IN SOCIAL LIFE

The luncheon given by Mrs. ]. N. Van
Nuys in her home, corner South Spring
and Seventh streets, Tuesday afternoon,
was most enjoyable and exceedingly beau
tiful. Covers were laid for twelve. In
the center of the long table was an i'm
mense cut-glass bowl holding California
poppes, their vivid color making pretty
contrast among delicate sprays of maiden
hair fern. On either end of the table were
smaller bowls filed with the same flowers.
Pendent from the chandelier were
graceful ends and loops of yellow ribbon,
and at each guests plate, substituting the
conventional place cards, and as sopve-
Mrs, were small cut-glass vases tied with
yellow satin ribbon bearing the guest s
name in gold letters, and holding clusters
of poppies. On the mantel, arranged in
artistic confusion, were oranges, their
bright hue being accumulated by the dark
green of their foliage; a heavy rope OF
Bigmonia Venusta extending from an
alcove across the corner of the room to
the wall, completed the brilliant scheme
of decoration.
During the afternoon Mrs. Modini-Wood
rendered delightful songs. The guests
thus charmingly entertained by Mrs. Van
Mugs were Mines. r. B. Millar, Alfred

A royal gift has lately come to the Pope
Of Rome. 1t is diamond the like OF
which has never been seen in the whole
world, unless the story of the Braganza
diamond was true. The diamond, it was
said, weighed in the rough 1850 carats.
The loss in cutting generally comes to
one-half or little less than two thirds.
This would make the gem weigh about $50
carats when cut. The stone was said by
Rome's Delisle to be worth 5000. 600
pounds sterling, or SIS, 600, 900. What be-
came Of it is not known. 1t is probably
now famous after successive cuttings and

Very little is yet known Of the i'm

Pope. The meager cable dispatches from
Rome say that it was found by an African
chief in the mines of Jagersfontein, and
il said to be the largest known, weighing
in the rough 81 carats. 1t came into
the possession of the President OF the
Transvaal Republic, who sent it to the
Pope. 1t is described as being OF blue

only blem sh being a tiny spot, invisible
to the naked eye. What the value of this
