THE SANCY DIAMOND.
btMestlaa- History. of tae
gundlM BrilllfU
'One of the best known-diamonds in
Europe down to the 0I030 of the lart
century was the famous Sanoy. As is
the case with all prominent gems of
this species, many legends, some of a
pleasant, some of a painful character,
are connected with it. One legend of
the Sancy is thus narrated:
The beautiful diamond inventoried as
the Sanoy, and of the weight of 35 1-iQ
carats, and valued at 1,000,000 francs,
was stolen and never recovered. This
gem has been associated with the
fortunes of the redoubtable Burgundian
warrior, Charles the Bold; and its his
tory has done more to perpctuato his
name than the record of all his mis
deeds and his desperate battles. Tt
prove, however, that this is the iden
tical gem lost by the Swiss wSl be a
difficult task, for the antiquaries have
unearthedmore Sancy diamonds than
there were Richmonds in the field. The
name of Sancy has, indeed, become
famous by embracing in one story the
fortunes of three distinct gems. The
erudite King has patiently traced out
the traditions connected with the name
Sancy, and appears to prove that three
stories insteaa of one arc included in
tho history of Baron Sancy. But the
stono that was stolen from tho French
casket in 1792 is inventoried at tho
weight of 33 13-16 carats, while the
gem that has lately gone-back to India,
and is supposed to be tho stolen gem,
weighs quite fifty-four carats. Here is
a now mystery for the antiquaries to
elear away; or did -Bclatrc and his as
sociates, who mado out this inventory
with exceeding care, write thirty in
stead of fifty-three? The history of
theso diamonds are so interesting that
wo will attempt to repeat them here,
following, in part, the views of King.
Not long after the invention, by Bcrq
nen, of diamond-cutting by the proc
ess of abrasion, Charles the Bold, then
in tho full blaze of martial glory, sub
mitted to him three largo rough dia
monds. The native of Bruges succeed
ed so well in polishing them that
Charles presented him with tho prince
ly sum of 3,000 ducats. One of thes
gems Charles gave to Pope Soxtus IV.,
and it was mounted in tho tiara, where
it is said to remain. The second wa
presented to Louis XL of France; whir
tho third was reserved by the Bnrgnn
dian hero, and set ingrotesqno manner
to bo worn as a personal ornament
This jewel, of true barbaric design,
was formed of a triangular shape, with
the newly-cut diamond in the center.
This diamond was five-eighths of an
Inch in its widest diameter, and was
shaped as a pyramid, with the apex cut
into a four-rayed star fn relief. Around
tho gem was set three largo Bafaw nr
bios and four magnificent pearls, each
more than half an inch in diameter.
One of the Fuggcr family in
1555, made a careful drawing of
the jewel, with a written description
of it, and these wero afterward pub
lished by Lcmbcccius in his ' 'Bibliotheca
Cassarca;1" so there can be no doubt
about the appearance of the original
diamond of Charles the Bold in its
early days. When the Duke led his
baud of freebooters into Switzerland on
his long-projected foray, he took most
of his gems along with hhn, not dream
ing of disaster, and probably loving to
view his treasures even amid the hard
ships of the campaign. Rough soldiers
are sometimes as fond of the beautiful
in art and nature as more delicate and
refined organizations, and Charles the
Bold and Souvaroff arc not the only
examples. Tho terrific onslanght of
the Swiss at Grandson crushed tho
Burgundian ranks so quickly that
Charles had only time to escape with
his sword, leaving all his cherished
treasures in the hands of the dauntless
mountaineers.
"In the sack of the camp which
speedily followed the rout, a soldier
found the golden box in which the
famous petulant was kept, but regard
ing the jewel as a gaudy and worthless
bauble, ho tossed it away under a
wagon and retained tho box
only. Shortly afterward he began
to suspect that tho contents of
so beautiful a box must havs
some value, and. returning to tho place,
he recovered tho despised jowel. He
did not long after retain his treasure,
but sold it to a priest for one florin. The
priest also did not appear to have a
high regard for his purchase, for he
disposed of it to tho magistrates of his
own canton for thrco francs. When it be
came known that tho Berneso Govern
ment had possession of tho Duke s
famous jewels. Jacob Fngger, one of
the members of the celebrated Nurem
berg family, went to Berne ami nego
tiated for their purchase. The famous
pendant, together with the Duke's cap,
which was mado of silk covered with
pearls and Balais rubies, and a plume
case set wkh diamonds, pearls and
Balias rubies were bought for the sum
of 47,000 francs. Fugger retained tho
pendant in his possession at Nurem
berg for many years, indulging in tho
nope, it has been said, that the Duke's
great grandson, the Emperor Charles
V., would purchase it as a family relic.
When the celebrated capitalist died tho
ornament was still in his po?session,but
his great nephew, who inherited tho
jewel, sold it to Henry VIII. of Eng
land. After the death of this monarch
his daughter-presented the diamond to
her bridegroom, and thus, by a remark
able coincidence, and after an absence
of seventj'-six years, tho royal gem war
again restored to the rightful heir of it
original owner. Si. Louis Globc-Dcm

