American Diamond wenrers.

At Long Branch, rs at Saratoga and many
American and European watering places, says
the London NeTS, the possession of diamonds
and other jewels partakcs of the nature of n
great joy. Naturally enough, the owners
wish to display their jewels Mt proper times
and season and in proper graduation. Thus
rings at dinner, eardrops at chop" or
scratch hotel dance and the far-gleaming
necklace at ball would satisfy the aspira-
tons of such diamond whorshipers as are
endowed with good taste. Unhappily, how.
ever, the temptation of great value drawt
around the diamond-decke ed bellies so many
birds of prey that extreme vigilance is re-
quired to prevent them from swoopng down
on the glttering prize. There is true story
Of u pretty girl coming down to breakfast at
Saratoga with several thousand pounds ster-
ling worth of diamonds on. Her explanation
was the simple one that she did not think
them safe anywhere else. More ingenious
minds resort to strange devices to throw
criminals off the scent. They imagine quaint
hiding places for their treasures, sometimes,
after the example set in Edgar Allan Poe's
story and in :" Les Pattes dc Mouche," select
ing open places as those which nobody would
think of looking for the subject they are in
quest Of An inventive lady stopped at Long
branch during the late hot weather. and after
serious thought decided that the interior of
an old umbrella was the safest place for two
large and valuable diamond rings. Unfor-
tunately n shower and her husband arrived
during her absence. Selfish and thoughtless
man took the only umbrella he found handy,
opened it when he got out Of doors and the
rings We're lost Clearly no opening should
be left with a jewel cache" to be selected by
masculine heedlessness and clumsiness.

Another Whale Caught.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-In your issue OF
date you state that Mr.. Strauss caught a
twenty-seven pound sturgeon on Saturday
last in the Potomac near the Anacostia bridge,
and that it was the first sturgeon caught in
the Potomac so far up for a number of years,
leaving your readers to infer that it was
wonderful performance While not doubling
the statement in the least, the palm for a
wonderful catch should be given Capt. G. z.
Crandall, a department clerk, who, while
trolling for sturgeon on the night of Aug. 10,
in the eastern branch, opposite the Jail dock,
after several hours of wearying patience
succeeded in landing blue fish one
and one-eighth inches in length, weighing
less than half an ounce, and went
home at 3 o'clock in the morning
perfectly satisfied with his success and at
peace with all the world and himself.
