lions had been engaged in advance,
but The service was not such as he had
expected. At each meal MIR. Johnson
introduced the subject of death. So
persistent was he in discussing the
morbid theme that 1t had depress-

Cant you speak on anything else
but death?" asked the landlord in des.

Conversation is prompted by sur

HOW RUBiES ARE MADE.
Mixture Of Clay and Oxide of Chromium
Said to Produce Good Results.

SdIo TO produce COCO Results.
Artificial rubies are made by proc
ess Of the chemist Verneui by melt
ing mixture of clay and oxide of
chromium at an even temperature of
several thousand degrees, reports
Counsel Richard Guenther from Ger
many. The two substances are care
fully placed above each other in lay
ers, so as to prevent cracking in the
crystalliZed mass.
1t is stated that Verneuil finally sue
cccdod in producing an artificial ruby
weighing five pounds, which had
value of about $500. From this price
II may be judged that the product is
not first class, and probably just pays
the costs of manufacture. In order
to produce the exceedingly high tenn
perature which is Indispensable for
success, VGrnCuil uses blast of oXy-
hydrogen gas, which acts directly on
the mass from the top. The hardness
of the ruby is the result of quick cool
ing caused by sudden interruption of
the blast of oxyhydrogen. The artifi-
cial ruby is said to be very pure and
possessing all the physical
of natural rubies. 1t can
be cut, and takes a very fine polish.
In view of these assertions it seems
singular that artificial rubics have no
higher value. especially as the natural
article is so exceedingly high priced
at present.

 This was quite childish to Mir. Della blaine, but, for Kate's dear sake, he treated her scheme seriously. afa
 But tell me, my daar." said he, "how are you going to find your father, and in what way can you bring him back here with you?'
 ,She first thing to do" said Kate, 'Is to Hire ship, l know that my little for that As for bringing him Sack, that's for me to do. With my arms around his neck he cannot bs pirate captain And think of 1t, uncle! If my arms are not soou around his neck, 1t may be the hangInsns rope which will be there.'
 MT. Delarlaine was troubled far more than he had yet been. His sor- rowing niece believed that there was something which might be done for her father, but he, her practical uncle, did not believe that anything could be done. And, even if this were possible, he did not wish to do,it- If, by some unheard-of miracle, his niece should bs enabled to carry out her scheme, she could not go alone, and thoughts Of sailing upon the sea, and the dangers from pirates, storms, and wrecks. were very terrible to tho quiet merchant He could not encourage this 3night-born scheme of his niece. g3
 tBut there is one thing can do" cried Kate, land must do 1t this very day. must go up to the governors 8 house. and pray you. uncle, that you will go with me"
 It was not half an hour after that Kate and her uncle entered the grounds of the governors mansion.

he saw alone Tn room auJOlnIHg the public apartments. He had met her there two or three times before, and had been forced to admit that the young girls of Barbadoes must be pretty and piquant in an extraordinary degree.
 But now she was different. Her sor- row had given her dignity and had added to her beauty. She quickly told her tale, and he started upright in his chair as he heard it.
 DO you mean he exclaimed, that that pirate is your father? It amazes me! The similarity of names did not strike me; I never imagined any con- nection between you and the captain of that pirate ship
 Now Kate was weeping. The gov ernor did not attempt to console her. Her sorrow was natural, and it was her right.
 When she looked up again she spoke about what she had come to ask him for; the authority to bring back her father wherever she might find him, and to defend him from the attacks of all per sons, whoever they might be, until she
 
 him how she would seek for her father Dn every sea.
 The governor sat and pondered. The father of such girl should be saved from the terrible fate awaiting him. if the thing could possibly be done. And yet what difficult, almost hopeless thing 1t was to do. To find a pirate, a fierce and bloody pirate, and bring him back unharmed to his daughters arms and to reasonable restraint. 1 t..
 He spoke earnestly. What you pro- pose" he said, "you cannot do. Itwould DC impossible for you to find your father; md if you did, no matter who might be with you, and no matter how successful you might be with him, his crew would not let him go But there is one thing which might be done His majesty's war vessels report at different stations. might send a dispatch to his majesty's naval officers, ordering them not to harm your father, but to take him prisoner, lnd to bring him here to be dealt with" Kate sprang to her feet. r Az order!" she exclaimed ,:"an order b withhold the hand of the law from my father? An, sir, your goodness is great, this is far more than had dared 10 expect!'
 Il beg you to be seated" said the gov srnor. "and let me assure you, that in offering to send this order, do not in the least expect you to take it.''
 From my heart I thank you, sir,' cried Kate, give me the orders and will take .hem, or I will"
 Nay, nay" said the governor, such offices are not for you, but will give the matter my present attention. Rely on me. my dear young lady, my order shall go by the very earliest opportunity. Kate rose and thanked him warmly. SThis is much to do, your excellency, for one poor girl. she said.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-03-31

Tt is Dut iTrIle to oo,. sa1d the gov ernor, land that girl be yourself With that he rose, offered Kate his arm, and conducted her to her uncle. When MT. Delaplaine was made ac- quainted with the result of the inter- view, both his gratitude and surprise were great. He comprehended far bet ter than Kate could the extent of the favor which the governor had offered to bestow. It was, indeed, extraordinary to commute what was really a sentence of death against notorious and dan- gerous pirate for the. sake of beauti- full and pleading woman. An ambitious idea shot through the merchants brain. The governor was a widower; he had met Kate before. Was there any other lady on the island better fitted to pre- side over the gubernatorial householdo But although man of high position could not wed the daughter of pirate, l pirate, evidently of unsound mind, could be adjudged demented, as he truly was, and thus the shadow of his crime be lifted from him. This was a great deal to think of in a very short time, but the good merchant did it, and the fervor of his thankfulness was greatly increased by his rapid reflections.
 As they were on their way home Kate's eyes were bright, and her step lighter than it had been of late. Now, uncle,'' said she, you know we shall not have to wait for any chance ship which may take the governors dispatch. We shall engage swift vessel ourselves, by which the orders may be carried. And, uncle, when that ship sails must go in her''
 "You!" cried NIT. Delaplaine That can never-'' tS
 'Isut remember, uncle" cried Kate, r"it is just as likely that shall meet my fathers ship as any other. My father shall be brought here and the good gov erncr will make him safe, and free him, as he best knows how, from the terrible straits into which his disturbed reason has led him"
 | Her uncle would not darken Kate's bright hopes, ill-founded though he thought them. To look into those sparkling eyes again was a joy of which he would not deprive himself, if he could help it.
 Suppose he should capture our ves- sel,' she exclaimed; what a grand thing it would be for him, all unkno ing, to spring upon our deck and instant ly be captured by me. After that, there would be no more pirates life for him!"
 When Dame Charter heard what had happened at the governors house and had listened to the recital of Kate's glow ing schemes, her eyes did not immedi- ately glisten with joy.
 If you go, Mistress Kate" said she, "in search ofyour father, go with you, but cannot go without my Dickory. It Is full time to expect his return, all though, as he was to depend upon so many chances before he could come back, his absence may, with good req son, continue longer. and I could not have him come back and find his mother gone, no man knows where. For in such a quest, what man could know?" "Oh, Dickory will be here soon! cried Kate; ''any ship which comes sailing towards the harbor may bring him."
