HENRY cLEws DISCUSSES IT'S FINANCIAL

HENRY CLEws DISCUSSES IT'S FINANCIAL
ASPECTS.
The fair to be successful must be q
national undertaking throughout, other
wise 1t is very apt to drop into a Sec
tional matter and be too much of
Chicago mutual admiration enterprise,
which will be most fatal to the worlds
fair. Representatives judiciously Sc
lected from all states should be select
ed by the management and should be put
on an equal footing of Importance with
those Of the state of Illinois. The num-
Der of these representatives from each
state should be determined by the num-
Der OF inhabitants, the same as gov
erns the election of state senator's
these positions to be entirely honorary.
The semi-annual meeting of these
representatives should take place in
Chicago for full and thorough deliber-
alton of all matters connected with the
national fair. regret to see that this
fair is too much called the Chicago fair;
this appellation should be dropped and
the term national should be substituted,
especially by the newspapers when re-
ferring to tin that way it will sooD
work up a more general and public
spirit instead of an antagonistic one,
which will be the result if it is placed
in the position Of a sectional under.
taking.
Of course it is all important to enlist
all foreign nations, and every induce
ment possible should be made to elicit
their interest therein so as to make 1t,
as was originally intended-a worlds
fair. So far as it is possible, the ma
tional and state governments should
contribute their support, and impart
thereby as much prestige and aid as 1t
is possible to give to It. All the various
states should vie with each other in the
ambition to make it a proud American
success. 1t is especially important to
make the fair financially successful as
well as otherwise. Nothing will con-
tribute so much to produce general sue
cess as success financially; that covers
the whole ground and betolsens success
in all departments.
believe that the best method to
make a grand if not magnificent result
of the worlds fair at Chicago is for the
people of the entire country all to work
together in unison for such happy re
suit. By all giving long pull, a strong
pull and pull all together, we will
make the American worlds fair (al-
though held at Chicago) brilliant sue
cess, not even second to the French ex.
position.

SLAMS GEM MINES.

Rubies and Sapphires In All the DigginEs
How They Are Mined.
The gem mines of Siam are at Krmg,
KRAFT and Phailin, points or districts de.
pendent on the seaport of Chantabun.
They are shortly to be leased; but at
present the only condition required for
entering the mines Is the payment Of
a small fee to the head man of the dis
trict.
The digger's first object is to discover
layer of soft, yellowish sand, in which
both rubies and sapphires are deposited.
This stratum lies at depths varying
from few inches to twenty feet, on a
bed Of subsoil in which no precious
stones are found. A pit is dug, and the
soil removed is taken to a neighboring
canal or stream, where it is mixed with
water and passed through an ordinary
hand-sieve. In his search for this Pc
culiar alluvial deposit, which is gener-
ally free from any admixture Of clayey
earth, the digger has often to penetrate
into the jungle that grows thiclkly
around, and combines the work of
clearing with the occupation of gem
digger.
No sapphire has yet been extracted of
higher value than about fourteen hum
bred dollars, or ruby of higher price
than forty-eight hundred dollars. No
artificial or mechanical processes for
washing the soil have so far been In
troduced. 1922. @
Rubies and sapphires are found at all
the diggings, often deposited side by
side In the same layer or stratum of
sand. The rubies are usually of a dull,
light-red hue. The sapphire is of a
dark, dull blue, without any of the
sillen gloss distinctive of the Burman
and Ceylon stones.

stfion, in which the majority of the great
nations of Europe refused to officially
recognize the exposition and did not
make any government exhibits, our
exposition has already had the official
acceptance and assurances from the fol-
lowing great governments: Great Brit
ain, France, Germany, Russia, Mexico,
Argentine Republic, Gautamala, Chill,
Brazil, Italy, China, Austria and Japan.
With these nations setting the example,
there can be no question that the rest
of the nations will accept the invitation
of our government and viii make ex-
hibits. H.
1t will be seventeen years since we
had an exposition In this country of any
Importance, and there need not be any
fear that the shrewd merchants of the
world will not take advantage of this
opportunity to increase TIER business
with us.
There cannot be to any extent any
politics In any commercial enterprise.
The managers Of the fair have, in the
spirit of the act of congress, divided all
of the great offices and all of the COM
mittees equally between the members
of both parties. Every committee OF
the national commission consists of an
even number, and the members OF
same are evenly divided between the
two parties. The six presidents and
vice presidents of the national commits
sion are also evenly divided between the
two parties. While the president of the
national commission is a republican, the
president of the Chicago board Is q
democrat.

A RESPONSIBLE New York firm an
nounces through the Evening Post that
it will take 5000 boxes of American tin
plate of the standard Bessemer steel
coke brand, to be delivered in Install
ments of 1000 boxes a month at the
highest market price of $50 a box,
This is very much higher than the price
before the passage of the Mckinley bill,
and if there is any American tin plate
on the market it ought to bring it.

THERE is no tariff on credulity; there
fore any one who pleases is at liberty to
believe that Mr. Harrison paid S25, 900 as
the expenses of his recent junket, as has
been stated by those friendly toward
him. It's dollars to peanuts, however,
that those figures with the ciphers
erased would represent a larger sum
than the trip cost Mr. Harrison. He is
far too thrifty a man to give up six
months salary for picnic lasting just
five weeks.

A Minute Alarm clock.

MT. William Madel, of Nienkirk, Ger many, has sent to his uncle, MT. Anthony Krooner, of this city, a sample of minute alarm clock invented by him, and patented in Germany, Italy, England and this coun- try. It is an interesting affair. It will sound the alarm precisely to the minute. For this purpose the alarm dial is divided into hours and minutes just like the large time dial and furnished with a pair of hands (hour hand and minute hand). The hands may thus be set to the minute If one wishes to be called at3 minutes of 5, the alarm hands are so set and the clock does the rest. It works perfectly. It is the intention of the patentee to sell the right to make the clock in this country.

 That we have discovered to-day that the fabric is "tender" in, places, caused by some imperfection, probably, in the dye used in coloring, and renders them liable to split or break out when subject to even an ordinary strain in the back of the coat. AS this is the fault only of the manufac- turer of the goods in the piece, and is an imperfection that can only be discovered by the wearing test, we would say that we desire all who have purchased this suit of us to return same and either get their money or any other suit they may select.
