Remarkable Gems Described by FOur
teepth Century Writer.

teebth Century Writer
A very curious description Of Babylon
found in a manuscript Of the fourteenth
century was published in 1882 "A
city" says the author rich In the
gifts Of the ages, safe from disease and
distress. where all faces are joyous. and
where the three holy rivers flow over
costly stones, some OF which dispense
beautiful light, and others give health
and strength. There Is the emerald,
brighter than a mirror; the jasper,
which preserves from poison; the gar
net. which casts out demons and de-
stroys serpents; the diamond, which
can only be affected by the blood OF
kids; the topaz, which gives its own
color to all it approaches; the coral,
which wards off the thunderbolt: the
hyacinth, of the color of the day, that
cures all diseases; the margarita,
formed Of dews; in a word. every pre-
cious stone that possesses miraculous
virtue" How these exquisite speci-
mems of natures handiwork came into
existence is a question difficult to an
swer. We know Of what they are COM
posed, but, II we except the pearl, we
know no .hinl Of the process by which
they arrived at perfection; this is a
problem which must be lett to future
generations to solve.
1t has been proved that the materials
of which precious stones are made are
of the commonest and most plentiful,
''and yet" says an old writer, eve think
hn nit
earth to their 'commixion. and so the
sun left part Of his light shining in
them The diamond, which Is so daz-
zingly bright and so pure. is in reality
nothing more or less than pure carbon;
the ruby and the sapphire are com
posed almost entirely Of clay; the emer-
aid of sand OF silica, while the pearl is
| formed of carbonate of lime This would
strike us as most wonderful If we did
not remember that out Of the dust OF
the ground God made man. whose
! beauty and value are far above the dia-
! mond and ruby. A French writer says:
! 1t would seem as though the mighty
! creative and organizing power had
chosen to manifest its omnipotence by
producing its most valuable substances
| from the most ordinary elements"
Think of the combination of circum-
stances required in the formation OF
these beautiful crystals to give them
the necessary transparency brilliancy
luster and exact amount OF coloring
matter.for the desired tint, to say moth
ing of their freedom from flaws and de-
fects. Another circumstance of great
interest about precious stones is that
they have doubles so like themselves
that it Is difficult for the unframed eye
to detect the difference, and yet the one
is of great value, while the other has
little or none in comparison.

KATE FIELD.

BY the death OF Kate Field Hawaii
loses a friend and the United States
one of its most able and brilliant news
paper writer's Kate Field was one OF
the few women of the United States
who attained worldwide reputation
by constant struggle, without the as
sistance of position given by wealth.
Her influential friends were obtained
in consequence of the general recog-
milton Of her ability, and she gained
her success and reputation in the face
of odds that would have crushed less
determined, a less practical and less
worker, and having once committed
herself to a task, she left no stone un-
turned until she had mastered the stu
alton in all it's details. This same ag-
gressive and conscientious spirit which
did so much toward making the woman
famous finally led her to attempt a task
far beyond her physical strength, and
brought her life to a close at a time

doing some of the most intensely inter
esting work of her career. She was fol-
lowing strictly the instructions of her
employer when she received orders TO
go to the Hawaiian Islands and investi-
gate the situation. Following her
usual careful methods, she was going
from house to house, so to speak, from
district TO district and island to island. |
studying the people, or in newspaper |
parlance doing a nation with a free
hand, her orders being to tell the story |
was to the Chicago Times-Herald what
Col. COckerill in Egypt was to the New
York Herald-a representative in whose
Judgment the people of the United
States had confidence, and whose views
upon public affairs would be received
with more than passing attention.
Miss Fields career as a lecturer, in
politics and as newspaper writer
proved her ability as clear thinker, a
matter-of-fact woman,
with wonderfully practical mind of
Ter own. Once having, formed her opin-
on, nothing could swerve her from her
original purpose, and fortunately she
was never quick to form or express
opinions. 1t is this popularity in her
nature which leads us to believe that
he true Kate Field letters from Ha-
vail have never been written. She told
very side of the story as it came to her,
nd left her readers to draw their own
onclusions. Thus she was preparing
he way to bring her own logical con-
lusiOns before the public in the more I
manner at a later day.
With all her varied experience in con-
ection with the stage, the lecture plat
orm, the political campaign and the
ewspaper office, Miss Field lost none
f the finer womanly instincts. She was I
but not extensively so. She 1

lake circumstances fit her pleasure,

QUESTIONS or GRIEVANCE.

Exactly what Mr. Vivas wants it is
difficult to find out He says that the
Portuguese asked for the same priyi-
Ieges that are granted other foreigners
and the natives" What privileges
..other foreigners and the natives" nave
which the Portuguese have not we fail
to see. Then he says that the thrift
ness of the Portuguese saves them from
starvation" This is a very self-evident
proposition. and is as true of the New
Highlander as of the Portuguese. How
ever, Mr.. Vivas loudly clamors for his
rights" and does his best to make his
people discontinued with their lot
AS far as can be learned, the Portu-
guese are not prevented from working,
they are not prevented from taking up
land. and as a fact most of them do so
and raise large families of healthy chill
dren. That Mr. Vivas is not getting the
full reward for his talents may be true,
however. Exactly what position he
should fill in the body polite it is dif-
ficuIt to decide Mr.. Dole is really an
able President, and it would seem hard
to remove him from his position 10
make room for Mr. Vivas. Still, if the
volubIe Portuguese gentleman only
keeps on agitating, there is no telling
what may have to be done.
Perhaps this is what Mr.. Vivas
means by his rights" Let us get an
nexed and Mr. Vivas will have a
right to be a Justice of the Suprem5
Court OF the United States-if he can
get appointed.
II is to be presumed that the gist Of
the Portuguese grievances is contained
in the resolutions, but again we come
upon vague, intangible complaints
which amount to nothing.
First, they want measures adopted to
protect the interests OF the mercantile
and laborfng classes, but they fail TO
point out what these measures are.
Second. they think that the measures
of the Minister of Finance are sound.
So do We And the measures OF the
Minister of Finance will be carried in
time. We fail to see any cause of COM
plant in this The only thing that is
a real cause of grievance seems to be
certain Objectionable features in the
registration law" In view of the fact
that a very large percentage of the
older Portuguese cannot write, again it
is difficult to see how the feature is OBJ
iectionable.
The role of the agitator is not hap
Dy one, and this the present agitator
will find out as time goes on. With
real grievance much might be done,
1ut with such a set of sham grievances
Is were put forward on Monday night
nottingham be done. Vague vaporings '
about rights butter no parsnips, as
ne old saying goes.

THE SECRETARY
DISC P|OW.
NEWMAN. ILL, NOV. 2, 1895.


DEERE & COMPANY, MOLINE, ILL.
DEAR SIRS: Our exhibition OF the
New Disc Pillow in broom corn at this
place today was not only success but
a complete surprise to all the farmers
present, and was an agreeable surprise
to myself in that sort of work. talked
with every farmer at the exhibition,
and the majority of them said the pillow
was worth all it cost just to glow
broom corn. Just think how absurd it
would be to try to pillow in heavy broom
corn without bHeaking or raking and
burning the stalks, but the Disc Pillow
will do 1t, and do it well. From what I
have seen of this pillow think it is the
only plow, for broom corn, at least.
Yours truly,
JAMES MOORE.
