TOO CLEVER FOR THE JEWELER.
swindled by Diamond Thieves While He
Closely Watched Them.

Joshua Chaplin, jeweler of London,
while visiting a diamond dealer in
Maiden lane, related this experience
with clever thieves, says the n. 7. Her.

Long after 1 thought knew all the
tricks of diamond thieves. had an ex-
perieuce that taught me a lesson at the
cost of 5000 pounds.
"A gentlemanly appearing, plainly
attired man came into my shop one
morning and asked to see some solitaire
diamond rings. l waited on him, and
did so with great caution, yet tried to
avoid giving offense. placed before
him tray containing forty rings, and
did not for a moment take my eyes
from his fingers, while he was examin-
ing them. As is customary, the tray
was filled. so that vacant place would
be readily noticed.
"My customer evidently knew the
merits of the stones. and was able to Sc
lect the most valuable ones at sight. He
appeared to enjoy examining them and
did so in a deliberate manner that
aroused my suspicion. Finally, he ap-
peared to be undecided as to one of
three rings and ended by saying he
would call the next day with his wife
and take one of them. This action
made me the more suspicious, and l
was careful to see that all the rings
were in their places before he left the
shop.
"When he did leave I sent a clerk
after him. AID we learned that he and
his wife were at one of the leading ho-
tells. registered from New York.
He returned with a woman the next
afternoon. and the tray of rings was
put before them. They were both very
deliberate, and examined every ring in
the tray; but took care not to have
more than two spaces vacant at time.
Finally, a ring. valued at 100 pounds,
was selected, and was told TO mark it
and send it with the bill to their hotel.
was about to suggest that l did not
like to mark the ring until 1t was paid
for, when the man handed me 10
pounds, which was more than enough
to indemnify me in case the ring was
not taken.
II examined my tray very carefully
and found that it was FULL with the ex-
ception of the space that had been oc-
cup pied by the ring just sold. I felt re-
ieved. and congratulated myself on
having made a good sale. Ny Gus
toner gave instructions as to the mark
ing. and left the shop.
Il handed the ring to our engraver to
be marked and proceeded to make a
bill to send with it to my customer.
Soon the engraver came excitedly to
my desk.
ado you know this ring is plated, and
the stone pasteP' he asked.
Il was dazed for a second. and then I
saw it all. l hurried to the tray OF
rings and found every one of them like
the one the engraver held. The man
had made an imitation of each ring. and
deliberately substituted the bogus for
the genuine ones, and thus robbed me
before my very eyes. l never saw the
thieves or the diamonds again.

The Italian Philharmonic Society, Gui-

most prosperous artistic organizations in
this City. 1t was established four years

residents, and has already performed four
operas.
Professor Spadina is the musical director
of the society. al Trovatore" will be per-

Miss Coleman will assume the role OF
Leonora, and Mrs. Minnie Cuneo Mclean
will take the part OF Azucena. Signor
Giorgi is to be Manrico and Signor Zap
pelli the Count di Luna. The chorus will
number nearly fifty people.
Mrs. Minnie Cuneo Mclean is one of the
most popular members of the Italian col
ony-indeed, it would be hard to find any
one at North Beach who did not know La
Minnie" as she is popularity called, for
she was born and has grown up in the
Italian quarter. She acts in English and
Italian with equal fluency and is consid-
ered a good artist because of her marked
dramatic ability. When any entertain
ment is to be given among members of the
Italian colony the first question asked by
purchasers of tickets is: ''Will La Minnie
take part?"
Mrs. Mclean had the advantage of
studying in her early girlhood under
that well-known artist and singer, Pro-
lessor Mancusi. This maestro, who
is the dean among the Italian artists
in California, perhaps in America, is still

