SOME NATIVE GEMS.
PBSCIOUS STONES FOUND IN THH
UNITED STATES.
Nearly All the Gems Kaown to the j
World Exist In This Country—the
Only Trouble is That They Are Not
Big and Plentiful Enough to Pay lor
Mining.
From the Washington Star.
"Mining for precious stones will never
become a profitable industry in the United
states.” says Mr. Kunz, the celebrated gem
expert.
Systematic search for such miuoral traas
nreSi accoriing to his averment, is carried
„„ nowhere in this country save in Maine
and North Carolina. Elsewhere they turn
up accidentally, or while search is being
made for other valuable substances. Sap
phires are often discovered in Montana gold
sluices; the beryl from Connecticut is
obtained in connection with mica min
ing from the beds of streams and decom
tiosing rocks of Wyoming moss agate is
gathered, and on tbe beaches of the lakes
rhlorasimlioe and other beatiiul jewels at
tract the eye of the collector. Nearly all
if the gems secured in such ways are either
sold to tourists or are sent in small parcels
to the big cities for sale. Nevertheless, it
is true that nearly all of the known verities
of precious stones are produced in this
ccuntry.
More than two centuries ago the tur
quoise mines of New Mexico were industri
ously worked by the Indians. Tnere and
elsewhere the unturtored aborigines made
arrow and spear points of rock crystal,
smoky quarts, agate, jasper, obsidian and
opalizod wood, home of the most beauti
ful of these implements of warfare and the
chase are now used for ornaments by white
people. A few gems of really great price
have been found from time to time iu
various parts of the union, although most
ut-wspapor reports of such discoveries have
been mistaken or much exaggerated. The
"Blue Ridge sapphire,” or “Georgia mar
ble,” as it was called, found in 1883 in a
mountain brook, was estimated to be worth
(50,000 by two jewelers who examined it.
Unfortunately it proved subsequently to be
merely a piece of rolled blue bottling glass,
of which fact its owner could be con
vinced only when ho saw a platinum wire
coated with a portion of it melted.
Another wonder was a nine-ounce eme
rald, plowed up near Gibsonville, N. C.,
which was shown by a magnifying glass to
contain many small diamonds. Its value
was supposed to be enormous, so that its
finder, believing that he possessed the larg
est gem of the kind in the world, carried it
to New York, being afraid to intrust so
great a fortune to an express company.
His prize proved to be a greenish quartz
crystal with small liquid cavities in it.
Five dollars was about its worth. The
“Wetumpka ruby,” from Elmore county,
Alabama, weighed six ounces, and was ap
praised at a vast sum. However, a small
fragment sent to New York proved it to be
oiiiv a garnet. A quartz crystal picked up
near Danbury, N. C., was believed at first
to he a genuine diatnond, its value being
estimated by local jewelers at $7,000.
WHERE DIAMONDS ARK FOUND.
Diamonds are found along the eastern
slope of the Alleghanies from Virginia to
Georgia, and also in Northern California
and in Southern Oregon, but there are not
enough of them of size to pay for mining.
The most valuable stone of this description
ever discovered iu this country was the
well-known “Dewey diamond,” which was
first seen glistening in a shovelful of earth
dug by a laborer engaged in grading
a street at Manchester, Va. It
weighed nearly 24 carats in the
rough, but had a large flaw
on one side. One of the most remarkable
frauds ever conceived and executed was
the famous Arizona diamond swindle of
twenty years ago. About that time fab
ulous stories were circulated regarding
the mineral richness of New Mexico and
Arizona, and many companies were organ
ized to collect the diamonds, rubies, sap
phires, emeralds and other gems whiah
were said to abound there. In 1870 it was
represented in San Francisco that two men
named Arnold and Slack had found dia
monds and other precious stones in great
quantities in Arizona. Among some of
the objects shown in confirmation
were 18,000 carats of so-called rubies and a
large number of diamonds, one of 108 carats
weight. The gems were displayed to in
vestors in a scheme for exploiting the region
and were deposited in the Bank of Califor
nia for safe keeping. Heavy capitalists
became deeply interested, and finally a
party representing the investors and accom
panied by experts of their own sele-tton
Parted out prospecting. Upon reaching
the mountain to which they were guided
every one picked up gems, and enthusiasm
arose to a pitch corresponding. In a week
1,000 carats of diamonds and 6,000
carats of rubies were gathered.
