Where The People Boost Their Town.
Baltimore and Ohio railroad officials
were back in their offices today after
making another inspection trip oyer
the system. This trip took in Pitts
burg and the Butler division and a
part of the lines in West Virginia.
The feature of the trip was a dinner
given to the officials by the citizens
of Clarksburg, West Virginia.
This town has an industrial com
pany, to which the citizens, big and
little, subscribed and raised fund to
secure new industries. The effect has
been to multiply the population of
the place.
They all feel proud of what the
town is doing, and swhen anyone of
moment comes along the leading
people see that they get good idea
of what the place is and expects to be.
The Baltimore and Ohio officials,
who are hustlers in their own way,
were delighted with the experience,
and each came away thinking more
of this wideawake West Virginia
town, Those on the trip were Presi-
dent Murray First Vice-P President

TOO LARGE TO BE USEFUL.
Diamond Had to BE Broken Before II
Could Be Marketed.


In jewelers. circles great interest
has been awakened by the announce
ment that cutting operations have
been commenced on the great Jag
ersfontein Excelsior, the largest and
finest diamond in the world, says tbs
South American. The stone was held
for ten years before it's owner could
make satisfactory arrangements for
its cutting, which has now been UNI
dertaken by a firm in Amsterdam,
Holland. 1t was transported from
London to Amsterdam under special
police protection and carpeted room
with a specially made safe has been
provided for it's care during the pro-
cess of cutting and polishing. The
responsibility of handling and guard
ing so precious a stone may be gath
cred from the fact that its value may
be almost anything. When discover
ed it was estimated to be worth ST.
100000, but in its finished state it
will command fabulous price.
The story of the discovery of this
wonderful gem is of no little interest.
1t was found on June 30, 1893, ct
Jagersfontein, in the Orange Free
State, South Africa. The stone was
picked up by native while he was
loading a truck. and, although a white
overseer was standing near him, he
managed to secrete it and keep it on
his person for some time. In this
case, however, it did not appear that
he proposed stealing the gem, but
only wished to deliver it personally to
the manager. This he did, and as a
bonus he received $3.50 and a horse,
saddle, and bride. The diamond
weighed in the rough exactly 971 "a
caratS, or about ounces avoirdu-
pois. 1t is of beautiful bluish-white
color and shaped like the broken-off
end of an icicle. The diamondiferous
monster measures 3 inches in length,
/ IL inches in greatest and l 1-3
inches in least breadth. The Excel
sior has now been broken into six
teen pieces; the largest three are
1853. LAT and 100 carats, respectively
These individual gems, in themselves
of extraordinary size, will be, when
fully cut and polished, among the
finest in the world, and the value of
the original stone will thus be null
tiplied.

CITY Residents Near.siahted.

1.-THE race is growing near-sighted,
owing to city life and the conditions
of our civilization" said Frederick P.
Simmons, examining eye specialist,
while addressing the ambers of the
New England Associ' ION of Optic
ians.
"Our visual range is confined to
near objects for the greater part OF
the day." said he, "and this keeps the
eyes turned in. An object twenty feet
away will make the eyeballs parallel.
Anything less viii turn them in,
and people who spend hours in offices
and crowded flats necessarily have
a short range of vision, which over
works and weakens the interior mus
cles close to the nasal cavi%.
1.-THE exterior muscles not being SO
strained, are strong, and hence cause
the eyes to turn out. Let person
who is thus affected spent week or
two in the country and his eyes be-
come normal again, because he gets
greater range of vision. Savages are

A WIfe's Allowance.

Is It desirable that wives choult
enjoy a fixed monetary allowance 70
their own disposal for dress and suci
personal expenses as are continually
arising? The question is put forward
In the pages of leading authority or
matters of feminine interest, and Is
ansW cred from various points OF view
Thus, a business woman urges that
man shoul not give him wife unlimit
ed credit at shops and then be indig
nant If her expenditure is large. On
the other hand, says this lady, an
allowance spurs on woman TO live
within her means, and teaches her
the value of money. A lawyer lays
down the maxim that a man owes 1t
to the girl he marries to keep her
free from financial worries. There
are those husbands who admit that
they are only glad to hand over the
larger part, if not the whole, indeed,
of their income to careful and man
aging wives, leaving them to arrange
the scale Of household outlay, and
taking what they regard as necessary
for their own and the children
dress.-London Telegraph.
