It Is owned by the ex-sultan of Morocco and was In the possession of Frederick Whlttram of the Mercantile Bank of America, who brought It to this coun try from Madrid as selling agent for Its wealthy owner. The stone, which weighs 183.15 carats, was once the central gem In the Jeweled turban of Morocco's ruler, A Mel Hand. The cares of his high office caused El Hafld td abdicate In favor of his younger brother, who now rules Morocco. When he quit' the throne he took with him all his worldly ma mrA aattll In Madrid. Whenever be needs cash he disposes of his jewels. The big 'diamond had little charm for him, so one day while talking to Mr. and Mrs. Whlttram he said: "You may take this diamond to America when you return and as my agent rispose of it to the highest bid der." . This casual offer amazed Mr. Whit tram and his wife, and the latter asked El Hafld why he trusted it to them. "It is well," replied the ' ex-sultan. "You both have good faces. I have some fine square emeralds that I may dispose of, but not Just now." Mr. WhiKram sad he took the stone before various gem experts of Paris, but because ol its great size they said It would be difficult to estimate its value. Appraisers of the treasury de partment expressed the same opinion. The diamond was sent to the apprais ers' store by the customs officials. New York Tribune.

"What do yoa think of these links?' he exclaimed. "What do I think of 'em?" gasped his opponent, wiping a bit of soil from his lips. "Pouf. Best I ever tasted!"- Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph.