SMART MAJOR.
A Dot; That Knew How to Itefcaww Him
self at Chnrch.
Ionco visited a pleasant country
house, tho owner of which had a power
ful and sagacious dog called Major.
This dog was highly prized by his
master and by the people of the neigh
borhood. He had saved many lives.
Once when a swing-rope became en
tangled around the neck of a little girl,
Major held her up until help came.
One day the butcher brought in his
bill for Major's provisions. Major's
master thought it altogether too large,
and shaking the paper angrily at the
dog, he said: .
4 'See here, old fellow, you never ate
all that moat did you?"
Tho dog looked, hard at the bill,
shook himself all over, regarded tho
bntohor with contempt, and then went
back to his rug, where he stretched
himself out with a low growl of dis
. satisfaction.
The next Sunday, just as service
began at the village' chnrch; inter my
friend's pew vaulted Major.
The Major kept perfectly quiet until
we all arose for prayer; then he sprang
upon the seat; stood on his hina-legs,
placed his fore-paw upon the front of
the pew behind; and stared gravely and
reproachfully into the face of the
bHtcher, who looked very, much con
fused, and turned first red and then
pale. Thewhole'congregation vsaiicd
and tittered. Major's master at onee
took the dog home. But the butcher
was more considerate in Iris charges
from that r6me. Evidently he "felt
atortlfied and conscience-stricken.

STRANGE PHENOMENA.
The Temperature Upon Fishes and Upon
Hen.
A curious phenomenon is reported
from Smyrna, Florida, as occurring dur
ing tho recent cold wave which destroyed
mangroves and oranges to an almost
unprecedented extent. Peoplo are said
to have picked up quantities of fish that
were cither dead or so stupefied by tho
cold as to float helplessly. Tt would bo
interesting to know whether these fish
were really dead or only ljng in a state
of torper. Ho-wot ftbmsy bo, fhe
occurrenco suggests sombtqunies upon
tho effect of temperature upon fishes in
their native element
A little reflection leads to tho conclu
sion that, although tho changes in the
temperature of large bodies ofwator arc
never so rapid or sd wide in their range
as the changes of the temperature in the
air Over them, the effect of such changes
in abstracting heat from or imparting
beat to living at inanimate bodies must
bo far greater in, water than in air.
The specific heat of air is only 0.238
that of water, and a pint of water weighs
nearly as ranch as 18 cubic feet of air at
ordinary density. Ileneo a change of
one degree in tho temperature of a pint
of water represents as great an actual
heat change as a change of one degree
in about 55 cubic feet oi air. Both bodies
impart heat by contact in the same
manner, but by the immensely larger
volume capacity of water for heat than
that possessed by air, the effect of con
tact is very much more intense for a
given difference of temperature with
water than with air. Men or animals
can pass from air at a temperature of
60 deg. Fab. into a body of air even be
low the freezing point and remain for
short periods without feeling even dis
comfort. This is done almost hourly in
large breweries employing powerful re
frigerating apparatus, and in large meat
refrigoraling establishments, wherein
the temperature is maintained below 40
deg. Fah,; and the writer has often,
without even a coat, passed from a tem
peraruro of over 80 deg. Fah. into a room
where water was rapidly freezing, and
tho temperature was not moro than 16
deg. Fah. It is highly probable
that to enter water at S2 deg.
from a temperature of 80 deg. or if?
deg. would either produce death or se
rious disorder to most kinds of warm
blooded animals. The shock is quite
severe, in vcrj warm weather, from a
plunge into water at CO dog. A gradrml
change would, of course, be less severely
felt, but a plunge from air at 20 deg.
Fah. into water at 32 deg. Fah. by :t
person having on the ordinary clothing,
and. for that reason having the
surface oi the body not cooler than
50 dog. Fah., would be more than any
weak constitution could sustain without
sorions injury or even danger.
Changes in the temperatnrc of water
in large masses, resnltmg from changes
in the temperature of tTio atmosphere,
ire, from the nature of tho two sub
stances, very gradual, no matter how
violent flio atmospheric change. It
seems, then, somewhat remarkable that
during tho cold experienced in Florida
fishes should bo killed. It is, however,
to bo remembered that theso fishes aro
living substantially in tropical waters,
and that ice formed during the cold
wave, in small bodies of water, an inch
in thickness. The temperature of tho
water from which the fishes were picked
up most, therefore, have approached
quite closely to the freezing point; and
there aro many tropical nshes and
marine animals that would soon die
when exposed to such a temperature.

