DOM PAUL'S BIG DIAMOND.
Costly Gem Taken by the Boer PreA
ident When He Went Into
Exile In Europe.

One of the most valuable of precious
stones, although less is heard of il
than of the Kohinoor or the Hope dia.
mnnd, is that which was In the posses
sion of President Paul Kruger at the
| time of the outbreak of the Boer war
and is probably in some safe place
subject to his order at the Preser!
time. Mr.. Kruger took it with him
when he left South Africa. 1t has
very curious history, says London
paper.
The diamond originally belonged to
Meshhesh, Basuto chief. from whom
it was extorted by T'Chaka, the Zulu
king. T'Chaka's brother killed him
and stole the stone. The brother came
to grief and the gem passed into the
possession of Zulu chief, who soon
afterward was assassinated. The ma
tives say that no less than 16 OF the
successive possessors of the diamond
either were killed or driven out OF the
country for the sake of the gem. The
diamond then was seen by white men.
who set out to possess it. party OF
whites attacked the natives who had
the stone in their possession and a
fierce fight ensued, in which 800 lives,
mostly natives, were lost.
Menela, native chief, took the gem
and concealed it in a wound which he
had received in the battle. Afterward
Memela was caught by the Beers and
Jet to work as slave. Kruger, hear
ing his story, released him and in
gratitude Memela gave the stone to
his liberatox. Some years passed and
then Kruger shared the fate which
had overtaken all the former posses
sors of the diamond who had not been
killed-he was driven from power and
forced to leave his native country
Where the fatal diamond is now is not
certain, though it is certain that the
ex-president of the Transvaal has
parted with it. Some say that it is in
the Golfers of the vatican and some that
it was sold to the emperor OF Austria
and is now among the crown jewels OF
Vienna.

weight, but is not perfect. It's history
is one which would not recommend 1t
as talisman to any one OF superst7-
tious turn of mind. no matter If it was
the largest and finest diamond in the
world. 1t is almost as grewsome
possession as that hideous little In
dian idol which Nine. Carnot directed
in her will to be destroyed. This idol
was given to President Carnot by a
friend, who laughingly told him le'
gend attached to it, which was to the
effect that its possessor would attain
supreme power and then die by the
knife. The idol had belonged to the
ra jahs of Khadjuro, of whom five Ger
tainly-perhap more-died by the
knife of an assassin. Carnot laughed
when his friend told him of the legend
attaching to the idol, but after II
came into his poss ession Carnot be-
came president of France and died by
an assassin's dagger.
