Medina, | The King's crown for the Durom. is fhe « cially made--~a crown of India. 'Queen will wear her coronation crown of diamonds, the magnificent #pecimen of the jeweler's art which ' was prepared for her crowning at Westminster Abbey, In the forefront (of the diadem the Koh-i-noor diamond blazes, so that the se of the crown at Ahe Durbar will be particularly hap Py. This crown is not kept with the regalia in the Tower of London. Leg end has said of the Koh-i-noor that it brings the emiles of good fortune for a full lifetime upon the woman who wears it, but th is a gem of $llomen for a man, - ; # The robes which the Queen intends #o wear in the Durbar ceremonial are. fthose she wire at her coronation, slightly altered and made lighter in consideration of the heat which will ave to be borne at Delhi, { The Queen's private jewels, and the many priceless jeweled orders to be worn by Their Majesties upon occa. sions of state, also form part of the immensely valuable collection in the jedre of the Keeper of the Jewels in fhe Medina. One partictlarly notable ornament to be worn by the Queen at {#he Durbar will be a Ben wer of diamonds, and another will be a mag- nificent pearl necklace.

The banners i © for them are being manufactured in India, and after trumpets have en 'used they will 'be kept as so vemirs of the reat day. The King will have one, and so will the viceroy, and others will be given to other distin. guished people, Ab. a religious ceremonial of the crowhing does not form part of the Durbar there is no need to move any of the instruments of the actual eoro- mation frofn their vesting place in the Wakefield Tower of the Tower of London. In connection with the safe keeping of the regalia in the Tower it is lnleresting to recall that before the Wakefield Tower was recently al- tered and made absolutely burglar. proof, an old passage was found lead- ing from the tower to St. Thomas' Tower, which faces the river front. It was discovered that {4 would have been possible for a burglar, by the collusion of 4 servant, to obtain entry #hrough Bt. Thomas' Tower into the lold passage and so into the Wakefield Tower, | If the burglar had made his entry 'after the closing hour on Saturday he fwould have had all Saturday night land Sunday to work undisturbed at {the locks of the iron cases holding the jregalia, This condition of things was realized when a thorough examination wag made of the Wakefield Tower af. {ter the theft of the Dublin crown jew- ls, Alterations were made immedi. wtely, The passage was done away with and the regalia room in the Wakefield Tower was immensely strengthened with a thick concrete floor, iresh burglar alarms, and a new grill in front of the jewels, " A Clever 'Diamond Thief. " Before the! amalgamation of the Kimberley mines in Bouth Africa, diamond stéaling was an exciting and a profitable industry, and not infre. uently a dark tragedy. Natives were e thieves and white men the re. peivers, and. both acquired amazing adroitness in evading justice. Here is & typical instance: { A native at' the Kimberley, mine dound a fine stone. He was wearing battered slouch hat of the Alpine - #ype, with a pronounced cleft formed iby the two sides of the crown. With piece of fat he stuck the stone to he outside of the crown. On leaving #he mine after his day's work the boy ubmitted himself to the usual search, t throwing his hat on the ground. The ordeal was successfully passed. he boy replace his hat and carried' his quarters a stone that eventual changed hands for $4,500. The Kaf- received only $60 for the risk he fran in stealing the diamond.
