NEEDS A DELICATE TOUCH.
The Diamond Setter and His Method of
 liking Precious Stones.

The Diamond Setter and His Method of Fixing Precious Stones.
 Few people outside the jewelry trade have any idea how the brilliants they buy and wear are fastened into their settings, and great many retail jew elers who have sold jewelry for years are equally as ignorant, says the Pitts burgh Dispatch. The art of setting jewelry is comparatively simple, the skill of setter depending on his knowl- edge of the strength of material and the delicate touch required, which can only be gained by years of practice. There are only four distinct methods of setting a diamond, though mount ings are made which involve two or more of these methods. The most com mon is the clamp, or claw, setting. This comes to the setter with every clamp as straight and square as a fence picket. He imbeds this mounting, whatever it may be, in warm shellac broom handle is generally used) leav- ing the setting exposed. This cools and holds the delicate pieces of jew elry firm in all parts. He then, with thin file, sharpens all the clamps, bringing them up to sharp points. Then with scraper or graver shaped like chisel tall of his cutting tools are miniature chisels of different shapes), he digs out a bearing or shoulder for the edge of the stone on the inside of each clamp; he now, with a pair of sharp-pointed pliers, bends the clamps inward or outward as they happen to require, until the stone will just squeeze into the circle of clamps.
 Then the stone is pressed firmly down until the edge rests squarely on the bearing of each clamp. This leaves the edge of the clamps sticking up past the edge of the stone. The next step is to push all these ends over the edge and burnish them tight. A pushing tool is used for this, a piece of soft steel about three inches long, filed to. a small square end and fitted in round handle. When the clamps are all firm in their places they are bright-cut. as the term is. The clamps are trimmed to a point with three cuts, two on the sides and one on the top. The setter cuts away from the stone, and must be careful not to dig too deep into the gold, or he will push the whole clamp away from tine stone; then, to make a good job. the stone must come out and the clamp be bent inward again. Some who manufacture the finest goods do not believe in bright-cutting clamps on rings, as the sharp edges left are very severe on gloves worn over them. A setter employed by these firms merely files the clamp to point, and the pol isher buffs it round on top when the work gets its last finish.

The popularity of Chamberlain 8 Cough remedy and the high esteem in which it is heid, leads us to believe it to be an article of great worth and mer- it. We have the pleasure of giving the experience of three prominent citizens of Redondo Beach, Cal, in the use of the remedy. MT. A. V. Trudell says: "I have always received prompt relief when I used Chsmberlain's Cough re- me6y." MT. James Orchard says: "I am satisfied that Chamberlain's Cough remedy cured my cold" MT. J. M.

OUR POSITION.

If it is a sin for the BEE to defend
the ladies in the Rs corder's Office
against the vile attacks of the white
press. then the BEE has committed
a great sin.
Some of those who have dislike
for the present incumbent of that
office were at a loss to know why
the BEE defended the colored wo-
men of that cffice.
Because the BEE has been on
posed to the recorder, is there any
reason why it should be opposed TO
the employees of that Office, and
especially the women? Notwith-
standing the opposition of the BEE
to Mr.. Taylor, it will not join i'll
with the enemy in crusade against
the colored ladies of the office.
Other methods must be resorted
to. Mr.. Taylor must show that he
Is incompetent for the cffice.
The BEE will condemn wrong
whenever and wherever found, but
1T will not join In upon subterfuges
and abuse of colored ladies to carry
out notorious acts
Who are these white women of
whom the Times complain or defend
for their association with colored
ladies?
The BEE has the highest respect
and confidence for the color, d wo
men Of the Recorders Office, and
no matter how wrong Taylor is the
BEE will defend the colored ladies
Of that office, should it become
necessary TO appeal to the people
for the retention of the present
incumbent.

THE CHIEF HAS RETURNED,

DR.. Daniel II. Williams, the Surgeon
who has been absent on account of sick
ness, returned to the city last Sunday
evening in good health, and prepared
to assume charge Of the hospital, which
has been so we'll conducted in his alb
sence by DR.. Francis, acting surgeon in
charge, and his assistant Dr.. Shadd.
The new chief will make quite
number of improvements. The first
one will be to fit up hail Tor the trained
nurses. Miss Hi]yard, from the Provi-
dence Hospital OF Chicago, will be ap
pointed Chief of the Nurses Home, a
new feature in connection with the hos
pital.
1t is the desire and wish of the new
surgeon to have persons interested in
the success of the hospital to contribute
books, pictures, or anything else to the
Nurses Home.
The improvements that will be made
will add greatly to the hospital. Ihe
two assistants to Dr.. Williams, Drs.
Fsancis and Shadd, will give the new
chief their undivided support, and 1t is
the wish and hope of the people that
these three young men will do all i'll
their power to give to them the fuest
hospital in the country. DR.. Francis
has the most implicit confidence in the
good judgment and ability of his supe-
rior officer, and the confidence the peo-
pie of this city has in Drs. Francis and
Shadd, and the support they intend to
give them, will no doubt encourage DR..
Williams to do great work at this insti-
tuition.
From time to time the BEE will note
the wonderful improvements made at
this hospital. The public and the
friends of the hospital are requested to
visit the hospital and inspect it.

DID HE GO OR WAS HE LED
ASTRAY?

Our genial friend. Hon. III. G. G.
Astwood, has at last returned to
the Republican fold. He has de.
clared himself in favor of The Re
publican party and denounced the
party that refused to confirm him
for Calais, France. Why should
Mr.. Cleveland be condemned? He
was friendly TO Mr.. Astwood; he
recognized the merits of worthy
Democrats and nominated several
for high offices.
Mr. Astwood may be right, his
reasons may be we'll founded, but
the BEE doesn't think that Mr..
Cleveland should be condemned
because his party refused to CON firm
Mr.. Astwood.
Mr.. Astwood praises the man
who defeated his confirmation and
condemned the man who elevated
him. Mr.. Cleveland elevated
Astwood by nominating him for an
Office to which no negro has ever
been nominated, and if was the
Hon. Fred. Douglass and his SOD
Charles who prevented his confirm
alton.
Mr.. Cleveland is condemned and
Mr.. Douglass who dlsgraced Mr..
Astwood is praised.
