Gem Imports Go Down.

From the fact that the slump of the
fast three months has brought down the
imports Of diamonds and other precious
stones for the year ended with Novem-
Der to less than 10000, co., or half the
normal, the conclusion may not be fairly
drawn that Americans are cutting out
luXuries because Of hard times. The prac-
teal cessation of the work of cutting
precious stones in Amsterdam and Ant
werp because of the war has much to do
with the situation. 1t is a fact, how
ever, that years after panic years-lS74.
1894, 19OS-have shown q fall in diamond
importations, about 20 per cent in 1874.
about 50 per cent in 1884, and about 50
per cent in 1893, so that even If the war
were to end and cutting be resumed
in the European cities, a further fall of
imports might be shown in 1915. unless
the United States should develop boom
conditions, owing to a swollen export
trade.
The cutting interest in the United States
has not held its own. In 1907 out of $40,-
10000 imports over $ll,OOO,OOO were in the
rough. For last month the imports in
the rough were $169, ,913, and the cut
stones &s55.Olo The ratios compared show
lessening of cutting in America, yet
the industry is still cOnsiderable.-BrOok-

Kentucky Derby May Be l9l5s
Greatest Open Race Feature

to $4,000 for Senator J. y. Camden
Chalmers, that won eight races in the
season past. including the Harold
stakes and Fort Thomas handicap at
Latonia: Sea Shell. the star two-ycar-
old in the stable OF the Canadian TURF
man, r. J. Mackenzie; Emerson Coch-
ran, winner OF the Cincinnati Trophy
and other good races, and upward OF
twenty-five or thirty good two-year-old
winners OF the past season which may
develop this winter into three-year-
olds of Derby caliber.
1t will thus be seen that the Derby
may be considered the most open OF
all the previous events run on al
Churchill Downs. As great as were
some of the brilliant two-year-olds
racing in 1914. however. there was not
one that stood out like Old Rosebud
did in the previous season. 1t is also
regarded as a certainty that the nomI-
nations in the stake this season Will
exceed those OF any years since the
entries to the kentucky classic closed
when the eligibles to the great race
were three-year-Olds.

Boots that Were Trousers.

As leather is in such demand for mill
tary purposes, it is fortunate that pres
ent-day boots are made on a more eco
nomical plan than those in vogue at the
time of the Peninsular war and for many
years after. Hessians, which were then
the fashion, absorbed what would now
be considered an unnecessary amount of
leather. These boots, according to G. A.
Sala, were worn over tIght-htting PAN
taloons, the up-peaking front almost
touching the knee. and bearing a silk
tassel, the back part slOped to the calf
being full below. and with a high heel

Louisville, Ky, Dec. 14.-Again the COM
ing season of 1915 will witness two great
races run Off in Louisville, with an added
value OF $4,000 each. These classics are
the Kentucky Derby, always decided at
Churchill Downs. and the third renewal
of the Kentucky Handicap. which will be
decided at Douglas Park. The former
event will be run of on May s. which is
a day earlier than it was held last year,
