The National Lcngnc ripht.

The annual meeting OF the National
league is over. and what will come out
of it no one seems to know. One fac
tion claims to have elected a president
and back mp their argument with good,
sound parliamentary ruling, while the
other side laughs and declares the cleo
tion illegal. How IL will all como out
remains a mystery to even those who
attended the meeting. One thing seems
certain, the league must do something

can control the members so that n
repetition of last weeks farce can

Spalding believe they have such a per
son o to lead them out of the will
derness. Maybe they have. but until
the disruption among themselves
ceases the league can never hope to
again attain any place in the baseball
world. The owners Of one of the clubs
seem to be fighting among themselves
and it vas this that caused a deadlock
in the voting. The magnates fought
among themselves like a lot of old
women at q gossiping party, each do
ing his best to say the worst things he
could against the other. IL Is no Won

it is a surprise that there is any por-

Despite the legal complications exist

what 1t costs. James A.. Hart. presi-
dent OF the Chicago National league
club, Is more than satisfied with The
baseball outlook. and declares that the
National league undoubtedly will put
in a profitable and prosperous season
next year. Mr.. Hart bases this belief
on his confidence that a. G.. Spalding.
the new president Of tho National
league. will succeed In carrying out his
new policy to the very letter. Hart
also believes that Freedman will not be

hats lead in popularity with brides

RUBlEs AND DIAMONDS
TNS Former Are becoming More Raro

aud Cos; More Than Latter.
All the world loves a ruby-or
should; and all who know their fascin-
alton will welcome some facts coacern-
ing them which have been given cur
rency by a Paris technical journal. lie
Diamant, which are of timely interest,
in view OF the increasing popularity of
these gems and their recent material
advance in price.
There are three varieties-orientai
siamese and the spinel. The FIRST is
the most beautiful OF all colored gems.
They are becoming more and more
rare and, weight for weight, are valued
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
tavus Adolphus of Sweden had n Of
the size of a small egg and Of perfect
water. which was presented to the
czarina of Russia in 1871. 1881 France
had in its crown jewels eighty-one
oriental rubies.
Gems of small inarinsic value are
just now commanding prices higher
Than they would he valued at by ex-
perts. which is always the case with
tones which become fashionable. aud
IL Is a safe rule that those who buy
stones of this class should exercise the
same care they would or should in pur-
chasing diamonds. The demand has
called out a large number of second
and third class rubies from their hid
ing places. and in new mountings they
are masquerading as jewels of great
price.
The ruby is skillfully 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
IRE 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
yestment are snapped up on sight by
the gem sharps, and the person who
purchases from them will in every in
lance pay their value.

Moses and His Horns.

Did Moses have horns? Certainly
not, but if you have ever had the
pleasure Of examining copy of Mi
chael Angeles great. picture Of The
Lawgiver'' you have wondered why
the great painter surmounted the pa
triarchal face. gray beard and becom-
ing priestly gown with a pair of horns
much resembling those of twoyear-
old animal of the bovine tribe. The
reason is this: Jerome's Bible, the
Latin Vulgate, tells. that when Moses
came down from the mountain top his
face was "radian&s' (rayedl with the
great light shining from his pure soul.
In the Greek Septuagint the transla-
tion said it was ''cornua," meaning
radiant" Jerome used this later ver-
sion in making his Latin Vulgate and
translated 'cornua" as .cornuta," the
last meaning horned. Angelo made
his picture accordingly.

Soil Is a Living Organism.

Formerly the soil was regarded as
mineral matter, simply decayed rock
mixed with dead organic matter, says
an exchange. Now we know that the
soil is a living organism whose life
is as important as that of the animal
or the plant itself. IL the soil be killed,
it Is absolutely sterile. In other words.
If the life of organisms which make
soil fertile are destroyed the soil is
incapable Of producing crop. Plants,
as a rule. eat only mineral food, such
as phosphoric acid, potash and nitric
acid, but animals usually eat only or
ganic foods. such as fats. sugars and
protein waiter.