Luckily Ciareuco King, director
of the geological survey, there
upon made an expedition to the fields, the
result of Which was an exposure of the
affair. His investigations proved that the
whole business was a humbug, that the
mines had been “salted” beforehand, that
the supposed rubies were ordinary garnets,
and that the 108-carat diamond was a piece
of quartz. It was ascertained that the
swindlers had purchased large quantities of
rough diamonds of small value m Loudon
for the purpose of scattering them about.
So well was the fraud planned that its pro
moters realized $750,000. At present 95 per
cent, of all the diamonds produced in the
world are obtained from the Kimberly
miueß in South Africa.
TURQUOISE IN LARGE QUANTITIES.
Turquoise is found iu large quantities in
New Mexico, and also in Arizona, Nevada
and Colorado. It is quarried out of the
rocks, through which it runs in blue veins,
with now and then concretions called nug
gets, which sometimes afford stones of
value. Mount Chalchihuitl, twenty miles
from Santa Fe, is largely undermined with
ancient Indian workings for this mineral.
In the so-called “Wonder Caves” recently
discovered there, which wore oxoavated by
the natives of old, are to be seen mauy veins
of turquoise two inohes in thickness running
through the gold-bearing quartz which
forms the walls. The deposits are only
worked in a desultory wav at present by resi
dents in that vicinity, chiefly Indians, who
gnud such specimens as they obtain into
rude shapes and sell them at the rate of 25
cents for the contents of a mouth, where
they usually carry them. Skulls encrusted
with torquoises are sometimes found in that
part of the oountry, such objects having
been held sacred by the Mexicans of former
days.’,
The finest garnets in the United States
are found in New Mexico, Arizona and
southern Colorado, where they are often
called rubies. Such of them as are discov
ered in New Mexico are picked up oa the
Navajo reservation, where the Indiana col
lect them on ant hills and near the excava
tions made by scorpions. Both scorpions
and ants bring them to the surface, when
they find the stones obstructing their un
derground galleries and chambers. Gems

beauty sometimes bring SSO each,
though tboy rarely exceed three carats

."omo beautiful b3-yl.>—the emerald is a
variety of beryl—have beou secured in the j
neighborhood of Haddam, Conn,, and the
hugest beryls in the world are obtained
at Grafton and Aeworth, N. I’.
From the former locality a crystal ov r
six feet long was quarried, and anoth' r
weighing 2/-$ tons. These wonderful cry
tals are of a pale green color. Such speci- I
mens rarely have transparent spots so largo <
ss to allow the cutting of oven a small gem.
Aquamarine, another sort of beryl, is pien
iiiui in New England. The richest colored
gems of this kind come from Royalston,
Mass. Though small they are almost as
bluo as sapphires. Chrysoberyl is found in
many part 9of Maine, but not of sufficient
transparency to have gem value.
TONS OF ROCK CRYSTAL.
Rock crystal is plentiful iu various locali
ties of the United Stales. A mass of it
weighing fifty-one pounds from North Caro
lina was sent four years ago to Tiffany &
Cos. in New York. The original crystal,
which must have weighed 3KJ pounds, was
unfortunately broken in pieces by the ignor
ant mountain girl who discovered it. One
very useful purpose to which this mineral
substance is put is the manufacture of
mirrors, when it can be found in
big enough blocks to be sawed into
slabs of sufficient size. Its superiority
over glass lies in the fact that it does
not, like giais, detract from the rosiuess
of the complexion. Every pretty woman
should surely have a hand glass of rock
crystal. Near Lake George, in New York
siate, great quantities of s nail and yory
Dure rock crystals are gathered, specimens,
both natural and cut, being mounted in
jewelry and sold to tourists. Many of them
are whiter than any diamond and frequent
ly as brilliant and transparent. A speci
men with a drop of water inclosed will
sometimes sell for as much as S3O. Certain
mines of them at Little Fails, N. Y., are
worked by tapping the rock until a
hollow sound is heard, indicating a
cavity, and within such cavi
ties the crystals are discovered,
sometimes as many as a bushel. In o.e
cavern year-, ago were found several tons of
these quartz crystals, the sides of the cav
ity, thirty feet long and six feet high, being
completely covered with them. The sale of
such stones in that region amounts to fully
SIO,OOO per annum. At Hot Springs, Ark.,
clear roiled pebbles from the Washita river
are sold in quantities, being more highly
prized than the ordinary rock crystals. The
demand for them is so great that the inhab
itants thereabouts have learned to produce
them artificially by putting a number of
crystals iu a box and keeping them revolv
ing for a few days by water power.
