POMPElIAN JEWELRY,
Uncut Gems Strung Together in Symbol
Designs.

Uncut Gems Strung Together in Symbolic
Designs.
The handiwork of the jewellers of
Pompeii was celebrated for it's artistic
finish and elaborate design. This is
shown by the many specimens recov-
cred from the ruins of the ancient city,
and the fact that at this day some of
the most effective com limitations and ar
engagements of jewelry for feminine
adornment are modelled on essentially
similar designs.
No finger rings are worn, as such
jewels were limited by custom to ma
irons and to maidens who were be-
trothed. But single bracelet is worn,
and that is worn on the right wrist.
The necklace and earrings are formed
entirely of uncut gems, thickly strung
together with due regard to symmetry
and color. The headpiece is formed of
a thin band of gold sparingly orna-
mented. In the bracelet and anklet,
which were regarded as the most inn
portant jewels, were to be found more
elaborate specimens of workmanship.
These jewels were of heavy gold, rare
ly set with precious stones and general
~ chased OF engraved. Religious SYM
bolism had much to do with the de-
signs thus wrought, and system in
which nature worship was personified
furnished a rich variety of FORMS
jewelers. Weekly.

A BRAND NEW SLOGAN.
Republicans Now Anxious to Have the
Tariff Let Alone.

Tariff Let Alone.
There is unanimity of opinion
among republicans that the best in
terest of the country will be better
subserved if the tariff is suffered to re-
main as it is. After long and bitter
campaign in Ohio Maj. Mckinley
arrived at this conclusion. Others
prominent in republican party councils
took up the cry of LET the tariff alone"
and passed it along the line. In his
message President Harrison advised a
democratic congress to steer clear of the
tariff, as the people were tired of the
question and the country was enjoying
an era of prosperity which should not
be tempered with.
LET the tariff alone is brand
new slogan. This is its first season in
American politics. The party re-
sponsible for it never thought of it be-
fore November 4. Before that date
republicans seemed to be as anxi Gus as
democrats to make the tariff the
foundation stone of their platform. In
30 their cry was ''revise the tariff. ~
The people believed revise" meant to
reduce taxation. The passage of the
Mckinley bill defined ''revise" in the
republican dictionary as Sock up the
tariff until the people hollcr.
Now that we have a system of taxa
ton which outwars the war system,
the republicans would have no further
agitation of the tariff question Did
they believe that they could add an
other thirty or forty. per cent. without
creating a revolution they would do it
in spite of the slogans. Let the tariff
alone Globe.

A Partridge Seeks the. Help of Man I'm
Protecting Her Eggs.
AS Pennsylvania farmer was pass.
fng through a patch OF woods, last sum-
mer, hen partridge fiuttered up and
ran between his feet. 1t was such a
strange thing for 50 wild bird to do
that the farmer thought the partridge
was blind. So he stopped over to pick
her up, and then he found that she
wasn't blind at all, for, just as he was
about to grasp her, she darted toward
the brush-heap from which he bad seen
her emerge, stopped at the edge of it
and looked back. Presently she ran
at the man again, with her wings
down, clucking constantly, and ap-
pearing to be in great distress about
something. The farmer walked to the
edge of the copse, and the partridge
flew ahead. and alighted on the ground
two or three rods. beyond, winging her
way back again when she saw Inc was
not moving. She repeated these ma
nes7vers until she led him to hemlock
tree, and there, in little curve made
by the roots, he saw nest full of eggs
At the same time he saw blacksnake
in the act of swallowing one of the
eggs. and understood the reason for the.
partriGge's actions. He hunted. up a
club and killed the snake. AS soo0 as
the partridge saw that the snake. was
n1otionless, she ceased her noise and
hid in the bushes The man went
away. and ina half an hour erept near
enough to the tree to. see the partridge
sitting on her nest as. though nothing
had happened. Golden DAVIS

While he remained within the mosque
we waited YEARLY. Cigarettes and coffee
were passed about among the crowd,
with the sultan's compliments to his
guests" Others besides the tourists
and commoners were waiting for the
worshipers' prayers to be over. Stand
ing before the mosque in the yard were
two closed carriages, from which the
horses had been removed.
THE sultana," it was whispered, and
we were left to fancy the bright eyes
which were surveying the scene through
the Sits in the wooden window shades.
When the sultan came out another
carriage awaited him, this time a roomy
phaeton. He entered it alone, took up
the reins. managed cleverly the beauti-
full white horses that champed their
bits and paved the air, and SO drove
himself homeward. This independent
action pleased US, but still he was
guarded. Generals rushed after him,
following and surrounding the phaeton,
on foot, dignity gone to the winds, just
as so many school boys would chase a
passing wagon Ito catch ride

were various maneuvers on the part of

Evils of Being Fat.

