A graduated increase of heat will not fracture the stone, which upon cool- ing becomes white, then green and finally regains its original red color. Main Supply in Upper Burma. From the beginning of its history the main supply of the ruby gem has been from a small territory in upper Burma, whence also have come those of the finest quality. The center of this mining reglon and the ruby trade is the town of Mogok, 90 miles northeast of Mandalay. The rubles are here found in a white dolomitic limestone or marble of the upper Car- boniferous age. The rocks have been altered by contact with molten igneous material, which recrystallized the calclum carbonate as pure caleite while a subsequent concentration of the aluminum formed the ruby. When Burma became a part of the British empire the work was taken up by an English company which pald the Indlan government for this concession of mining rights the equivalent of about $125,000 annually. Siam has long produced corundum rubles, but the gems are usually darker and inferior to the beautiful clear red stones from Burma. A few rubies have come from the gem-sands of Ceylon, Mysore and Madras, Af- ghanistan and Australia. Rubles have been found in North Carolini and Montana, but the products are not of commercial importance. Scale of Hardness. In the scale of hardness the ruby stands at 9, and will therefore scratch MEMORIAL BRIDGE WILL START JUNE 1, SHERRILL BELIEVES (Continued from First Page.) cubio yards of concrete, The estimated cost of this work alone is approxi- mately $3,000,000.

The draw span alone with ifting mechanism and without orna- mentation will cost about a half mil- llon dollars, In grading for the ap- proaches, 100,000 cubic yards of earth will be required. In dredging, 800,000 cubic yards will be removed. The ornamentation of the draw will cost about a quarter of a million dol- lars. About 120,000 cublc fest of gran- ite will be needed for facing the piers, sprandel walls and balustradec—the total estimated cost for this work be- ing $1,200,000.

The 40 ornamental lamps along the bridge are to cost $18,400. The authorization for the constru tion of the bridge contemplates a 10- year program for the complete job.

The Greeks and Romans ascribed to the ruby the power of giving light in the dark, and the Hindoos de- scribe the abodes of their gods as thus lighted. The ruby was much worn as an amulet, being supposed to protect the wearer against plague, Poison and evil spirits. It was also thought that it would turn dark If its owner were in danger and would not regain its color until the peril was over. The glowing hue of the ruby sug- gested the idea that an inextinguish- able flame burned in this stone. From this fancy came the assertion that the inner fire could not be hidden, as it would shine through the clothing or through any material that might be wrapped around the stone. If cast into the water the ruby communi- cated its heat to the liquid, causing it to boil.

BRITAIN TO DEMONSTRATE ARMY FEEDING SYSTEM Cooks Especially Trained in All Branches of Service and Food Is Best in History. Power Correspondence of the Assoclated Press. LONDON, February 20.—The British army has never been better fed than it is today, vs a war office officlal. Cooks are specially trained and their work will easily challenge comparison with that of West Eggd chefs. So sure are the authorities of this fact that Britain's new way of feeding its fighters will be demonstrated at a cookery and food exhibition in London next month. Cooks from the three service branches, army, navy and air force, will be there. The excellence of the army cooks' culinary efforts is due largely to a new book issued by the army council, which gives full instructions as to baking, steaming, braizing and fry- ing, as well as recipes and hints on carving. Origin of Curfew Bell. Many reasons have been assigned | for the establishment of the couvre- feu or curfew-bell in England by William the Conqueror, ‘but a few words will show that it was a meas- ure of sound policy. The houses were mostly of wood; the people were Iar from being contented with the Nor- man rule, and were afraid of vielons and supernatural appearances. By causing all fire and candles to be extinguished on the ringing of a bell at 8 o'clock, under pain of heavy penalties, the Conqueror gained these ends: He secured safety against fire, in an age when insurance socleties were not thought of; he caused his subjects to retire early to rest; the darkness added to their terror of ghosts and thus prevented their going abroad to hold midnight meet- ings for the purpose of fomenting civil discord and dangerous conspira- cies. Thus this curfew-bell was a FALL FIGHTS BANK ACCOUNT EVIDENGE Counsel Trying to Bar Fed- eral Testimony Offered in Teapot 0Oil Trial. By the Associated Pre y(,‘HE\’ENNH. Wyo., March 13 —Bat- tilng at the crucial stage of the Tea- pot Dome frial today, Harry F. Sin- Clair's alleged “million-dollar array of counsel” plunged into the case with a legal barrage to prevent introduc: tion of testimony regarding bank ac counts of Albert B. Fall, former Sec retary of the Interior, who executed the Teapot lease to Sinclair's Mam- moth Oil Co. J. W. Lacey, veteran Wyoming at- torney, led the attack with argument against the proposal of Owen J. Rob- erts of Government counsel to recall to the stand bank officials from EI Paso, Tex., and Pueblo, Colo, who, he said, would give testimony tending to show that Fall was the reciplent of certain Liberty bonds, some of which, it would be shown. had come from Sinclair. After the Government counsel had theoretically called the witness in order that the defense might enter its objection, Mr. Lacey took up the argument. We object to this testimony on the ground that no evidence thus far has been offered tending to connect the defendant or any one conneoted with the defendant in any con- spiracy,” he sald, “and in order to make such a connection Government counsel has not made this an fssue in the case. “The testimony as to the bank ac- counts of Fall thus far has been in the nature of hearsay; no conspiracy has been proved. This evidence not admissible to show a furtherance of conspiracy, nor {s it congerned with the transactions of Sinclair or the Mammoth O!l Co. The authoritles are plain that a conspiracy must be stablished before counsel! for the Government may go Into the bank records,” he added. Importance of Issue. It Judge Kennedy upholds the con- tention of Government counsel, he will permit the introductlon of testi- mony by which the plaintift expects to establish a financlal connection be- tween Fall and the defunct Conti- nental Trading Co. of Toronto, Can- ada, said to have been organized by Sinclair and other oll men. If he rules that the testimony Is not competent, he will bar from the case the last re- malining possibility by which financial connection between Fall and Sinclalr might be shown, according to defense counsel. On completion of arguments testimony of witnesses brought the Government from banks in Paso, Tex., and Pueblo, Colo., may continue, subject to ruling of Judge Kennedy as to their competency, or the plaintiff may continue the reading of deppsitions. the by El More Depositions Due. Depositions next on the list are those of James E. O'Neil, H. M. Black- mer and H. S, Osler, all of whom have been examined abroad as to transac- tions alleged to have been made be- tween Sinclair and Fall. Blackmer, O'Nell, Sinclair and A. E.
