WAsHINGTcS, July 30.-It was a scene
for histori. painter when the greatest
deliberativc To- on this earth met to
plead TO an indictment by the president
Of the greatest nation on earth. The
word is not too strong. It was used in
political pleasantly by Tom Reed, but il
was like many another true word-spOllen
in jest. Every senator realized, and the
popular Judgment must soon or late CON
firm il, that the president letter TO Chair
man Wilson was a formal Indictment. and
that each Of the accused must address
himself to It or by silence confess guilt
There was no shrinking from the issue

Clay and Calhoun, of Benton, Wright,

seven Republicans stood up in turn and

Some of David Dudley Fields Friends.

From Harper's Weekly.
When last / saw MIR. Field l asked him
who impressed him as the greatest man
Of his time. He at once replied, 'Lin-
coin" Then he went on: "Lincoln was
the most-sided man | think l ever met
Webster, Clay, Calhoun, and others were
great men in their way, but Lincoln was
great in a multitude of ways. There
seemed hidden springs of greatness In
this man that would spring forth in the
most unexpected way, and even the men
about him were at loss to account for
the ord er of the mans genius"
Mr.. Field smiled when Horace Gree
ley's name was mentioned. HE was a
very great man in some ways" said MIR.
Field, land a very weak one in others.
He was almost as many-sided as Lincoln
himself, and was a wonderful combina-
tion Of goodness and weakness. He was
my friend for many years, and my CO.
worker in helping TO nominate Lincoln,
but his own nomination in 1872 struck mo
as the grotesque ending of a movement
that promised much. AS President, he
would have been used by selfish men for
their own ends"
Here Mr.. Field took up Gen. Grant. ''r
knew Mr.. Grant WELL" he said, Though
not over-intimately. For Grant the sol-
der had the highest admiration, and
watched his career with appreciative in
terest. He was great general, but I
always held that he was unsuited for tho
Office of President, since his education
and training were not such as to lit him
for the Office under the trying conditions
that then existed. 1t afterwards trans
pired that was in the main right"
Samuel j. Tilden," Mr.. Field went on,
twas my friend and neighbor for many
years, and have always believed that
Mr.. Tilden and the people of this country
were wronged by the decision of the
electoral commission. Personally held
close and friendly relations with Mr..
Tilden. His was one of the keenest
analytical minds l have ever known, aud
his capacity for politics as well as real
craftsmanship was remarkable"
asked Mr.. Field to what he attributed
his remarkably good health ia his ad.
vanced years.
First, coed constitution, and second,
hard work, was the quick reply Hard
work, my young friend, never killed any
one. Idleness has slain its thousands.
Then, again, exercise has helped me.

RUB1Es MAY BE CHEAP NOW.
Made Out of Clay For $50 Carat by
French Chemists.

