THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, MAY 15, 18806, THE JOHN BROWNBRIC-A-BRAC What Will Albert Edward Do With It When He Qomes to the Throne? THE BATTENBERG DILEMMA, A Celebrated Diamond—Patti's For« tunc—Mudie's Library—Other Foreign Gossip. John Brown's rooms at Windsor, have been kept rigorously closed since his death, and now the queen has had alarge brass tablet inserted in the wall, eulo- gizing his qualities, deploring his loss, and stating the never-to-headmired fact that the great man had once occupied that apartment. [t will be interesting to see what the Prince of Wales will do, when he comes to the, throne, with some of this John Brown bric-a-brac. Every member of the John Brown fam- ily in reach is now in the queen’s service, and even persons whose connection with him was of the slizhtest description de- rive benefit from it. The post of linen woman at Windsor is one of some con- sideration and emolument, and when it fell vacant latelv, a- former housemaid was appointed to it over the heads of many persons more suited to the position. On inquiry it turned out that this woman had formerly been the seryant who had charge of John Brown's rooms. There was nothing more to say when this be- came known. The burning guestion now that court festivities are about to begin is: What is to be done with Henry Battenberg? Will he and Beatrice go to state balls? And if 8o, will he be kept in his proper place, below the ambassadors, with a score or 80 of couples between him and his wife in the supper procession, and be sent to the second table with Lorne? The Prince of Wales koeps these two hated morganatic brothers-in-law in strict ord- er, and he made them keep in the back- ground at the recent opening of the ox- amination hall for the colleges of physicians and surgeons.

A strong effort 1s being made to laicese these estabiishments.

It was pure d by a syn- dicate of London and Paris diamond mer- chants, who entrusted it to a most skilful cutter. The man has been at work on it for eight months, and expects to finish it during the present month. 1t is expected to turn out the most wonderful brilliant on record, surpassing in weight, color, purity and lustre all crown and historical diamonds of the world. In order to ob- tain the best shape and lustre it will be reduced to under 200 carats. The Kon- imoor weighs only 106; the Regent of France, 1364; the Star of the South; 125: the Piggott, 8!

Great. curiosity is expressed as to the stato of Patti’s fortunc. Her Welsh cas- tlo is estimatod to be worth £60,000, her diamonds £40,000, but what her bank ac- count is no one ean conjecture, The palice of Cintra, which was built by the late ex-King Ferdinand of FPortu- al on the site of the ancient convent of ur Lady da Penha (the rock), is one of the most magniticent royal residences in Euro?o. The ex-king bequeathed it and its valuable artistic contents to his second wife, the singer, Elise Hensler of Boston, but she is likely to lose it, since it forms more than the one-third of his estate which he could leave to her.

Three thousand copies are kept of each of George Eliot's novels, and the same of Livingstone's Travels. Two thousand copies of the queen’s last book were purchased, and sometimes 1,000 of the “shitling dreadfuls" are demanded. The long corridor at Windsor where the queen’s guests assemble before din- ner, is the finest apartment in the castlo. It is kung with choice pictures and fur- nished with rare cabinet and bric-a-brac. A connoisseur once told Prince Albert that if the few pieces of Sevres contained in_one special cabinet were offered for sale the first bid would be £20,000. i kot Double-Tracks. Capt. Marsh, of the Street Railway company, says that the laying of the track along Seventeenth and Cass streets is only carrying out the long cherished intention of the company to double-track the Twentieth strect line from terminus to terminus. The only parts of the line which are with but a single track are from Cuming street to the northern part of the line, and from Burt and Twen- tieth to the corner of Cass and Eigh- teenth streets. These parts will, as op- portunity offers, nlso receive a double track. These accommodations will en- able a greater speed to be maintained on trips after the line is completed. The company propose to extend a double track on” Farnam, west of Jetler- son, as tar as Twenty-eighth, as soon as the paving of the streetis commenced. The extension of the Farnam street line isintended to relieve St. Mary's avenue of the bulk of the park bus . It s not known along which street the line will be extended from ‘nam street to the park.

