 REPUBLICANS
Nuggets Special Service.

CHICAGO. Jan. 9. - At a Jefferson banquet which was given here last night William Jennings Bryan attacked the policy of the Republicans with re- spect to financial affairs and the cen tralization of the power of the govern ment.
 He believed that the country is more seriously threatened with an aristo cratic form of government than the people seem to think.
 IL is his firm conviction, he said. that the movement towards centralizing the power of the states in the federal government was big move toward the ultimate establishment of a far less Democratic form of government.
 He also accused the Republican par ty of aiding Wall street to q position that enables it practically to control the country.

HOMEMADE JEWELS.
Unlimited Experiments in the Max
ing of Precious Gems.
ne. London Agricultural Economist.

From the London Agricultural Economist.
Cultivators whose land is composed to
any extent of the common .clays may
assure themselves that they are also own
ers of unknown quantities of both alum
and aluminium, and. further, that al
though these products are proeurable
from the troublesome stuff, the requisite
processes involved in their extraction
have hitherto proved Of so costly char
acter as to preclude the advisability of
such manufactures becoming at all widely
favored among others besides the profess
sional men.
The beautiful metal. aluminium. is OBJ
tanned by the artificial decomposition OF
pure clay. Naturally, the matter is too
technical for protracted reference in these
columns. Alum, too. as can be gathered
from the sound of its name. is intimately
associated with the metal and has a SIM
liar origin. II would not be a difficult
matter for those readers who burn their
clay soil to secure supplies of this chem
ical If they cared to undertake the trou-
BILE.
While clay is being consumed at a tenn
perature cansing it to assume dull red
hue. If ii should then be properly acted
upon by sulphuric acid-anOther substance
used by all growers. and found combined
in their various sulphates-it will yield
due to these reflections that l felt tempt
ed to set forth the peculiar experiments
notified. believing that 1t would attract
little enthusiasm in some quarters.
Select a few crisp cinders of any con-
venient size from the fire crate. and free
them as far as possible from any ash
and other refuse. Then boil half a pint
or mOre-Of water. and into 1T gradually
drop some powdered alum. stirring ii
meantime with glass rod. Continue dis
solving the alum in this manner until the
water will contain no more Of il. After
ward pour the compound into a cup or
glass and suspend two three of the
prepared cinders within IL by tying a
thread around each of them and over a
penholder. which will serve as a bridge
across the top of the vessel holding the
objects Allow all TO stand undisturbed
in some cool corner for day or two.
When the cinders are withdrawn a
charming. instructive display will reward
the experimenter as each paltry bit of
metrical crystals. resembling four-sided
pyramidal diamonds of large size. If
these false mineral spars'' be kept away
from contact with dirt for some time they
will eventually become dense china white
in tint. while still retaining their very
sharply defined formation. Really mag
nificent effects may be derived by STAIN
ing the alum solutions with logwood. some
of the aniline compounds or other dyes.
Even red ink can be employed.
You can deceive your friends. If so
minded. by making the crystals brilliantly
red. blue. green. violet and so on. BY
dipping the cinders first In a red solu-
ton and then scraping off some OF the
crystals. and later on immersing the OBJ
jects in say, a blue liquid. cha rnng two
,colored results may be obtained. There
is no limit, indeed, to the performance.
