Tne sensational story of the theft of the jewels of Hesse revives the question: What has hap- | pened to some other royal treasures of Europe? Compared to some of these—such as the crown \ of the Hapsburgs, the three-million-dollar Hesse gems appear small items, In a series of srticles of which this is the fifth and last, Edward J. Byng tells the amazing story of some of these fabulous gems,

a classic Greek marble bust of Aristotle, - » s THE FIRST of these prides of the Hapsburg treasure, the gold cradle of the child of Napoleon and his Hapsburg empress, Marie Louise, was presented to the French imperial couple in 1811, shortly after the birth of Napoleon's heir, by the City of Paris. It was designed and made by the most celebrated jewelers of the time, Claude B. Odiot and Pierre Philippe Thomire, Whilg the royal relic became a prized item of the Hapsburg treasure, the boy for whom it was originally made was demoted from his proud title of “King of Rome” to the lese spectacular status and title bf wuke of Reichstadt, only to die of consumption at the age of 21. ~ ” ~ WHEN BENVENUTO CELLINI, genuius, philanderer, murderer, and one of the greatest artists of all time, made his internationally famed golden salt cellar for King Francis I of France, neither he nor his royal patron were aware that the masterpiece would eventually find its way to the treasury of the

halls ‘of the Hapsburgs’ “Temporal Treasure Chamber” is the ancient Greek marble bust generally believed to be a portrait of Aristotle. The likeness shows the beautiful, serene features of a thinker, enframed by a beard, and entirely governed by the powerfully shaped forehead. It is the only portrait in existence widely accepted by experts to be that of the great philosopher.

» » » SOME OF THE objects which reposed in the Hapsburg treasure chambers for centuries and whose trace was lost in World War II were looked upon by many generations as Christendom's most sacred relics. These objects include a beautifully wrought gold monstrance of medieval workmanship said to confain a tooth of St. John the Baptist. Another reliquary contains three links of- iron chains believed for many centuries to have been those with which the Apostles Peter, Paul and John were fettered. Another widely famed relie in
