world. It belonged to Queen Isabella.
and was bought at the sale of that
erratic Spaniard's jewels in Paris two
years ago. 1t weighs twenty-three
carats, and is set in a broad band of
Roman gold, studded with twenty-four
large diamonds. The value OF the eniel>
aid alone is set at fifty thousand dollars.
Selma Dolaro is the poSsessor of n
fine collection of diamonds. The pearl
of them is a necklace which encircles
her throat in every part she plays with
the white splendof of serpent of cleo
tric flame.
Janauschek's diamonds are simply
imperial in their magniiicence. Amc4lf
them are four which were presented to
her by the Car Nicholas of Russia aad
the Queen of Bavaria, and which are
worth about twelve thousand dollars
apiece. She owns wonderfully beauti-
full set of turquoise, in which the stones
number five thousand and set of ear
buncles presented to her by Turkish
ambassador who saw her play in Venice,
and which are priceless by reason of
their fine quality aad uniqucness of
their shapes and settings. Fanny Daven-
port, SidEd MOTIFS ana OIhcf prominent
actresses of our stage all own fine and
more or less valuable collections of
gems.
Although actresses buy diamonds for
ornament, there is always a prudential
sentiment associated with the invest
nlent, too. The irregularity of their
professional fortunes renders them alive
TO the value of an investment whose
cost they can get back on an emergency.
There is many u star who scintillates
about the country during the season,
whose diamonds are better friend to
her than her talent before her tour is
over. Even this emergency does not
arise, diamonds are looked upon as a
convenient investment. They are easy
to carry and do not de;criorase in value
''They don't eat anything" is a favorite
remark in regard to them by their own
ers-a statement many hotel keeper
who entertains the ainbulant theatre at
contract rates would doubtless like to
make in application thesOwners them-
selves.

FASHION NOTES.

| Sweet peas are favored summer flowers.
The new French couture is formed OF
| flat bandeauX.
Bare arms and necks are again displayed
by the latest fashion in cutting French
bodices.
Hiliotrspe silk shading to gold makes
an exquisite toilet combined with black
velvet.
The newest bodices are glove fitting,
with large and full paniers around the
hips.
Bonnet strings are made of very wide
ribbon, tied in a butterfly bow under the
chin.
The latest notion is to wear small
fancy bordered handkerchief pceping oft
of "a small pocket on the right or left hip.
The divided skirt, introduced into Lon
don by Lady Habberton is worn in the
mountain regions by the most fearless lady
climbers.
Handkerchiefs with very minute colored
borders, and the name embro idered in Il
color to match that of the border, are
very popular.
Black Chantilly lace fiounces that have
been out of fashion for years are being re
vived for trimmings of full-dress toilets of
elderly ladies.
Heavy corded silk materials. and stuffs
in silk and in worsted, figured with velvet,
are among the coming novelties in the
way of dress goods.
Many rich dresses have velvet collars and
cuffs, and dispense with any white lace
next the flesh. In other dresses soft puffs
of white crepe lisse are around the neck
and wrists.
A new half mourning bonnet is a large
poke of dead black silk, smoothly covered.
On the left side is dull black breast and
outlining the crown is bandeau of dull
jet. The broad strings are of soft mourn
ing ribbon.
Spite of opposition, children's dresses
are still preferred made in the princesse
style. The shape, however, is much con-
cealed by its numerous drapings in the
form of paniers, sashes, and other trim
mings. s
The newest Pompadour foulards have
black grounds showered over with very
large detached flowers. and are trimmed
with Fieelle lace. These are accompanied
by fan and parasol of fouIard, and
black lace hat trimmed with full wreath
of artificial flowers like those printed on
the foulard
A very pretty dress lately worn in New
York was made of dark green nuns cloth,
with very deep collar and turnover cuffs
made of ficelle or Irvine lace. The skirt
was Killed all the way up, and over this
was tunic made with full Buckingham
puffs. The dark green jersey bodice was
trimmed as described above. The hat and
parasol were of dark green satin, lined
with pale pink sarah trimmed outside with
rows of ficelle lace and a slender branch of
hedge roses and foliage.
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1882-08-30

A short time ago convention, which
doubtless made up in enthusiasm what it
lacked in numbers, met at Duluth TO take
steps toward building canal west from
that city to connect with the great rivers
of the central valley of the continent. The
Springfield Republican pounces upon this
scheme as another raid on the national
treasury for no practical good end. The
route Of the proposed canal would follow
lakes and rivers to such an extent that only
81 miles of actual ditch would have to be
dug AS an elevation of 700 feet would
have to be overcome, however. III locks
and SO river dams would be required. The
estimates for the cost of the work are 81 :
600, 600 but the Republican declares the real
expenditure would be $40, 0o0,O00, and
after giving the two Massachusetts senators
a slap it adds: The enterprise is like the
Hennepin canal scheme in substantial re
spects, and this convention and bombastic
talking is preliminary to just such raid
on the national treasury as has been made
for the Illinois ditch. In fact, if the gen
eraI government should undertake the Hen
nepin job it could not refuse this, and SO,
as has been said before. 1t would be bound
TO dig an endless number of canals from
one end of the country to the other. But
the recent congress called public attention
to affairs of the sort pretty effectual!y, and
to all appearance by the time Mr.. Bakers
empire gets a supply of wheat ready for
market it would be settled that all canals
like these shall be made in the honest way
by people who profit from them" The
Mr.. Baker referred to is Railroad Commits
sioner James H. Baker of Minnesota, who
in advocating the project, recklessly de-
clared that "out of the. mighty loins of the
republic has sprung new empire, fully
equipped, as Minerva from the head of

Murat Halsted's Advice.

To the inquiry: (Which is the most
correct way to ask Young lady to take
your arm, and which arm are you to
offer?' Murat Halstead replies as fol-
lows:
Well. ask her to take your arm; do
not grab her by the elbow. You might
gently and softly inquire, ''INiH you
take my arm?" 1t is rather solemn to
say, please take my arm''-unlcss you
are afraid she is about to get hurt, and
you are substantially asking her to save
herself In that way you may, without
impertinence, show tender solicitude
As to which arm to offer, other things
being equal, the one next your heart.
If you are taking her out to dinner,
something will depend on the location
of the DINING room and your place at
the table. Ii you are on the street, the
safest rule is to take the outside place so
as to serve as body-guard against
runaway horses. The presence of few
boys with velocipedes or tricycles on
the sidewalk might change the situation.
Above all things preserve your COM
posure-remember that you are good
man and bear up brayely.
