Adornment, The Gems Most Liked Arranged in a Multitude of Beautiful Forms and Gold in Artistic Pat- terns. N Y. Times. Diamonds, rubios and sapphires spar- kled in the sunshine as a fashionable u per Broadway jeweller laid a velvet lined tray on his show ease and explained to a reporter, one morning recently, what wero the most fashionable styles of jow- elry worn this season. On the tray was a large rose, with the stem, leaves, and flower made entirely of diamonds, held together by almost invisible bands of gold, This valuable ornament, costing ,500, was intended to take the place of natural flowers in an evening toilet. The design is original and has never been du- plicated. A necklace of diamonds, each gem as large as the tip of one's finger, as marked £20,000. A 83,000 bunch of diamond pinks, a modest £1,200 ox- eye daisy, a glittering cluster ot diamond leaves with o £9,000 sapphiro centro, and various other floral gems surpassed in brilliancy, at least, if not in beauty, the lillies of the field. “These,” said the joweler, “‘are very fashionable, but not” for poor poople. They are the most stylish goods we can sell, and would adorn the most clegant of costumes. Diamonds are always fashion- able, but not in the shape of clusters. A fow yoars ago everything was made in the shape of clusters, brooches, finger and ear-rings; but now the solitaires are preferred, with as little gold as possible in the mounting. Gold 1s cheap, except- ing when it is so formed as to have a gen- uine artistic value, as it has tn the Indian bracelets, each link of which is an artistic study. The designs of these beautiful orna- ments arc after the style of the famous East Indian jewels, and would be as be- coming on o "Hindoo as a New York belle. There were also Indian spiders, with long, crooked, hairy legs, of red shodo metal, sharp eyes of diamond chips, and great fat bodies of Alexandrite or chrysoberyl, which shone and glistened as they were moved about on the glass case, They are hideous and yet fascinating,and as lacepins are much prized by ladies to whoma real dead mouse is the most ter- rible of spectres. A rich purple swamp rose, on the same metal, was one of the most unique of the Indian patterns. Its broad petals glistened as if they were covered with dew-drops, and in the centre there sparkled a brilliant dia- mond of the rare canary hue, giving the jewel the rich appearance of the beautiful flower it was fashioned after. These de- signs are worked into cuff buttons, scarf pins, lace pins, and even fingerrings. "The scarf pin tray was a miniature picture gallery. Therewere richly colored Limoge enamelled medallions, setin delicate gold nds or surcounded by tiny rows of diamonds or pearls or ruby or emerald chips; small golden horses caparisoned with almost invisible slver trappings; placques in the French, Japanese and Italian styles, and a_ noctural study intended for a ministerial scarf. It was on a golden placque, and consisted of a wise-faced owl blinking over its shoulder at a silver moon, while three little jewel- led stars twinkled through the clouds as a diminutive frog was preparing to plunge headlong The price of this interesting trinket could not be expressed in less than three figures. The most popular scarf pins are the plain and gold-headed or jewelled pins. Pearls and diamonds are the most fash- ionable gems used for this purpose. Scarf pins, the jewcler explained, have taken the place to a large extent of shirt studs, the fashionable high buttoned vests and coats preventing the former ex- pansive exhibition of shirt bosoms. The old-fashioned shirt pin, too, has gone en- tirely out of style, In cuff-buttons the double links are fast superseding the sin- gle buttons, Thisis an old style return- ing again, and bids fair to have a lon; life. They are made in every known ane several hitherto unknown shapes. The most fashionable are richly mounted with gems, The Japanese fan, horseshoe and four-leafed clover styles are superseded by the plain Roman and hammered gold or the grotesque Indian and Japanese de- vices, * The large stone settings aro sel- dom worn now. Very few sets of brooches and earrings are sold this sea- son compared with the great sale they had several years ago. Lace pins are more fashionable than the hrunclllcs, and the present style is to woar earrings which do not match the pin un- less they are diamonds or some other precious stone. Thero is little domands for chains and lockets, without which no toilet was thought complete several years ago. Cameos are going out of style, but _fine stones well cut are, and _always will be valuable. Coral and jet jewelry, too, are fast disappearing, A’ taste for colored stones is fust developing., [he beautiful townnalines from Brazil, which _come in all colors, are most worn. They are cheaper than the chrysoberyl, which is next to the sapphire in blue stones, Its composition is very much like that of the “cat's-eye.’” Tt has also vavious shades of color, The Alexandrites are the most beautiful of these stones. They come from Ceylon and present the phenomenon of having two shades of colcr, an olive green by day and a columbine red at night. ~The emerald is regaining iw old- time popularity, and tho - supersition which has always clung to the opal is being gradually removed and the sale of this delicate and beautiful gem is increas- ing, Rubies and diamonds still hold their popularity, and pearls are rapidly increasing in value and repute.

