THE RUSSIAN GROWN

And the Romantic Story Concerning
one OF It's Diamonds,
The crown of Russia is at present
presumably the richest in diamonds.
Besides several valuable collections in
the imperial treasury, there are three
crowns entirely composed of these
stones. That of Ivan Alexiowitch con-
tains S81, that Of Peter the Great SAT,
and that of Catherine H., 1856. One of
its most remarkable diamonds is the
"Orloff," now set in the top of the inn
perial scepter, and on this account is
sometimes called the "Scepter" dia-
mond. The history of this stone a
been much mixed up with the Moon
of the Mountains" another great dia-
mond in the possession of the Gar.
The most authentic account seems to
be that it formed one of the eyes OF
the Hindu god Sri-Ranga, to whom
was dedicated a magnificent temple
situated On a fortified island in Mysire.
A French deserter from the Indian SER
vice, who had been at work in the
neighborhood of this temple, hearing
of the idols eyes, determined to be-
come their possessor. AS no Christians
we're permitted within the precincts of.
the pagoda, he, in order to gain the
confidence of the priests, became a
devotee and so ingratiated himself
with the Brahmins that they contided
to him the guardianship of the inner
shrine, which contained the idol.
Watching his opportunity one stormy
night he succeeded in forcing one OF
the eyes out of its socket and fed with
1t to Madras, where he sold the gem to
an English sea captain for $4,000,
who, in turn, disposed of it to a Jew
for e12,000. From him it was pur-
chased by Kojeh, a Persian merchant,
who, at Amsterdam, while on his way
from England to Russia, met Prince
Orion. This prince, in order to regain
the favor of Catherine H., under whose
displeasure he had fallen, bought the
gem from the merchant for the sum Of
100000 and an annuity of $4,000, and
presented 1t to his imperial mistress,
who had previously declined the pur-
chase as too costly, but now accepted:
this truly royal gift from her ~illustri-
Gus subject. The "Orlof" diamond
weighs 1914 carats, and its estimated
value is e369, 800.

RICHEST CONGRESSMAN.

Congressman William Connell is re-
puted to be the wealthiest member of
the present national house of repre-
sentatives, but what he is worth can
not be exactly computed in dollars and
cents, on account of the nature of his
investments, which are somewhat fuc-
tuating in character. Mr.. Connelrs
success in life has been achieved by in
du%strious habits associated with prin-
ciples of strict business integrity, and
young Americans may imbibe fresh in
spiration from his wholesome and
salutary example. More than fifty
years ago Mr.. Connell began life W
driving a mule in the coal mines OF
Pennsylvania at seventy-five cents a
day. At the present time he is the
owner of the mine in which he com
menced work as a boy, and is said to
be the largest individual coal operator
in the United States. Ro has spent his
whole life in the mining Of coal and
his wealth is now estimated at s2O,-
100000. He has the reputation also OF
being a c%onsiderate and kindly m
ployer, and of always being willing 10
help those who are deserving of assist
ance. Mr.. Cornell, who is now seven

Involved IN q suit 20 ue TRIED In the
state OF Colorado.
From the Denver Evening POST
For the first time In the history Of the
state of Colorado. the right Of a horse
as being entitled 70 sufficient food and
proper shelter at his masters expense
is to be tested before the courts, with
the Human Society upholding the
horses side Of the case. The facts OF
the case are as follows: During the
extremely cold weather and period Of
deep SHOWS last January, Agent Bailey
received reports that there was a band
OF horses, thirteen or fourteen in mum
Der, twelve miles up in the mountains
from Wauneta, and that the animals
we're showed in and starving to death.
They had beer turned out by their
owner to shift for themselves during
the winter. With a companion he made
a trip on snowshoes to the place, and
after considerable difficulty found the
animals. They we're in the heavy tim
Der. The snow. five or six feet deep on
a level. they had packed down by
tramping about, so that they were shut
in by the white walls of snow several
feet high, forming a yard" such as the
elk make In the aspen thickets during
the winter. The poor beasts were ter
ribly emaciatad and in the last ex-
tremitfes ~ gSdrvation. Agent Bailey
and hrs companion returned to Wau-
meta and went back on snowshoes as
soon nc possible with hay for the all
but famished animals. One or two
died from the cold and privation, in
spite OF the efforts Of the two men.
Il was three weeks before a path could
be beaten to the town and the horses
able to travel. They were Their taken
to Wauneta, and their owners, known
from the brands on the horses, noti-
fed. Agent Bailey demanded from
each owner pay for the food taken TO
the horses and the necessary expense
Of removing them from the mountains.
This was refused by the owners, and
the horses were held by the agent. A
suit to replevin was then instituted by
the owners for the recovery OF the
horses. This is the case as it stands,
and the decision of the court will de-
termine whether or not a horse that
has been left by his owner to starve
during the winter may contract a
board bill for which the master is
liable, and in a large degree fix the re-
lations of owner and owned.

her friends will be privileged to see
her act. At their Lakewood home, the
Goulds have erected a little theater,
perfect in appointments, with a seat
ing capacity for 1875. The stage is
small, and the scenery was built to 1T
it. The footlights, curtain and other
accessories are a miniature r%eproduc-
ton Of those on the best stage in New
York.
Any play, except one with an unusu-
ally large cast, which might tax the
capacity of the stage, can be performed
In this little playhouse. The appoint
ments of the house, as to lighting,
changing scenery and the hundred and
one details that go to make up the
back Of a stage, have been perfected
under the eye of a man skilled in
theatrical work. There is a property
man. a stage carpenter and an electri-
clan, whose duties are the same as
those of the men in large theaters.

In Manila the military government has
already inaugurated an effective quar-
