AS usual there was the customary small
crowd of persons in the audience, who, inn

The Story of Its Adventures Before 1t
Came to the Austrian Treasury.
From the jewellers Weekly.
The imperial treasury Of Austria contains
the Florentine diamond. This is one of the
finest diamonds of the world, and II Is
noted for its luster and brilliancy. IT Is
worth $4,000 and has a romantic history
connected with 1t. 1t once belonged to
Charles the Bold. Duke of Burgundy who
seems to have been rather careless In
guarding his treasures
He went to battle one day with this dia
mond In his pocket. and the result was that
he lost 1t. The diamond lay on the road
and Swiss soldier picked it up. He looked
upon 1t as a piece of glass and threw IT
down again, but as 1t fell the SUMS rays
caught 1t and the soldier thinking II
pretty trinket. concluded to carry it along
as a pocket piece Shortly after this he
showed 1t to priest.
The priest admired 1t and gave him a
coin amounting to about so American cents
for 1t. The priest sold 1t to jeweler for
go cents and rich merchant paid the lew
eler 81, 500 for 1t. The merchant sold II 10
an italian duke for s.. 900 advance on his
price, and this duke sold 1t to one of the
popes, who paid $4,000 for its possession
After a number Of other similar adven-
grand duke, who married the Empress
Maria Theresa of Austria, and through
her 1t came to this imperial treasury. II
now belongs to the royal family and has
its place in what Is considered one of the

From the New York Sun.


A passenger in an elevated train on q
recent morning was a young man who had
evidently been drinking too freely. The pas
sengers who came into the car later saw
him sitting In a crouched attitude in a cor
ner asleep. A number of them. including
some kindly old ladies. said audibly that 1t
was a shame such a young man should be
in such q condition.
During the ride down town he rocked
and swayed and jerked his feet around so
that nobody would sit near him. At the
curve at Sd street he gave a particularly
violent jerk and his hat flew out Of the
window. The old ladies said 'Oh!' and the
others smiled, but he slept on.
Everybody was appar emily curious after
that to see what he would do when he
woke up. All eyes were turned on him. and
the passengers who had to leave the car
looked back at him before they stepped on
the platform. At Chambers street he awoke
and looked about him in a dazed way. Then
he put his hand on his head and all the
passengers grinned. Still he looked dazed.
His hands fumbled around and presently
the passengers saw he had hold Of string.
He hauled away at that and drew in his
hat 1t was unin1ured. Then he smiled.

the old ladies lost their kindly expression
as he stumbled out Of the car.

Greenfell was far in the lead and wouid
