Charges have been preferred against
two of the subordinate officials of the
land office, involving alleged irregulari-

time in which to make answer.
The relations between Secretary
Hitchcock and Commissioner Hermann
have been strained for long time.
These officials are Harry King, chief,
and Fred F.. Metzgar, assistant chief of
the draughtsman's division of the gov
eminent land Office. The former is
charged with neglect of duty and the
latter with mismanagenent and unsat-

OVER U. P. TO THE COAST.
The Milwaukee Gets This Long De
sired Route.

sired Route.
New York, Dec. 31.-Several weeks
ago Wall street was treated to a de-
tailed account of how contract be-
TWEEN the Union Pacific and the Mill
waukee roads had fallen thru, and as
a natural consequence how the Mil
waukee was perfecting plans to build
to the coast. Cause assigned for this
radical action was alleged the demand
of Union Pacific that the Milwaukee
should furnish locomotives to take the
place of those crippled by striking ma
chinists of the Union Pacific. This, SO
1t was said, the Milwaukee refused to
do, and the contract by which it was
to run trains thru to the coast over the
Union Pacific was Cancelled.
This is considered rather amusing
now, in view of the formal announce
ment by the Milwaukee that it will In
augurate thru service to the coast JAM
4. This is another evidence that the
contract is in full force and effective,
and also shows that the alleged row
between the two systems was purely
imaginary. The contract between the
companies f. a hard and fast one, and
the moment it goes into effect it will be
very hard to break. The Milwaukee
gains substantially by 1t, securing what
1t has SO long desired-a direct route
to the coast.
The Union Pacific certainly finds 1t
to its advantage and unless the Chicago
& Northwestern finds 1t Objectionable
in that it curtails its privileges 1t would
seem as tho everybody was satisfied.
No complaint has been heard from
the Northwestern and none is likely to
be heard. Now that Its contract with
the Union Pacific Is practically In eff
feet 1t remains to be seen what the
Milwaukee will do toward issuing new
stock.

QUEER ADVENTURE OF PASTOR.
Preached Two Funerals, Twenty Years
Apart, Over Body of Same Man.

Sterling, H., Dec. 3O.--Rev. T. e.
Phillips OF PENNSYLVANIA, who is on a
visit here to his brother, r. S. Phillips,
of this city, is the hero of strange ad-
venture. He preached two funeral SER
mons. at an interval Of twenty years,
over the body Of the same man.
On the first occasion Mr.. Phillips
had just finished his remarks at the
graveside when the supposed corpse
knocked on the coffin lid and asked to
be released from his prison. Twenty
years later Mr.. Phillips again stool
by the grave of the same man. This
time he preached second funeral
sermon. The corpse did not knock OIL
the coffin lid, the coffin remained un-
opened. The man stayed dead.
A number of persons who heard the
first sermon also heard the last. 1t
was remarkable coincidence.

NEW STYLE IN DIAMONDS.
They Are Now Cut So As to Increase Their
BrilIiancy Fully 100 Per Cent.


A new method of cutting diamonds so as
to wonderfully increase their brilliancy
and apparent size has been discovered by
a New York expert, after seven years of
experimenting. 1t makes 1t possible to in
crease their brilliancy, size for size, fully
100 per cent.
To understand the form of the beauty of
the new cutting it is necessary to be fami-
liar with the general form of previous
cuttings. The names of the faces of a
diamond are more or less familiar. The
fiat top surface of the old ordinary bril-
liant is called the table. The outer edge
of the stone. or its largest diameter, is
called the girdle, and the small surface
at the bottom is called the culex. The
cutting has ffty-six facets or cuttings,
and, including the table and culex, fifty
eight facets.
The twentieth century cutting gives
the diamond eighty facets, and does away
with both the table on top and the culex
at the bottom. Both the upper and lower
surfaces come to a point, leaving no fiat
surface on any part of the stone.
Anyone who looks at an old style dia-
mond must notice that the fiat surface on
TOD (the table, of the stone is compare
lively lusterless and dull. To get the BEST
effect from such a stone one must turn
it until the light strikes it at the proper
angle. The twentieth century cutting
does away with this surface, or dull spot.
In other words, the old style absorbs
the light through the table and gives
it off from its facets at the side. The new
cutting absorbs the light from the entire
upper surface and gives off with marvel
Gus brilliancy from every one of its eigh-
ty shining facets. No matter at what
angle the light strikes the new stone,
or from what point it is viewed 1t retains
the same dazzling brilliancy.
This marvellous brilliancy is due to the
fact that each of the eighty facets has
been cut at exactly the proper angle
in relation to every other facet. II the
angle of a single facet was not mathema-
tically correct, according to the laws OF
optics, the brilliancy would be impaired
or lost. 1t will now be possible, perhaps,
for the laymen in such matters to appre-
ciate the wonderful complexity of dia-
nond cutting.
The new diamonds can only be cut by
men especially trained to the work, an
adds largely to their expense. Then,
again, the new cutting exaggerates the
slightest defect of color, so that only
perfect gems are fit to be cut in this way.
1t is estimated that eventually the new
cutting will only increase the cost of dia-
monds about 10 per cent. To compensate
for this the stones will gain from rs to
100 per cent. in brilliancy and will APP
pear at least one-third larger.
