The law prescribes rate per hour for

Unless property owners, men of bust

TUESDAY. the primary law may prove
disappointment in one important respect
Instead of shaking off the grip of the
professional politician upon elections the
effect may be to the contrary.
The primary election will be conducted
at the same time as the first registra-
tion. and double duty will thus be put
upon the judges. There will be tedious
delays. and it is essential that the bust
ness men shall appear at the polls early.
There are candidates on both tickets
that can be depended upon, if NOM
mated. and elected, to serve the
people faithfully. and creditably.
but they are largely those who
have not personally desired office, but
have become candidates at the request
of their fellow citizens They have not
made campaigns, nor will they call upon
their friends to work for them at the
polls. The small fry officeseekers, whom
the primary law has allowed to become
candidates, are the ones who are huStllng
for votes and who will have workers at
the election booths
Those who have favored the primary
election law because it is calculated to
wipe out political bossism and ma chine
enough to rally to it's support when it

SERMON BY BISHOP KEANE
He breaches at the Cathedral In ST. Pau
on "Chrstianity VS.. Ma
terIalIsm."

Rt. Rev. J. J. Keane, Bishop of Chey-
enne, and former priest of the Church of
the Immaculate Conception, this city.
preached at the Cathedral st. Paul, yes
terday on the subject, "Christianity VS..
Materialism.'' Bishop Keane reviewed
briefly the conditions of the world at the
time Christianity made it's appearance;
the gross inm orality of the then religions
and the chaotic condition of politics. He
referred to Christianity as a religion so
simple that it was scandalous to the Jew
and folly to the Greek, but which, never
theless, had spread it's belief over the en-
tire civilized world The danger to Chris
tianity to-day the bishop declared to be
organized rationalism. He deplored also
the light regard in which marriage vows
are coming to be held.

HAND MADE RUBIES
Nothing Startling About the Dis
covery Of M. Verneuil, the
French Scientist.
The Process Is Already Well I'm
derstood at the University
of Minnesota.

If the roasting of rubies continues, there
will be rubies to burn. Every woman no
matter how limited her income, can own
bracelets, necklaces, tiaras. Of the gem
which 1.-The Confessions Of a Wife" has
given a great vogue. This is because M.
Verneui, French scientist, has brought
the manufacture of rubies to such stage
of perfection that the product cannot be
told from the stones dug from the earth
In fact, the Verneuil rubies are real rubies
made by scientific methods.
THE manufacture of rubies is nothing
new, and the method of M. Verneuil, by
means of the blowpipe, means, pre-
sumably, merely that he has found pre-
cisely the right temperature and coloring
NATTER" said Professor F. w. Sardeson
of the geological department of the uni
versity to-day. 1T Is we'll known to ex
perts that various kinds Of gems can be
colored in several ways. Take ruby Of
the right properties, for instance, but with
a poor color: by use of flame, roasting, or
blowpipe, whatever you choose to call it,
an absolutely perfect color can be given.
Europe is the place for this kind Of work.
In the little town of Candel, in Germany,
I have seen the men who were making
agates lying PROSTATE. as they held the
stone up to the wheel to get just the
right light. Every position, every notion
you might say, for the art of making the
stone, has been handed down for years
from father to son; it is work for which
man is born rather than which he &C.
quires. They guard the secrets of the
trade jealousy, and even now, though the
Americans are able to make them, We
send to Germany for our agates, for they
can be bought cheaper even with the duty,
and all because the. Europeans are so far
ahead of us in this art.
But there is an opportunity here for
some Yankee to build an American plant;
the materials are here, and the men, for
what Yankee can't do isn't worth learn
ing. If we'd set student to work here
in the laboratory, given the right ma
terial, there isn't a doubt but that he'd
soon be turning out rubies.
"Just how much the new process will
lower the price will depend on the future
taste in precious stones. If rubies con-
tinue popular, there probably won't be
any, great overlooking Of the market. I
don't think the popularity of the stone will
suffer because it Is possible to make it.
The ruby is rock, and whether it is
