THE LARGEST DIAMOND.
Not the Kind the Ladies Love, But it is
EA Very Valuable.

Not the Kind the Ladies Love, But it is
e Very Valuable.
Information has just reached New York
that the largest carbon ever found has
been discovered in the wilds of Brazil. 1t
weighs 30S3 carats, and is almost as big
as ones fist. The carbon is a much
sought stone. 1t is black, of diamondif-
erous composition, and is the. hardest
known substance. For this reason it is
used for drilling, and is extremely valua-
bic. Small bits are found frequently in
diamondiferous regions.
About six months ago b. NJ Levy, n
diamond merchant, of this city, says the
New York. rribune, started on to the Bra
I'll workings. He worked his way up the
Amazon, partly a trip by canoe and partly
by the plodding mule Thus he Travelled
for nine days, until he came to a place
called Jacreandor Near this spot a for
mer scout of Mr.. Levy, one Pedro GunZa-
los, had bought n tract of land thirty
leagues in extent. Part, in fact, nearly
the whole, of this stretch of property
yields choice variety of boa constructors
and wild beasts, but, as GunZalos had
been fighting those creatures all his life,
he didn't mind them. The attractive por-
ton of this land was bit of clear
ground, on which he had found quartz
tune. He got together a force of natives
who were only.spasmodcally Industrious.
Small bits of carbon were found not
however, in such profusion as to satisfy
GunZalos. He was becoming discouraged
One day, two months after Mr. Levy
arrived, GunZalos' workman was hum
ming Il song while dislodging quartz in IL
perfunctory sort of way. He observed
with surprise the outlines of large car
bon in a fallen piece. He gazed at the
big stone moment in amaZement, and
then shouted eXultingly to the overseer.
That solemn official danced Il Jig when
| he took it from the workman $ hand, and
GunZalos treated all hands literally when
| the cartoon was brought to him. 4 few
days after he went to Jacreandor. He
| showed the stone to Mr.. Levy, who had
been quietly buying Il few bargains in
gems.
| After inspecting it critically, Mr.. Levy
said: I'll give you CD, 500,for the carbon :"
Gunzalos rejected the offer with a
| scornful gesture. ''I'll sell it for Go. 600
and not pound less he said
| But" insisted Mr.. Levy ''it will cost
tl,OOO to cut the carbon. Why, nothing
| less than ten ton hammer will make an
impression on it. You see the expense
the buyer will be under"
| II think | shall have it kept in a yault
in Paris for the present." Gunzalos said,
land then l may send it to the United
/ States.'
| The carbon is 1-2 inches long, 3 inches
wide, and the same in thickness 1t is a
| trifie spongy on small area of the sur
| face, but otherwise is solid

JlM'S MISTAKES.
Written for The Times by Mrs. Lemuel
Clifton Evans.

When we, Roberta Smith, James
Brown and myself (William jones' were
children we attended school in the big
school house at Brushwood. That was
years ago. Then we were not honored
with our Christian names, but were just
Bert, Squinty and Reddy, for Jim was
near sighted, and my head of carroty hair
was the butt of many jokes. AS James
was next neighbor to Roberta what could
be more natural or polite than that he
should carry her books and lunch in nice
weather, or draw her to school on his sled
in winter? But Mt school we boys teas
ed SQuinty about Bert being his sweet
heart, and often asked when the we'd
ding would be- and if we would be inyit-
ed.
The second winter, soon after school
began Roberta had spell of scarlet fever
and, as the fever abated, she often COM
planned of not hearing as we'll as former
ly.
So time flew by, and we each left school
about the time we were eighteen. JIM
father died about this time and to him
fell the lot of caring for the farm and his
mother. An aunt of Roberta's in dis
tant city, invited her to spend several
months with her and much to our regret
for Jim was not the only young man
who thought her perfecG she went. Since
she was young lady, Jim was still her
escort He was fine fellow, but he
squinted as bad as ever, and her hearing
did not improve.
Well, the day she left for the city, one
of the boys said to jim, as the train pull
ed out from the station:
''There goes your last hope, Suuinty.
Some fellow in the city III cut you out,
and after all we'll be cheated out of see
ing you married.
I'll never forget how Jim flew up and
answered.
Look here now! I've put up with as
much teasing from you fellows as intend
to. We are not children any more and
the first mothers son of you that at
tempts to tease again, I'll lickr' and he
walked away.
We knew him too well to doubt his
word, for man with a stronger arm did
not live around Brushwood.
In the fall / left for college and it was
not until to-day, ten years later, that !
again set foot in that town. Yes, it is a
town now, for some capitalists discovered
that the river nearby could furnish
power for many factories that now line
its banks. So the lanes and field. paths
became broad streets and most preten.
tious high school stands upon the site OF
our old log building.
OF course 1 asked about my friends
and my hostess, with laugh told me q
good joke on jim. The summer follow.
ing Roberta IS visit to the city, the church
| decided to hold a supper or festival, and
the young ladies were going to have s
"broom drill" Under Roberta's instruc
| tions the rehearsals went on, and on the
night of the festival she and nineteen
yonng ladies in pink drssses, white apron.
| and caps, gave the ''drill.'' Jim tool
Roberta and ne must have been moro
than ever impressed that she was the
Sweetest and best, for when they were
near the church ne said:
''Berta, I'll be waiting in the vestibult
for you, and I've something, of vast i'm
portance to me, to say to you.'
Every we'll, Jim" and she Joined the
Young ladies,
When the festival was over Jim was

ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

Well begin with box and the plural is
boxes,
But the plural of OK should be oxen, not
The one fowl is goose, but two are called
Yet the plural of moose should never be
meeSe.
You may find lone mouse or whole
nest of mice,
But the plural of house is not hice.
If the plural of man is always called men,
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called
pen? s'u -
The COW in the plural may be called COWS
or kline,
But bow if repeated is never called bine,
And the plural of VOW is vows, never vine
If speak of n foot and you show me your
feet,
And give you a boot, would a pair be
called beet?
If one is tooth and a whole set are
teeth,
Why shouldn't the plural of booth be
called beeth?
If the singular's this and the plural is
these,
Should the plural of kiss ever be nick
named keese?
Then one may be that and three would be
those.
Yet hat in the plural never be hose,
And the plural of cat is cats, not cose
We speak of brother and also of breth-
rem,
But though we say mother we never say
methren.
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his,
him,
But imagine the feminine she, shis and
SHIN.
So the English, think, you will all agree,
Is the greatest language you ever did see.
