Facts About Diamonds,

White diamonds, the most popular
among buyers are seldom what they
pretend to be, for stone clear and
transparent is more rare than one
thinks. There are red, blue, brown, yell
low, green and pink diamonds; heat
also often changes the color of stone.

Interesting Information, Especially to
Stoughton Bank Depositors.
J. Ell. Joice writing to the Stoughton
Hub from Monterey, Mexico, says: Il
enclose clipping from Monterey News
making mention of settlement of suit of
DR.. S. w. Scott VS. [. 0. Brictson. Have
been making a strenuous effort ever
since coming here to effect a settlement
in this matter. The American consul
took quite an interest in this and to him
is due considerable credit in effecting a
settlement Some of the cattle are now
being sold to settle with DR.. Scott. After
ters in shape 50 we can begin to do bust
ness. Our profits here are very good
and all hope for personally is to get
enough to pay my debts. Folks at home
may think we are moving rather slow,
but we are pulling together and are sure
of ultimate success We have splendid
piece of property continually increasing
in value and whenever those to whom
money is due get out of patience, would
be more than pleased to have them send
a man down here to see just what we
are doing"
The clipping is to the effect that "a
lawsuit involving a million dollars and
some 100000 acres Of land in the state of
Tamaulipas, which has been in cOntro-
versey between two Americans of this
city for the past eighteen months, was
amicably settled out of court last Tues
day. The suit was that brought by Dr.
S. w. Scott against [. O. Brictson to re-
cover some 100000 commission on the
sale to Mr. Brictson of the lands men
toned. 1t seems that DR.. Scott secured
an option on the various parcels of land
comprising this large tract and finally
made the sale to [. O. Brictson of Deer
field, Wis, and we'll known in this city,
where he has spent great deal of time
during the progress of the case. When
the transfer was made there was dis
pute in regard to the commission, and
the lawsuit ensued. It has been pend
ing in the courts of Victora and this
city for nearly two years. The ground
in question lies along the gulf, between
two rivers, and not considerable dis
tance above Tampico running back into
the country dozen leagues. 1t is a
most fertile tract of ground, and line
of steamers up one of the rivers and down
to Tampico is among the plans of the
present owners. Mr.. Brictson left for
his property on Tuesday, and when he
returns, in ten days or so, announcement
will be made of what will be done toward
developing this immense property
