A well-known beauty in occupied a stage box at a theatre in the Strand some nights ago. Her white furs and diamonds were the admiration o£ the house. Shortly after the beauty’s departure an attendant found a star of brilliants in the box and like an honest woman, gave the ti’easure-trove into the the hands of the management. Ho enquiries were made next day at the theatre about the lost star, but ultimately it found its way into the rightful owner’s hands. The oddest part of the story remains to be told. The diamonds were false.
