right moment, because the fashion
in jewels is changing, partly for
the better and partly for the
worse, and every combination has
been tried except this exquisite
one. That a clear stone and an

for those who know how finely
pale coral goes with diamond, and
pearl with amethyst, turquoise
and emerald add to the difference

been matched with the sky, art has
played more or less happily with
blue and green. Yet never have
the very blue and very green been
brought close in these two gay
stones. The jewelerh afraid,
although he could not go wrong,

position upon the matter Of proper

upon these subjects and believes him
to be sincere. he is the more con-

three campaigns, the republican party

that nothing short Of a powerful
moral conviction could induce Mr..

The fact that the president has long

candidate for reelection is assumed
to mean that he has nothing to fear
and no favors to ask, and that he ID

ton of the British naval forces,

says the New York Post. NJ. de
IIanessan observed that hitherto
the British admiralty has been
guided by the principle that the
British feet should be superior to
those Of the two strongest naval
powers combined. That end has
long since been attained, and in his
opinion England now contem
plates the possibility of a conflict
with three powers - namely,
France, the United States and
Germany. She can oppose to Ger
many the channel feet and the At
lantic fleet. Even supposing Ger
many were to be supported by the
Italian and Austrian navies, their
junction would be rendered impOs-
sible by the British Mediterranean
fleet and the Gibraltar forces.
Against the United States Eng
land could employ her Gibraltar
fleet, the western section of her
cruisers and two squadrons Of ar.
mOred cruisers without weaken.
ing her forces In home waters. In
case of combined action by Ger
many and the United States Eng
land could still oppose superior
forces to each navy. 1t is only
through a triple alliance between
the American and French repub-
lies and the German empire, he
thinks, that the situation of Eng
land could become critical, not on
account Of the strength of the
combined squadrOns, but owing to
the military forces Of France and
Germany.

CARDINAL IN WALKING BOUT
Gibbons Bssts Sir Horace Flunkstt IN
Tsn-Mile Match-Aftsr Eject
70 Notable.

-
Cardinal Gibbons, the veneer
able primate Of the Roman Cath
Ole church in America, is a fer
vent advocate of walking as a
means of prolonging life and add
ing to health and vigOr. The car
dinal has passed the allotted age
of man, yet he can do his ten miles
a day without the slightest incon-
venience, and he accomplishes
this task faithfully except in in
clement weather. To Baltimore
ans he is a familiar sight out for a
jaunt, but strangers generally are
astonished when told that the d.
minutive, somewhat shabby look
ing man, without one single ex-
terror sign of his dignity, is the IL
lustrious ehurchman and scholar.
he usually walks alone and it iS a
token of marked favor to be In
vited to join in his rambles.
Not many moons ago, Sir Hor-
ace Plunkett, the Irish patriot and
member of parliament, was visit
ing this country and he brought
among other letters Of intrOduc-
ton one from the archbishop of
Westminster to his eminence Of
Baltimore. Sir Horace arrived
lust before the cardinals noon
day meal, and as the ancient tradi-
tons still hold in Baltimore, he
was asked to take his luck at the
board. The conversation took a
turn on the cardinals hobby, the
benefits to be derived from long
and constant walking. Sir Horace
agreed with all the arguments ad-
vanced, but purely in a perfume
tory way. The cardinal was de-
lighted and proposed a jaunt
right after luncheon.
The visitor sized VI the physique
of the prelate and as he already
knew that he had reached his sew
e~nty-secOnd birthday, he thought
it a safe proposition to consent.
The cardinal started out on his
jog trot, telling his guest many in.
teresting things as they went. But
he went and went. He passed the
struggling houses of the suburbs
and finally got into the open coun
try. Occasionally a carriage would
drive by and the occupants would
draw up and ask if they could give
his eminence and his friend a
Gift" The cardinal would then
carefully explain that his friend
was a stranger and he was show.
ing him the sights,
Sir Horace Plunkett. confdcd
afterwards that he had not walked
ten miles consecutively in as many
years, and he was sOlame the next
day that he could not keep an en-.
gagement with a party of scien.
lists at the Columbia university in
New York.