WOMEN AND BIRDS.
A Cruel Fashion Whlcli 1a Uu worthy of
American Women.
Women were onco taunted with their
devotion to their canaries. A moro se
rious accusation can now be brought
against them. Tho alarming decrease
of American song and shore birds has
been deplored by lovers of naturo for
many vcars. It has been due in part to
unavoidable causes, such as tho drain
ago of marshes, the conversion of wood
lands into farms, tho destruction of for
osts and rapid settlement of tho country
bnt a much larger share of tho oxtermi
nation of bird-bfe Is directly attributable
to feminine folly. An mferesting and
valuablo supplement of Science discloses
tho magnitudo of tho ovfl and suggests
legislative remedies. It is plain, how
ever, that tho friends 01 the birds can not
hopo to accomplish their pnrpose by
means of legislation unless they
can appeal successfully to pub
lic sentiment for adequate sup
port and encouragement. Sin
gularly enough, they must begin by de
claring war upon modern fashions
and enlisting the sympathies of sensible
American women. Wanton and im
provident as is tho destruction of birds
for sport, food and scientific and ama
teur collections, the slaughter is mainly
conducted for the millinery trade.
Some of the details of this wholesale
sacrifice of bird-life on tho altar of
fashion arc of startling significance.
At Cape Cod 40,000 terns have been
killed in tho season by a single agent
of the hat trade. At Cobb's Island, on
the Virginia coast, an enterprising
business woman of Now York has re
cently succeeded in filling a contract
with a Paris millinery firm for 40,000
birdskins of gulls, sea-swallows and
tern's, at 40 cents apiece. The demand
for egret and heron plumes has ex
tended the lino of slaughter from Flor
ida all along the Gulf coast. In Texas
sportsmen receive orders from New
York for the plumes of white egrets
in lots of 10,000. Tho prairies
and mountain vales of tho far
West arc scoured for birds of
small sisos and every variety of plum
age, and from the Pacific coast hun
dreds of thousands of bird-skms aro
shipped annually. Nearer home the
coast line of Long Inland, onco one of
the favorite haunts of sea-birds, has been
tho sceno of indisorimate butchery.
Terns and sea-swallows have well-nigh
disappeared from tho marshes between
Coney Island and Fire Island, which ten
years" ago were their breeding-ground.
At Seaford, Moriches, Greonport and
many other towns the slaughter of birds
for the millinery trade is a lucrativo
means of livelihood; and the New Jer
soy coast is ravaged in the most merci
less manner. The land-birds suffer in
the same way. Robins, gold-winged
woodpeckers, humming-birds, thrushes,
orioles, cedar wax-wings, blue-birds and
meadow larks aro shot by tho thousand
and the skins and plumago sent to the
shops to be used in frivolous ornitho
logical displays in female head-dress.

PREVENTION OF DISEASE.

