Thoughtlessness.

Farmer Simpson was an exceed
ingly mlld-natured man, and would
find excuses for the shortcomings OF
his neighbors, for the faults of his
horses and, in fact, for every un-
pleasant thing that came in his way.
He purchased COW, and had great
difficulty in keeping her in the pas
ture.
"She's kind of rovin' critter but
she means well, )" he said, after walk
of several miles in pursuit Of her.
One morning he was milking the
COW, when she began to kick violently,
upset the stool, sent the pail flying,
and all the milk was spilled.
The farmer got up, and contem-
plating the ruin, said gravely TO a
witness OF the disaster:
"We!l, now, that's the worst fault
this cow has "
Then after moments meditation,
feeling that perhaps he had been un-
necessarily severe, he added. THAT
is, IL you can call il a fault; maybe
it's only thoughtlessness.

something About Diamonds.

Ample testimony has recently ap-
peared in scientific papers confirma-
tory Of the fact that the hardness Of
diamonds is not perceptibly reduced
by cutting and polishing. One cor
respondent states that in his early ex-
perie nee he was accustomed to select
a gem with II smoothly glazed surface.
and after the stone was split in a
cleavage plane inclined at rather
sharp angle to the natural face Sc
lected, this split face being ground
and polished. In this way he was
enabled to obtain at several points
short knife edges, which gave superb
results in ruling.
1t was soon found, however, that
after ruling several thousand rather
heavy lines the diamond was liable
to lose its sharp cutting edge, ana
this experience became so frequent
that he was compelled to resort to
the method now employed. that Of
grinding and polishing both faces to
knife edge. He has one ruling dia.
mond prepared in this way which
has been in constant use for four
years, ana ltS capacity Tor good work
has not yet been reduced in the
slightest degree.
G. f. Kunz, who took part in the
discussion on this subject mentioned
incidentally that there is no difficulty
in even the most inexperienced per-
son distinguishing the real from the
imitation diamond. IL the stone

a diamond, whereas putting the gem
into flame would not differentlate
the diamond from the white topaz, OF
the white Ziroon or the white sap
phire or the white tourmaline, or any
other white stone that is not fusible.
But the absolute and most simple test
for diamonds is to draw the stone
sharply over piece of unpainted
board in a dark room. Every dia-
mond phosphoresces by friction.

CHOLERA IN GOTHAM.

Health Inspectors, Who Discovered the
Fact by Accident.
Had Twenty-two Deaths.

Had Twenty-Five Deaths
NewYork special:
The scourge has reached New York.
Quarantine officials discovered that the
steamship Moravia, from Hamburg, had
a great deal OF sickness on board and
that twenty-five persons had died on
the trip over. The ships physicians
told the health officers that some OF the
passengers on the ship were suffering
from cholerine. but that 1t was not gen.
uine Asiatic cholera. An immediate in-
tspeotion OF the passengers was made.
and as result the vessel was ordered
to the lower bay. Thirteen OF the per-
sons who died on the way over were
Polanders. Twenty OF them were chill
dren. All the dead were buried at sea
on the days that they died.
AS soon as the discovery was made
that so many persons had died and that
there was a great deal OF sickness on
board the quarantine officers refused to
permit person to leave the ship, or
dered 1t to weigh anchor and proceed to
the island selected for cholera patients.
It was discovered by the officers who
made the examination OF the steerage
passengers that there were three cases
of measles on board. The health
officials refused to permit anyone to

leave. The news Of the discovery was
brought to quarantine station by the
health boat.
They Call 1t "Cho' crime"
DR.. jenkins, the Health officer, re-
ceived the report Of the officials who
boarded the vessel, and gave orders to
isolate the steamer completely. He
said that from the casual investigation
made he thought the disease was, as
stated by the ships surgeon, cholerine,
but that the persons who had died came
from the infected provinces of Germany
and Russia. AS far as he had been in
formed there was little sickness on the
vessel. When she dropped anchor at
quarantine he had not time to make a
thorough examination of the cause of
the deaths and sickness on board, but
will do so this afternoon. Some of the
passengers on board of the Moravia did
not know OF the existence OK the disease
on board.
ships Oflcers Suppressed the News.
1t is said that when the health officers
first boarded the Moravia the ships Off
GERS told them that there was no sick
ness onlboard other than the measles,
and exhibited q clean bill of health from
the health officers at Hamburg. The
ships officers appeared reticent, and the
presence of cholerine or Asiatic cholera,
as it might turn out to be, was not dis
covered until the officers had nearly
completed their examination.

My last bulletin gave forecasts OF q
storm wave to cross the continent from
18th to 18th, and the next will reach the
Pacific coast about the 18th, cross the
western mountains by the close Of the
10th, the great central valleys from goth
to 22d, and the Eastern States about
the 23d.
This storm will be more of ordinary
severity in the Mississippi valley, and
nothing will be lost by being on the
lookout for local storms of great energy
about that time.
A cool wave will follow this disturb
ance, crossing the western mountains
about the 21st, the great central valleys
about the 23d, and the Eastern States
about the 25th.
This cool wave will bring the first
frosts OF any note, and about the 23d to
25th light frosts may be expected as far
south as Nebraska, Iowa, northern Illi-
nois, Michigan, northern Indiana,
northern Ohio, New York, and the
northern New England States.
Rainfall will be generally we'll dis
tributed, and the drouth will be broken
in Mexican, Arizona, southern Califor-
MIA and New Mexico before the month
closes. The fall season promises well
for corn and cotton gathering.
