AMERICAS JEWEL MADNESS.
Prevailing Rage for Precious stones
surpasses Anything Ever Be-
fore seen In This Country.

The world has never seen, and in no
other part of the world is there now
to be seen, anything like Americas
Jewel madness as shown by the condi-
tions of to-day, when more than 300
New York establishments are engaged
solely in the importation of precious
stones, when agents of American deal
ers are searching Europe for the white
gem and hopelessly endeavoring to
supply American appeals for rubies
and emeralds, and when 5000 men in
South Africa are toiling to obtain dia-
monds, more than half Of which are
to add to the beauty and happiness of
the American woman. It is she that
has caused the United States to be-
come the greatest diamond market in
the world, says Ainslee's Magazine.
For her we have imported in single
year $20,000,000 worth of precious
stones: for her, at one period, we
smuggled them in at the rate of ST.
O0o,0 ,000 year; for her we annually
buy something like $12,00o,0O0 worth
of diamonds, and thus, for her sake,
heartlessIy leave of the worlds out
put of diamonds only some $S,00o,000
worth to satisfy the vanity of all the
rest of the women on earth. For her
adornment we annually cause to be
brought to this country diamonds
weighing in the aggregate 1900
pounds. a weight three times that of
the total output of the famous Kim
berley field, and practically the equal
Of that Of the whole Of South Africa,
the worlds greatest diamond mine.

DORMANT MONEY.
Many Thousands of Dollars Awaiting
Lawful Ownership in the
English Courts


Lawful Ownership in the
English Courts.
A great deal of money becomes dor
mant through the carelessness or for
getfnlness Of the owners. When Mr.
Goschen's conversion and redemption
scheme of 1887 came into operation
the Bank of England notified $4,000
holders of consols that their per
cents were no longer per cents. No
fewer than 1880 letters failed to
reach the stockholders to whom they
were addressed; the people were
dead, and their relatives were un-
known, says Chambers Journal One
person who could not be found held
consols amounting to upward Of
g1S7, ,593; and over 40 possessed 10,-
600 each; and this money awaits law
full ownership. A very singular case
of stockholders forgetfulness led
to suit in chancery some years ago.
A lady who had attained the venerable
age of 9s died at Marseilles For years
she had practically lived on money
borrowed from her relatives under the
| impression that she possessed nc
means of her own. Only after she
had died it transpired that sum OF
| e $4,000 was standing in her name in
the funds, and also 100000 of accumu-
lated dividends.

PARADISE OF BLOOMERS.
Self Supporting Cincinnati Girls
Live at Unique Camp.

"Say just what you think. 1t won't
hurt"
This sign and many more Of like i'm
port greet the eye of any one ap-
preaching Camp Glenbeg, near Cincin-
natl.
Camp Glenbeg, according to the Phil
adelphia Press, is situated in the
woods about a mile from the end of
the Westwood car line and is inhabit-
ed solely by girls all dressed in bloom
ers. No man is allowed within its sa-
cred precincts. One of the most impor-
tant regulations imposes fine of o
cents for wearing a collar, belt or
skirt. The young women live at the
Home For Self Supporting Women, in
Wesley avenue, and the homes super
intendent, Miss Florence Morrow, is in
charge Of the camp.
Usually there are from fifteen to
twenty young women in the camp. The
girls pass their time in playing GRO
quet, ring toss, swings and other camp
pastimes. They say they are delighted
with bloomers-as a camping dress.

HOW TO SAVE CHINA.
DIR. Enaga Says Her Salvation Is
to Come Through Japan.

DR.. J. 7. Enaga gave the third lee
ture the other day at Chautauqua, N.
Y, on the far east, discussing the
problem of China, all through the lee
ture comparing China and Japan
with all odds in favor of the latter.
His view was that China will never
be regenerated from within, says the
Philadelphia Press. She is satisfied
with her condition, and those in au-
thority do not want a change. The
common people are devoid of patriot
ism and love of political liberty. The
missionaries make blunders.
81 say in all sincerity" he went on,
''the little good the missionaries do in
China is not worth the money, time
and lives spent in trying to Christian
lie the nation. Westerners can never
understand the Chinese. 1t is the mis-
sion of Japan to mediate between
China and the western powers. Only
through Japan can China be reached.
It is the mission of the United States
to aid Japan in her efforts.
1.-THE key to the problem of China is
this: If England, the United States and
Japan stand together in this question,
China will stand; if they are divided,
China will fall"

