The Diamond Market.
ISan Francisco Argonaut. ]

1t was rather an innovation to the old
time jewelers. to discover in some of the
leading magazines and newspapers ad-
vertisements offering their wares at
prices which strike the casual reader as
being remarkably cheap. One of the
Oldest houses in New York, for instance,
has offered to sell diamond rings, which
"are fit for the hand of any lady OF gen.
tleman in the land" at prices varying
from $50 upward. The high standing Of
the house naturally stamps such an offer
as being sincere an honest, but certainly
most men would be impressed with the
idea that diamond ring for that amount
OF money could not present many points
of value.
A slight investigation shows that the
general cheapening agency of machinery
is at work in this branch of trade as in
all the others. What formerly required
the work of a single man for nearly
day-that is, the metal part of the ring
lis now stamped out and fitted ready to
receive the stone with rapidity which
Is astonishing. The only cost to be con-
sidered is the rent of the machine and
the value of the crude gold. Inserting q
cheap diamond in the surface of the
ring is about all the manual labor in
volved. The journeymen jewellers do
this work with great rapidity, and prac-
tically there is very little cost to the
iewelry firm beyond the first cost Of the
gold and the diamond.

1T 10 Great to be one-Legged."
New York SUM-

a little ragamuffin, who had lost one
of his legs, hoped around ON crutch
one rainy afternoon last week at the
corner of Broadway and Park place.
His shoe was torn, and it was natural to
suppose that the foot inside of it was
wet. The boy was determined that there
should be no question about this, for he
hoped from one puddle to another, and
stood in each until the water began to
ooze out of the shoe. Several other
gamins played around with him. At
times they tried to pull him down, but
he was very quick and had way of
bringing his crutch down on their shout
ders that made them wary about COM
ing within his reach. Suddenly he
stopped and said:
II feel hungry Guess | want some
thin to eat
He left his companions playing in the
street, hoped up onto the sidewalk and
accosted the first man that came along.
The man looked at his crippled condi-
ton and gave him a dime. The next
man fumbled in his pocket and brought
out copper. The third and fourth paid
no attention to him. He gave it up then
and came back to his companions, toss
ing the money he had received as though
this was no unusual occurrence.
''Goin' to leave you fellows" he said;
"goin' 10 get some beef and beans"
AS he hobbled away the other boys
looked at him with envy in their eyes.
'sGoSh," said one of them ssit's great
to be one legged. You don't have to
work and you get more money, too"
The others nodded assent.

81 San Antonio in 1855. They were
finally taken west to Arizona, and, prov
ing useless, were soon abandoned to
their fate. Wandering over the wild
portions of Arizona, New Mexico and
Texas, they increased somewhat in num-
bers, but it was supposed that the In
dians had long ago killed them off. 1t
has since been learned that the red men,
superstitious and silly as they usually
are in such cases, regarded them with
great awe as strange creatures from the
clouds, and so fed from them in terror.
A few lonesome and forlorn camels
are yet drifting over the wild, unin-
habited places of the far southwest, so
that the novelty of a genuine camel hunt
presents itself TO those in search of
pleasures new" who care to travel the
long distance to seek them.

PATIENT WITH the LIVING.
[Christian Advocate


Sweet friend when thou and are gone
Beyond earth's weary labor,
When small shall be our need OF grace
From comrade or from neighbor;
Passed all the strife, the toll tpe care,
And done with all the signing,
What tender truth shall we have gained,
Alas! by simply dying?
Then lips too chary of their praise
VIII tell our merits over,
And eyes too swift our faults to see
Shall no defect discover.
Then hands that would not lit stone
Where stones were thick to cumber
Our steep hill path. will scatter flowers
Above our pillowed slumber.
Sweet friend, perchance both you and ],
Ere love is past f0rgiving,
Should take the earnest lesson nome
Be patient with the living.
TOday's repressed may save
Our binding tears tomorrow;
Then patience-e'en when keenest edge
May whet nameless sorrow.
It's easy to be gentle when
Deaths silence Shames our clamor,
And easy to discern the best
Through memory's mystic glamor;
But wise 1t were for thee and me,
Ere love is past forsiving,
To take the tender lesson home
Be patient with the living.

Chicago Inter-O Ocean. !

Ichieago Inter-O ocean,
Before the cheerful fire tonight
Ky wife and are sitting,
We softly talk OF days gone by.
And on our hearts, such memories lie
Ofbaby.
Our treasure was boy, Of course,
And such sturdy ynlmgster,
With hair Of gold, and eyes Of blue,
And six white teeth, so straight and true,
Had baby.
His chubby hands, all dimpled, to-,
And fingers, always itching,
TO pull our hair and poke our eyes,
And other tricks, to our surprise,
Did baby.
He made my wife slave all day
Keeping him out Of mischief.
HID pick up pins and dirt, you see,
And put them In his mouth, would he,
Would baby,
And then, at night, when l came home,
He'd crow and smile to see me,
He'd pick my pockets, do his best
To grab my pipe cthe little pesD
That baby.
At bedtime, too. he'd vex us sore,
With all his restless antics,
And when we thought he was asleep,
Around the door, who then would peep,
But baby.
And SO tonight we sit and think,
OF baby's ways and doings,
And of those hands and voice, now STILL
Aud through our hearts such memories thrill
Obi baby.
But bark! From out the stiffness comes,
A voice so soft and cooling,
That rascal there, has just awoke.
Aud smiling too, a master stroke,
Our baby,

Imprisonment by Deputy.

The Paris correspondent of The Lon
don Daily News, telegraphing recently,
said: "a curious attempt to shirk impris-
onment by substitution came before the
Paris assizes this afternoon. NJ. Dubusc,
landlord of cafe, was sentenced the
other day to forty-eight hours imprison-
ment for having held concerts on his
premises without license. In France
defendant who is a householder is not
taken from the court to prison, but is al
lowed respite of two or three weeks or
month at his discretion. At the end
Of this period he receives polite letter
from the prison governor requesting him
to call at his earliest convenience in Or
der to serve out the sentence.
M. Dubusc during this respite found
pauper, who had just been discharged
from Nanterre, and induced him to 90
to prison for 20 francs. Boislache-
this was the mans name-went off to
the Petite Roquette, introduced himself
as Dubusc, which name he signed on the
visitors book, and was locked up in a
cell. His ragged appearance, however,
aroused suspicion, and detection speedily
followed. Boislache was prosecuted for
forgery and NJ. Dubusc as his accomplice.
The jury, however, acquitted them BOTH"

While on the way TO Baltimore from Tol-

steamer Louise was run into by the steamer
Virginia. on her way 10 Norfolk. The en-
tire side OF the latter vessel was torn away.
and II Is reported that at least eleven lives
were lost. About twenty were terribly in
jnred by the flying splinters. Tho dead
are: Mrs. Mahl,a Marshall. Charles

There are seven missing-they may have
Jumped or been thrown overheard. Twelve
persons have been taken TO the hospitals In
a badly injured condition.
just how many people went over into the
water Is not known. but some eye witnesses
OF the disaster say that great number OF
people, men, women aud children were sit

occurred, and Immediately disappeared.
According 10 the story of nm eye witness
the Virginia was at fault. She came Lead
on. and without trying TO get out OF the way
speared the Louise. As her bow entered the
laiter's side a number OF passengers sprang
on board. The Virginia. then pulled out and
started down the bay, leaving u big hole IN
