A Theatrical Mans Diamonds.

Mr.. j. M. Hill, the manager of Dem
man Thompson, says the Pittsburg
Leader, purchased on Saturday asplen-
did collection of diamonds at an ex-
pense of over $4,000. These diamonds
are to be worn by the ladies of his COM
pany in the ballroom scene in ''Joshua
Whitcomb." These diamonds, which
now belong to Mr.. Hill by right of pur-
chase, were formerly the property of
The late Duke of Brunswick, whose fame
as a connoissenr of gems and as col
lector was unrivaled in Europe. When
the Duke died few years ago at Gene
va, the city of his adoption, where he
preferred residing, he bequeathed his
entire collection of precious stones,
valued at f3,OOO,000 sterling, or about
15,OO0,0 900, to the city. The authori-
ties of Geneva, some time after ..the
Dukes death, determined to dispose of
the gems, and authorized their sale by
auction at Paris last year. A St. Louis
merchant and his agents have invested
100000 in purchasing some choice
stones of the ducal collection, and thus
the diamonds came to America, and on
Saturday were sold to Mr.. Hill for the
cash consideration of S16,12O. The
first gem is lady's lace pin, composed
Of five solitaire diamonds, the aggregate
weight being fourteen karats. The
centre stone is perfect gem, weighing
five and a half karats-a diamond of
the first water without flaw or blemish.
The side central stones weigh four kar-
ats, and the two end stores four and
6ve-eighths karats. They are equally
perfect, and guaranteed to be without
any flaw. The entire cost of the lace
pin to Mr.. Hill was S2,600 A mag
niticent diamond cross weighing little
over twenty karats, composed. of eleven
stones averaging nearly two karats, is
splendid ornament. These diamonds
are perfectly matched, of the purest
quality, and also guaranteed. The CEN
tre stone weighs two and one-half kar-
ats. The cross, which looks like
blaze Of fire, is attached to gold neck
lace of antique Roman workmanship.
The cost of the cross was $1,000, or
5000 per karat. Two pairs of earrings
weighing six and one-haIf karats each,
and one stone exactly balancing the
other. The diamonds are guaranteed
perfect. The price paid was 81, ,531 for
one pair, and 81, ,545 for the other, the
slight difference in value being occa-
stoned by the difference in the mount
ing. The gem of the collection, how
ever, is the diamond worn by the Duke
Of Brunswick as his signet ring. The
stone was left with the diamond mer-
chants of New York, with instructions
TO match it at any cost, but they were
unable to do so. 1t is pure white
stone, perfect in in every quality. 1t
weighs five and half karats. and cost

Stealing A s;nper.

The attempted abduction of a prima
donna has been the subject of much
gossip in Vienna. Some time 400.
about the hour when Mile. Blanchi was
performing the title role in Brulps
Blanca" at the opera-house- part
in which the heroine allows herself to
be led to the altar by the first cavalier
who presents himself-her would-be
abductor was laying his plot before the
artlste's coachman, and endeavoring BY
bribe to induce him to enter into the
scheme. The shrewd fellow unhesitat-
ingly assured the gentleman that he
would do everything in his power to
promote the success Of the project. On
the departure of the stranger the driver
at once disclosed the circumstances to
the managerial authorities at the
theatre. The following night, after de-
posting Ellie. Blanchi and her mother
as usual at their residence, the coach
man drove hastily to the rendezvous
agreed upon, where the languishing
lover had for some time been Impatient
ly awaiting his arrival. Upon seeing
the carriage the man rushed up to the
carriage door, where he was Instantly
pounced upon by two detectives
and carried off to the police station.
Upon investigation he turns out to be
a hare-brained lunatic, who, for a long
time past has been sending billets-doux
to the lady. He is now lodged in a
lunatic asylum.

The Fascinating Faldetta.

On the first sight of the women OF
Malta, gliding about the streets in black.
you think they have thrown their skirts
over their heads. But they have not.
The faldetta is combination of hood
and cape. Take a black silk apron,
gather it close at the top with several
runnings and put a whalebone through
one side at the edge, so as to form
hood. This sort of hood is then thrown
over the head, the "gathers coming
at one side, drawn SO closely that it
makes curve, and the apron falling
obliquely across the back. It can be
drawn across the face so as to conceal
everything except the eyes. And the
largo eyes Of brown are the last things
you or the woman would wish to con-
ceal. The costume is remnant of the
Saracenic days, and is one of the many
signs of Moorish descent.
This is very clumsy description of a
Notwithstanding garment. It gives a
piquant interest even to an ugly woman
and Providence for our sins still per-
mits ugly women-but it adds charm
to pretty women that is quite bewilder-
ing. Mind, this is not my opinion that
I venture to give, but that of European
ladies' whom [ have consulted. Perhaps
1 might not have noticed them other
wise.
All the Maltese ladies, as well as the
common people, wear the faldetta to
church, though on other occasions Eu-
ropean hats are gaining ground with the
higher classes. lam speaking at length
OF this costume because groups of these
figures in the street or thronging the
churches are the feature of the town.
The faldetta is always worn with black
skirt, but some bright color is Otter
about the neck, or for the bodice, to-
gether with heavy gold necklaces, and
the glimpse of this ha]f-hidden warmth
of color that the faldetta permits, in con-
trast with the prevailing black, is very
effective. It is perhaps the most CO.
quettish devotional garment ever invent
ed by the contradictory nature of thesex.
I have given much reflection (while we
are waiting for steamer to Gibraltar)
to the reason of its peculiar charm, and
I think it lies in this, that it gives to its
wearer the mystifying appearance of a
demure nun and dangerous adventur-
ess. How much the large, soft brown
eyes and the clear creamy Moorish COM
plexion have to do with it is scientific
question. But I am getting beyond my
depth. What 1 wish to say is that if the
sex wish to look both devout and fasci-
mating, the faldetta Is the best invention
of their genius. I am told, however,
that it is not comfortable garment in a
warm climate, and that the wearing it
tends to produce badness. And when
we get to bald women it is time to
change the subject. Hartford Cour-
