Gems were used in embroidery and
hardly an article of dress upon which they
could be displayed was deficient In those
decorations. Coverings for the feet af-
forded conspicuous objects for such an
exhibition; and this accounts for so many
examples of Ornamented shoes among the
relics of the Middle Ages. Those of Char

Cardinal Wolsey. which are said to have
been worth thousands I'm gold and precious
stones, afford illustrations.
The Esterhazy gems have passed into
history" and I'LL many page with their
glittering iAustra tons. All the armor worn
by Prince Nicolas at the coronation OF
Francis II as King of Hungary was COW
cred with valuable gems; his sword and
sea bbard sparkled with brillants: a shoul-
derband and belt presented a galaxy OF
diamonds and pearls. while his numerous
orders enhanced the splendor of his
equipments. The uniform of the Prince as
a Hungarian general was ornamented with
5000 diamonds, besides very fine speci-
mems of rubies, topazes, emeralds and
other varieties of precious stones The
cap was encfrcled by band of pearls and
bore plume composed OF 5000 diamonds
of different colors. The celebrated Ester
hazy gems scattered over the world after
Prince Paul, the successor of Prince Nico-
las. had died bankrupt.
The King of Siam does not regard dia-
monds, rubies, emeralds and pearls too
costly for garnishing his horses and car
riages-a sentiment shared by his neigh
Dor, the King of Burmah, whose state car
riage, captured by the English in one of
their wars with this country, was orna-
mented with precious stones estimated 10
be worth $4,000.

A BIG UNDERTAKING.
The Cost and Difficulties That n Cup
Challenger Must Face.


Sir Thomas Lipton's statement that he
will await year before challenging again
for the Americas cup will give fair idea
of how serious a matter it is to engage in
a contest so serious. a challengers bill,
for boat, equipment, transportation. trials
and racing, is apt to be nearly half a mil
lion of dollars. Expense ON scale like
that is not to be encountered lightly. But
stili more important is the great prize it.
self, and the prestige of victory in winning
it. Nothing hasty or slipshod is TO be toll
Grated for a moment in setting out in
quest of it,
A boat to win the Americas cup must
be better, not only than the Shamrock,
but than the Columbia. for 1t is simply
dollars to doughnuts that Herreshoff, call
ed upon to build another defender, as he
undoubtedly would be, would build boat
10 beat Columbia,
The virtues and the vices of the Sham
rock, as she can be studied at home, and
of the Columbia, so far as casual glimpse
of her can be instructive, must be thought
over long and carefully before a new mod
el can be evolved that will give even its
creator any reasonable ground for hope of
success. Probably HerTeshoff, as soon as
the Columbia was launched, or perhaps
DeIOre, ndd maze a mOdel or imagined one
that would beat her, and he might beg n
tomorrow to construct yacht that would
beat her 10 a moral certainty. But i'm the
country of the defeated boat there is not
an equal ground of achievement and con-
fidence to work on, and more time Is neces-
sary before any one in England would
venture upon the costly experiment of an
other International race.
BY the time a British designer could set
tie in his mind the form of craft that
would justify another crossing of the
ocean, the year would probably be we'll
nigh out. and, since the Deed-of-gift re-
quires ten months notice to the New York
Yacht Club, it would be too late to chaI-
Ienge for 1900.
Sir Thomas Upton will go home to think
il all over at his leisure, and then in good
time, not next year and perhaps not even
the year after, we win hope to meet him
again off Sandy Hook with the same
hearty welcome for himself and his boat.

adjusted to a given pitch they will answer
to that and no other.
Hertz found when he was experimenting
with the electro magnetic vibrations TO
which his name has now been given by
other men that device which he invented
and which he called a "resonator' would
pick up waves of certain length and fire.
quency, but would let alone waves OF the
same general character which were longer
or shorter He could by employing dig
ferent resonators detect waves Of different
frequencies but no resonator would re-
spond to waves of the wrong frequency.
NJ. Turpain applies that principle. He
would arrange along a single wire a num-
Der of stations. Each would have its own
resonator, and the. resonators would be
carefully graduated to respond to different
wave lengths. just as If a dozen tuning
forks were adjusted to sound each for a
different semi-tone ia an octave IL the
Turpain's line were provided with SIM
pie mechanism for varying the frequency
OF the waves sent out, just as twisting
the peg of a violin string you'd alter the
pitch of the note emitted by the string
the operator could adapt his transmitter
to the resonator OF any station. Thus he
could cali up and communicate with any
one along the line without the knowledge
of any one else. NJ. Turpain exhibited at
the Boulogne Congress an instrument Of
his own which would do this. IL was cap
able of exciting Hertz waves Of eight dir
ferent lengths.
When one understands the method here
