A $4,000 Diamond Necklace.
BY JOS. LINZ IL BRO, OF SHERMAN.

In space of about AXIS feet i'm one
corner of Bauman's exhibit at the Dali
las State Fair grounds, there is q dis
play of diamonds that excells any
thing of the kind ever shown in the
southwest. About the neck of a waxen
figure of a woman in n glass case is
necklace, pendant and brooch of dia-
monds valued at $4,000. These stones
vary in size. There are thirty-nine d.
Almonds in the necklace, twenty-eight
in the pendant and five large ones in
the brooch. The richness and magnif-
icence of this brilliant gem cannot be
conceived in imagination. 1t must be
seen, its brilliancy is dazing. Those
who have never seen such wealth of
diamonds, can only dream of its beau
ty by what they have read in pages of
oriental history. This enterprising firm
are perhaps the most extensive diamond
dealers in the west. Nothing of the
kind escapes them. Their name has
become famous already, though they
are yet young men. In their show
case at the fair they have watches val
ued at $500 to $3.50 which strike the
hours anu puau tcis, anu are aisO stOp
watches, the name of their firm is en-
graved on all their goods. They i'm |
port the best Swiss movements, and
the style of their work cannot be sur
pass 4; besides these rich and magnifi-
cent displays, are diamonds, solitaire
and in clusters, which make the hearts
ofthe ladies sigh with regret that they
are not able to make an immediate
purchase. This firm is located at Sher-
mad and do an immense business.
They carry stock of about $4,000
and in consequence are enabled to
purchase at greater advantage and
sell at lower figures than smaller deal
ers. They will be pleased to talk with
you and give you all the information
about diamonds and fine watches de-
sired.

THE CHARGES AGAINST HIM BEFORE THE
CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION.
The civil service commission have received
the charges against Postmaster Harrity, OF
Philadelphia, made in a letter by the Philadel
phia Reform association, but have not yet
taken any action. Commissioner Edgerton ex-
pressed the opinion to a STAR reporter to-day
that the charges were altogether too vague and
general TO warrant the commissions taking
any notice OF them. Ii they would name some
one man who had been improperly appointed,
or lnstanced one case of a violation OF the civil
service law. something might be done by the
commission; but for his part, he did not think
they had any right TO pay attention TO vague
reports.
Mr.. Oberly, however, said he thought the
commission would 60 - Philadelphia and have
