and color are very rarely found. But, though really good turquoises are rare, there is abundance of imperfect and for all orientals prize them, and the very poorest like to possess even green and spotted one set In tin ring. It is more than likely, however. that the hill contains an abundance of good stones. Some of those now found look excellent at first, but the color in most cases soon fades, or a green tinge is developed, or spots appear on them. Some of these white spots can only be detected at first with glass, and then as mere speck but in time they may expand and spread right across the stone. The color of most faded tur- quolses can be temporarily revived by dampness. Tn Meshed no one would dream of buying a turquoise of good color without possessing it first for some days, for it Is the most treacher- ous of all precious stones. The tur- quoise as soon as they are cut in Me- shed, are nearly all sold at once for ex- port, and their price in the town rises at least 1000 per cent. Some years ago one could obtain in Meshed good tur- quoises of perfect shape, fine color, fair size, and without a flaw for few shll- lings each TurQuoises at present are far cheaper at Tiflis and Constantino- pie than at Meshed, and at those towns one might perhaps find some of good color which have been in stock for years.-London Times

A Marked Improvement in Its Business
 Since the Election The New Union Sta
 ton in Boston, Etc.
 Boston, Dec 9.--Vice President Ken drick of the New York New Haven and Hartford road said to-day: since the election we have noticed marked improvement in business, especially in our freight department. Passenger traffic holds up well, and in this quar- ter we have no reason to complain. Our improvements are progressing re- markedly well. and by April we hope to have the proposed changes on the Providence division in readiness for tho electrical equipment. We shall use the third rail system which we have found to work so satisfactorily on our Weymouth branch. With regard to awarding the contract for the electric work, hardly think any one company will get it exclusively, for we shall let it to the several large concerns in a manner satisfactory to all Before another summer we shall have every thing in good running order"
 With respect to the published report that the road is contemplating the use of electricity in and about Norwalk, Conn., both as motive and lighting power, MT Kendrick said That is true in every respect, except that l re- gard it as further progressed than in mere contemplation We shall make these changes as soon as we can get to it."
 Dispatches from Boston in regard to the new Union station indicate that the plans as first announced have been modified somewhat, to permit of ar engagements for the joint handling of steam and electric line trains and for system of electric lighting and signals for the station and adjacent yards4 Power for these purposes will be gen. erated at the station. The Terminal company has secured all the land as far as Fort Point channel, and con- struction work will begin early in Jan uary. Plans are to be submitted to the city officials for approval before that time.

NIsHAPuR TURQUOISE MINES.
Lazy Methods by Which the Stones Are
 Gotten Out

Lazy Methods by Which the Stones Are
 Gotten Out
 The famous turquoise mines of Mis- hapur, in northern Persia, are believed to be the only turquoise mines in the world which have been worked exten-. sively or which have produced the tur- quoise of perfect shape and color. On approaching the mines from Nishapur after entering the low hills and grad ually ascending, one arrives, first at the villages inhabited by the miners, which are on undulating ground about 5000 feet above sea level. After anoth- CT gradual ascent for about mile by a very good road the foot of hill about 1000 feet in height is reached. All the mines are on the south face of the hill, and from the first to the last the dis tance as the crow flies is not more than half mile. The Reish mine, which is the only one worked on a large scale or with vigor, produces the greater part of the turquoses at present sent to market. It is near the top of one of the highest ridges at an altitude of about 5000 feet above the sea level. The entrance Is a hollowed-out cave, about twelve yards across, with ver- tical shaft some five yards in diameter. Two men were reclining at the mouth of this haft with their back against the wall of the cave. and turning with their bare feet a ricketty wooden wheel which brought up the debris from be- low in a small sheepskin bag holding no more than peck perhaps. This was received by 8 third man, who unlocked, emptied and re-attached 1t. The oth- CT two men removed their feet, and the bag went down with a run some forty feet where three other men were sim ilarly engaged on a ledge in the shaft The mine itself is eighty feet or ninety feet from the surface. The miners first descend by means of a narrow diagonal tunnel, and then scramble down the rough sides of the shaft.
 At the mouth of the cave, which is on the precipitous hillside, half a dozen men were seated close together on 8 ledge, breaking with small hammers the fragments of rock as they were brought up from below. When tur- quoise was discovered it was placed on one side in its rough state, incased in rock, and sent to Meshed TTnfortu- nately though the mine is very pro- ductive and the turquoises of good shape, their color soon goes. Since the Abdur Regal mine fell in it may be said that the stones of perfect shape

NEW ELECTRIC LINE PROJECTED

To Connect Westville and Naugatuck--
 Projectors Will Ask the Legislature
 for a Charter-Prominent Capitalists
 Interested.
 The projectors of suburban electric railway to connect Westville and Nau- gatuck, running through Woodbridge and Seymour, gave official notice yes terday that they would apply for a charter to put tho road through at the coming session of the legislature.
 This plan has been on foot for sev- eral years and is backed by prominent capitalists of Woodbridge, including Morris F. Tyler, Dr. Thomas H. Rus sell, Dwight N. Clark Robert Payne Stiles Williams, Charles F. Walker Rollin c. Newton and Nathan P. Mer- win.
 Morris F. Tyler and Dr. Russell are residents of New Haven but have sum- mer residences in Woodbridge
 The projectors will ask for a charter for the incorporation of a company to construct road to be operated by cleo tric!ty. The layout proposed is from the corner of Orange and Main streets in Westville, through Main street, out along the Woodbridge stage road. past the suburban residences to the Wood bridge town house, thence west to Sey- mour, opposite the Naugatuck railroad depot, thence to Bethany Center, thence along the old Litchfield turnpike to Naugatuck
 The above route is the one preferred but another one has been surveyed along nearly the same line, except that it passes more generally through the lots.
 The names of the persons attached to the notice are all prominent Wood bridge citizens. MT. Tyler is president of the Southern New England Tele- phone company, Dr. Russell is a lead ing practitioner of this vicinity, MT Payne is the leading storekeeper of Woodbridge, and Mir. Newton is se- lectman of that town.
 Mir. Tyler is desirous of seeing the road go through, though he is not financially interested.
 The road, if constructed, will be of great benefit to the people of Wood bridge and Of New Haven. The fnan-