Bryan defined as the harmonious de-
velopment of the human race morally,
mentally and physically, he cited an
essential to the continued progress of
the nation. He regarded the cultiva-
tion of the moral element as a para
mount issue, and declared that history
supported his contention that moral
decay had preceded the ruin of every
nation that had fallen; "a nation, y said
Mr.. Bryan, lis strong only in proper
tion to its moral excellence"
He declared that the present admin
tration had developed a tendency to
amend Gods holy ordinances. "Thou
shalt not steal" "Thou shalt not
kill, "Thou shalt not covet," etc., by
adding an apologize clause: "Save
when done on very large scale"
Reference was made to the Philip
pine question and the conduct of the
American soldiers in suppressing the
insurrection. He denounced impe-
rialism" at great length.
He further denounced the pluto
crazy of wealth add tariff and injunc-
tions, and said that the only possibili.
ty of suppressing anarchy rested in
the education of the people to love
their government.
Mr.. Bryan stated with marked en-
phasis that If he had the power every
article manufactured by trusts would
be placed upon "the free list," al
though he sincerely doubted if this
strenuous and radical measure would
wholly Illustrate the trusts.

Hand Kissing Revived.

A number Uf tarisian society women
have made up their minds to revive the
custom of hand kissing and have de-
creed that gentlemen visitors to their
drawing rooms shall kiss the ladys
hand. The courtly old custom of hand
kissing needs to be practiced with dis
erection if offense is to be avoided, for
there are many degrees of intimacy
implied in the way it is done, says

DRAGGED INTO MIRE OF DOLLARS AND Gents
Mr. Bryan Discusses the Problem of Government Before Audi
of Four Thousand People Candidate President

In the presence of 1900 people at
Mountain Lake PARK, Md, Mr.. Bryan
discussed the problems of government
one day last week.
Mr.. Bryan prefaced his address,
which was of two hours duration, with
denial that he will again seek to be-
cone the national standard bearer of
the democratic party, his denial being
contained in the following phrases:
II hope you will give me credit for
possessing higher ambition than to
be satisfied with the Office of president
of the United States. l am too demo-
cratic to covet an ambition that only a
few in one generation can share.
prefer the honor of being private
citizen, an honor greater than that of
king"
Throughout his discussion of the mo-
meDtus problems now engaging the at
tenti0n of the two great political par
ties Mr.. Bryan occasionally tapped a
vein of quiet humor that generated
smiles GU many countenances.
"You will recall" he said, ''that the
republicans have had two telling
chances at me, and on this occasion l
would seek one at them. In dealing
with the theme of the problems of
government l shall endeavor to inject
enough religion to suit a republican
and enough politics to curry favor with
a democrat.
Mr.. Bryan stated that primarily it
was his purpose to deal with the moral
phase of the subject. He declared
that the partisan discussion of tariff,
free silver, the trusts and imperialism

nod the full aud unconditional par
sor Of their father, T. H. Clark, who
nos serving a sentence in the peniten-
.;orv for lsrcencv after trust. The
nordon was granted by Governor
Gambler last Thursday.
Governor Gambler received the let
Ear several week ago, and the chief
executive was greatly touched by the
nitiful appeal of the little children
who addressed him as Dear Mr.. Gov
o.ror and told how they were living
with their grandfather in Athens since
tho conviction of their parent, that
choir grandfather was paralyzed, that
thew wanted to go to school and had
No clothes to wear, and.if they could
not their father back they would be
able 10 be in school and play with the
other children
The governor did not wait a minute
after reading the letter, but hurried to
the office of the prison commission
wbare he asked for the record of
Clark As the letter was written from
Clark county the chief executive was
under the impression that the man
was convicted in that county. Inves-
tioation revealed the fact. 'however.
that the man was sent from Fulton
county for two years, and the govern
or made further inquiry. He found
that Clark had been agent for a sew
ing machine company, working on
commission, and when he settled with
the firm he was few dollars short,
and had no money to make good his
shortage.
A warrant was sworn out for his ar
rest. and when tried he admitted that
he had used the money but not with
the intention to defraud. He was
found guilty and sentenced to two
years. His wife and three little chill
dren we're left almost destitute in At
lsnta, and few weeks later his wife
died, leaving the children all alone.
Their grandfather, who lived in
Athens, came for them, however, and
since the death of their mother they
have lived with him. But the little
ones were not satisfied. They had
been told that the governor could re-
lease their father from the changing
if he would, and the Oldest child sat
down and wrote the governor a long
letter detailing in childish way all
the circumstances. And the result
was the man will be pardoned.