Fat people are less able to- resist the
attacks of disease or the shocks of in
juries and operations than the moder-
ateIy thin. En- ordinary everyday life
they are at a disadvantages; their re-
spiratory muscles can not so easily act;
their heart is often handicapped by the
deposit on it; and the least exertion
throws them into perspiration. This
last fact is curiously misunderstood; it
is almost universally looked upon as an
actual melting Of the simultaneous
fat, and is considered to be natures
method of getting rid of the superhuity.
But this is not correct, for in spite of
its greasy appearance, sweat only con-
tains a trace of fatty matter. rarely
more than one-hundredth per cent, and
this comes, of course. from the cells of
the sudoriparous glands and primarily
from certain constituents of the blood.

den and too warmly clothed.-Cbicago

A SCANDALOUS ACT.
The Appointment Of . Republican Ere
booter to the Cabinet.

Tho Appointment of . Republican Free
booter to the Cabinet.
Mr.. Harrison's nomination Of Steve
Elkins for secretary of war is a public
scandal, and if there had been sense
of decency enough in the republican
party to control the senate the nomi-
nation would have been rejected. 1t
is often argued that a president is en-
titled to select his cabinet member
regardless of their character, as they
are his confidential advisers" and
really his private secretaries But
they are also heads of departments,
and they should not be exempt from
tests of fitness which apply to others
in the department service. The noto-
rious unfitness of cabinet Off GER
nominated by the president ought to
insure the rejection of the nomination,
regardless of the Interior and private
purposes the president may have had in
the premises. When scandalous NOM
nation is made to the senate it is the
senate's duty to reject it.
No one in the senate can conscien-
tiously deny that the nomination of
Elkins is scandalous. He is one of
the most desperate adventures in
the country. No other man in the
country combines SO thoroughly
the attributes of the political and
financial freebooter. His connec-
ton with the land rings and land
grabs of New Mexico is notorious.
He has operated in politics as a means
of promoting the most doubtful enter
prises that originate in Wall street
His undetermined connection with the
sealskin monopoly is in itself sufficient
cause for his rejection, but it is only a
single item in a long account He
stands with Quay, Dudley and Wanna
maker for all that is worst in republic
an politics. 1t is not merely that he is an
offensive partisan, but it is VIGOROUSLY
true that he is more a freebooter than
partisan. A more shameful nomina-
ton could not have been made. He
ought by all means to be rejected. -St
LouiS Republic.

SHOCKING ACCIDENT.

8ear-Ead Collision on tho New York
Central Railroad In which Nine Per-
soes were Killed and q Number Injured
-ABotier Explosion Adds to the Horror
Of eEe Wreck.
YoNKERs, N. Y, Dec. 25.-A shock
ing accident occurred last night on tho
New York Central between the st.
Louis express and the Niagara Falls
special train. Several persons are re-
ported killed and a number injured.
Some place the number of killed at
eight, while others claim that ten per-
sons were either crushed or scalded to
death. This accident was directly the
outcome of the collision which occurred
earlier in the evening in the tun-
mel at Sing Sing. The accident
blocked the road and trains were held
at both sides of the tunnel The weather
was very thick and this prevented the
'trainmen on the st. Louis express from
seeing the blockade in time to prevent
the collision. The locomotive of this
train crashed into the rear coach of the
Niagara express and several cars,
mostly sleepers, were badly wrecked
To add to the horror of the wreck the
boiler of the locomotive of the st. Louis
express exploded and the escaping
steam did deadly work among the I'M
fortunates who were in the wrecked
cars.
The scene at the wreck was indie
Scribable. The trainmen lost their
heads and ran out in frantic manner,
peering into the wreck at those who
lay within grooming and dying, but do
ing very little toward rescuing the VIC
3ims-
Finally a number of physicians and
citizens of this place reached the scene,
and the work of rescue began. The
dead and injured were placed on a spe-
s1al train and brought to this place.
Owing to the excitement it was impos-
sible to get anything like a list of the
killed aud injured. 1t is stated that a
number of the injured are likely to die.
Nine persons in all were killed,
three of whom have been identified.
Their names are A. NJ. Knight, conduc-
tor of the Wagner car Gibraltar; &. NJ.
Baldwin, of New York, and Thomas
". Tolley, of Boston.
The injured are as follows:
Fataily-T- v. Murphy, a lawyer of
New York: ID. Il. Ford, of New York;
Mrs E. ID. Ford. of New York, and g.
w. Holly, coiored porter of the Wagner
car

There were eighteen passengers in
the rear coach of the Niagara and Buff
faio express Only three of them es-
capped uJ,injured. The bodies of the
victims and the injured are on their
way to Yoni1ers and will reach here
about n IN.
