George w. Vanderbilts gift TO his
bride, formerly Miss Edith Stuyyes-
SAINT Dresser, cost the master Of Bit
more 100000. 1t is a necklace Of ru-
bles, the largest of which Is worth
$500, and the smallest $4,000. The
prince Of these gorgeous gems is as
large, cut through its widest dimen-
slons, as the thumb nail Of a man.
These rubles, which will adorn the
beautifully modelled neck of Mrs. Van
derbilt, are a finer possessl0n-in the
estimation Of persons who are fond Of
bedecklng themselves with rare jew
els-than is any single ornament in
the jewel cases of Europe's royalty.
OF course the queens great KOh-i-nOor
stands alone, but 1t is Of an order diff
ferent from the Vanderbilt rubies. The
queen never wears the KOh-i-noor. 1t
belongs to the crown Of England-the
people of England, really-but the new
Mrs. Vanderbilt Is the personal pro-
prietor of her glorious necklace. The
car Of Russia could give his bride no
more costly or rare token Of his affec-
tlon than did the transformations and
quiet George Vanderbilt present to his
chosen partner. The first time Mrs.
Vanderbilt wears her necklace will
mark an epoch in the history of fash
ion. The story Of the necklace is in
teresting. Some time ago the greatest
jewelry firm in existence conceived the
idea Of astounding the world with the
exhibit at the Paris exposition of 1000
Of the most gorgeous necklace that was
ever seen. This ornament was to be
Of pigeon blood red rubies and the ac-
tlyities Of many dealers in precious
stones were put to work. The rubies
were secured in the mines of Kyat Pen
and carried on the backs Of elephants
by armed natives to Mandalay, thence
to Europe. Then the jewelers. set to
work and when they had finished their
task the gems were worked with ropes
of diamonds, into the superb necklace.
Mr.. Vanderbilt saw it and bought 1t.
This necklace is only one of the
pieces of jewelry possessed by Mrs.
Vanderbilt, who a few days ago was
a penniless girl. The gifts Of gems
she received on her wedding day are
valued at $780, O00.- Chicago Times

Her Last Public Appearnnee.

The sad death of Miss Winnie Davis,
the daughter of the Confederacy, 4"
will come as q profound shock to the
confederate veterans of the country,
and will be the source Of great sorrow
to the men who fought for the states
Of which ner father was president
The last time the veterans and the
general public saw Miss Davis, in the
enjoyment of good health, was in At
lanta, Ga, on the occasion of the
eighth annual reunion of the confed-
crate veterans in July. On that occa-
sion she made her last public appear
ance and stood before the veterans for
the last time.
None of them thought that Miss
Davis, who had been present at every
reunion and who was looked upon by
the veterans with as much love and
reverence as though she were their
own daugbter-none Of them thought
that she, the pride of their hearts and
the true daughter of the confederacy,
would be cold in death few months
after they had greeted her.
The news of her illness has been
eagerly read by those old men and
each unfavorable report has caused
tears to trickle down the cheeks Of
men who knew no fear. Every an
nouncement of an improvement was
greeted with JOY and now the last and
saddest announcement OF death will
scarcely be realized by the old veter-
ans and their hearts will be wrung by
grief.

Ca, Last July.

Miss Winnie Davis, daughter Of
Mrs. Jefferson Davis, died at noon
Sunday at the Rockingham hotel,
Narragansott Pier, r. l., 10 which
place she went as a guest in the early
part Of the Piers social season. She
had been IN for several weeks and a
fortnight ago her ailment was dag
nosed as malarial gastritis.
AT times her condition became very
serious, 80 that consultations Of ply
sioians we're deemed necessary, bat
frequent rallies gave renewed hope
that she would ultimately recover.
During the past week especially was
her condition considered favorable and
it was thought that her removal from
the hotel would be possible in few
days, as the hotel had closed for the
season, leaving the patient and attend
ants practically alone in the house.
Saturday night, however, q relapse in
Miss Davis's condition was noticed
and throughout the night she lost
strength perceptibly.
Sunday morning the physician said
that the end was not far on, and al
noon death came to end the suffering,
which at times had been intense.
Mrs. Davis had watched unremittingly
at her daughters bedside anL she il
now bowed with sorrow.
Mrs. Davis is holding up with great
calmness in her affection and no fears
are at present entertained Of her health
yielding to the strain.

HEAVY LOSSES.
The American Troops Suffered Severe
ly at Santiago.

The fighting around Santiago, Cuba
on Friday and Saturday, July and =,
cost the American army 100 men.
This estimate is made by the surgeons
at division headquarters after care
full figuring by the surgeons at the
hospitals. The list Of wounded, as
made up at division headquarters, is
very large in proportion to the list of
those killed outright. Probably less
than 100 all told of the number Of
wounded have died, making the total
number Of deaths in the neighborhood
of $50. The remainder of the wounded
will probably recover. Considering the
fact that not over l2.00U men were en-
gagged on our side. and that not all OF
those were actually under fire, the per-
centage Of loss is very heavy. The
slaughter was brought about mainly by
the gallantry with which our troops ad-
vanccd into the open ground in the face
of Il heavy fire from the Spanish en-
trenchments and rifle pits. Our men
generally had an opinion that the Span
lards could not shoot and many, it must
be confessed, thought they would not
fight. Both impressions were erroune-

Seventh and Fifteenth infantry close in
