Novel Manner.
When the elder Booth-that is, the
father of Edwin, Junius Brutus, and
John Wilkes-was in the height of his
popularity here, he was most unde-
pendable. Engaged to play in the old
Broad Street Theater in Richmond.
Va, he stopped at the Powhat-
tan hotel, then famous throughout the
south. The manager of the theater,
noting that Booths condition was not
what 1t should be, coaxed him to his
room, and then locked him. taking
away the key. Returning In the even
ing to release him, the manager found
the actor in worse condition than in
the morning, and, summoning the help.
asked how Booth had obtained the
liquor. One of the bell boys explain.
ed that, hearing the bell from that
room ringing, he went to the door.
and was told by Booth to bring long
stemmed pipe and quart bottle OF
brandy. When he returned with the
pipe and bottle, he was ordered to
insert the stem of the pipe in the
keyhole and pour the brandy into the
bowl until told to stop.

New Shade of GRAY.

Very few new colors have come out
mis- year, but there is one that has
new name, at all events. Ice gray It
is called, and the shade is really DIFF
ferent from any Of the multitudinous
grays which have been on the market.
Ice gray is not quite smoke color,
nor is 1t at all on the drab order, but
1t is an attempt at a pale, clear, trans.
parent looking gray. A blush CLINT or
simmer gives it the name.
New color effects in dress goods are
continually being invented, and every
year we see more beautiful shades
than those we have known before.
The simple pinks and blues and hard
grays of ten years ago would hardly
be acceptable now. Softer colors and
complex interminglings % shades are
sought by the smart women.
The new ice gray is a beautiful
winter tint, and is handsome when
made up with touches of green, or
simply combined with white finished
by a trimming of delicate frosty-look-
ing lace.

PRESSING Outfit.

The girl who goes to college or the
woman who travels will appreciate a
gift of pressing outfit. The essen
tials are tiny iron such as is used in
pressing the frills of babies caps. a
small bread-cutting board, and any
one of the numerous heating inyen-
tons which are made to fit over gas
jet. A square of fine sandpaper and a
stick of wax complete the outfit, which
may be packed in neat box. The
iron and the board are to be had at
the 10-cent stores. The convenience
of the outfit is very great. Rumpled
ribbons and wells, handkerchiefs,
stocks, laces and frills can be fresh
ened in ones own room. and certain
chiffons made to do duty over and over
again.

OUR SOIL RICH IN GEMS.
Where American Precious Stones
Have Been Found by Miners.

Have Been Found by Miners.
The report of the geological survey,
just compiled for 1901, shows that
during that year there were mined in
the United States precious stones to
the value of about 100000. When
talking about rare and beautiful gems
ones thoughts naturally revert to
South Africa or the orient or the
mountains of Asia or Europe. or per
haps to South America, but one is not
likely to think of our own land yield
ing them but the fact is, that no in
significant value in gems is taken
from the soil right here at home The
report of the geological survey shows
that during that year we mined in
the United States precious stones to
the value Of about 100000.
Diamonds represent only 500 Of
this amount. but the fact that they are
found at all gives encouragement to
the hope that paying fields of them
may some time be found. Last year
one diamond was found in Lee county
Georgia, where diamonds were not be
fore known to exist. New Mexico
furnished $4,000 in turquoises. ane
these have been placed on the market
Montana gave us 100000 in sapphires.
which come next. They come from
Fergus county. Granite county is now
being explored for fancy colored sap
phires, that give evidence of being
there in paying quantities. Fine and
extensive rhodolite garnet deposits are
found in Macon county, North Caro-
lima. Many dark green, blue and vel
low beryls, as well as amethysts and
emeralds, were found in that state.
There is hardly state Of the Union
in which there is not some trace of
precious stones and it appears not at
all unlikely that before many years
we may be competing with the old
world in furnishing gems.
