Mrs. Minchin of India
Flashes With Pre-
cious Gems.
Native Hindu Lady Daz-
zles Passengers on
the Korea.

Mrs. Frederick J. V. Minchin of In
dia, who arrived here yesterday on the
liner Korea. has the white lady who
rode the white horse beaten mile.
The white lady. in addition to having
rings on her fingers, wore bells on her
toes, but even with the tinkling toot-
sizes of her mounted rival as a handi-
cap the dark lady of the Korea is still
a winner.
Mrs. Minchin is a native of India.
Her father was a merchant of great
wealth. Her husband is an English
man who owns vast sugar plantations
near Calcutta Mr.. Minchin wears
diamonds, but, although some of the
stones are of great dimension,' he
wears them unobtrusively, set in
heavy gold bands, and, as did the lady
on the white horse, on his fingers.
Mrs. Minchin has much jewelry but
she wears it where it can be seen. Her
fingers flash like a live wire playing
in a puddle of water. Suspended to
the lobe of each ear are ornaments OF
rare workmanship. studded with pre-
cious stones. Mrs. Minchin's most
impressive decorations, however, are
the jewelry displays on the outside
wall of each nostril. Set in delicate
filagree of gold, the lady from India
wears on eacn SlOe OF neT nose d TOW
of pearls and diamonds. And she
wears them as il they had grown
there.
One of the korea's quartermasters,
.cl1ewing tobacco yesterday in
shady part of the deck and ever and
anon expectorating into the scupper
with the deliberate skill that comes
of long practice. stood back to allow
the lady from India TO pass When
She had gone he soliloquized as fol-
lows:
Rings is common and earrings
amt so rare, but why she riveted
them studs in her nose gets me-"
Mrs. Minchin is comely and has
dark eyes that flash brightly as any
of her jewels. When her husband
spoke to her yesterday her eyes glow
ed with a gentle light, but when
chance remark called attention to the
fact that the Hindu servant had for
gotten to give Mr.. Minchin his medi-
cine at noon Mrs. Minchin turned on
another kind of light as she told that
dark-visaged menial how little she
thought of him.
The Minchins are on their way to
England and expect to return to their
Indian home in about six months.

MADRID, May 29.-The preparations for
the marriage of King Alfonso and Princess
Victoria (as Princess Ena of Battenberg is
designated by the Spanish people) are fast
approaching elimination with the arrival
of foreign Princes and envoys, the influx
of vast throngs and the final adornment
of streets and buildings
Such spectacle of royal splendor. has
seldom been seen as when the Princes com
ing to the wedding arrived this afternoon.
The train of the Prince of Wales and the
Archduke Francis Ferdinand of Austria ar
rived at . 20 o'clock, followed by the
trains of Prince Albreeht of Prussia. the
Grand Duke Vladimir !, of Russia, Crown
Prince Constantine of Greece, Prince Albert
Leopold of Belgium. Prince Eugene of
Sweden and many others. Before the sta
ton were drawn up the Palace Guards,
with their white uniforms and shimmering
helmets, and a brigade of lancers with steel
breastplates. Awaiting the Princes were
the royal family, the infantas, the Captain
General of Madrid, the Ministers and the
ambassadors. The ladies were bright in
summer silks, while the officials and Min
listers were resplendent with gold lace and
decorations.
Z Trumpet blasts greeted the Prince of
Wales and Archduke Francis Ferdinand.
The former wore the uniform ofea British
general. The Princess of Wales was ex-
quisitely attired in figured silk gown and
the Archduke wore a white uniform of a
general of hussars, with silver helmet
surmounted' by vivid green plume.
There was another simmer of uniforms
and dresses as the royal representatives of
Germany. Russia and Greece arrived with
their retinues. Later there was brilliant
pageant as all the Princes and Princesses
with their retinues proceeded to the Prado
Palace. where King Alfonso and Princess
Victoria received, throughout the remainder
of the day The Prado Palace was the
center of the festivities tonight.
Tonight Alfonso and his guests witnessed
performance at the Prado Theater. one
quaint feature of which was a tableau of
an old Spanish marriage, suggestive of the
nuptials which are to take place on Thurs
day.

X-RAY LOCATES GEM
swallowed BY FAIR
THIEF IN A STORE
Operation Necessary to Remove
Diamond From Region Of
the Appendix.

OMAHA, Neb., May 29.-At last the
5000 diamond swallowed three weeks
ago by Miss Mae. Thomas in the jew
elry store of 7. L. Combs &, Co., has
been located by the x-ray process. A
proof from an x-ray plate showed that
the diamond has passed through the
stomach and become encysted near
the appendix, a sort of wall of mem
brane having formed around it. Ac-
cording to experts who have since ex-
amined Miss Thomas, the membrane
surrounding the diamond is infiamed
and will cause appendicitis, thereby
making an operation necessary.
1t was no easy task to locate the
stone with the X-ray, because Miss
Thomas was so nervous. Finally the
attending surgeons administered NOR
phine and the photograph was made
while she calmly slept.
At first the location of the diamond
could not be discovered on the plate,
but after a proof had been developed
ii could be seen in remarkably plain
outlines. According to the surgeons
the jewel cannot be removed from the
woman's stomach without an opera
ton and this cannot be performed
without the womans consent.
But said one surgeon, '.inflamma-
ton has set in and it may be neces-
sary to perform an operation in order
to save the woman's life. So near to
the appendix is the diamond lodged
that it will likely cause appendicitis. =
Miss Thomas is languishing in the
Douglass County Jail, living in mortal
fear that she will be chloroformed
while asleep and an operation per-
formed on her and the jewel returned
to its rightful owner.
'1'll die before I'll let them per-
form an operation said Miss Thorn
as, when apprised of the fact that such
a thing was probable. Il told the sur
geons and detectives all the time that
/ had swallowed the diamond, but I'm
not going to let them kill me. I'll be
lust as> anxious for Combs to have
back his diamond as he is to get it
but I'm sure the law won't let them
murder me. in an effort to cut it out
of me-.
On May / Miss Thomas was arrest
ed in Combs jewelry store by detec-
tives, who saw her gulp down the dia-
nlond Soon after being arrested the
woman confessed she had swallowed
the jewel.