and possessed of all his faculties. He is

Vice-President Stevenson the Victim Of
Sneak Thief.
If all the professors had dropped dead
and the president mysteriously disap-
peared there could have been no more
commotion at the Northwestern University
last Friday night. President Rogers tried
to make explanations; the professor of
Greek bowed low and raved inwardly, says
the Chicago Record.
But it was too late.
Vice-President Adlai E. Stevenson 8
overcoat had disappeared. Mr.. Stevenson
had come all the way from Washington in
order TO preside as judge in the intercol-
legiate oratorical contest.
President Henry Wade Rogers was
struck dumb. He wanted the bells rung
and the rooms of the students searched.
at is some of those boys" he said, "but
this time they have gone too far. I'll fire
them if it takes the cream of the senior
class and every sophomore in the institu-
ton"
But the Vice-President was calm and
dignified about it. He had been student
himself once. "Oh, it will be all right. 1t s
only a joke" he said, and shivered in the
cool night air.
But it wasn'ta joke at all. The coat was
stolen. At least that is the conclusion the
president and the faculty have come to
after two days of hard thinking and
searching
When the Judges of the oratorical con-
test went into the rooms where the college
youths were about to repeat their studied
efforts and make the gestures outlined for
them by the elocution teachers they piled
| their overcoats in heap on table In one
OF the outside rooms.
Adlai E. Stevenson's was the best of the
lot. His Washington tailor had taken
particular pains with this coat, and when
MI. Stevenson first tried 1t on the mer-
chant rubbed his hands in raptures and
said, TITS a perfect fit" The apprentice
had spent hours in working over the but
tonholes, and as for the lining it was the
best that the New York importer could OBJ
tain.
Such was the coat that lay on the top of
the heap when the judges went IN to
Judge.
While Mr.. Stevenson was listening to
advice on questions of government and
quotations from Ralph Waldo Emerson
some person-who he was and how he
came in is still a mystery merry
with the pile of oyercoats. This person,
after lingering over the various overcoats
selected the best, much to the later dis
comilture of the Vice-President. 1t was too
late before the discovery OF the THEFT was
made, and Mr.. Stevenson went to his hotel
without the garment.
President Henry Wade Rogers made the
most searching inquiries Saturday. The
assumption that some student haG taken
the coat for joke was given up, and the
conclusion reached that it was only case
of plain theft
The trustees have forwarded to Mr.. Stew
enson 500, with which amount the Vice
President says he can get duplicate OF
the coat, though the committee says he
can spend it for a lightweight in the latest
cut.

The Tivoi to Revive Leoocq's Popular
Opera Boufe.

Opera Boufe.
Charles Lecocq's still popular opera
bouffe, "La File de Madame Angot' will
begin week S run at the TivoH tomorrow
night.
The action passes in France at the time
OF the Directory, and as the Napoleonic
fad is still raging an added interest will
doubtless be taken in this opera, the story
of which is placed in the period when
young General Bonaparte was in the dawn
of his fame and glory as commander of the
army of Italy, and his patron, Barras, was
at the head of the Directory.
When ''La File de Madame Angot"
was first brought out it quickly attained
popularity, and even in Germany the
bright, catchy tunes became the rage.
Every one knows them, and they do not
seem even now to have lost their popu-
larity.
Lecocq's most popular opera bouffe is
we'll fitted to the talents of the Tivoli COM
pany, Oracle Plaisteds Clairette is one of
her best representations, and Tillie Salin-
ger makes an effective LANCE both the
music and the role being well adapted to
her abilities. Branson will appear as Pr
tou and Ferris Hartman as Larivaudiere,
Messmer plays Pomponnet, the amorous
barber, and Rafael will enact the role of
the dandy, FrenitZ. The next opera pro-
duced will be Lecocq's Heart and Hand"
The Native Sons benefit will take place at
the TlvoH on Wednesday evening next.

A GREAT ARTIST.
Ysaye's Coming Concerts at the Baldwin
Theater.


Ysaye, who will make his first bow to a
San Francisco public at the Baldwin Thea
ter on May ID, is said to be to the violin
what Paderewski is to the piano and
Elenora Duse to the dramatic stage.
1t is not necessary SO people who have
heard him say, to be educated in music in
order to appreciate Ysaye's wonderful
playing.
His marvellous power of Interpretation
takes possession of the hearer who cannot
but understand, and people who are I'M
appreciative of mere violin technique are
carried away by the musicians personality
and dramatic powers of Interpretation, for
he is greatest when most romantic-in
other words he is a greater artist than
he is virtuoso.
Ysaye is booked for four nights and at
each performance he will play two great
concertos and two brilliant pieces. At
his second appearance on May the
18th he will play the second con-
certo of Max Bruch, the fourth concerto
of Vieuxtemps and the "Rondo Capprici-
