The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1918-10-22

American gems have come into
fashion because of the high price
and scarcity Of diamonds, pearls and
other imported jewels, and the war
has brought in distinctively Ameri-
can jewelry styles.
Sapphires, garnets, opals. tur-
quoises. topazes, tourmalines, jade,
agate. peridot and fresh-water pearls
are native stones used in the new de-
signs. The sapphire has succeeded
the ruby in popularity. Agate and
jade and other opaque stones lend
themselves to beautiful cameo work
The new jewelry is often made in
sets, consisting of necklace. locket,
brooch. bracelets, eardrops, and ring,
all the pieces set with the same
stone. A jade set is particularly dis
tinctive. The tourmaline is among
the most fashionable stones. 1t is .
brilliant gem of many varieties OF
color and is worn singly or in com
hinatjon with other stones.
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1918-10-22

Many Of these native stones look
especially well in = setting Of silver
or the new alloy known as white
gold. The prevailing mode for con-
spicuous jcwelry with large stones in
the various pieces gives rich and
striking effects.
Longtime effects are decreed By
the new jewelry styles. The neck
lace with extended drops to prolong
the line is q slenderizing aid. Ear
rings with pendents are = long line
ornament. The chain on the meah-
bag carries out the idea
The war has established . wide
vogue for military jewelry. Tho
most popular forms are the photo
graph locket, the photograph loeket
ring. the locket bracelet, wrist
watches, pins. brooches and signet
rings engraved or embossed with
military insignia. The new jewelry
is not only becoming. but presents
limitless possibilities - limited

HEROIC HIGHLANDER
TELLS THR|ILIhG TALE

An Atlantic Port. October 21.--Af-
ter leaping from a fast-moving Ger
man prison train and making his way
for LIS miles across Westphalia to the
Dutch border, all the while CARRIED
only in his British uniform. Private
Herbert Bachelor. forty-eighth Ca
madam Highlanders, arrived here to-
day en- route to Vancouver. where he
enlisted early in the war.
Bachelors story of how he. with
seven others. was trapped thirty feet
underground by German mine. how
he escaped, only to be taken prisoner.
and finally how after losing fifty
pounds and almost on the verge of
starvation he made a perilous leap
for freedom, rivals the story of Lieu
tenantVPat O'Brien. american ace,
who had somewhat similar experience.
Seventy highlanders had been sent
out on a sapping expedition under the
German lines, when an explosion set
by German sappers killed sixty two
Iof the highlanders who were operat-
ing in the wings of their tunnel
Bachelor. with seven companions
was in the head of the sap. and they
were trapped by tons and tons OF dirt
which cut off retreat.
After waiting eight hours for help
they found difficulty in breathing, so
started the tedious task of digging
themselves out. This they accomplish
ed after many hours of toll, and the
weakened men crawled out into the
sunshine only to be taken prisoners
as fast as they emerged, the Germans
havin~ advanced 5000 yards.
Taken to prison camp at Dulmen,
by way of Belgium. where women and
children were brutality struck down
with rife butts for trying to smuggle
food to the prisoners, Bachelor and
his companions were put on a diet
of black bread. Later. at Minden.
where they were transferred to work
on the canals, they saw Is. 900 other
prisoners, mostly Russians. For some
reason the Russians were not getting
Red Cross packages. and they died
like flies Bachelor said.
Then l was started for the mines

A great many cars are fitted with
battery ignition systems in which the
distributor arm Is removable. Own
ers Of such cars can, by removing the
arm, make car stealing possible only
in two ways, towing 1t way or fitting
another arm. The arm il removed
simply by unclasping the distributor

panic on the New Year Stock Ex-
change. Dealers from all parts Of
the country will return home with
renewed enthusiasm and assured
that conditions are not nearly 90 bad
as they had supposed
There never has been a year since
the introduction Of the automobile in
America when more cars were not
produced and sold than in any prev
ious year, despite panics, hard times,
ana war. It was true in Canada last
year and the year before. despite the
large part Canada has taken in the
war. America must not be compared
with England and France. There the
use Of cars had to be curta1led, and
finally denied to private owners be-
cause Of gasoline shortage, and the
factories had to be devoted to pro-
duction Of war materials.
It is estimated that "a per cent Of
the cars used in this country are Of
American make, and If a comparison
were to be made upon values, this
percentage would be still higher, for
it can be safely computed that the
motor cars owned in the United
States aggregate a value Of nearly
IS, ,000, 900, 900, an estimate placed on
a basis Of rating 75 per cent Of the
total number registered last year at
81 900 each. and the remaining quart
er, or Is per cent, at $4,000 each, both
figures being conservative from as
low as 240O to $1,000 and over for
the hlgh-poweTed limousine with it's

TO keep these automobiles going,

Motorcycles IN JAVA.

One Of the occidental countries
in which the use Of motorcycles has
become popular is Java, an island
about as large as ell Of Great Bril-

1t is generally hilly, but there are
good roads over the island. A fa-
Vorite motorcycle tour in Java is the
one between Batavia and SoeTa,baya,
a distance Of about 345 miles, over

Relief Of terminal and warehouse

company. Owners Of motor trucks
are listed at the exchange and when
a company requires the use Of an ad-
ditional truck, 1t notifies the clearing
house and obtains the use Of an
idle machine. This will help the rail-