If "an ounce of prevention is worth a

A Story by a Briclclaycr.
"Do wo ever stop to think about tho
people who are eompidled to pa3 under
us?" said a bricklayer; "ye., we. do, and
often, too. People don't seem to under
stand iiow careful we arc not to drop
bncfc' or pieces when working over
sidewalk:). I've been working on tho
li!:uu, ai:d the folk? going to and from
tho Kork irfhi:i:I station nave persisted
in walking under tho scaffolding, though
Mr. Grilb'th has kept 'Danger Keep
Out" signs up all the time. Guess I'll
have to tell you the story of tho man
who canio along under mo one day just
as I let a brick fall. It is a story of
such presence of mind ns you donrl
often find in this world, I tell you, and
as lo the other world I don t know
nothing about it What I mean fa tha!
it was the kind of presence of mind yon"
read about and rarely or never sec
Well, I let a brick fall and It went at
sailing down. I called out as loud as I
could: 'Look out below!' Then I goi
a look. On the ground below was a'
man. and tho brick was going so
straight for him that if he had stepped
back'a few feet it would havo hit him
sure. I knew the man would jump ono
way or the other peoplo always do
when suddenly alarmed and on tho
way he lumpen ins satoty aeponnort.
As tho thought Hashed through my
mind that icoplo usually jump back
ward on such occasions, I felt as If that
man's life could not have been insured
then for 99 cents annual premium on
the dollar. But ho didn't jump at all.
Ho threw his eyc3 up, sighted tho brick,
and walked along as calmly as if thero
was no danger near. The brick struck
within eight feet of him, and made a
hole in a ooard big enough to give ono
an idea of tho effect it would have had
upon a man's head. This may seem
like a little thing to you, but it struck
me as being one of tho neatest exhibi
tions of presence of mind I ever heard
of." Chicayo Herald.
A Curious Havings Bank.
Soiuo years ago, an old wooden bridge
spanned the Schuylkill river at the foot
of Pcnn street, Heading, Pa. In the
course of time a more substantial
structure was dcomed necessary, and
the timbers of the old bridgo wore care
fully taken apart, and reserved for use
in repairing and rebuilding tho smaller
county bridges. While preparing some
of this old timber for its new use, a few
days ago, it became necessary to saw off
several feet from a heaw piece, which
was to be used as a ginfor in a small
bridge under contemplation. When
the end portion dropped to tho ground,
tho workman was astonished to hear a
jingling sound as of gold and silver
coin. A summons of such good onion
insured a speedy investigation, which
resulted In finding eagles, half eagles,
silver dollars, halves, and quarters
mixed together in careless confusion.
Tho source of supply was found in a
section about eighteen inches in length
and five inches deep, which had been
hollowed out of tho log with anger and
chisel. An inch thick cover had been
fitted ovor the opening so cleverly and
sealed with so mneh care that detection,
other than accidental, was hardly pos
sible. Tho treasure had been confined
In a home-knit woolen stocking, and as
tho saw enfe off tho toe, a part of tho
contents was discharged.
The value of the deposit, though re
ported to bo considerable, was not mado
Sublic Tho nionoy was probably hid
en away a number of years ago, i
specimens of three, five, tonk fwenlyi
five, and fifty cent scrip, nicely folded
np in a piece of writing paper, were
among tho contents. Not a line in
dicated tho ownership. The question of
possession is consequently iiivmcu as no
whether it should go to tho workman
who discovered it, the owner -of tho
timber, or the county. The finder
probably inclines to the first suggestion.

author, to the following conclusions: 1.
Tho so-cailrd sento oi heat and cold is
composed in reality of two senses quite
independent, both anatomically and
physically. 2. Observations on healthy
and disreissnl subjects show that the sen
eatiorr of heat and cold are transmitted
through different nerves, by different
routes, and to different brain-centres.
2. Tho gvrua sigmoidous contains the
center (or ccntripotal branches leading

4. These sense-perceptions are transmit

A Walk In Atlantic City.
As they walked back to tho hotel
through a sandy avenno lined with jig
saw architecture, Miss Benson pointed,
out to them some things that sho said
had touched her a good deal. In tho
patches of sand before each houso there
was generally an ouiong unio luouuu
set about with a rim of stones, or, when
something moro artistic could be afford
od, with shells. On each of these little
graves was a flower, a. sickly geranium,
or a humble marigold, or some other
floral token of affection.
Mr. Forbes said ho nover was at a
watering-place before where theybnried
tho summer boarders In the front yard.
Mrs. Benson didn't like joking on such
subjects, and Mr. King turned the direc
tion of tho conversation by remarking
that these seeming trifles were really of
much account, in these days, and ho
took from his pocket a copy of tho city
newspaper. The Summer Sea-Song,
and read somo of the leading items: "S.,
our eye is on you." "The Slopers have
como to their cottago on Q Street, and
come to stay." "Mr. E- P. Borum has
painted his'front steps." "Mr. Diffen
dorfer's marigold is on the blow." And
so on, and so on. This was probably
tho marigold mentioned that they were
looking at
The most vivid impression, however,
mado upon tho visitor in this walk was
that of paint It seemed unreal that
thero could be so much paint in the
world and so many swearing colors.
But it ceased to bo a dream, and they
were taken back into tho hard practical
world, when as they turned the corner,
Irene pointed out her favorite sign:
Silas Lapham, mineral paint.

At a convont In Franco twenty poor

at this nieal, watching for any scraps
that might be thrown to him. The
guests being very hungry thomsolves,
and not vorj charitable? tho poor dog did
little mora than smell the food. Each

could seo each other. Ono day the dog
waited till all wero served, when he
took tho rono In his mouth and rang
tho bell. The trick succeed!, and was
refloated tho next day with the same
'success. At length tho cook finding
that twenty-one portions were doled oat
instead of twenty, determined to find
out the thief, and at last the clever dog
was detected. But when tho monks
heard the story, they rewarded the dog's
ingenuity by allowing him to ring the
boU every day, and a mess of broken
victuals was thenceforth regularly served
out to him in his turn.

that they would.go on a strike. They

At Sixth and Vine they adopted other
tactics, and Mr. Near Mule fell down.

influences of a crowbar had been used,