PEARL FISHERIES.
The most important marine pearl fishery
in America is carried on in the Gulf of
California, where the true pearl oysters
are plentifully found. Recently the fisher
ies have been let by franchise from the
Mexican government to the Pearl Shell
Company of San Francisco. The beds
were first discovered 309 years ago by
Hernando Cortez when he discovered lower
California. He took possession of them
and sent a number of fine pearls to the
King of Spain. Divers gather the oysters,
and a strict police system is main
tained to guard against theft. After
the bivalves have been opened
and any preoious contents removed the
shells themselves are cleaned and sent to
Liverpool, London and Hamburg, where
they sell at from 10 to 20 cents a pound.
The pearls from this fishery at one time
brought from $150,000 to $200,000 a year,
but the beds have been so overworked that
their value has beeu much diminished. An
enormous pearl, the pride of the Spanish re
galia, weighing 400 grains, was secured
there, as weil as hundreds of other beauties
of g.-oat value. Fresh water pearls are
found in many streams of this coun
try in the shells of mussels called
“unios.” More than SIO,OOO worth of them
wore sent to New York atone time within
three months from Wisoonsiu, one speci
men being sold for SSOO. Nearly two
bushels of unio pearls were dug out of an
ancient Indian mound in the Little Miami
valley half a dozen years ago. They wore
all so much decayed, however, as to be of
no commercial value. It is believed that
ordinarily pearls are formed bv the de
posit of a secretion of the mollusic mound a
particle of sand or other foroign body which
has found lodgment within its shell, but
instances have bt-en known where very
small fishes have got into an oyster and
have been enveloped in a beautiful nacreous
covering, being thus transformed into pearls
themselves.
AN UNPARALLELED CASE.
A California Man With a Largo De
posit of Hair In His Intestines.
From the St. Louis Republic.
San Francisco, Cal., Aug. I.—Dr. K.
D. W ise of Los Angelos has had charge of
one of the most peculiar case 9 recently that
ever came in a physician’s way. Several
weeks ago a man named Keacroft of Comp
ton, Cal., was taken sick. He suffered in
tensely and his case, for a long time, baffled
a number of physicians. His intestines
were obstructed and the strongest medicines
had no effect. At length it was decided
necessary to resort to the knife to save the
man’s life. Tho operation consisted iu cut
ting open the abdominal cavity aud search
ing for the cause of the obstruction.
The result was a discovery believed to he
unparalleled in tho history of operations in
this or any other country. Finding where
the obstruction was situated, its removal
could only bo brought about by slitting
open an intestine, l’he substance felt very
hard, and when opened the astonishment of
physicians can be imagined when they came
ucross a large mass of woman s hair.
The foreign body was removed,
and the wound in the intestine care
fully sewed together. Keacroft rallied at
once, but sank again, and will hardly live,
as six feet of intestines were verging on
gangrene on account of the long stoppage
by the impacted hair. It took only three
quarters of an hour to perform the difficult
task. The switch of hair was two inches in
diameter and about a foot in length. It is
woman’s hair beyond doubt, aud it plugged
the intestine as tightly as a corked bottle.
