The master Of the barque "Gustavo
Adolfo" recently had a remarkable
meeting with a water spout in mid
Atlantic. Masses Of water we're
raised higher and higher one day from
a seething ring of water, say, 6 or Z
feet across, and whirled around. It
looked like the open neck Of a bal
loon, having a diameter Of from II to
Is feet. During this time the spout
whirled more and more rapidly to the
southeast at the rate Of four miles an
hour, the size Of the spout gaining all
the time, the foot all foam and the
monster kissing. The water that had
been listed was more than could be
raised to the cloud in the cylinder
spout, so that patches of water swung
out, lost their acquired speed and fell
into the sea. The water spout was 80
feet from the Gustavo Adolfo, which
headed southeast parallel with it, but
could not pass It. At three cable
lengths to the southeast the spout had
attained three times its original size.
The speed of the water spout was ir-
regular and sometimes 1t went back
wards. Three more water spouts came
out of the same cloud. Their bases
covered a line Of from one and a half
to two miles. A little rain fell out Of
the real of the cloud, with it's hanging
layer.

The First Woman Who Ever Sat for

The death last Tuesday morning at
Hastings-on-the-Hudson Of Miss Anna
Catherine Draper, the first woman who
ever sat for her photograph" brings
forcibly to mind me fact that the art
Of photography has been developed
from Daguerre's crude invention to it's
present perfection within the compass
Of a single lifetime.
In 1889, when Daguerre's discovery
was first announced, the famous scien-
fist, DR.. John w. Draper, then a mem
Der of the faculty of the University of
New York, was pursuing his researches
in the chemical phenomena of light,
whose results are. among his most val
liable contributions to science. Da-
queries announcement interested DR..
Draper greatly, and he at once made it
the subject of special study. He was
the first person in the world to utilize
Daguerre'a process in the ~portraiture
Of human beings. Ms sister wac the

Songs and Their SINGERS
Fortunate People That Have LeAped 20
Fame In o Single Bound

The actors who have made their
fame on one play, the authors whose
reputation rests upon one book. or the
orators whose celebrity is connected
with one speech, are not nearly so nu-
merous as the singers who have be-
come known through n song. The
recent death Of The Great McDer-
mott" who will go down to posterity
as the singer of by lingo. We VIII, "
the song which made the term "jingo-
ISM" a familiar term in the English
language, recalls the story Of many Of
these one-achieved individuals.
A song will sometimes be sung by a
music hall singer which viii seem to
have In it no more Of the elements Of
popularity than any other song. Yet
suddenly it will become all the rage,
and will be hummed and whistled by
thousands of people all e the
try who never heard the name of the
singer, and perhaps ever put their
foot in the music hall.
Il was Miss Lottie Collins who first
sang "Ta-ra-boom-de-ay' in a London
music hall. Few thought it was a song
out Of the ordinary, even those who
heard it. yet within a few days all
London was humming it, and It was

not long before it had become as ia
maliar as God Save the Queen"
II is said that there are at least a
dozen singers of comic songs who are
known in the profession as ~"one-song
men," For instance, Charles Coborn,
the mar who sang "The Man That
Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo" made
more money out of other songs, but
for one person who knows one Of his
other songs probably a hundred knew
this one.
Other familiar instances Of the one
song success are Anna Held's Won't
You Come and Play With Me?" and
Ernest Hogan's who Said Chicken
in This Crowd?" Both Of these have
sung many another song, but none Of
the others has had such extreme pop
ularity, The authors of Little Annie
Rooney" After the Ball Is Over" and
other equally well-known songs are
almost unknown. yet in many cases
their u song carried them to temper
airy fame.

ten to twenty fold the price Of dia-
monds. The best come from Ceylon,
India and China.
The siamese rubies are very dark
red. the spinel IS less richly colored.
The largest ruby known Is one Of the
crown jewels OF Russia. The shah Of
Persia has a ruby Of 175 carats. GUS

the size Of a small egg and Of perfect
water, which was presented to the
czarina Of Russia In 1877. 1871 France
had in It's crown Jewels eighty-one
oriental r~ubies
Gems of small inarinsic value are
just now commanding prices higher
than they would BE valued at by ex-
perts, which is-always the case with
stones which become fashionable. and
It is a safe rule that those who buy
stones Of this class should exercise the
same care they would OF should in pur-
chasing diamonds. The demand has
called out a large number Of second
and third class fubiesa from their hid
Ing places, and in new mountings they
are m%asquerading as jewels Of great
price.
The ruby is skflfully initiated, says
the New York Times, and not a few
are worn which are only Of the grade
Of paste diamonds without a suspicion
on the part Of their owners that they
are not what they are assumed to be.
No bargains in desirable rubies are to
be had in the markets of Europe or
America. Those worth buying for in
vestment are snapped up on sight by
the gem sharps, and the person who
purchases from them will in every in
stance pay their value.

Frequently. after taking these things

maybe It is because that everybody
