VALUATION OF PEARLS

No person who has not a refined taste

true place among the beautiful gems. Nor
is it refinement alone that enables one to

The most important pearl fisheries are
In the Indian ocean; others are in the
gulf of California and the caribbean sea.
Pearls taken from different localities vary,
each locality having its marked character

knowledge of this gem believe pearls found

try to be of inferior quality. This is not
necessarily true, as the value of a pearl
depends upon three things: First, its
form, which in order of value must be
round, pear shaped or exactly oval; Sec

experts, and, third, the purity 81 its color,

requirements in proportion, are of much

Black pearls are by far the most valuable.
These come in order, pink, yellow and
brown; but the colors must be decided.

Pearls are steadily advancing In price;

Plans for "A Greater Chautauqua"

New York Tribune.

On the beautiful lake and forest site IN
New York's most westerly county, where
for nearly thirty years Chautauqua has
been successfully working out its lofty
aims for public education, new and
greater assembly will be raised. The
scheme of reconstruction involves the ex
penditure of $4,000, 900, and 1t Is on such
scale that there can be Indefinite ex-
tension without demolition. With an ever
increasing throng of culture hungry WIS.,
itors, Chautauque has outgrown the facili-
ties which at one time were ample. Fur
Their progress was impossible without re-
building, and millions Of persons in all
parts of the country who have profited
from one Chautauque course or another
will welcome the announcement that the
Improvement is under way.
The plans Of general development and
detail plans Of several Of the larger build
ings were on exhibition last week at the
Art Club Of Philadelphia. They are the
work Of Albert Kelsey, a Philadelphia ar
>chitect, who won the competition an
nouncede by the trustees last year. Asso-
ciated with him are Warren H Man
ming, landscape architect of Boston, and J..
Massey Rhind, sculptor of New York. In
all twenty-five plans were shown, and
they attracted a great deal Of attention.
The first of the new buildings erected
will be the Hall Of Philosophy, to replace
the one WHICH mas 1OT years inquired so
prominently In the graduating exercises
Of the assembly. It will be a large and Inn
posing structure Of stone. purely classical
in style. The cornerstone will be laid by
the Rev. Dr. Lyman Abbott on August 15,
if the trustees carry out their present
plans. Just what building will be next
taken up Is undecided, but it is likely
that the new Art Gallery and library Will
be started in the fall. A great deal of
preliminary landscape work will be done
It IS possible at this time to give a
brief description Of the general plan de-
oided on. The property will be bisected
| by two broad avenues. one extending from
the steamboat wharf to the land entrance
at the back Of the grounds, and the other
! running along the high ground at right
angles to it. A boulevard will engirdle the
entire 1S5 acres which constitute the prop
erty.

be created The intellectual buildings
