SIMPLE DIAMOND TEST
HOW AN AMATEUR MAY DENT. IFY PRECIOUS STONES
 FROM FALSE
All limitations Give Dougle Reflections, While the Genuine Article Affords but one-Needle Hole in Card Experiment Is Sure One.

LONDON, April 30.-The gossip con cerning the diamond market as to whether the large stock on hard would result in cut prices has inspired many articles dealing with these gems. Be sides stories from the diamond mines, 'he romance of diamond cutting and of d'a~ord robberies, there have been in. 'ervieys wi.h we'll known jewellers con
 e-ning the science or art of selecting gems.
 ''F Few persons, ' writes a Strand jew eler, "are willing to trust to their own knowledge and, observation in purchas- ing diamonds. Even pawnbrokers, who spend their lives in handling precious stones, are often cheated Although to become an expert is the development of a special gift through years of expert ence, there are few simple tests which will aid buyer of diamonds.
 "OneNtest is to prick a needle hole through card and look at the hole through the doubtful stone. If the lat ter is spurious two holes will be seen. but if it is diamond only one hole will be visible. Every imitation stone which resembles diamond gives dou- ble reflection, while the genuine dia. mond's reflection is single This is delicate test because it is difficult to see even a sharp and well-defned object. through diamond. The single refrac- tion of the gem also allows one to de- termine an uncertain stone. If the fin ger is placed behind and viewed through the stone with watc hmaker s glass, the grain of the skin will be plainly seen if the stone is not a diamond But if it is diamond the grain of the skin will not be noticeable at all.

Special to the Silver Belt.
 SOLOMONVILLE, April 30-During this term of court, several cases of minor importance have arisen, the trials of which have proved to be merely time consuming and expensive farces. Not only expensive to the taxpayers of the county, but also to witnesses who have come here at their own expense to tes. tify. Nor does this fact include the in. justice done the prisoners in such cases.
 In illustration of the foregoing facts is cited the case of the territory vs. i Antonio Hernandez, under indictment for burglary committed in November, 1907. Only one witness had been ex- amined, this witnes clearly and beyond all doubt proving the guilt of the de- fendant. When the attention of the judge was called, by Attorney Burch for the defense, to the fact that the indictment against prisoner read that the offense was committed in Novem- Der, 1908, date in this year yet eight months in the future.
 His honor immediately excused the witnesses and instructed the jury to return verdict of not guilty on ac- 'ount of the variance in the proof and the indictment. Now the prisoner is re- handed to the custody of the sheriff and will be compelled to lay over in jail until the grand jury again meets in six months and returns new indictment
 The county at the present rate pays forty cents per day for each prisoner for board, which by the time he is again arraigned for trial will amount to a considerable expense, and this does not include the extra time which will be incurred when his case comes up again before the grand jury, district at torneys, etc, at so much per day. And the above is only one of seven cases which have had mistrials for the sole reason of faulty indictments.
 In the case of the territory vs. Geo. High, indicted for rape, the case was 'ubmitted to the jury, who retired at 2:30 o'clock. In two hours and forty minutes the jury came in and returned verdict of guilty as charged in the indictment and recommended the pris- oner to the mercy of the court. The prisoner exhibited considerable signs If nervousness on the reading of the verdict, while the wife of the prisoner, who was outside the court room in the

Mr.. Choate, in giving his estimate OF

name and memory of our great COM
mander would still have been tenderly
cherished by a grateful people and an
admiring world, very much as the
name of General Robert e. Lee is now
cherished in the South, honored by the
North and admired wherever men do
homage to military genius, to heroic
achievements, to self-sacriicing devo-
ton"
The distinguished orator. said that II
it had been put to a vote among the
forty-five nations at the last Hague
peace conference, to which he was a
delegate, to say who raj the noblest
public character in modern History. he

selected Washington.

MINISTER THINKS WEBER

porter today. ut was fortunate for
him thai the victim was a notorious
character. and this, of curse, will be
considered by the Grand Jury. Per-
sonally, if / were on the Grand Jury
] would not return an indictment of
manslaughter against the policeman,
but would recommend that he be pun
ished for shooting without positive
knowledge that the man was guilty.
Even il the man We're guilty of a minor
crime, he should not have been shot.
"Of course, his refusal to halt when
commanded by the policeman TO do so
was suspicious. But 1t didn't prove
that the man was guilty of any crime.
Under the circumstances l don't think
Weber was justified in shooting"

POOLROOM RAID
Yisif0rs Bent on Bankrnpting

Fined SIS and Costs.
JUSTICE ACCOMPANIES
THE CONSTABLE'S RAIDERS
One "Sure Thing Pulled 0ff,"
but Only Officials
Were Wise"

A large number of Newark sports
who went to Delawanna yesterday to
get some spending money for Wash
iugton's Birthday were sorely disap-
pointed. They la to get out of the
place. leaving behind their overcoats,
overshoes and what small bills they
had in the hands of the bookmakers.
This was due to the well-planned
raid engineered by Constable william
Coughlin, of Clifton, and his band of
deputies. The alleged poolroom was To-
Gated in the old nused car barn of
the Public Service. close to Boz Searl's
Hotel, on the edge of the Essex and
Passaic counties line.
So certain was the constable that he
was going to make a capture tina he
took along with him Justice of the
Peace Fred Matthews, of Acquack-
nonck Township, and the handful of
man who failed to get away were
promptly fined SIS each.
1t is said the hackers of this pool
room came from Newark, and of course
those fined gave fictitious names.
The raid is the result of jealousy, SO
it is said, OF the part of some who are
interested in another place where, It
is said, pools on hors es are sold every
day except Sundays, and which is net
very far from the centre of the town
ship line.
