purchases are well worth glancing at.
on Aug. /, 1885, he bought two dia-
mond buttons for 1886. francs, and
seventy-five diamond buttons for $780,
703 francs. The buttons for a single
vest cost Louis 10000. OF the 1854
"boutonnieres" used, 162 contained FIVE
diamonds each, while the remainder
were single diamonds. In all, the
Great Monarch" is said to have spent
a round million pounds sterling on
buttons alone.
Few things are more astonishing to
those who cannot afford such extrava-
gances as costly jewels than the enor-
nous sums paid for pearls. The Ouch
ess Of Marlborough has among her
countless jewels a string. two yards
long of perfectly matched. and, at the
same time, almost matchless pearls,
once the property of Catherine OF Rus
sia. Some Of the pearls. for which the
whole world was ransacked, are half
an inch in diameter, and the value of
the necklace is estimated at G200, 900.
More astonishing still was the price
paid some time ago by NJ. Tavernier
for a single pearl, which was the prop
erty OF an Arab merchant. NJ. Tav-
ernier Travelled TO Africa in the hope
OF buying the Jewel for e25,00O at
the outside; but before II became his
property he had TO hand over no less
than 9ll0,000. The pearl is the lar

NEW Y0RK'S YOUNG SCULP-
TOR WHO WON $4,000 PRIZE.

The Pride of His Father, DIR. .Shrady,
is the Sons Artistic Achievements.
New York, July 30.-The papers are
printing appreciative sketches of Henry
Merwin Shrady, the 30-year-old sculp-
tor, who has taken the $4,000 prize for
the design for a monument to Gen.
Grant in Washington, and commenting
on the fact that he is the son of DR..
George F. Shrady, who was one of Gen.
Grants physicians in his last illness.
To say that DR.. Shrady is proud of
his sons artistic talents and achieve
ments would be putting it mildly.
Years ago he considered his son more
promising in his line than any other
young American. The remarkable re-
cent successes of the young man are
going a long way to justify his fathers
pride and belief in him.
DR.. Shrady is one of the most in
teresting men now on the stage of ac-
tive life here in New York. He is one
of the links, now becoming less numer-
Gus every year, which bind the COM
pick present to the simpler past. He
has seen the whole life Of the metrop-
oils pass through one of the most re-
markable changes that ever came to a
great city.
Unlike many of the towns prominent
citizens, he is New Yorker by birth.
His father was a doctor before him,
and when George F. was a lad the
boys belonging to Well-to-do families
attended the public schools here in
town instead of being sent into the
country to get their training at some
private school. They also formed them
selves into gangs" much as the tough
lads of the East Side do now. Some
of the doctors best stories have to do
with the battles the boys of the va
rious neighborhoods used to wage upon
each other.

When DR.. Shrady was lad, the
servants of nearly all the well-to-do
families were negroes. Now the negro
servant is practically unknown in the
houses Of society folk.
The old-time negro house servants
had many good qualities, not the least
of which was personal loyalty to the
family in which they were employed.
They had some defects, too. but 1t
was not because of these that they
were discarded 1t was because as the
rich of New York Travelled more and
more abroad and became more closely
connected with Society" as IL Is con-
stituted on the other side, they be-
came more and more initiative. The
change from the negro servant to the
imported servant from England

came about In a very few years. It
was practically complete more than
a decade ago During the time it was
in progress many curious things hap

Paris, April 12.-The Russian am

structions from Foreign Minister
Lamsdorff, has expressed to Foreign
Minister Delcasse the satisfaction of
Russia at the conclusion of the Anglo
French colonial treaty. This is &C.

ports that the Anglo-French treaty
was indirectly hostile to Russia In
the course of an interview M. Nelidoff
Is quoted as saying that M. Delcasse
advised him several weeks ago con-
corning the negotiations and the au-
thorities at St. Petersburg were kept
informed OF the developments concern
ing Newfoundland, Siam and some Of
the other questions involved. M. Nell
doff said Russia had no interest in
these questions as they have no inter-
national importance, but concerning
Morocco and Egypt, the ambassador
continued, Russia felicitates France
on the happy solution. He said:

Of German Southwest Africa:

enemy's chief force, about 5000
strong, at Onganjira. The Hereros

the center and right. Two energetic
counter attacks of the enemy against
our left were repulsed. The enemy's

then returned to their proper stations.
Newcomb, Company X, Seventeenth
infantry, and Wampler, Company D.
Twenty-third infantry, were killed.
Every effort was made to bring the
Moros to terms peacefully, but in each
instance our troops were attacked be-
fore firing shot and force was only
used when all peaceful methods failed
and the enemy attacked US. The two
chiefs who have been at the bottom
of all the trouble on the east side of
Lanao for two years are now in hiding
and they will be arrested If possible.
