WOMEN ON DUTCH RAILWAYS.

Long Hours and Small Pay for Doing
Comparatively Light Work.
The British consul at The Hague says
that, rs regards the employment of
women and children on railways, It is
stated that the latter are mostly made
use of at the several railway works,
their parents being glad Of the one or
two forms they are able to earn for
comparatively light work They ere
occasionally put to similar work on toe
permanent way, being paid at the rata
Of rs or 50 cents. Tho women are
chiefly employed in cleaning the car
riages, working on an average eight
hours a day on the state railway, with
light work on alternate Sundays, and
getting IA forms IS cents wages per
fortnight; on the Holland railway ten
hours q day without Sunday work,
with a daily wage of / form so cents,
or else watching the lines, turn about
with their husbands, the "wegwach-
tiers" or cantonniers On the state
railway their work averages twelve
hours (tho men taking the night duty
rad they are paid at the rate of %
cents day, being lodged besides; the
husbands earning 90 cents a day. On
the Holland railway the average hours
OF work are about the same, the woman
receiving pay at the rate of % cents a
day, 1 form IS cents week being,
however, deducted for the lodging al
lowed them
For women with families the work Is
considered trying, especially when they
n-re kept on duty as long as sixteen
hours, as is the case at certain points,
where the traffic happens to be very
heavy. As regards the general condi-
tons under which the persons in the
employ of the great Dutch railway
companies carry on their work, the tes-
timony of the numerous witnesses ex-
smined by the commission, with a few
exceptions, went to show that they are
well satisfied both as to the wages they
receive and as to the treatment
awarded them. One witness was of the
opinion that the wages Of railway
servants compared favorably with those
OF most factory hands.

THREE KINDS OF RURiES
The Oriental Ia Most Valuable and Is OF
ArteriaI blood Collar


There are three kinds of rubies-the
oriental ruby, the spinel ruby and the
balas ruby. The first is the only true
one, according to the jewelers. Review.
The latter differ considerably in COM
parison from the first. The true is
composed almost exclusively of alum
ina. In the latter are only seven-tenths
of alumina, the remainder being chiefly
magnesia. The color, moreover, is due
partially to the oxide of chromium, q
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 a vivid
poppy-red color; the balas is of violet
rose, although Pegu has furnished white
and white violet spinels, and Suder-
mania even blush gray ones. 1t can be
seen at once, therefore, how extremely
erroneous 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 sap
phire is the hardest Of the corundums,
which renders it difficult to understand
why the earth so rarely gives it up
It's tint is as beautiful by artificial light
as by day, and its powers Of refraction
so great that ancient belief credited il
with power of emitting light. The an
clients even supposed that it would shine
through clothing with undiminished
power.
The largest ruby known is one men
toned by Chardin as having been en-
graved with the name of Sheik Sephy. ]
Another noble ruby is in possession OF
the shah of Persia. It's weight is put
at one hundred and seventy-fve karats. /
A third, belonging to the king of
Usapar, was cut into hemispherical /
form, and in 1858 was bought for thir-
teen thousand eight hundred and sixty |
six dollars. A ruby possessed by Gus |
tavus Adolphus, and presented to the .
czarina at the time of his journey to St |
Petersburg, was the size of a small .
hens egg.

HALF FARE FOR PREACHERS.

Western Railroads Are Glad to Encourage
Humaniziag Gentle men OF the Cloth.
1--WE are only too glad to give the
preachers a half-rate,' remarked a
western railroad official 10 n st. Louis
Chronicle reporter. The eastern roads
don't do it, but every road in the west
does. No consideration of sentiment
prompts US to it, either, can assure
you. 1t is strictly in the line Of bust
ness. We have found out that where
there are the most preachers there are
also the most people of industry and
productive thrift. There are vast
stretches of waste places in the west,
which, when built up by the kind of
people who encourage the growth Of a
wholesome religious sentiment will
add immeaSurably to our revenue. For
that reason had rather give a pass to
the humblest preacher than half-rate
to the snperb Ingersou. have noticed
that as the preacher has pushed his
way westward the frontier has receded,
until now there is none of il left He
is now taking the byways and the
paths and the wilderness is disappear
ing and the barren prairies are BIOS
soming with crops. SO You see that,
from business standpoint, it pays as
to encourage him TO travel about by
allowing him a half-rate fare Its diff
ferent with the eastern roads All Of
their territory is developed TO its fullest
capacity, and they can't hope for in
creased productiveness through the
preachers ministrations Therefore.
