A MONSTER DIAMOND.
Latest Addition to Worlds Great

What is said to be the biggest dia-
mond i'm the world is reposing I'm a
bank on Holborn Viaduct in London,
quite close TO the home of the dia-
mond merchants I'm Hatton Garden.
The very name of the bank is kept a
profound secret. And so careful n
matter is the showing OF the stone to
the representatives OF Oriental prin-
ces. TO commercial syndicates and in.
ternational associations of diamond
dealers that a number OF crystal fac
SMILES have been made and pros
pective buyers have TO be satisfied
with these replicas.
If, however. IL is seen that they
mean business the insurance com.
pany is notified and. according 90 the
American Magazine, n heavy premi-
um paid by the owners for the re-
moval of the stone from the strong
room of the bank.
This gem is twice as big as the
biggest egg the biggest hen ever laid
weighs a pound and a third and is
invaluable. Nobody knows what II is
worth, but $5.000,O00 is a reasonable
price.
So prosaic is the civilized com.

ure was merely sealed up i'm n tin

Scarcity of Platinum.

A prominent French writer de-
plores the vanishing stock of the
worlds platinum. All the known de-
posts are becoming exhausted, and
the price is going up to a prohibitive
extent. In 1876 the metal could be
bought for 500 the kilogram. Four
years later it had doubled; in 1901
1t had quadrupled and today the
price is $1,000 a kilogram, or twice
the price of gold Even that is for
crude platinum. The worked metal is
twice as dear again. Considering
how many industries are now abso-
lutely dependent on platinum, the
question of replacing it by some real
~ efficient alloy or combination is
