PRECIOUS STONES IN DEMAND
From Earliest Times They Have Been
Accorded High Esteem and
Admiration.


In robberies now being reported
from day to day there is reminder
of expenditures that defy the high
cost Of living, and Of a trade that
prospers however others may Ian
| guish. AS civilization grows more
complex and populations multiply,
new sources Of precious stones are
sought out and fresh values utilized.
To the old vocabulary unfamiliar
names are being added. We know
all about sapphires, rubies and en-
eralds, about the beryl, the garnet,
the topaz, the chrysoprase and the
tourmaline. How many of us could
identify the california;, the vesu-
vianite, the beneotite, or pick out
from other gems genuine bits of
viriscite, amatrice, uthlite and chlor-
utahlitep Yet the use Of all these
for decorative purposes is on the in
crease; in the United States alone
it has reached an output value of
over half million dollars.
Turn to the most ancient of
precious stones, the diamond. Leg
end assures us that it was a power
to conjure with in the days of the
Mahabarata, 5000 years ago; it
flashed out from the breastplate of
the Jewish high priest in biblical
times. Long before the mines of
Golconda turned it out to be cut
and polished for the use of Indian
potentates the campaigns of Alex
ander the Great had brought knowl-
edge of it to Europe, and diamonds
were already priced by the Romans
in the first century of the Christian
era. But they we're not fairly in
use until after the fourteenth. The
fuller modern supply began with the
discoveries in Brazil 300 years
later, and was extended by the dis
coveries in Australia, Borneo, Java,
Singapore and Siam. 1t eliminated
toward the later part of the nine
tenth century in the epoch-making
operations of the African mines,
which have already created new
civilization and helped to build up
a new empire south of the equator.

Liked Their VIands Sweet.


Pineapple chunks and roast beef as
a dinner dish sounds like a return to
the habits of the forefathers, who al
ways wanted something sweet with
their meat. Sir Walter Besant tells
how in Tudor days most peoples
teeth were black on account of their
diet. Honey was poured lavishly over
the beef and sugar employed to give
FLIP to the poultry, and even the
wine had to be much sweetened to
please the palate of the medieval
gourmet. To this day Englishmen
add current jelly to mutton, apple
souce to pork, and in Germany stewed
pears form the usual trimming" Of
chicken.

LICENSE
GIVES CITY $4,000

Through its increased license rates
the Excise Board will this year bring
to the city approximately $3.50
This is an increase of nearly 100000
over last years revenue from this de-
partment.
At its last meeting the board tackled
$50 on each license fee. bringing the
saloon license to s450. wholesale to
$3.50 and beer bottlers. to 5000.
In licenses alone the city will this
year receive $644,500, an increase of
sos, $50 over last years receipts. For
transfers it is estimated that the
board will receive about $4,000, an
increase of $210 over last year.
There are at present 1889 saloons in
the city. OF this number only 299
licenses were renewed under the old
rate. The remainder will have to pay
the additional $50 tax. Thirty seven
have to pay the new fee. The other
twelve licenses expired before the new
rate was put into effect, and will
therefore, be renewed at the old
figure. OF the forty-nine beer bottlers
twenty will be compelled to pay
the new 5000 rate.
Last years receipts for licenses
amounted to $5s5,95O, while $3.50 was
received for transfers, bringing the
total revenue up to 1891, 240.
Several renewals of licenses at the
increased rate will be considered by
the board in its session tomorrow
afternoon. 1t is understood, also,
that the residents of the Vailsburg
section will be on hand with petitions
protesting against the licensing of
any more saloons in that section.

Ter. of Falls City. last Sunday night,

who repulsed a desperate attack upon

During the fight doors were bat

and walls SCARED by bullets.
Five motor cars bearing more than
q score Of armed Falls City men
drove up to the Jail shortly after .
o'clock this morning. The sound of
gunshots and patter of bullets on the
walls was the first signal of attack.
Undersheriff Barlow. whose resi-
dence is in the Jail building, had sta
toned deputies inside the building in
anticipation of trouble. Four of the
men of the mob burst open the heavy
door leading into the residence apart
ment. In the corridor they were con
ffonted by Barlow, who at the point
of a revolver. forced them out of the
building. Deputies guarded the way
of communication from the sheriff's
apartments into the cell rooms and
also every window.
Meanwhile the shouts and sounds
OF firing had attracted scores of
citizens. Their arguments and the
determined stand of the officers
finally induced the departure of the
sssailants. They returned to Falls
City. after being assured that Bal
lew would be returned to Nebraska
for trial as soon as legal formalities
were complied with.
