California Pearls.

The pearl fisheries of the gulf of
California have been enormously
valuable. In 1890 large number OF
pearls were collected for collar.
This eventually came into the pos
session of the queen of Spain and is
one of the most valuable of the
crown jewels. A brown pearl worth
SIS, 600, a black one valued at $4,000
and an exquisitely lustrous one
which was sold in Paris for nearly
Sc, 1000 have been taken from these
beds. Black pearls are exceedingly
popular in Europe, and nearly all
of this sort that are found in Cali,
fornia are sent over to the European
market. The Mexican government
controls the fisheries, and the bust
ness is put into the hands of San
Francisco company. About 400 men
are employed, and the oysters, after
being lifted from the rocks, are put
into schooners and taken to a place
where there are inspectors, under
whose charge they are all opened.
Pearl fishing is rather uncertain
business, as one may open thou
sands of oysters without finding
anything worth while. Again. in a
few moments thousands of dollars
may be realized.-New York Ledger

course, necessary that two of the

requirement during the season in
volved daily attendance st the pal
ace of four maids Of honor, each
two in their turn taking a spell of
six hours duty. These young ladies
were relieved at fixed intervals,
their service being performed dur

pernumerary maids of honor were
constantly in reserve to meet what

Even now the name of an extra"
maid of honor figures in the list of
noble damsels attached to the royal
household in the department of the
mistress of the robes, while it may
be gathered from the same lists that
there are four extra" ladies of the
bedchamber-two of them duchess

hedchamber women, one of whom
also bears the most exalted title of
the British nobility. This circum-
stance would seem to justify the in

better able to endure the fatigue of
court service than the ladies in wait

of the household, female as well as
