AT 81 PER CARAT
German Professor of High Stand
ing Claims to Have Solved
Problem.

BERLIN, J''ne 1t viii be officially
announced tomorrow that Prof. Miethe,
Of the famous Charlottenburg Tech
meal School and a member OF the pTivy
council, has discovered a successful and
practical method OF making artificial
sapphiIes. rubies ard emeralds of any
size and shape desired.
Prof Miethe's standing in the Ger
man scientific world l1recludes the sup
position that he IS another Lem0ine.
The professor has also perfected a pro-
cess Of making a rare gem called Alex
audrite.
Prof. Miethe SAYS that ne has been
unusually successful with rubies, manu-
featuring them of various shades, in
GLIDING the valuable pigeon-blood color
He claims that he can produce gems at
very low cOst-TuDies and sapphires
at about 81 per carat and AleNandrites
at So a carat. Prof Mierbe claims
that he will be able 10 make diamonds
soon.
EXPERTS are satisfied or the purity OF
the MIethe gems and OF the impossi-
bility OF distinguishing them from the
natural gems A Russian nobleWOman
has already placed an order Tor q yell

NEW OPERA STAR
AN AMERICAN GIRL
Miss Edyth Walker Considered
Worlds Greatest Isolde by
London Critics.

LONDON, June Further appear
ances have confirmed the fact that the
triumphant success of Miss Edyth Wal
keT, at the Covent Garden opera. was
not the result Of an accident. Mss Wal
ker by sheer hard work has fought her
way into the same rank as MelDa and
Tetrazzini. and the American contingent
here has almost buried her beneath con-
gratulations.
The London critics have characterized
her Isolde as the greatest ever seen on
The English stage and an engagement
al the coming Beyreutn festival has fol-
lowed as a matter Of course.
Ehe curious part of IL ali is that seven
years ago Miss Walker sang at CoNeat
Garden as a contraltO. Her sudden de-
VelOpment OF a soprano voice is as great
an accident as the m-baritone-to-
tenor transformation Of Jean de Reske
and Sims Reeves.
The result is that Miss Walkers range
is phenomenal and she takes high or low
notes with equal ease. Americans here
are reiOiced TO learn that she is Hope

A Question for Everybody.

What will you do for the children
of Washington
That is the nub of the statement
prin-ed on another page from the
Fairgrounds Association. If the
people Of Washington raise $3.50,
somewhat more than 1872, 600 play
days can be Provided-to expand
the child's lungs, to instiIl in him
the sense of fair play. to take him
from the streets, TO make and keep
his play helpful and wholesome. If
the people of Washington do not
raise the S6,95o, by every cent they
fall short some child must lose a
day of such play,
The question, then, skips nobody.
II is for every man and woman in
Washington to answer. And it is as
easy to fulfill as it is easy to re-
member;
What will you do for the children
of Washington?

Good Work Going On.

The Unitarians, recently in annual
session in Boston, have described
their meeting as IAN encouraging
anniversary week" 1t would be a
pity TO record any other result in
view of the liberal and uplifting ma
tuTe of the Unitarian creed. True,
creed alone does not make the man.
Mere faith is a cloak that anyone
can wear. But the various officials
of the church which has its Ameri-
can stronghold in New England
have reported good deeds through
cut the national field. Notable
work has been done on the Pacific
coast. among the Scandinavians in
the Northwest, and also among the
negroes.
The weeks meetings in Boston
combine to lend particular interest
TO the famous profession of faith
that Senator Hoar made at the Uni
tartan conference held here at
Washington in 1899, a glowing state
ment now selected TO convey its
lesson permanently from the pedes-
tai of the Hoar memorial at Wor-
cester. 1t runs as follows:
I believe in God. the living God. in
the American people, a free and brave
people. who do not bow the neck or
bend the knee to any other, and who
desire no other 10 bow the neck or
bend the knee TO them. 1 believe that
liberty, good government, free institu-
lions, cannot be given by any one people
10 any other but must be wrought out
by each for itself. slowly painfully,
IN the process of years or centuries, as
the oak adds ring TO ring. I believe that
whatever clouds may darken the hori-
ION, the world is growing better, that
today is better than yesterday. and to-
morrow will be better than today.
a little more of Senator Hoar's
optimism would enhance the inHu-
ence of the general run of patriots
and churchmen.

He is telling the colored people Of this

was a negro, that Moses was a negro.
thai Solomon was negro, and that
Homer was q negro.
His present business In this country
is TO tell the blocks TO go back 10
Africa. where he says they belong He
bases his assertion that Moses was a
negro on a Biblical story to the effect
that God told Moses to put his hand IN
his bosom. and that when Moses drew
the hand out il was white, therefore lie
must have been black.
He says that SOlOmons mother was

are the only Cushites in the world.

PREACHER REBUKES
METHODIST CHURCH
DR.. Goodell, Denied a Bishopric
Because of Divorce Story, At
taCkS His Foes.

NEW YORK, June The Rev Dr.
Charles L. Goodel, who. by the circu-
lation OF a story TO the effect that he
had been connected with divorce scan
daI, failed in election 20 a bIshopric at
the recent general conference In Baltl-
more, delivered a cutting criticism Of
his foes before a congregation that
packed Calvary Methodist Episcopal
Church yesterday.
The worst thing I'm the world" said
DIT. GoodeI. is concelted conscience
A man SO afflicted will apply the torch
and the sword. and not stop at the
fagot. TO carry out his purpose, forget
ting entirely that hatred and death
have no place I'm Gods plan and that
righteousness alone viii prevail"
Dr. Goodel reminded his congrega-
ton that God not only delivered ma
lions, but delivered individuals from
their enemies.

mitted precisely that operation
which rifles Congress worst, and
makes judicious citizens grieve the
most. Then the whole sum allowed
for the ground was by some pro-
moter divided by the number of feet
in the block designated, options
were obtained, and the ground Of
fered 10 the Government at that
price or none. 1t was bought at
that price. That it could have been
bought for less is known of every
body.
The course for the Government to
follow, if the askingPrice is too high,
invited. is to undertake condemna-
ton proceedings in earnest. Again
and again it has permitted this
method TO be made more costly
than purchase or the owners terms.
The reason was that too few wit
nesses were examined, and all the
testimony heard was that of per-
sonal appraisement, Why were not
the banks asked how much they
had lent on the property in ques-
ton? They have fixed a limit for
themselves Of two-thirds of the
value of property offered as secur-
ity Why was not the testimony of
suits at law involving this property
given some attention. It would
have revealed highly important es-
Inmates Of value on the part of the
very persons then claiming a third
or half more. Why were not the
proceedings of the Board of Asses
sors given their proper weight?
The sum allowed by this bill is
probably not far in excess of the
present market value of ne four
squares. The course here proposed
for the Secretary of the Treasury
TO follow may not result in any
great saving of money. But the
effect Of il will be of the first inn
portance TO the Capital. For it will
prove, as no purchase of ground
for such a use in ten years has
proven, that it is possible for the
Government to buy a site in Wash
ington and make sure that it is pay
ing a fair price and no more.
