THE GREATEST SPARKLER.
The Excelsior Diamond Travelled Under a
Military Escort.

When a diamond is found weighing
more than 100 carats, the news is usu-
ally heralded with much ado 1t is not
to be wondered at therefore if the find
ing of the Excelsior" created consid-
cradle excitement. 1t weighed in the
rough 971 carats, and was found near
Jagersfontein, in the Orange Free State.
When examined, it was found to be
white stone of the first water, but
had small flaw in theNcenter. The in
spector of the mine, a Swede named
Jorgenson, was the lucky finder. The
proprietors of the mine Breitmayer q
Bernheimer, had the stone tested ana
valued by experts, who agreed that the
value was 5000, 900. Two offers of
So, 900, 900 and 81, $50, 900 respectively
have been refused by the proprietors.
Upon it's transfer to the coast great pre-
cautions were taken for its protection. A
squadron of cavalry escorted it to the
railway station. In Cape Town it was
placed aboard the British gunboat Ante
lope, which carried the precious gem to
London, where it now rests IN the ire
and burglar proof vaults of the Bank OF
England.
The next largest diamond in the world
is the one owned by the rajah of Matan
on the island of Borneo. This one weighs
367 carats. The handsomest Of all the
large diamonds known is, however, the
one in the French collection of crown
Jewels known as the Regent" which
weighs 1861 carats. Louis XIV paid
5000, 900 francs for it, but now it is
valued at 10000, 900 francs or $4,000,
900.
How much the Excelsior" will lose
in cutting can only be decided by most
eminent experts. AS rule, the larger
diamonds lose fully one-half of their
weight in this operation. Naturally the
cutting, which is done with view to
having as few large pieces as possible
of the main gem, must be carried
on with the greatest care This business
is carried on mainly in Amsterdam and
Antwerp In Amsterdam there are at
present five large concerns of diamond
cutters, with 872 diamond mills or cut
ting wheels and 5000 hands, besides a
large number of less important concerns.

A half mile away the Prov of the
wreck Jason, with its white figurehead,
rose clean out of the water, standing
where she struck the night of the 9TH of
December, nearly two years ago. The
iron schooner broke clean in two that
night with the first shock, and the waves
rushed over her stern, which sank like
lead into the sand. Twenty-seven men
went down with it, and next morning
26 dead bodies lay upon the shore in
among the scattered bales of jute that
had formed the cargo. But the twenty
seventh, reaching the shore alive, man
aged to clutch hold of one of the bales
of the floating cargo and kept his foot
ing.
He was a young fellow, prentice lad
out of an English rectory, and he was
very nearly exhausted with the struggle,
but he staggered ON along the sand
through the storm until he met the
squad of the life saving crew coming to
give help where there was only one
man left to need it, and catching at the
first man he cried out to know that he
was safe. When they told him that he
was, he fell down in faint, and was
carried to the station like log. The
letter his father wrote in gratitude for
their care of him is kept among the rec
ords of the station, and it is one of the
few pleasant things to remember about
the most terrible wreck that had ever
lain on the dangerous Truro coast
Letter in Boston Transcript.