from the new 1 OTk sum-
This is the story that retail ieweler
on Broadway tells: "a man came in here
the other morning and took out magnif-
cent stone, which he put on the counter
and asked me what l thought of it. Well,
I thought it was a ruby worth about 500
or $500 The color was a deep pigeon s
blood, and while magnifer, showed little
spots, like bubbles, in the stone, they
didn't interfere with its transparency or
brightness. What is it WORTH said l.
Sixty dollars a carat, said he. | looked
at him in amaZement. 'Then's it's paste,
said l. Not bit of it, said he. l tested
it for hardness, and it was all right. Then
the man explained that, while it was a
real ruby it was produced by artificial
means. A French chemist made it. Very
few of these stones have come to this
country so far, and in most of those that
have there was no material that could be
used for jewelry, the crystals were so
small. This puts different phase on the
business"
Artificial crystalization of alumina was
accomplished several years ago. The
color in the resulting mineral was superb,
but the individual crystals were so minute
that microscope was needed to diStin-
guish their angles. They were united by
their bases to a crust of anonymous alum
ina, and sDarkled like tiny red stars
whenever the light played across them.
The natural ruby doubtless took years,
and very likely, centuries to form. The
chemical ruby. which is precisely the
same as the natural ruby, is made in a
few weeks. 1t is almost pure alumina-
the earth of the metal aluminum-the red
color being due to a fraction of one per
cent of iron. The sapphire is the same as
a ruby, except for its coloring matter, and
it has quite range of cOlor-yellow, pur-
pie, pink, gray and white. Corundum is
the common variety of alumina, and is
much used in the arts, emery being its
commercial form.
The ruby is the most costly of all gems,
a stone of deep color, far outranking the
diamond in value, so the discovery that it
can be made in laboratory is disquiet-
ing to people who deal in this esteemed
mineral II has got into the courts in
France already, in a suit to recover the
money paid for a ring. The decision was
that the chemical product had no right to
be considered as a ruby, in spite of the
fact that in crystal form, weight, hard
ness. color, and chemical composition, it
was ruby. Artificial means are en-
ployed 10 produce it. but it is nature, as
sisted by the chemist TO be sure, that
shapes, aud colors, and hardens it. 1t
would be absurd to say that machine
made ice is not ice, because it was not
taken from the surface of a pond. The
artificial ruby. TO allow the term, is as
durable and beautiful as the best product
Of the Burmah mines, and it is only the
magnifer that shows the little bubbles
in IT, IL is the only one of the precious
stones that is manufactured, although
science may duplicate the others In the
future. The report that diamonds had
been chemically produced is authorita-
lively denied.

In addition, the police have citizens
ust with subscriptions amounting to
something over 500.
Almost all of the money which has been
subscribed has been paid in and is now in
the hands of the committee, consisting of
Aldermen Haines and Dixon and Messrs.
Jobn R. Young, p. A. Stovall, B. H.
lew and A. B. Hull. Alderman
Hai1es is chairman and treasurer of the
committee, and all money collected by
others than the committee should be
turned over to him at once.
What disposition will be made of the
fund has not yet been decided upon.
Mayor McDonough said yes svrday, when
asked about the matter, that he did not
think it was the province of council to
decide in what way the money should be
used. He thought the subscribers to the
fund should do that Alderman Haines
said the committee had received several
hundred suggestions as to the proper
manner in which the fund should be dis
posed Of
The majority Of the subscribers, how
ever, seemed to favor the purchase of a
home for Mrs Neve and her children with
a portion of the money, and the invest
ment of the remainder for their benefit.
This, Mr.. Haines seemed to think, the
most desirable plan The committee, ne
said, does not desire to take the entire
responsibility of disposing of the fund
and if there is any movement on the part
of the subscribers in favor of any feasible
plan it will receive prompt consideration.
The subscriptions would have been
double what they are were it not for the
general scarcity of ready money.

POLICEMAN NEvE's FAMILY.
The Morning News Suggests q Sub
scription for Their Assistance.

There is no nobler death than that
which befalls man while in the dis
charge of his duty. Policemen are the
watchful guardians of the lives and prop
erty of their fellow citizens. They are
constantly exposing themselves to danger,
and now and then one of them sacrifices
his life in serving the public.
J. c. Neve, one of the bravest and most
efficient members of Savannah's police
force, was shot to death Saturday by
worthless negro, a fugitive from justice,
whom he had been ordered to arrest.
A widow and young children mourn for
him. They have been deprived not only
of one who was dear to them, but also of
protector and their sole source of SUD-
port
They should not be permitted to suffer
from want. Policeman Neve did not hest
tate to risk his life to protect the interests
OF the people Of Savannah, and they
should not hesitate to extend a helping
hand to those who were dependent upon
him.
On the suggestion of the MORN
ING NEWS the mayor has APP
pointed a committee to solicit sub
scriptions from Savannah's citizens to a
fund to aid Mrs Neve and her children.
Those who wish to contribute to the fund
atonce can send their names with the
amounts they wish to give to the MORN
ING NEWS, and their subscriptions will be
acknowledged in the columns of this
paper Sums for small amounts, fractions
Of 81, will be received and acknowledged.
