Diamond Costs $4,000.

Only five years ago the largest stone
known to the history of Jewels was
found in washing" the "blue ground"
taken from the Jagersfontein mine in
the Orange Free State. lately visited
by the Brigade of Guards in the line of
their advance. 1t was blue-white in
color, and weighed in the rough over
500 carats, but it had to be cut into
two separate stones for the market.
The wonderful processes of nature had
crystallized it into two oval figures,
connected by n narrow band. AS yet,
it is said that no purchaser has been
found for so costly a curiosity. Tho
biggest mounted diamond in the world
is the Orloff, set in the scepter of the
car of Russia 1 myself saw 1t at
the coronation in Moscow. 1t is shap-
ed like half Of a pigeons egg. It
weighs 1914 carats, while the Koh-i-Nur
of her majesty goes but to 106. One
of the finest diamonds in Asia, that
taken by Abbas Mira at Khorassan
in 1882, is Of 1872 carats, and was long
used by a Persian peasant as a flint
with which to strike fire on his finder
box. The Persian name for the dia-
mond is "almas." Blue, yellow and
black diamonds are fairly common, but
a red stone is very rare. That of ten
carats in the Russian regalia cost $751;
900. Don't drop your diamonds, wom-
en-, on hard place simply because
they are called in Greek "unbreak-
able" They will split with tragic cer-
tainty If struck at the angle of their
natural cleavage. The largest ruby
po sssed by any owner is that which
Gu lavus of Sweden gave to the en-
press of Russia. 1t is as big as ban
tam's egg. Australia is greatest in the
way of jewels with her opals, today,
outdoing even Hungary and Mexico
in those lovely stones. If you make a
ruby hot it becomes green, but goes
back again presently to its own color.

Allegheny has produced the cham
pion dog story of the season, says the
Pittsburg Press. 1t is a champion
dog because it chewed the corner OF
a diamond stud. Peter Donaldson, a
second ward saloonkeeper, is little
sore over the loss on his diamond, for
1t was damaged so that 1t had to be
recut, but he can't help feeling proud
Of a pug dog with such power in its
jaws. The story Is told by August
Lock, jeweler on Federal street, AL
Iegheny Donaldson walked into his
store yesterday with diamond that
he wished reset. Mr.. Lock took the
stone and on examining it found 1t
was cracked He told Donaldson, who
gave the following explanation: A
few days ago Donaldson left his dia-
mond stud, a beautiful two carat gem,
on the dresser and went into an adj
joining room. When he came back
he noticed his pet pug dog chewing
was missing. Upon investigation hl
found the dog had got it and crushed
the mounting out of shape. After
some time he succeeded in taking the
diamond out of the dogs mouth and at
his earliest convenience started to
have it reset. Mr.. Lock then examined
more closely and discovered the dog
had bitten piece from the stone and
damaged it badly. Donaldson was GER
tain the stone was perfect before the
dog got it in his mouth. He could
scarcely credit the jewelers. statement
until he saw it through the magnify
ing glass. Telling of the matter this
morning Mr.. Lock said: 81 have been
in the jewelry business for thirty-fve
years and it was the first time l ever
heard of such a case. The diamond
was beauty and to all appearances as
hard as the ordinary diamond. One
corner, however, about one-fourth Of a
carat, had been bitten off by the dog.
The dog that can bite pieces of a
diamond is wonder The stone had
to be recut and set and that cost fair
sum. There is a great moral in this
case, too 1t DEMONSTRATES the fact
that pug dog has more power in its
jaws than the average person imagines
and the moral is that people should
keep their gems out of their pets
reach. The news of Donaldson's dog
chewing up diamond is widespread
in Allegheny and every person wants
to Sc the dog that has eclipsed all his
canine friends. The case is being talk
ed about everywhere and all claim that
Allegheny leads the country with the
sensation.