The fair sex now affect the other extreme, and watches are made no larger than a five-cent piece. A very fashionable shape is the bale, or round as a marble, with a heavy crystal case, One of the largest manufacturers of the cheaper grades of jewelry in this country was next visited. The style of jewelry which are made by the hundred from the standard patterns, he said, had greatly changed in the past few years. The old styles were large and flashy; the present are smaller and richer. The most fashion- able kinds of lockets, cuff buttons, scarf and lace pins are made of Roman gold and mounted with singlediamonds. There is a great demand for pansy and lily of the valley designs, made of red gold. Few pendant ear-rings are made now. The most fashionable is the ball which fit close to the ear. Cameos seem to have gone almost entirely out of date. The style of scarf pins in cheaper grades resembles that of the higher priced arti- cles described above. In bracelets the old chain pattern is gradually coming into use again, while the bands are going out. The most fashionable, of all, howeve: is the bangle and coil Amethysts and topazes are seldom used now in the facto- ries. The style of ladies’ watch chains most sold is the chatclaine, Next in pop- ul;u'it{' comes a short chain which fastens into the belt the same as the chatelaine, but the watch is carried in the adjacent pocket. The once fashionable leotine and opera chains are hardly ever seen now in this city, but still have a large sale in the country, Gentlemen’s fob chains are going out of style, Their ex- tensive manufacture in cheap grades of plated wire has killed the popularity. Oxydized, plain and hammered silver jewelry have had their day,and now have as poor a sale as the dinmond pin, which years ago was the wonder and admira- tion of the traveling public as it blazed and flashed on the polished shirt front of the hotel clerk like an electric light of 400-candle power on & dark night. et CLERKS WHO PLAY THE PIANO.

He is the owner of 320 acres of land, has good buildings and is in a_prosperous condi- tion, His family until recently consist- ed of himself and wife, four sons grown to manhood and two daughters, Now there is but one daughter left for the un- natural father to vent his wrath upon, He has been noted in the neighborhood for heartlesscruelty toward his daughters, kicking and maltreating them because he could not extort more work out of them. Minnie Wass was ayoung woman about 20 years of age. She had been working at Sioux City, and being taken with ill health, came to her father’s house, the natural refuge of a child, Instead of kind treatment, the poor girl was shame- fully used, and made the subject of treat- ment that drove her to desperation. Going to neighbor’s, named Petorson, she told them that she was 8o ill-used at home that she would commit suicide, as she felt certain that her father would kill her. It appears that Minnie had an elder sister in Wisconsin, who had sent her money to go to her, but the old Wass is said to have got hold of the letter and kept the money. On Thursday the Wasses gave out that Minnie had drowned herself in the well, but the ‘I can't arned to A PARE death were 80 suspicious that Coroner Dubes was summoned to investigate them, : n and the circumstances connected withher > case | are made in various styles, | The most | Benton's folks would be glad to have you He went to Tilden on Monday, and he learned that the Wass family claimed that Minnie seized the bucket rope and slid down to the water, where she screamed, and that one of the brothers slid down the rope after her, but that she sank in ten feet of water and he could not rescue her. He managed, however, to get out himself, leaving his sister to drown. By some means they fished her to the surface, then fastening a_rope around her body drew her out. Neighbors by this time had arrived, and they say the heartless father refused to allow the body of his dead child to be taken into the house. They then asked to have it put in the granary This was also refused, but he consented to allow them to Thoy |stretch it in an empty corn-erib. The poor girl had no clothing on except hei | chemise when drowned, and the fathe would not allow wore than a calico dress to be used in preparing her for burial, id Miss Mollie, “I don't nt to hurt Miss Maria’s feelings, and T'm afraid I'm wanted here, but my sister will be glad of a chance to go.
