The peurl stringer’s eye becomes practiced in the detection of real and imitation pearls. One glauce is usually sutficient. A genuine penrl has a hard look. It presents a sort of shell-like surface with an indescribable blush. This blush Is so cleverly counterfeited in wax Imitations that even those who are accustomed to handliug pearls day after day are likely to be deceived. In one of the large New York jew- elry houses last winter a_customer purchased a hand painted miniature set in a frame of imitation pearls. On examination it was found that sev- eral of the pearls had been slightly defaced. and the whole thiug was sent to the manufacturing rooms for re pairs. By chance it came under the eye of one of the pearl stringers, who instantly detected four genulve pearls in the circle of imitation ones about the picture. The frame had passed through a dozen expert hands with- out any one's wvoticing the presence of real pearls. No one could account for their being there. If they had not been detected the purchaser of the frame would have bad a bargain, for the four genuine pearls were worth many times more than the picture and the rest of its setting.—New York ‘Tribune. Spirit of Young America. A teacher in a Pbiladelphia public school narrated the following account of how an aspiring young Italian citi- zen was beginning to show the effects of an American environment. The story, which was told at a teachers’ as- sociation meeting, runs something like this: Tony bad been away from school about a week, and when he showed up ore morning the teacher asked him where he had been. “I ran away,” said Tony. “Ran away! What did you do that for?" asked the teacher. “My father was going to lick me, so I thought I'd run away,” was the re- ply. The teacher by further questioning brought out the fact that Tony for some trifling dereliction . had been threatened with a beating and had stayed away from home the best part of a week. “But your father has the right to whip you,” said the teacher. “Yes, he may,” added Tony, “but I was born in this country, and 1 don't want no foreigners to lick me.”—Pitts: burg Chronicle-Telegraph. Costa Rican Volcanoes. Costa Rica has been subject to earfh- quakes for many years. Part of the republic is exceedingly mountainous, and in this part of the country there are more than a score of volcanoes, some of them dead, but a few that break out periodically. There are three or four that have been active for more than a century. Some of these are mear San Jose, the capital. Costa Ricans have always believed that earthquakes, which the country bas ex- perienced ever since it was first set- tled by Spanish adventurers. were caused by the volcanoes. There is good ground for this belief, because it bas been noticed that earthquakes of more or less intensity followed the ac- tivity of these volcances. If the vol- canic eruptions were violent the earth- quakes were correspondingly severe.— Washington Post. A Witty Retort. A good story is told of two great Irishmen, the late Archbishop Plunket and Father Healy, the well known parish priest of Bray. Making their way together to Bray railroad station one morning, the priest urged that they should hurry, but the prelate’s appeal to his watch convinced him that they had ample time. They ar- rived to see the train for Dublin dis- appearing. The archbishop’s apolo- gies were lavish. He pleaded that he bad always had unbounded faith in his watch. *“My dear Lord Plunket,” was Father Healy’s rejoinder, “faith won’t do without the good works.”— Blackwood's Magazine. * Alkarazza, Alkarazza is the name given to ves- sels cf very porous earthenware which when filled with water are always moist outside and owing to the evapo- ration of the water on their surface al- ways keep their contents cool.

On burning the sawdust is destroyed and the clay thereby left porous.

Malleable Glass of the Egyptisns. Strabo and Josephus both affirm that the Egyptian glass workers were so well skilled in their art that they imi- tated the amethyst and other precious stones to perfection.

Strabo men- tions a cup of glass which could be hammered into any desired shape, the material of which it was composed be- Phone 12. ing as ductile as lead. A WELLMAN PARTY | RESGUED AT SEA Picked Up By Steamer Off Cape Hatteras. HAD DRIFTED FAR SOUTH Adverse Winds Drove Big Balloon Far Out of Its Course and It Was Aban- doned Off the North Carolina Coast. Total Distance Covered Appears to Have Been Approximately 850 Miles. New York, Oct. 19.—A wireless mes- sage to the New York Times from Captain Dowd of the Royal~Mail steamer Trent says that the Trent picked up Walter Wellman and the crew of the America. The airship had been abandoned. The rescue was made in latitude 35.43, longitude 68.18. The position reported by Captain Dowd indicates that Wellman and his crew were picked up at a point about 150 miles due east of Cape Hatteras on the North Caroline coast. The wireless message recéived by Sandison & Son, local agents of the Royal Mail steamship packet line, ply- ing between New York and Cuba and Bermuda, was signed by Commander Dowd of the steamer Trent and re- ceived as follows: “At 5.a. m. sighted Wellman’'s air- ship America in distress. Signals by Morse code that she required assist- ance and help. After three hours maneuvering and fresh winds blow- ing got Wellman with entire crew of five and cat. They were hauled safe- ly on board. All are well. America was abandoned in latitude 35.45 north, longitude 68.18 west.” The departure from Atlantic City occurred at 8 o'clock last Saturday morning. The course taken by the airship up to the time of its wreck shows to what extent it was the prey of the wind and weather. On Satur- day morning it was 300 miles north- west of Atlantic City, off the Nan- tucket lightship. On Monday it must have encountered strong winds from the northwerd, as it was driven 350 miles southward, finally bringing up east of the North Carolina coast. Here it was entirely outside of the range of transatlantic steamers going between New York and Boston, Philadelphia and other points to the leading ports of Europe. The dispatches thus far give only the essential facts of the rescue. MRS. WELLMAN IS THANKFUL News of Husband’s Safety Communi- cated to Wife. Philadelphia, Oct. 19.—When in- formed by long distance telephone of the news of the rescue of Walter Well- man and his crew Mrs. Wellman, who was in her room in an Atlantic City hotel, exclaimed: “Thank God for the good news. I am overjoyed to learn that my hus- band and the brave men with him are safe.” Mrs. Wellman was eager for partic- ulars and expressed deep regret when informed that the America had been abandoned. Shipping men here say the Trent left Bermuda Monday and must have been 400 or 500 miles south of Sandy Hook when the Wellman party was encountered. WILLIAM V. MOODY IS DEAD Had Achieved Distinction in Literary Fields. Chicago, Oct. 19.—The body of William* Vaughn Moody, poet, play- wright and critic, who died in Colora- do Springs, will be brought to Chicago for burial. At the age of forty-one Moody had achieved unusual distinction in liter- ary fields and as a playwright. One of his best known plays was “The Great Divide,” played for several sea- sons by Henry Miller. Moody had been ill for more than a year with tumor of the brain. POLITICIANS NEAR DEATH Elevator at Milwaukee Falls Three Staries. Milwaukee, Oct. 19.—F. E. McGov- ern, candidate for governor on the Re- publican ticket, with two other state candidates and five members of the state central committee, narrowly escaped death when the elevator in which they were riding fell three stor- ies in an office building. The state central committee, a meet- ing of which they were then about to attend, passed resolutions mourning the death of Senator Dolliver.

Rochester, Minn., Oct. 19.—Senator Robert M. Lafollette has so far im- proved from his operation of two weeks ago as to be able to sit up a short time each day. He continues to show some improvement.
