Color of Gems.

That the color of precious stones is
liable to change with time has been
demonstrated by an experiment. Two
strongly and equally colored rubies
were chosen, n of which was placed
in a light show-window, while the
other remained in the dark. On com
pairing the stones after two years, the
one which had been exposed to the
light was seen to have lost some of its
vivid color. In the case of garnet and
topaz, the former is said to become dim
and dull, while the latter gets lighter
in color under the influence OF pro
longed exposure to light.

Hot Water DESTROYS Insects,

Words That Have Changed Their Mean.

ing.
A shoemaker sometimes calls himself
a cordwainer. The Moors of Cordoya,
like their brethren in Morocco, were
famous for leather, which was called
Cordovan. Hence C%ordovanner. Some
words lose their meaning. A villain
is not a bad character, but simply a
man of low rank. A knave in old
English is merely a fellow. In fact it
Is the German knabe, a boy. A ruff
fan probably dates from the days when
Moorish pirates were a terror to mar
liners. The pirates of the Riff coast
of Barbary are still called Rihians. A
beefeater is simply a buffetter, or one
who attends the buffet or sideboard.
Punch and Judy is a corruption of
Pontius PLATE, governor of Judea, the
play being a very old one. A footman
was really a footman, when he ran with
a pole in his hand before the old lum-
bering coach, to be ready to assist
when 1t upset in the almost impossible
roads. One might go on forever on
such a subject. We are daily speak

BACK TO THE CITY.

A laboring man died, and his wife
and six little children came to sore
distress. A good woman found them,
and another took them all to her
roomy house ON her beautiful farm.
| After a fortnight they disappeared,
without . word of farewell or explain
alton.
For some weeks their first friend
searched for them in vain. At length
she found them, in the last place where
she had thought of looking, the dark,
unwholesome cellar where they had
been before. Weren't they good to
you in the country" she asked.
Eyes, just like angels"
Didn't the children have enough to
| eat?"
Eyes, they liked it very much. You
meant we'll, l know" the add
| ed, desperately. You meant me kind
ly, and I'm grateful for it. But just
the same I have come back to the city,
and l am going to stay, because l al
ways did like peoples better than
stumps!"
We commend this new and true an
ecdote to all people who have been
tempted to believe that the problems
Of the city could be solved by awhole-
sale shipment of the poor to the
try.
Some of the children can be saved to
a worthier life by such a transfer.
Some of the more intelligent and
adaptable of the mature will welcome
any change Of surroundings hat en-
sures a new start" But there will re-
nail the many to whom excitement is
as the breath of life, and who would
choose to go hungry in a crowd rather
than to dine in comfortable quiet.
These people must be met upon their
W ground. Decent tenements, clean
er streets, the restriction of the saloon,
the curbing of the INSCRIPTIONS en-
ployer, and other like reforms must be
carried out, primarily in their inter-
est. Even though they reject the
greater benefits, they must be helped
to live as wisely as the conditions
they cherish will permit.
And it is not an unmixed evil that
the city is unable to evade RESPONSE
bility by sending them to the country.

FIRsr-cLAss PLACER MINING.
Rio Arribs County Coming to the Front


Rio Arribs County Coming to the Front In
Rich Placers.
A gentleman just from Rio Arriba
county says that placer mining In that
county Ia going TO take boom this
spring. The Rio Chams Mining com.
pany. which has some twelve or fourteen
claims on the Rio Chama river, Is now
building some three miles Of wagon road
from their claims to the main road "a
TERRA Amarillo, and as coon as com.
pleted active operations will commence
weather permitting. This company has
some very fine placer ground, averaging
seventy.6ve cents per cubic yard. shot
gold. There will be dredging plant Of
a capacity OF one hundred cubic yards
per hour, put In. The lumber for this
dredge, some 10000 feet, and for neces
sary buildings, will come from the mills
at TERRA Amarillo, as soon as the roads
are In shape for hauling. There is a
live, hustling lot OF men at the head OF
this company, and they have one Of the
best placer properties In the country. BY
June they expect to have their plant in
operation. The working OF this property
by the dredge system will reyOlutiOnize
placer mining In that part Of the country
and 1t Is thought that by another
spring there will be at least a half
dozen plants OF this kind In operation
on the Rio Chama. Thorough tests,
made by practical and reliable men,
show that there is enough rich placer
bed in the Rio Chams to keep many Of
these plants busy for years. Some miles
farther down the river. the Rio Arriba
Placer company Is also making prepara'
tions to begin active work on theiI
hydraulic plant. They have just com
pleted survey for bitches, etc., and they
expect 10 be In full operation sometime
In June. These two companies mean
business and will push ahead 10 rapid
completion their plants and II is con
fdently expected that the Rio Arribl
company will make a first-elass showing
