A method Of successful imposition
with diamonds has, however. been dis
covered, and the originator of this swim
die actually defrauded the pawnbrokers
of London alone in one year Of upward
of $500, 900.
The general public, as well as jewell
ers, are aware that diamonds of a yell

| the trade, ''straws," are worth very lit

the value, Of course, increasing in ratio
with weight. Diamonds of the same
weight, if of the first water, or perfect

to ten times as much.
The methods of the individual refer

| Quantity of yellow stones, and then
by a'simple yet ingenious process sue
ceeded in imparting to them an evanes-
cent purity of color. This was done by
procuring two ordinary glasses, kettle
of boiling water and a threepenny
packet of mauve dye
The yellow diamond, which was
perhaps set in gold ring or pin, was
merely dipped in the glass containing
the dye. and then in clean boiling wa
ter half a dozen times, and allowed to
dry, when it presented all the appear
ance, even to the eye of an expert, of a
magnificent stone of the first water.
The next move was to place the ring
on the finger. and the well dressed dia-
mond dyer would sally forth. enter a
pawnbroker' S and pledge the ring for at
least three times its worth. Within IL
hours, however, the effects of the dye
would have disappeared, and the pawn
broker could only wonder what on
earth was wrong with his eyes when he
advanced SO much money on such yel-
low stone.
Fortunately, owing to the magnitude
of this individuals operations, the
fraud was discovered, and now pawn
brokers, if they are suspicious of dia-
mond's color, immerse it in nitric acid,
which destroys any dye that may be
present without in any way injuring
