HISTORY OF TWO BLACK DIAMONDS. On-Tlm SpnnlnH Crown Jnwoln In p ul . MfHßlon of ail American. Just now, when everything concern lug Spain is of more or loss Interest, a couple of one-time Jewels of the Spanish crown nttrnet more than usual attention. Thev are two won derful black ponrls, which, originally coming from the far East, have found their way to America byway of tho Spanish crown. It was a good many years ago, when Spain was a powerful nation, that the jewels were placed In the crown. Perhaps black pearls, which seem nn appropriate emblem for the proud and haughty Dons, are not their lucky stones. At any rate they remained in the possession of the royal family for 300 years, but in the meantime the Spanish heads that wore the crowns had been proverbially un easy, and the fortunes of the country were not as bright as they had been. One king, perhaps a little more su perstitious than the others, had the dark gems removed from the crown to make room for stoues of more cheer ful appearance. It was after that that Napoleon's troops invaded the coun try and a Spanish officer of the royal troops, displaying great gallantry, was rewarded with the black pearls which had been crown jewels. They did not prove to be lucky stones, and eventu ally they found their way to America, and now belong to the private collec tion of precious stones of Mrs. Cella Whipple Wallace, who is called the "Diamond Queen" of Chicago. Mrs. Wallace ha not only a won derful collection of diamonds, but of opals, of which she is particularly fond, and the black pearls are a unique feature of her collection. She wears them in a brooch, one set In tlie brooch proper surrounded by an army of diamonds, and the other also surrounded by diamonds and sus- i pended by a jeweled chain. How are the mighty fallen when the jewels of the Spanish crown are worn by a Chicago "Diamond Queen."—New 1 York Times. THIMBLES FOR PLAYING THE PIANO. And" Also Kr Typlntw. Sld to Save the Nervrs of tlt* Worker. Thimbles for pianists and typists— that is something new for you. Either of these young ladles tinds that inces sant use of the lingers pounding on the ivories all tiny long, or for six. seven or eight hours In rapid aunt constant manner. Is very nervous work. The tips of the lingers nre nerve centers. In fact, the most sensitive part of the entire body is the end of the linger. IT this nerve center comes in harsh contaet with the solid ivory keys thou- 1 saiuls of times during the day—in fact | one might say millions of times- think . what a strain on the nervous system. It is no wonder that these Ivory ma- | nipulators of either sort give out and become nervous wrecks in the course of time. Some physicians have even j gone so far as to say that a typewriter cannot retain lier vigor of nerve for longer than live years, and It is well known that a pianist often has ner vous prostration. These new thimbles are made of rublter and intended to lessen the shock to the nerve centers. They are made to tit the ends of the lingers as the glove lingers tit. They are made in sets according to the size of the glove worn, and can be ordered in tliat way. Of course tlie typewriter does not need full sets, hut tlie lingers which are used the must will be greatly relieved by their use. A pneumatic ring cushion forms the end of tho thimble. In making a num ber of carbon copies the amount of strength required is lessened by their use. It is said that the speed is also increased at least ten per cent. It is certain that they save tlie ends of tiie lingers from becoming enllous or cracked, and save tlie nails from breaking and splitting.—New York Herald. , SINGULAR NAVAL ACCIDENTS. One Slit,, Taken Over a Town und Hack Again l,y a Tidal Wave. Curious accidents to our warships characterized the early history of our uavy. When the government built ten new gunboats to prosecute the war against Tripoli, In 1805, they were sent out as soon as they were finished and before they were named. Each one was given a number and dis patched to tlie scene of the war. No. 7 sailed from New York June 20, ISOS, under command of Ueuteuant Ogel vle, and after she cleared Sandy Hook light slip was never heard from again. She went down with all on Iniard l>e fore she had ever been named. A most extraordinary accident hap pened to the corvette Monongahela at Santa Cruz in 1807. Whlie at anchor in the harbor a tremendous ti dal wave lifted her upon its crest and carried her clean over the town of Frederielistiult nnd back again with out injuring the town or the boat to any great extent The receding wave landed her on the beach instead of In the deep waters of the harbor, nnd It cost our government $lOO,OOO to float her again. Fully as strange was the fate of the sloop of war Watcree. She was an chored in the harbor of Ariea, Peru, In 1868, when a huge tidal wave swept inland and flooded the whole city. The wave carried tlie sloop several miles inland, nnd finally landed her in the midst of a tropical forest. It was Impossible to release her from such a peculiar position, and the government sold her for a nomlnni sum. The pur chasers turned the vessel into a hotel, and the remains of the once formida ble war vessel loom up in the tropical forest to-fb'" as a monument to tlie power of tidal waves.