Especial Correspondence.
NEW YORK, Aug. AT one time If
was said that coral ornaments were again
coming in vogue, but the fancy very soon
died out. The Sicilian women buy coral
for their babies. believing that it will
not only keep them from being I'll, but
that it cOunteracts the effect Of the evil
eye and keeps away the wicked spirits.
Mrs. LangtTy's collection of turquoises
is a superb one; her necklace took seven
years to collect. Each stone is perfect in
shape and color; they are surrounded by
small diamonds and hung on a very thin
gold chain that is almost invisible, so
that the beautiful blue stones seem to
be resting Of themselves on the white

the Baroness Blanc, who has had it re-
set IN framing Of diamonds as a brooch.
1t had formerly been pendant.
People used to say that money put in
diamonds was like money deposited in a
savings bank, but this isn't so. The
woman who is using her money with
anything like a view Of saving it had
better buy rubies or sables, for by their
rarity both are always costly. The ruby
is always given the preference as an en-
gagement ring, for it seemB TO tell in its
wonderful deep color Of great human
love. Pearls should not be selected. for
they mean tears, and sapphires are more
typical of heavenly than an earthly
love. The happiest woman in New York

COL" JACK BAXTER STRIKES OIL.

ooi' JACK Baxter, the well known
prospector, came in from Highland
yesterday. lie says that during the last
work he did in his Eclipse Mine Former.
~ the Standard Dollar he found that
MS lett wrist weakened in single hand
driillng. lie kept at work, however,
though the wrist instead of getting better
with use continued to grow worse. One
morning while striking an upper" in
the west drift there oozed ont of the
hole grayish white semi.liauid. or mud
which ran down the drill and over his
left hand and wrist. The substance was
not especially noticed at the time, Jack
thinking it had come down from the
surface dnring the great storm that has
prevailed out there, as we'll as in Phoebe.
for over two months. But as the days
wore on it became evident to Jack that
MS game" wrist was behaving in an ex.
traordinary manner. When he drilled
staight ahead in the face or toward the
bottom OF the drift it gave him no peace;
but when he worked upward on the
north side of the ''roof'' there was a
quite perceptible relief. not only while
working but for hours afterward. At
last he surmised that the ooze from the
roof was . natural liniment sent by Pro.
ivdepce to enable him to keep at work a
few bays longer until he should make the
strike" for which he, like all prospect.
ors, has been seeking these many years.
Halt dreaming, as many prospectors
dream, he acted on the surmise, rubbed
the ooze on his wrist, until he suddenly
awoke to the fact that the "mud" had
mostly disappeared leaving few
scratches from grit that was mixed with
it. While wondering where it had gone
he forgot his pain, and now he says that
wrist has been stronger than the other
ever since.
With the prospector's characteristic
liberality Col. Baxter declares that az
soon as he can find ledge of bottles and
corks he will set up free drug store.

Cost of q Locomotive.


One man can build an eight.wheel
passenger locomotive for standard
gauge railroad in 1900 days; it will
require l,650 days work for him to build
a consolidated ten.wheel locomotive for a
standard gauge. The wages for skilled
labor run from 81 to $3.50 day; this
would give an average of 90 a day, or
"a, 635 for the engine. The cost of the
necessary metal to build locomotive is
usually estimated at about $1,000. The
profit may be put down at another
81, 600, which would include the expenses
of sale and delivery. This would make
an engine, when absolutely ready for
service and complete in every way, worth
about S., 635. lex.
