Diamond Eyes.

In the beautiful church OF st. Paula
le Mura, in Rome, there are two dia'
monds set in a rather odd place.
These stones were given to the church
by Isabella II. OF Spain. Above the
column OF the inner alsles and tran
sent is a row of medallions OF all
the popes. These medallions, although
they look much smaller from the floor
are really five feet In diameter
Viewed from a certain position. the
eyes Of one of the popes seem to emit
lightning flashes at times and al
others TO glow with a lurid light
Those are the diamonds donated by
the Spanish queen.