The strangest part of it all is that one
balf of the hair is black and the other half
blonde. This was another mysterious
feature of the case. All sorts of theories
are afloat to account for tho presence of tho
hair iu the stomach. The medical gentle
men say ho must have swallowed it, as it
was found above the big intestine. The
patient denies ever having swallowed any
hair. This statement made the matter
more intonsely interesting for the doot >rs
who were trying to solve the mystery. Kea
croft has been married twice. His first
wife was a brunette, and was reported to
have jet black hair. Reaoroft took unto
himself a second wife about four months
ago. She has blonde hair.
The supposition is that the switoh of hair
found in the stomach was made up of hair
taken from the locks of both wives of the
patient. This theory is probably correct,
as is also the one that Keacroft swallowed
it as a charm. If he did, the charm will in
all probability cost his Ufa Another theory
under discussion is that Rjacroft was in
duced in conformity with somo fad of the
Christian scientists to gulp down the hair,
which must have weighed all of three
ounces.
Woe to tho Conquered.
The Romans cried “Foe viclis /” “Woe to
the conquered!” at their triumphs. To-day
many of us are being conquered—our peace,
our rest and dally appetite wrested from us by
that invader of tho stomach, dys;>epsia. Succor
we sue for from a hundred sources. Temporary
relief we sometimes obtain. But a hearty meal,
the simplest indiscretion in diet, and the Pro
tean imp returns with redoubled vigor to tor
ment us. A persistent use of the great anti
dyspeptic and regulating tonic. Hostetter s
Stomach Bitters, is best calculated to drive into
permanent banishment every form of indiges
tioD, temporary or chronic. No less efficacious
is it for malaria, biliousness, constipation, rheu
matism. kidney and bladder ailments This
remedy of specific utility and many uses oyer
comes them all. ’Tis a safeguard, too, against
the effects of temperature apt to revive an
attack of “la grippe.”—Ad.

PARIS GRIiEN FOB COWS.
An Attempt to Poison the Whole
Town of Newark, N. Y.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Newark, N. Y., Aug. 2.—Some un
known fiend poisoned the cows of a man
named Stuart, a big milk dealer of this
place, Saturday, by mixing Paris green
with their feed. As soon as it was discov
ered the milk men turned to town on horse
back and informed their oustomers that it
was unsafe to use the milk, as it had been
poisoned.
Iu many cases the warningjeame too late,
for a number of people who Pad drunk
freely f the milk had been made sick, and
Mr. Stuart’s herd of forty-six valuable
Holstein c iws are dying. It was one of iho
finest herds in the state, and one of the
oows already dead was valued at $709.
Four are dead and eight more are dying.
Many of the others will not recover. Mr.
Stuart's loss has reached over $5,000.
It was not until long after the milk had
been served to customers that on one of the
mou going to see if the water was affected
at the spring it was discovered that bran
and cornmeal, mixed with about one-third
of Paris green, had been placed in heaps be
- the paths that the cows followed down
to the watoring place, aud upon careful in
vestigation he found fifteeu or more of the
places and that the meal had nearly all been
eaten.
He found one heap that hadn’t been
touched and, judging from the quantity of
the poison in that there must have been at
least seven pounds of it mixed with the
meal and bran. The community is shosked
beyond description, for had the poison not
been discovered as it was, before the milk
had beeu used, there is no telling how far
the mortality might have extended, as Mr.
Stuart sells a large quantity of milk.
CONTRASTED WOMAN SOCIALISTS.
Louise M'Chel, the Philanthropist, and
Mme, Severlne, the Beauty.
From the New York Tribune.
No greater contrast can be conceived
than that presented by the two leading wo
men socialists of France. The one, Louise
Michel, devoid of the slightest trace either
of beauty or of any kind of feminine at
traction, lives in exile among the poor in
London amid the most squalid and wretched
surroundings.
The other, Mme. Severine, is a woman of
considerable beauty, dainty in domestic
tastes, luxurious iu her comforts and soft
ening by her womanly charms the asperi
ties of anarchy and socialism. She writes
graceful little notes on paper decorated
with a blood-red flag surrounded by a
crown of thorns, and softly purrs doctrines
of plunder aud bloodshed, while Louise
Michel, on the other hand,, growls forth
In surly tones words of kindness and sym
pathy for every kind of human suffering.
