ABOUT THE RUBY.
There Are Three Kinds, But Only One
 That Is True.

There Are Three Kinds, BuC Only Oue
 That Is True.
 There are three kinds of rubies-the oriental ruby, the spinel ruby and the balas ruby The first is the only true one. The latter differ considerably in composition from the first. The true ruby is composed almost exclusively of alumina, says the Jewellers Review. In the latter are only seven-tenths of alumina, the remainder being chiefly magnesia. Their color, moreover, is due partially to the oxide of chromium, a substance of which the genuine ruby has not trace.
 In commerce the balas ruby has much inferior value to the spinel. This is generally of vivid poppy red color; the balas is of violet rose, although Pegu has furnished white and white violet spinels, and Sudermania even bluish-gray ones. It can be seen at once, therefore, how extremely er- roneous would be a classification of gems by color or general appearance alone. The primitive form of the spinel ruby is like that of the diamond, eight sided, which distinguishes it at once from the oriental stone.
 The color of the genuine ruby is that of arterial blood, or pigeons blood, as it is called. It is extremely hard, and, after the sapphire, is the hardest of the corundums, which renders it difficult to understand why the earth so rarely gives it up. Its tint is as beautiful by artificial light as by day, and its powers of refraction so great that ancient be. lief credited it with power of emitting light. The ancients even supposed that it would shine through clothing with undiminished power.
 The largest ruby known is one men, tioned by Chardin as having been en- graved with the name of Sheik Sephy. Another noble ruby is in the possession of the shah of Persia. Its weight is put at one hundred and seventy-fve carats. A third, belonging to the king of Usa- par, was cut into hemispherical form and in 1853 was bought for thirteen thousand eight hundred and sixty-six dollars. A ruby possessed by Gustavus Adolphus, and presented to the czarina at the time of his journey to St. Peters burg, was the size of a small hens egg.

Wonderful Wing Power.

The best speed of railway train is only little more than half the velocity of the golden eagle, the flight of which is often at the rate of one hundred and forty miles an hour. Of all the birds the condor mounts the highest into the atmosphere. Humboldt describes the flight of this bird in the Andes to be at least twenty thousand feet above the level of the sea

In many countries of the world, most especially in England, France and Ger
 many, not only the peasants, but the middle classes and the nobles believe that bees are curiously and mysteriously connected with the veal or woe of the human family in general. It is a com mon saying in all the English shires that bees do not 'do- well' when the red-coats are engaged in wars abroad.

The Te1nesca1 Tin Mines.

A letter to the San Francisco
Chronicle, dated Los Angeles, Aug.
Goth, says: ga. F. Judson, of Col
ton, is an expert who spent two
weeks at Temescal examining tin
mines ir the interest of certain I'M
named parties. Despite the reports
started by Democratic papers for
campaign purposes, Mr.. Judson
asserts that the mining property
never was in better condition than
now. Instead of the ore giving out
he says that new discoveries have
been made showing that a vast
amount of tin is available, veins
which have hitherto been worked
developing into greater size as they
go down. The works, he says, are
producing more tin daily now than
ever before, and additional ma
chinery which is being put in will
increase the capacity. The capa-
city of the works is not great
enough to reduce in the next five
years all the tin ore that is now in
sight, said Mr.. Judson.

The Canadian Retaliation.

The facts in this controversy,
says the Washington Star. may be
included in "a brief statement,
which seems to be necessary be-
cause of the prejudice and i'll
founded comments of Canadian
newspapers, which talk of the
breach of solemn treaty engage
ments" by this country. The ex-
pressed purpose of the treaty of
Washington, article 81, is ''to Sc
cure to the citizens of the United
States the use of the Welland, st.
Lawrence and other canals in the
dominion on terms of equality with
the inhabitants of the dominion"
In return the treaty assures to
Canada the use of canals on this
side the line connected with the
navigation of the lakes or rivers
traversed by or contiguous to the
boundary" This is all as plain as
a pikestaff. But in the face of
these provisions the Canadian gov
eminent grants a rebate of Is cents
ton from the established tolls of
20 cents ton on the Welland canal,
between Lakes Erie and Ontario, to
grain-carrying vessels to Montreal
or Canadian ports east of Mon
treal for export and allows no re-
bate to vessels taking cargoes to
our ports on Lake Ontario and the
St. Lawrence. This tiat-footed dis
elimination violates the terms of
the treaty of Washington, and no
promise of the Canadian ministry
to remove the rebate at the end of
the season is sufficient atonement
for the act or entities that minis
try to any special immunity from
the consequences of their act. The
proclamation of the President I'M
der our act of Congress is very
moderate indeed, for while the act
authorized him to impose tolls of
50 ton on freight and SIS a pas
senger going through the $500"
canal, as matter of fact he i'm
poses no tolls on passengers, limits
the freight tolls to the rate charged
on the Welland canal by the Cana
dian government and fixes the
date at September 1, SO as to give
the dominion chance to adapt
itself to circumstances. It is an
easy thing for Canada to recede
and put herself in the right in this
matter.

VICTORIA, B. c., Aug. 30.-Four
sealing schooners were seized dur
ing the latter part of July in the
open sea, fifty miles off Copper
Island, by the Russian warship
Seabraka, and their crews, after
enduring all the insults and cruel
ties of a Russian prison, reached
here tonight, having secured pas
sage from Petropaulovski by the
American ship Majestic. The men
were forced to declare that they
were in Russian waters under pain
of being sent to Siberia. This is
the first time Russia has ever set
up a claim to jurisdiction over the
waters of the open sea west of the
American line.
