BRITISH MUSEUM RECEIVES
AS GIFT PRIVATE COLLEC-
TON OF PRECIOUS STONES

London, Dec. 24.--The British
Museum has just received as a gift
one Of the finest private collections
of precious stones in Great Britain.
1t was gathered by the late Sir Ar
thur Herbert church, for many years
president of the Neurological So
ciety, discoverer of several new min
erals. and arthor of numerous i'm
portant scientific works.
The collection consists of more
than two hundred stones, mostly
mounted in rings, and every speci-
men unique. Sir Arthur devoted his
attention particularly to the pro-
ducts OF Ceylon and for many years
was able 70 secure the pick of the
rarer species Of gems that came to
light there. To the mineralogist the
prite of the collection is a magni-
fcent aurora-red specimen OF spes-
sartitc, variety of garnet that sell
dom provides stones large and clear
enough for jewelry purposes. Weigh
ing over six karats and beautifully
cut in the modern fashion, the stone
stands practically alone in the lit
erature Of gems.
The collection includes the most
varied series of zircons in existence,
and there are also excellent assort-
ments of tourmalines, topazes. emer-
aids, opals and spinels. The opals
include two fine stones of jet black

TIC Museum trustees have decided
TO store the collection for the pres
ent in place where it will be safe
from war and Zeppelin risks, and it
will therefore not be exhibited until
