Trading in Diamonds:
THE GEMS BECOMING A SORT OF CUR
RENCY-soME TRICKS IN THE
TRADE.

A recent advertisement in morning
newspaper to the effect that l$50O, 900
worth of diamonds and jewelry were
offered in exchange for real estate
prompted a reporter to Inquire who bad
so large a stock of gems for trading
purposes. 1t was ascertained from a
broker who is managing the transac-
ton that the diamonds were the pro-
perty of a diamond merchant who de-
sired to lessen bis stock, and it beng
the dull season of the year took this
means of accomplishing that end. i
do not often have diamond trades, said
the broker, but have managed sever
nj. | traded for several houses IN dia-
nonds not long ago, the largest amount
being $4,000. This was all paid in
diamonds, A few weeks ago traded
twenty -thousanddolla lot Of dia-
monds for house that belonged to
| well.known society lady. After the
bargain lad been closed, the diamonds
deposited "a my safe, and the deed
brought out for bel signature, she ask
ed 10 see tie stones. J,.ey were ID a
small paper box. and wiien she sa"
them she exclaimed, Is that mg b, use
10 tb>t htle box? won't sigH The
deed She did sign It, though, but not
uu,il afer mu:h persuasion.
A member OF firm of diamond i'm
porlers SAID Yesterday that there were
lust two houses in this coullrT who im-
ooried over five hundred thousand dol
lars worth Of diamonds last year
through the custom house. He was
satisfied that neither of these establish
ments was disposiog Of lls stock for
anything excepting money. 'Dia'
monds are largely used for trading pur.
poses, be SAID; they bring ready sale
aud command a staple price. There Is,
however, much difference between the
selling and buying prices, aud 1t takes
pretty sharp aud experienced buyer
TO avoid a deception IN regard 10 the
tue value Of a stone. A short lime
ago a gen lleman bought $4,000 worth
Of stones from US for cash. 4 Few
DAYS aGersard lie returned and said
,bat he would purchase 800 900 worth
OF stones provided we would value
them at 10 per cent. more than that If
our opinions we're asked by any person
wanting 10 buy them. We refused, as
mater of cotr.e, and be let the
office. Last week a werl'hY gentle
man called on US and asked our opinion
of the value ola number Of diamonds
he had With him. He sad that be bad
loaned a certain sun Of money on
them, and, as the loan had not been re-
turned, the stones were forfeited. We
examined .hem and found That be had
loaned much more thun they were
worth. To Que as,onishment we
found that all OF our four thousand-dol-
lar sale were included 10 the lot. We
,old him OF this fact, and described the
u'an, whom he readily recognized. 'In

And lovely eyes are cleaning,

And while thy steps are leaving
The circle pure and bright,
A tender voice half-grieving
Says Dent stay late tonight"
The world in which thou movest

Tie world of her thou lowest
Is at the ingle side.
She waits for the warm greeting,
Thy smile is her delight;
Her gentle voice entreating
Says, Don't stay late tonight"
The world, so cold, inhuman;
Will spurn thee if thou fall =

Outlasts and shames them all.
Thy children will cling round thee
Let fate be dark or bright,
At home no shaft will wound thee,
Then 'Don't stay late tonight"
