There is an electric attraction between
humanity and precious stones. AT the

rich collectors, who delight to look at
and handle them. There is an unac-
couniable pleasure in the touch of these
fine stones, they are SO smooth, cool and
soothing, and seem to charm the fingers
which caress them.
Where are the great carbuncles, valued
at 500, 900 crowns, worn by Mary Stuart,
and the string Of 900 "fair white pearls"

Good society may want them again if it
takes jewel mania. 1t used to wear
them by the province worth. Jeanne of

with jewels that she could not move in

her up-and carry her. Gabrielle d'Estues
had black satin dress 30 bejeweled she
could hardly walk in it. Nearer our own
time Prince Esterhazy wore 5000 bril-
liants in the diamond aigrette of his hat,
and the Swedish mobiles wore pearls in

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
LONDON: September S.-The Lore
Mayor of London, Bishop Temple and
Cardinal Manning have written a joint
letter in which they recount the negotia'
tons conducted by them with the dock
companies with view to the settlement
OF the strike. They express surprise at
the strikers reputation of the terms
agreed to by the dock companies, and
declare the opinion that if the men con-
tinue the strike they will forfeit the sym
patty hitherto accorded to them.
The strikers held another large meet
ing in Hyde Park today. The proceed
ings were orderly. Burns in speech
declared that it was mistake
to suppose he had agreed to the proposal
of the arbitrators. He invited the strik-
ers to declare whether or not they would
accept the proposal. A loud shout of
"no" went up from the crowd. Proba-
bly, compromise will soon be arranged
on the basis of increased wages, begiu-
ming in November.
The Lord Mayor told Tillett that he
and Burns ought to have resigned when
the men declined to accept the COM
promise. Tillett explained that the
compromise was rejected because it
would have created difficulty with the
wharfngers, who had already conceded
six pence.

LIKE DUDE WILLIAMS.
A Bogus British swell Arrested for
Forgery.

ST.. PAUL, September S.-A Pioneer
Press Fargo, North Dakota, special says
A stirring sensation was caused here to-
day by the arrest of a young man who,
for two weeks or more, has been sup
posed to be the younger brother OF the
Duke of Durham. On his arrival he
registered as Robert Morris of London,
but soon avowed his noble origin, stat
ing that owing to family troubles he was
taking a tour OF the world. His
income he stated to be $4,000
year, and he spent money lavishly.
Next he appeared at Mayville and ex-
hibited letters of introduction from Cor
nelius Vanderbilt and other eastern gem
tlemen to the Dalrymple and other
wealthy families. He speedily got into the
best society and lived high. A week ago he
left for the West, announcing
his departure for Japan. How
ever he stopped at Jamestown
and Friday night returned here.
This morning, as he was boarding the
west-boupd train, he was arrested by
Inspector Mitchell. of the London police
force, for the forgery of Ell 800. His real
name is Oswal Riddel. Of the money
he had nearly e40 left. He is a young
man, but 90 years old, and it is said his
father is now in an English prison for
forgery

"a Story of Amos Cummings.

Nobody who has lived in New York a
quarter OF century, and has kept Tim
self conversant with Broadway life, is
without recollection of that Blocker
street corner, A rickety old brick build
ing used ~ STAND there. It was owned
oy X 4. Bagnum, and it held two saloons,
Doth disreputable, but it was safe enough
for sober adventurer to enter the one
on tina street level, while the basement
was regarded as vefitable trap for the
unwary. Its keeper was a character in
famous in his day, and popularity known
as Reddy the blacksmith. He had been
skillful maker of burglars tools, aud
had retired from that nefarious manual
labor to the keeping Of a groggery where
Many an iaebriated or foolhardy
was boldly robbed of his money
and watch and hustled into the street.
The perpetrators CT the crime would
scatter before he could bring policemen
to tie place, ard so he had no redress
Reddy himself killed three mon before
he died, but it happened that in each in
stance he could reasonably set up plea
of self-deiense, and his victims were
scoundrels whose tskng-of WAS a dis

days Amos Cummings Was the menag.

several articles descriptive of Reddy the

Reddy feared that this attention would
incite the police to harass him, and his
notion of the best way to stop it was to
send threatening message to Cum
mings.
eff you print another word about me, ;
he said to the editor through a trusteC
messenger, ~ will lay you out"
After the Sun had gone to press tina
night, Cummings sauntered up Broad
way to where Reddy's underground
saloon was sending its light and huobul
lup into the street. He calmly descended
the stairs, entered the place, and fount
it occupied by as ugly set of ruffians a
q Dickens could delineate, with Redo,
himself behind the bar.
"Do you know me, Reddy?" he in

"No, DON'T" was the answer.
"Well, I am Amos Cummings, and
have just dropped in here to have yol

The crowd was silent in an instant, AMI

of Reddy; but the desperate, after eye
