GUARD THE ROYAL JEWELS.
When Not in Pawn vaiuables of MOI
erchS Are Closely Watched

When Not in Pawn valuables of Mon
erchs Are Closely Watched.
Royal people are much given to the
accumulation OF jewels Of great price,
and they take especial care that these
baubles are not stolen. Many of the So
called crown jewels which are shown
to visitors to the Tower of London are
paste" the real gems being secured in
strong vaults in iron-bound boxes. The
jewels of the Russian imperial family
form one of the most valuable collec-
tions in the world. This collection Is
guarded in fortified castle watched
over by a special detail of $50 retired
officers and body Of soldiers. For
this service they are well paid. No Of
ficer who in his days Of active service
was addicted to gambling or to extrava
gance can ever hope to be selected as
one of the custodians of the imperial
jewels. The czar keeps portion of his
own private Jewels in banks in London
and Paris, SO that in case u revolution
should break out In st. Petersburg he
would have an anchor to windward"
in the two foreign capitals.
The treasures of the royal family of
Italy are hidden away in deep vaults
beneath a fort situated on a little is
land in the Tiber. Protected by the old
and muddy stream over head and the
military on the island. the jewels are
beyond the dreams Of even the most
daring and sanguine of burglars.
The prince of Bulgaria is possessed
of precious stones to the value $5,OOO,-
900. These he keeps locked in a little
castle on the banks Of the Danube.
King Milan of Servia kept such of his
jewels as were not in pawn in London
and Paris banks. A ruby necklace be-
longing to the king is said to be in pawn
for 100000. Some Of the jewels be-
longing to the German imperial family
are kept in London banks like those of
the cZar.

no doubt that Congress will continue

seventh Congress may possibly pass a

and make generous provision for public
buildings. New rivers and harbors will
be discovered, and In time national aid
for Western irrigation schemes will
doubtless be granted. The Nicaragua
