Diamonds Require Gentle Treatment
to Continue sound and Brilliant.
From the I.nndnn Exnress


From the London Express.
The best of all jewel boxes are not
the satin-lined, velvet-colored ones in
which the jewelers. aIluripgly display
their wares, but air-tight cases simply
lined with wool. Even in such a re-
ceptacle diamonds should be wrapped
in silversmiths tissue paper to keep
them of exquisite brilliancy.
Diamonds, in spite of their hardness,
must be treated with great care.
Though they can hardly be scratched,
they, nevertheless. chip, and when
roughly used are easily loosened IN
their setting, and fall out at the most
unexpected moment. When they are
sent to be cleaned the expert first
tests the settings, and then dips the
ring or pin repeatedly into little eau
de cologne. A powerful magnifying
glass is used to detect any foreign
bodies" in the setting, and an ornament
that has an accumulation of dust,
grease or soap on its under side, a
blemish that is often noticeable In
rings, is dipped alternately in soapsuds
and eau de cologne, and very fine
soft camel-hair brush pointed like a
pencil Is employed to reach delicately
between the claws of the setting. When
the jewel is thoroughly clean 1t is
buried in a jar of fine sawdust to dry.
silver mounting has been carefully
rubbed with jewelers. rouge, dried, and
polished with tiny chamois-covered
pad.
When diamonds and turquoises are
set together the most exquisite care
is taken that alcohol only is utilized
with whiting to clean both the set
ting and the diamonds, and as little

near the blue stones. If a turquoise
has been carelessly treated, and is
turning green from the effects of wa
ter, the cleaner sets ii to soak in stale
beer, which treatment will frequently
restore the pure azure color. But old
turquoises that are nearly green have
a value all their own.
Pearls require a great deal of human
comDanionship, and that is why they
are so constantly worn by their own
ers. When they are sick" Ito use a
technical term) they are given sun
baths, and sometimes are sunk in the
sea in perforated caskets to be re-
stored to health and lustre. Pearls
held in a warm. dry hand and drawn
slowly backward and forward through
the half-closed member are benefited.
Some women have their pearls restrung
every season, and when the owner can
not arrange to wear a fine string of
these gems at least once a fortnight
the cleaner lays them in a cup Of warm
-four or lukewarm fresh milk to keep
their skins in good order. Experts
test real diamonds by touching them
with the tip of the tongue. Diamonds
are icy cold; paste is not. Real pearls
they can differentiate from false, IT
is said, by the touch of their finger
tips. for the skin OF the real pearl has
feeling peculiar to itself.

cate an early fall and winter and
poor chances for late cotton. The
bears regard with growing concern the
nght movement. Even Texas is now
sending forward less cotton than pre-
dicted, while the eastern belt receipts
are so light as to bring out reduced
crop estimates. Though confirmed
bears continue to maintain confidence
in a yield of 100000 bales. or more,
reductions have been made quite gem
orally of late in estimates by unbiased
operators. American and European
spinners have little reserve cotton in
hand, and must soon enter the various
spot markets of the South for supplies
This demand is expected, so say the
bulls, to advance those markets SIM
ilarly with last year. The shorts de-
clare receipts will soon be ample to
offset any increase in call from the
worlds spinners, and refuse to give
this phase of the situation special at
tention. 1t is interesting to note that

Modern Cont of Mail.
From the Baltimore American.


A coat of mail, formed by the inter-
weaving of thousands of small tenn
pered steelsrings, each of which passes
through six others. was the object of
much curiosity yesterday at the Cen
trial Police Station. The coat, which is
said to be absolutely bullet proof, was
exhibited TO the men of the district
by Capt. Schleigh. IL had formerly
belonged to a Chinese Highlander of
the Western Pacific slope, and was
brought to the station for exhibition
by Sheriff r. +. Bevan of Marysville,
Yuba county, California, who is at
tending the Foresters' Convention in
Baltimore.
The coat weighs about thlrty-eight
pounds. and is load that man Of

Outlook for Cotton.

Discussing the cotton situation, the
Commercial Advertiser of New York
says The influence which created
the bullish feeling abroad consisted of
very bad crop reports and frost ac-
counts from the South. Private tele-
grams stated that the recent very
heavy cold rains with cold nights
since had damaged the crop seriously
from Texas to the Atlantic coast.
Since Wednesday light frosts have oc-
Cured in the northern portions of the
western and central belt. and the
early afternoon forecast indicates
more frost in those districts again to-
night. This is unprecedented, and Is

generally inactive in this market dur

however fairly steady tone and some
small operations were executed in mis-

staples for the Far East was entirely
beyond the inquiry stage, shippers
having previously satisfied the more

being. The demand for the smaller
markets was poor.
Yarns were irregular, the broken

