AMERICAS. JEWEL MADNESS

Surpasses Anything Ever BE-
I 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 s
jewel madness as shown by the condi-
tions of to-day, when more than 300
New FORK tablishmen ents are engaged
solely in the Importation of precious
stones, when agents Of American deal
ers are searching Europe for the white
gem and Ehopelessly. 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 1t is she that
has caused the United States to be-
come the greatest diamond marketfin
the world, says Ainslee's. Magazine.
For her we have imported in asingle
year SIC, ,oOoO oOoo worth of precious
stones; for her, at one period, we;
snugsled them in at the rate of ST.
900, 900 a year; her we annually
buy something like S12. 600 worth
Of diamonds, and thus, for her sake,
heart1essly leave of the world OUT
put of diamonds only some $4,000, 900
worth to satisfy the vanity Of all the
rest of the women on earth. For her,
adornment3 we annually cause to be
brought to this country diamonds
weighing inH 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 tdiamondmine.

Salem, Feb. 11.-Another featur
less ballot for senator was by
the Legislature today. The Mul
tnomah members showed a, little
unanimity in choosing a recipient
for their complimentary votes,
giving IS to M. G.. George, The
result on ballot was as follows: Fnl-
ton, 80; Geer, Is: Wood, 70; Geo.
rge, IS; scattering 3; absent and
paired, s. total 90. -.----f
Huntley who was one of Fultons
strong supporters, was paired with
Hayden. Hume Of Coos and Cur.
ry, who seems to enjoy making a
mystery of his real choice for Sen
ator, continues to cast his solitary
vote for Malarkey Of Multnomah
somewhat to the discontinue OF
that unwilling candidate. y
Bourne is making strong effor Is
to break the Fulton faction, but as
yet there is no evidence of success.
The vital question is. still, can Full
ton hold his present following until
next week? The indications are
that he will, and in that event his
election is extremely possible.

Salem, Feb. 1.-THE days OF

Erom all that can BE learned from
those who are interested in the
schools il seems to be- certain that
the joint ways and means commit:
tee will refuse to recon mend any
appropriation for that Institution,
and thiswill meauan abandonment
Of the school by the state. The
action of the committee will be in
accordance with a popular demand
and the recommendation made by
Governor Cham ber1ain in his mes
sage. The total appropriations for
normal schools will be about $780,
336 against $4,000 two years
ago. or a reduction of nearly $50,
900.
Monmouth Normal will be given
SIS, 900 for maintenance and $1,000
for improvements, this mainten-
ance appropriation being the same
as two years ago, but the improve.
ment allowance is $1,000 greater.
Ashland Normal will be given
s$I8, $50 for maintenance. which is
an increase of $6336. The school
will get $4,000 for improvements
whileit had nothing for this pur-
poseJWo years ago. ~s
Weston will get $4,000 for
maintenance, which .issa reduction
of$4ooo as compared with two
years ago: This school will also
get 10000 for the furnishing of the
new building, construction of walks

of the Weston, Normal was cut
