  of each of the five arches, one of which the famous Nesca stone, was sormoun- ted as to swing with every movement of the wearer's head, flashing beams of light in every direction. The cor onet's value Is placed at $100, 900 and it is whispered in court circles that the Duchess intended 1t to outshine the Queens. which is considered to have been extremely bad taste. though people are pretty careful about saying so.

 The Duchess of Norfolk, wife of the Earl Marshal, master of to-day's cer- l emonies. had upon her head a crown composed of a high garland of dia- mond oak leaves and acorns, the badge | of her husbands family for genera tions. The acorns were each formed of a single stone.
