YELLOW
The Process by W1icI, They Are Converted
Into White Gems.

Into White Gems.
NumeroussGttcmpts have been made
during the last few years to convert the
yellow Cape diamonds into white gems.
= short time ago il was announced that
a Hclrian had discovered the secret and

the Paris Journal.
NJ. Gilon, a chemist. conducted a Sc
rics of experiments to discover the way
To change the color Of diamonds. In ac-
c0rdance with the principle of physics
governing complementary colors Gilon
prepared q solution of alcohol and ami
line violet, to which he added Il few
grains Of bcnzoc gun He dipped n yell
low diamond into this fluid and allowed
il to remain . quarter Of an hour. When
he took il out again the diamond was
white but it had lost its brilliancy.
Gilon renewed the experiment with n
strong solution Of a%nilinc. allowing the
diamond to rest in the mixtL-e only n
few seconds. When the gem wa taken
out OF the solution it was pure wLite
and sparkled brilliantly. Weeks later
the diamond had lost none OF it's white
ness or brilliancy, and Gilon is on
WINGED that gems SO treated will long
retain these qualities. This would
seem to prove that the change is posi-
BILE.
II the "falsifed" stone is looked at

Formerly it was thought sufficient to
dip a false diamond into alcohol to
discover the treatment TO which il had
been subjected and to restore the yell
low color. That often s%ufiiccs, il is
true. but GilOn's experiments made the
color 50 solid that an alcohol bath failed
to affect it.

Themselves Into JAIL
Some year ago the friends Of n Par
isian thief adopted 4 decidedly unique
method of carrying on a clandcstinc
correspondence with while he was
awaiting trial. One day the jailcr was
visited By the prisoners betrothed,
who asked him to give her lover IN en-
velope. This upon being opened was
found 70 contain simply 4 small lock OF
her hair. around which was folded n
leaf OF a book. The jailer did not con-
slider IL worth his while To deliver this
souvenir TO the culprit, and therefore
threw IL aside.
4 day or two later I similar Enclosure
Was handed in at the prison gate md

the course of a week another was left
by she anne person. This aroused the
suspicion of the governor of the prison,
10 whom had been detailed the circum-
stances lie determined To investigate
the meaning, and accordingly first en-
amined the printed leaf. This he
found was torn from d novel aud con-
tanned tw~enty-six lines On each side.
He then turned his attention TO the
hair and discovered that there were

This puzzled him for awhile. and then,
suddenly jumping 10 the conclusion
that there must be zone connection be-
tween the numbers of the printed lines
and the number of hairs, he laid each
of the latter along the line of the page
they respectively reached, beginning
with the shortest hair al the top Of the
leaf.
After changing them about several
times he discovered that each HAIR
pointed 20 q different letter. andthe com
biuation thus produced formed 4 slang
sentence, By mcans of which the pris-
lei was given 10 understand that his
friends had ascertaincd the day on
which he was TO be taken TO court and
were determined TO make 4 bold at

his appearance.
Taking the cue the governor adopted

was made, and as a natural consequence
