RHINEsToNEs MORE COSTLY.

Advance of Twenty Per Cent. Chief,
| Due to Advance in Diamonds Caused
by War;
| An interesting coincidence with the
advance in the prices of precious stones
which began shortly before the Beers
opened hostilities on the British is an
increase in the market value of imita-
ton gems.
In the last four months rllinestones,
as they are known to the public, and
"brillants," as they are spoken OF
among jewellers. have advanced nearly
twenty per cent 1t is not generally
known that all rhinestones, which in
clude imitation emeralds, rubiea and
diamonds, are mada and polished in
Switzerland, Bohemia or France They
are for the most part made by peasants
in spare hours that cannot be given to
their crops.
The art of polishing rhinestones has
attained to such perfection and the
stones themselves are so perfectly set
by the manufacturing jewelers. of this
country, that, in many cases, none but
experts can distinguish them from the
genuine article.
A member of a Wellknown firm of
manufacturing jewelers. said to-day
that the firm frequently receives orders
from wel!-known persons to furnish
limitations of the genuine ornaments
which they possess, but for fear of
thieves, do not care to carry about with

Very much was made of these mistakes

serious, But it is difficult to get Off.
GERS to realize that, though q man may
be rebel in his sympathies, it is foolish
TO drive MIN into open rebellion. On

ing the situation as very unsatisfactory.
The colonial Dutch know well that large
felnforcements are coming out daily,
and they also know much better than
we do the other side of the picture, the
difficulties under which the Boer forces
are laboring, the dissensions between

New York, Nov. IA dispatch to the
World from London says:
Sporting authorities here and even

made a big mistake in selecting the run
ming of Croker's The Seotchman II and
Lord Durham'S own horse Gerolstein at
Doncaster and Liverpool respectively as
examples of dishonest racing.
1t is the opinion of the best judges
that the difference between the extreme
hardness of the Doncaster course and
the very heavy going at Liverpool ac-
counts sufficiently for the reversal of
form shown by the two horses
The Daily Chronicles sporting CORES
pondent says:
Lord Durham's zeal in behalf of the
purity of the turf is very commendable.
But neither his nor his trainers judg-
ment, nor their collective knowledge of
racing can be very great IL the running
Of The ScOtchn1an II and Gerolstein is
to them fnexplicable."

the same line, adding. The idea that
The Scotchman II could have been
pulled at Doncaster seems ouashed by
the fact of his defeating the Gerolstein

Inaugural balls seem to have passed