THE BLACK PEBBLES. James Ruddle was seated in a lager beer saloon one day wondering why he did not grow rich. As he spent his days smoking, drinking and gambling his friends did not share his wonder. He was g0 lost in thonght that he did not notice at first the entrance of four young men who called for beer and seated themselves at a table near him., The young men were well but care- lessly dressed,each wore a broad brimmed hat, short coat, loose trousers and carried a knapsack and a thick stick, Their well made but thick boots were covered with dust, showing that they had walked a con- siderable distance. They threw them. selves on the wooden settles and seemed inclined to rest, But at that moment the door flew open and a short, stont women with a red face burst into the room. She had evidently been engaged at the wash tub, for the skirts n|g her gown were tucked up and carefully drawn through the docket hole, while the sleeves were pinned back to her shoulders, showiag a pair of fat red arms that still bore traees of soap suds that looked like the foam of the sea on two huge branches of red coral. f:mos Ruddle looked up in terror. It was his wife, Susan. “So, Mr. Ruddle,” she exclaimed, her breath coming short and fast, “drinking again, sir, instead of attending to your work. You are a nicc man tobe the father of a_ family, ain't you, and your children crying for bread!” “Well, but, my dear"— p “Don’t my dear me, you brute. There's that saddle not done’ that Farmer Van Wart wants, and then there's that bridle —don't you repent that bridle!” “It's not the first bridal that I've re- pented.” “T see what vou mean, sir. But what would you be without a wife?"" “1 don't know, my dear, but I should like to try.” “‘Ugh, you brute!” cried Mrs. Ruddle. “Heaven only knows why I married you. What with your belief in sp! and gob- lins and your drinking and dreaming there’s nothing done from morning to night."* DLk ] ‘Woman," said Ruddle, losing his tem- per at being touched in his most tender point, “you don't know what you are talking about; respect the powers as are. Don't Albertus Magnus tell us—" ‘Bother Albertus’ Magnus! exclaimed Susan. “Who's he, I'd like to know? Some ale-house companion as drunken und idle as yourself, 1 suppose!” “Go!" cried Rudale, starting anxiously frow his seat; “you will draw the evil eye upon you."' “Evil eye!” cried Mrs. Ruddle. *I ¢ ANy Worse don't ku Y, Wors than the will ruin The young men merry, when the eldest m “We arc now near our journcy’s end,” he said said solemnly “The mountain of Crowr 5 clos us. -morrow we must go and look for the treasure.” Tae young men looked rather puzzled, but wink from the leader made them ask: all we take next?” “My fri * said tho other, “you shall know all [ have studied; the hidden laws of the ancient Magi and the seeret of the Rosicrucian i 21l known to Ip| 3 ave read Merlin's the great w ng Arthur, > discovered th tain sid > some of Ar- knights mprizoned.

Only secing who could throw the fart v “I bet I beat you all " “Done!" said the others, and then there came such a shower of stones that Rud- dle took to his heels and never stopped till he got to his own home. Sore a5 he was, he still felt delighted at havln;{lgulxw«l the wondrous charin. He lifted the latch of his cottage door very (lulmly. although he did not expect to find 'w one up at that urg‘hnu.r. and believed himself invisible. t no soon- er bad he closed the door than his wife — sprung upon him, clutched him by the hair and belabored him soundly. Poor Ruddte dould not move for aston- ishment, and took his punishment like a lamb. His only thought was how the charm could have been lost so auddcnlg. When Mrs.Ruddle let_him go he made his way straight to the ale-house. ‘:;\;n ) crie Claude, “‘here is our worthy guide." i “1 wonder tho rascal dare show his face," said another. “‘Considering . the scratohed state it's in, so do I," said Corlaer. “‘Gentlemen,’’ said Riddle, “a sad mis- fortune has befallen me. I found the stone, but it's useless; it's lost its charm. If you'd treat.me to breaktast I'll tell you all about it.” They agreed and listened with becom- ing gravity. Wien e had gravely: “James Ruddle, your case is worse than you think. Do you remember you were to avoid all evil influences for twentv-four hours after finding the stone?" “‘Great Scott! so it was. And I mad enough to go home to my wife. “‘For 500 years now the stones will be useless, and you who have caused this misfortune will only bespared on certain conditions.” Ruddle grew pale, and his teeth chat- tered so violently that he could scarce- ly ask what he was to do to avoid calamity, “In the first place you must never meddle with spirits again. They will all be antagonistice to you from this time. Then you must drink no more or the evil spirits will have power over you and lead you to do deeds of crime and mad- ness. You must not stray out late, for at night the evil one is abrond. Trust your wife, work hard, and you may escape the curse."” Ruddle dropped his beer mug and fled home. FKrom that time no one could have worked harder. He becama one of the richest men 1n the village. He used to tell his children that the only philoso- pher’s stone was industry, for by that all could be changed into gold. But he kept tho black pebbles in his garden and never forgot the short and painful ex- perience in which he firmly believed. finished Claude said was S S LETTER LIST.
