Many Precious Stones Have Been Dropped by Bathers. From tho Philadelphia Inquirer. The recent loss by a Chicago woman of fashion of n valuable diamond ear ring upon tho sands of Newport hn3 led to reminiscences of other similar losses. It has been computed that over $2,000,000 worth of Jewels are lost every season at American summer resorts. The greater part of these disappear at the seaside, and It Is believed that a comparatively small part are actually stolen. At the various summer resort hotels nt this time every bulletin board will be profusely placarded with notices offering all sorts of rewards for the finding or return of missing Jewels. Last year the loss of jewels frequently amounted to $10,000 in a single instance. At some of the most fashionable re sorts, such as Newport or Bar Harbor, the owners of very costly Jewels fre quently take the precaution of leaving the gems In some safe deposit vault In the city and sending all the way to town for them every time they are needed. That so much more jewelry Is lost proportionately in the summer than during the winter Is due to the rather foolish display which Is made of such valuables on hotel piazzas, tho sands, nnd even In tho ocean Itself. Tho bathers at the fashionable resorts sometimes Indulge In the caprice of ap pearing In the water wearing several thousand dollars' worth of diamonds. The chances of losing these trinkets while exercising or lying about on tho beach arc, of course, very great. The loss of Jewelry In this way Is con stantly causing much unjust suspic ion. A wealthy woman at Narragan sett last summer reported the loss of some $7,000 worth of jewels to tho hotel proprietor und suggested that the hotel employes might throw some light on the sublect. A careful investigation failed to reveal the Jewels, however, until early this summer, when the lady herself on returning to tho hotel found them under a loose board In tho floor where she hod herself placed them a year ago for safekeeping and complete ly forgotten them.

"My father," said littlo Harry to a lady visitor, "Is an awfully smart man. Why, ho can tell what time It Is without look ing at his watch." How can he tell'" nt-ked tho lady. "I don't know," replied the little fellow, "but when 1 ask him what tlmo it la In tho morning ho says it's time to get up. And when I ask him In the evening he says It's time to go to bed."

Girl Who la Now with the Ynqul Indians. From tho Chicago Record. The young Mexican girl, Maria Ter esa Urea, who Is devoutly believed by the Mexican Catholics to be endowed with divine power, Is now somewhere nmong thie Ynqul Indians in Sonora, Jlexlco, and, nlthough they are the fiercest tribe in that republic, and Ir reconcilable In their hostility to tho whiter, they rovero her ns a priestess, and they obey her ns if she were their queen. There is something Strang' about "Santa Teresa," as they call her She is a modest, unassuming Mexican girl, the daughter of. a small farmer in Sonora, with very little educatloi . but at nn early age she developed re markable hypoptlc or mesmeric pow ers, which cause tho Ignorant peasants to look upon hr as mon than hu man. A touch of her hand Is believed to 1)3 a euro for every mortal evil, and one of her prayers of Intercession n. passport to paradise. She does not claim divine power, but confesses that she does not understand the- source of her Influence. Her family were Catho lics, . but sho has never been strict In her observance of her religious du ties. At the same time she recog nizes that there Is something within her that gives her the unusual In fluence that sho enjoys. In 1890 I saw her nt El Paso, a plain-looking girl of twenty-one or twenty-two years, In a. speckled call") dress and coarse shoes, with a black shawl thrown over her head. Her hair fell in two braids to her waist, and she looked much younger than she real ly was. She was then living under tlu care of n gentleman named Aguirre, the editor of the Mexican paper Kl Paso, having been compelled to leavo Mtxiio by the authorities, who ac cused her of trying to Invite a revolu tion. A band of fanatics somehow got a notion that she was to be the mother of Montezuma, the lonpr-lookod-for Mexican Mesla)., who Is to liberate tho peons from servitude, and restoro th- splendor of the empire that Cortez plundered nnd overthrew. llcstlo'Js and dissatisfied politicians took advan tage of the mania nnd, In the iiaiiio of Saint Teresa organized a revolu tion In Sonorn. ond attacked the custom house and barracks at Nognles. Mr. Agulrro may have given the movement some encouragement, for ln Is an exile, and Is "wanted" by Hi. Mexican police. Hut I was assured that Teresa was not Involved In nnv way. Trustworthy people told me thn' she was just an ordinary sort of girl, vlthout any Kpeclal force of 'character or Intellect, but possessed of a mys terious power Ilk" that of the magnetic girl who came out of Georgia n fw years ago nnd seemed to havo tb strength of a locomotive In her slender lingers. Santa Teresa has some such physical peculiarity, which gives her n mesmeric inlluenee over people to whom It tnnv be npnllod. and she ban cured hundreds of lck. and lame and blind. The Mexican hang her pur trait oer their littlo shrines bosid" that of the Irsln Mary, hut whu w talked with her she laughed nt tho suggestion of her dlvln'ty, nnd Indig nantly denied that she was to be thf mother of the redeemer of the .zteo rnce. She Is now living among the Yaqul Indians in nn obscure moun tain village In Sonera, which Is con stantly vlplted by pilgrims and sick people In rearch of her healing power. Thero Is more Catarrh in this section of tho country than all other dlbeasts put together, und until tho lust few ean was supposed to bo Incurable For t great many years doctors pronounced n u lucal dlseufee. und proscribed local remedies, nnd by constantly falling ti euro with local treatment, pronounced It Incurable. Selenco has proven i-aturih to bo a constitutional disease, und thrrc foro requires constitutional treatment Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio, Is tha only constitutional cure on tho market. It Is taken Internally In doses from 10 drops to a tpnspoonful.' It.tycts directly on the blood nnd mucous surfaces of tho system. They offer 'one hundred dollars for nny cne it falts to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address F. J. CHKNKY, & CO., Toledo, O. Sold by Druggists, 76c. Hall's Family Pills nro tho best.
