GOVERNMENT EXPERTS REPORT
Concerning Gems and Precious Stones
 Found in the United States.

Concerning Gems and Precious Stones
 Found in the United States.
 The report of George F. Kunz, the ex- pert i'll gems, which has just been issued by the geological survey, contains much interesting information relating to the discovery of precious stones in the United States. The list of accidental finds throughout the country is large enough to be inspiring. Mir. Kunz calls them accidental, and then says that at Salida, Colo, over a ton of garnets have been picked up during the year. They find garncts of the same sort in Lewiston, Idaho. Some of the pure, clear quartz, when it comes in big chunks, is quite valuable. They found some very large masses in Virginia carly in the year. They were reported Gs transparent crystals of quartz, one weighing G43 pounds, another BIO pounds When these reached New York, however. they proved not 10 be crystals. but veins Of t.rs,nclllcCnt CuartZitC. with crystalline markings of a group rather than of single crystal, and the clear spaces, which were only observed on these crystalline sides, would not afford a crystal tall more than one inch in diameter The larger part was almost white with flaws ''Such would do, however, 10 sell to tourists, says Mir. Kunz. raivelv.
 Some amethysts have lcen found cur ing tho past year at Deer Island. Me- also few amethysts ere found at Burr vile, R. I. A precious stone of much interest is an opaque white hydrophano discovered in Colorado. Tho finder has named it magic stone,' because, as usual with this mineral, it possesses the property of becoming absolutely trans parent if water is dropped slowly cn it from ono to three minutes. It is so porous that it will absorb it's own weight of water. It quickly rccovcrs its opac- fly. A beautiful pink chalcodony has been found at Cisco, Utah. It admits of high polish, but 1t has not yet been i2- reduced in any quantity.
 T. F. Lamb and G. c. Hatch mined for time at the Mount Apatitc locality, near Auburn, Me, and found tourmalinc geL.3 and minerals to the valuo of $500 This | locality will be further worked. Quite . | large number of the yellow, green and white beryls found in LitchGeld county | have been nicely cut and extensively sold. Tho cut gems sold during the past year are valued at $5 ,000, but Q large part of this sum probably represents the cutting and other necessary expenses. Tho Ma rion Bullion company, at Marion, N. C., ! does not make business of digging for gems, but Col. Deming has found SC many garnets there that it paid him tc sell them in quantities to manufacturing jewellers. There was also ono fine amc- thyst of magnificent purple color and over one inch across, fine aquamarinas from ono to six carats in weight and some beautiful chloritic inclusions in quartz, which, when polished, show very fine landscape effects. = Washington Cor

Tho Tax coIlec,or in Rnssia.

Taxes are based upon the estimates of the collector as to what can be paid. There were appraisements of property, and there are appraisements yet. The list of nobles, however, pay only enough to keep up the appearance of paving. The middle classes-those who have enough property i'll farms, etc., to mako them living when worked, and those who gen orally become Nihilists on account of the despotism-ray the burden. The tax collector watches closely the property of these people, and if they rcroof house, paint, build a new structure or fence, . ''reappraisement" is directly made, though the man may have just paid his taxes, and additional taxes are de manded. They must bo paid instantly The laws about confscating property of persons who refuse to pay taxes arc simply awful. If tho property owner makes any fuss about the matter he is chased as a conspirator, a connivcr against the government, and some fine day or night he is called upon by officers who look like innocent citizens He leaves his family ito go to town,' and next he is seen in the spirit land. He goes to the shooting gallery or Siberia. - Moscow Cor. New Orleans Times-Dem- Opra+

r1opded Dolls for q Iivipp.

The doll doctress, of Leipzig, Germany, died recently. Mrs. Emma F. Schneider had buried her husband and only child many years ago. After her bereavement she felt an irrepressible love for children, which she tired to satisfy. Her poor lit Ge gill had left few dikpidatcd dolls. Sho proceeded to fix them and gave them to few little girls, who repaid her for her kindness by going frequently to visit her. When their dolls got broken they GSain applied to her to restore them, which sRe did Soon all sorts of dolls were brought to her to bo fixed, which occupation gradually developed into Q regular and paying business. Her little rooms were soon filled with dolls which covered the floor, the tables and chairs. And busy among the heaps the old, stoop- ing little woman moved about and doc tored the dolls, putting in an eye here, an arm or foot there; making new wigs for the bald heads and stuAing the body and limbs which had lost their roundness; re- storing every doll to primitive youthful ness. Thus she was known to all the children of Leipzig as the doll cloctress.- - Foreign Letter.

Didn't know Her.

"Why didn't you get up and give her your seat or permit me to give her nlinc?' sa;d a woman to her husband They had just got off car. The woman's $ face c1- pressed great anxiety of mind. Why should we give her a seat?" the husband asked. ''Just because she was so richly dressed, I suppose, y he added. ''Is it possible that you did not know her?" the wife exclaimed. .'Of course; I Gm not supposed to know every well dressed woman who comes along" ''Oh James, sho is our cook, and am afraid she will treasure up against us our lack of courtesy" "Why didn't you tell lnef'' the husband exclaimed. The woman did not reply, but, trembling violently, leaned heavily upon his arm. nl.-Arkansaw Traveller

TYpo Made from PnDcr.

Type made from paper is the latest novelty. A process has been patented in England by which large type used for olacards can be made from pulp. Such letters are at present cut on wood. Tho pulp is reduced to powdered or com minuted state, after which it is thoroughly mixed with water proofing liquid or material, such as Parafiine oil or 2 dry ing linseed oil, for instance. The mixture is then dried and subsequently, pulverized. h its pulverized state it is introduced into ! mold of the requisite construction to produce the desired article-type or olocl,-and then subjected to pressure to consolidate it and heat to render tacky or adhesive the water prooing material Finally, the type is cooled while in mold, 50 as to cause it to retain its shape and olidity.-Chicago News.

Fluctuations of Rainfall.

Of all current meteorological phe- nomcna, rainfall is the most irregular, both as to time and place. The rainfall of one year may be double or treble that of the year before or the year following At any one station these fluctuations are ordinarily so great aa to thoroughly mask any secular change. It may vary greatly from place to place, even though the dis tance bc small, while the change of the location of gauge from the ground to the top of q house may make it give very different indications. For these reasons it is apparent that reliable results, ill re- gard to a general increase or decrease of rainfall, are to be obtained only by com bining a large number of observations scattered over many years and over the greatest possible variety of conditions Henry Gannett in Science.

A raper Chase in France.

Speaking of aristocratic sport" said a Frenchman visiting here, reminds mo to say that our sport is mostly of that character. Such great games as we have aro played mainly by the titled persons and the military. The leading one I think of is a paper chase on horseback, conducted in very much the same way that the English and Americans play harc and hounds. With us two of the most intrepid horsemen start from Q given point at a set timo and mark their course by scattering bits of paper as they go. They stop not for barriers of any description and disdain roads. The pack also on horseback pursues them and catch them if they can. This gamo is always accompanied by Q considerable concourse of spectators in carriages, who keep up with tho pursuit as best they can by driving along the roads. It is 8 great gamc and calls for the exercise of no little nerve and vigor. Tho courses arc from fifteen to twenty miles in length. ."-New York Cor. Philadelphia Times.