—.Leslie's Week ly* _ M .Hi 13 POLYGAMY REVIVING! Tim Presbyterian* Allege That It la, and the Press Sustains Tliem, The revival of polygamy in Utah is a live question. Religious politicians are stirred as never since her admis sion to Statehood. Suppressed mut teriugs are heard all over the State. Tlie Salt Hake Hee says "As to the existence of polygamy in Utah, no one doubts it, and that tt lias increased since Statehood is known to all who have opportunities of observation. Not only have old family relations been re sumed, but new marriages have been contracted and are being contracted almost dally. Those who protest that there is no polygamy in Utah assume that the people of Utah are a class of chumps. The Church apologists claim there have been no plural mar riages since the manifesto. May lie not; hut men in the Church who have had one or more wives have taken other women to their homes and sup- | ported them as wives. No matter wliat It is called, the polygamy ques tion is going to get u good sliiTiug up. The Otiureli leaders, of course, in tlie face of the manifesto, would not ad mit that polygamy is now being prac tised, and in order to keep out of trou ble from man mnue laws they solemn- I ly deny it Hut tiioy justify this de ception on the ground that polygamy Is commanded by Hod." And tho SpringVille Independent lias this to say; "The arraignment can not be safely ignored. It does not charge, as some of the press seem to Infer, that polygamous marriages are not Ik'lng solemnized. It does charge that authorintive persons are teach ing flint celestial marriages are an es sential part of -Mormon faith, that Cod is a polyganiist. and that Jesus Christ was the husband of three wives. Nothing of recent years In re iigous matters has succeeded in stir ring iqi such a tremendous excitement, aud it must he Act an answered. •Ton may hear a priest comfort the mourners at the funeral of a young man who lias died without having en tered wedlock, with the promise to seal a wife to hint In heaven. And women go to tlie temples aud are mar ried to dead men." BALKY HORSE CONQUERED. Willi N More FoetuMtibl* Weapon Tlun H I'liddl*', "I have owned nnd used many horses," said a resident of I.envision, "among which were several balky ones. 1 once owned a team, the best one I ever had, that at times were stubborn and ugly and would not work. One morning when we were going out in tlie field with a heavy load we came to a steep pitch in the road, the nigh horse, us usual, flared up and then the other. We tried to stsirt theui by coaxing and by using the lash, lint it was no use; they re fused lo move. At last I became in furiated and would have killed the horses with a good will, hut it was of no avail. I left the team standing there that morning, went hack to the house aild decided to leave tliem there, when a thought struck me that proved successful. "I took a wide hoard and, making it Into the shape of a paddle, proceeded to the Held. Oltee more we tried the horses, hut it was no use; they were determined not to move- Taking the weapon which I had made, I struck first olio horse, then the other a few blows, and to m.v great surprise they started at a rapid rate. After that I always kept the paddle-shaped wea pon in my wagon and when they re fused duty I merely had to show It to tliem. 1 have tried this same rule on many other horses and I never knew it lo full." "What is your theory? It certainly cannot lie the hardness of the blow?" "My theory Is that the animals ure started from fright, caused by the jar of the board." —I.ewWton, Me., Jour nal.

Throw your revolver away and let us forget onr quarrel!" "It isn't a revolver." he replied, as he caught her in i.'.s arms. "It ts a monkey wrench I borrowed from you that day my wheel broke down.

HAItMAN, 11-3-4 C. Auditor. thought of I)r. William* Pink Pills for rale People and concluded to try them. In the morning I went to the drug atore and pure baaed a box ol the pills und commenced using tliem according to directions. "It was the wisest thing 1 ever did. On the third night alter commencing their use I went to bed und slept all night without o particle of pain. I continued taking the puis until I used five boxes and have not fell any symptoms of my old trouble since that time, now two years ago. "Just after I stoppedtheuseof the pills 1 met with an accident. In chopping wood I cut my foot very hadiy, the axe going clear through the instep ot my foot. It wna thought the wound would he very hard to heal for a man of my age, liuttothesurpri.se of everybody it healed quickly without nny difficulty. I attribute this also to the good condition of my blood through the use ol the pills." In rheumatism the blood lias an acid im purity which irritates the sensitive tissues that unite the joints und cover the muscles, thus causing those indescribable tortures which rheumatic sutlerera endure. Ithciinintism is always dangerous as it is liable to attack the heart. Years ago those afflicted, were tiled; ns if taking away some of the impure* Mood could remedy the balance. This folly has been abandoned, and to-day physicians prescribe ami druggists recommend the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, as these marvelous vegetable pills go directly to the seat of the trouble exerting a powerful influence in purifying and enriching the blood by eliminating poisonous elements and renew ing health-giving forces, thus making a potent remedy fhr curing this disease.
