CHEYENNE, Wyo., May 16.-Gov. Bar
sour has made known his intention to
again refuse to deliver the prisoners of
the rustler war to the Johnson county
authorities. The second demand was
made on Thursday by Deputy Sheriff
Snider. The executive says he does
not consider that quiet has been re-
stored In the disturbed sections. He
fears that there would be more serious
trouble Il the stockmen were taken to
the scene of their crimes. The John
son county people now at the railway
have placed theirgrievances with Judge
Black, in whose district they are To-
Gated. He tells them that the law

Florence for moment was delighted.
And all that money for him. for him alone!
He thought first of the Eberality of the

and then of his little Sylvia, whose oft-ex-

his partners hand with a radiant smile.

STREET CAR BLOWN UP.
ADynamite Explosi on In the Streets
Buda Pasth

ID yHSHlte Tx plOs1 Oh IN the Streets OF
Buda Pesth.
BUDA PEsTH, May IA great fensa-
ton was caused today by an explosion in
Andrassey street, one of the fashionable
thoroughfares. AS one of the electric cars
moved along there was a sudden jar, fol-
lowed by terrific roar. The shock was
great and the people in the car were terri
bly, frightened. The explosion was caused
by dynamite cartridge concealed along
the rail in such manner that the hange
on the wheels would explode it.
Search showed that seven other car
tridges had been placed alongside the rails,
but In some manner they became dis-
placed. This was fortunate, for had tho
cartridges exploded simultaneously, no
doubt the car would have been blown to
pieces end many occupants killed. The
wheel that struck the cartridge was blown
off the axle and the bottom of the car bad
ly shattered. Nearly all the passengers
were more or less sever Iy bruised, hut
none injured fatally.

HOW AGATEs ARE MADE.
They Come Mostly From Brazil and are
Cut in Germany.

"Agates are kind Of quartz" said a
mineraIUgIsO to Washington Star
writer. "Most Of them come from
South America, and especially from
Brazil, where they are found In great
quantities. From thence they are
shipped as ballast in vessels bound to
Hamburg, Germany, and from that
point they are forwarded to Oberstein.
The latter town is the great agate mar
ket OF the world.
'At Oberstein the agates are sorted
into lots, according to Quality, and sold
at auction. After this they are sent TO
the mills to be cut and polished. Along
the Idar river, between the towns Of
Oterstein and Idar, there are more than
$50 mills for working agates. Each
mill has several big grindStoneS, on
which the valuable bits OF quartz are
ground, being usually attached to small
sticks for that purpose Choice speCi-
mems are preliminarily cut into rough
shapes with steel wheel and diamond
powder. Common ones, however, are
merely broken into the forms desired
with hammer and chisel. BY long ex-
perience the workmen acquire great
dexterity in applying their blows, so as
to obtain the requisite fractures.
"At each revolving grlndstone two
men work. They do not sit or stand,
but lie outstretched on wooden stools
made to fit their bodies. While holding
the agate to the grindstone they get a
purchase with their feet against blocks
of wood fastened to the floor After be-
ing ground the agates are polished on
cylinders OF hard wood, which are fed
as they revolve with mixture OF tripoli
and water.
"Agates are often colored artlficially.
For this purpose they are first placed in
olive oil and heated. Then they are put
into sulphuric acid and heated again.
Owing to the fact that some layers OF
agate are quite porous, while others are
dense, the oil enters the porous layers,
where it is blackened by the acid, thus
making the contrast between the colors
of the layers more striking and enbsnc-
ing the beauty of the stones. Other
colors are given to agates by soaking
in different solutions and otherwise, but
these methods are trade secrets"
