NEW DESIGNS IN JEWELRY.
Odd Brooches, Gold Mesh Purse and
Thin, Large Watches.

From the Jewellers Circular Weekly.
One Of the oldest brooches seen for some
time is an oblong half round turquoise set
entirely free, with the exception Of four
diamonds, a single stone being at either
end and at the top and bottom.
/. Turaoise matrix Is seen as the center fol
little pins, brooches or ornaments in con-
junction with open work In diamonds.
Fascinating little gold mesh purses just
the size required for car fares are q very
useful trinket to find place In the shopping
bag.
Very beautiful is an extremely long string
OF round matched pearls which is finished
with clasp formed Of four large diamonds.
A necklace that is wholly. Individually
and eminently stylish shows q very narrow,
close. lacelike diamond band set with three
diamond clusters spaced across the front.
To each cluster is attached single large
diamond topping an oblong drop stone.
Two choice Opals about an inch In length.
with a somewhat longer one In the middle,
the shapes being narrow at the top and
closely attached to the diamonds from
which they swing, complete this elegant
new design.
OF artistic character and essentially re-
fined in expression is an exquisite orna-
ment embodying an extremely large pear
shaped oriental pearl as an important CEN
ter for the surrounding fancy scrolls in
diamond work which form most effective
alliance.
A diamond collarette representative of
one open style consists of a serpentine vine
with each curve containing single cluster
Of conventional leaves that oils but little
OF the space. effecting daringly severe
conclusion. A row Of diamonds at the top
and bottom forms the edges of the design.
Exquisitely manipulated in diamond work
are some new designs that strike a dis
tinctly original note in close effects. A
subtle cachet arrived at by means known
to the elect distinguishes this most dell
cate style. A notable example is shown
In q pendant in which the central stone is
q marquise shape framed in small diamonds
and set in a figure which might well have
been copied from some beautiful fine lace.
"A word or two anent new designs in very
thin. large watches. Delightfully."- novel are
the cases. beautifully enamelled in some
fine conventional pattern. almost or entirely
filing the space. In which two. three or
more colors are employed. A unique fea-
ture consists Of delicate enameled chains.
in the new nat style. which are attached.
These short chains are formed OF very
narrow. thin. enameied shapes with round
Or pointed ends connected by pegs or gold
links and matching the case as In IRE
style OF some small watches recently noted.

MUSIC HALLS HERR AND ABROAD
A Visiting Manager Suggests That
One ON London Lines Would Pay.

OAS VA 4On0On 1SAu08 " VoA0 w
From the New YORK Sun
An English music hall manager who was
recently In this country told sun reporter
that he- would be glad to invest capital In
music hall in this city II he could be as
sured that somebody else would not imme-
diately put up another and make profit for
either one OF them out Of the question.
That was the experience of the two music
halls on the foreign plan that existed here
a few years ago. One was prosperous.
Then another was built and both went to
pot. because there were mot attractions or
public enough to support both.
It IL surprise to me- said this man.
ager. who Is interested In half dozen
music halls In England. ITO find that New
York does not possess one Of the model to
De found In every European capital. From
Rome to Christiania their programs are
about the same. Sometimes q comedian or
woman who sings couplets may treat the
audience to bit of the vernacular. but as
a rule the same show would do for the two
cities most widely separated. Even the
english women who go on the continent to
sing are after o while led into the use OF
French In order to make their acts more In
accordance with those Of the other actors.
and the American women who go over
there to sing coon songs soon eliminate all
the American features.
Inc minute tbs continuous theaters were
tried here they proved 80 much better
suited to American Institutions that the
music hall was doomed. None OF the for
eisn music halls gives two shows a day. 1t
Is necessary here on account Of the profits
made by the afternoon performances. Con-
tinuous fheaters are intended for families.
The music halls abroad are not, although
one sees domestic groups in them at times.
The music hall Of the European capital is .
place In which one may loaf and smoke a
cigar with his drink. Such place Will
certainly appeal to the New York public,
especially II it be properly designed.
Many New Workers. who have long been
wanting place to go to later than the
theaters begin will welcome the kind OF q
music hall to be built here They will at
least be assured that they will e1cape the
dramatic sketch.
1.-The new music hall will find it's greatest
success with the New York public. for a
while at least. in clinging as closely as pos
sible to the foreign model as it exists in
London and Paris"