to shippers and Mariners.
The American bark James A.
Wright, Capt. English, is anchored off
Tybee, bound for this city. While she
was too far out for the observers at
Tybee to see well. it appeared yester-
day that the vessel was in trouble,
though this was presumed because of
her delay in entering. 1t was reported
she was apparently having trouble
with her anchors. which were weighed
shortly after her arrival. Capt. Eng
lish is an old visitor to Savannah, and
knows from the many trips he has
made to the city the ms and outs of
the bar. 1t is improbable that any
fault lies with him if the Wright is in
trouble.
The large number of sailors who

onstrates the. benefit of that institution
pretty thoroughly as an everlasting in
fluence among seamen. At the society
building they find a large, commodious
reading room, supplied with papers
from all quarters OF the globe, printed
in the language of the country of
about every seaman who visits this
place. These advantages interest the
sailors, and this, in addition to the
saf
the hands of Mr.. and Mrs. Iverson,
attracts them there as a social retreat.
Services are conducted regularly on
Sundays for the benefit of the seamen
in port.
The yacht Jessie, owned by Maj.
Wilkins of Waynesboro, has coaled at
Taggart's wharves preparatory for a
coasting cruise. 1t is the intention of
Maj. Wilkins and party to visit
Georgetown and cruise in the waters
thereabout. The Jessie is the first
yacht to coal for the fall season.
This is about the time for Northern
yachts to come South said a coal
man yesterday. 1T is likely there will
be may down this fall to cruise in
Florida waters. Last season was a
record breaker, and the outlook for
fully as many yachts this year is
promising.
The shipping yards at Jacksonville
are quite busy. At the Merrill Stevens
yards the maChinists and carpenters
are working like Trojans. The two
steel hull steamships which are being
constructed are we'll under way, and
the plates and frames are out ready
for erection. The boats are carefully
designed, and will make very hand
some vessels. One is the City of Fay
etteville, a stern wheel steamship, to
be used as a passenger boat on the
Cape Fear river North Carolina. Work
is now almost completed on a trim
little stern wheel steamship, the
Eloise. which will be shipped by rail
to the Palmetto Fiber Company at
Cedar Key. This boat is to be used
in the palmetto fiber trade exclusively.
The object is to send her up the creeks
and rivers to collect the palmetto
boots from which the fiber is OBJ
tanned. 1t is said the supply of pal
metto trees obtainable by means of
the railroads has been almost COM
pletely exhausted, and in order to
reach a new supply the Cedar Key
Company had the Eloise built. She is
40 feet in length, width 10 feet, and
212 feet deep.

PREACHERS AS HERDERS.

The following letter written by
Rev. Stovall, is taken from the
"The Firm Foundation, ," a church
paper published at Austin, Texas.
White Oaks: Since | last re-
ported our meetings here, we have
held protracted meetings at the
following places: Fresnal, Tula-
rosa, Nogal and Captain. None
were baptized at Fresnal, but two
erring sisters who had wandered
off into the Baptist church, return
ed. Some young people became
very much interested and said
they wanted to obey the gospel.
but thought it best to study the
Book while longer first. l found
only two Christians at Tularosa,
but there found an opportunity
of preaching to an erring brother,
who said he had not heard a gos-
pei sermon for fifteen years, and
the old story sounded so sweet to
him that he could not resist it,
and was glad to be again NUM-
bered with the people of God.
One lady confessed her Savior,
but after the brethren had made
faithful search, they reported
that water suitable for baptizing,
could not be found: but she, not
being willing to give up the good
work which she had begun, on
the same day, boarded the train
for Carrizozo and there took the
stage for White Oaks, landing
there about midnight. On the
following morning she went three
miles further, making in all a
distance of sixty miles, and was
buried in the water that was al
most as cold as ice itself. In the
month Of December we held a
meeting in Captain, where nc
other gospel preacher had cyci

preached, but we succeeded in
getting fifteen brothers and sisters
together with three or four COM
petent leaders, one of whom is a
school teacher of no little in
fluence. Others said they were
going to unite with this congre-
cation, but were prevented by the
smallpox. One young lady came a
distance of fifteen miles and was
buried in the water when there
was ice around the edges. Un-
believers thought this was cruel
but she suffered no i'll effects, not
withstanding she was III poor
health. We had no additions at
Nogal but have hopes that our
meeting there will result in much
good. Nogal is a very small
town but has two saloons. One
of the saloon men invited me to
his home and treated me very
] kindly in every way. The other
who has no family, paid my way
at the hotel and furnished me
conveyance to the depot. One
dear old brother attended this
meeting who had not heard a gos-
pei sermon for more than twenty
two years; but his life had been
so pure that no one could say but
just one thing against him, and
that was that he was so uncharit-
able that he claimed that there
was but just the one way. ! am
now at White Oaks and have
preached here every Sunday this
year except one when sickness
prevented. Our opposers here
have made great efforts to keep
us from getting a hearing, and
to great extent have succeeded.
