AC0filTCK, PURE
CHINESE SNAKE STONE.
Cnrioaa Oriental Product Which to Salt Se
Cur PoUoeoo Bite.
Bon R. Spradloy, attache of the St
Louis sanitarium, at 1S3S South Grand
i venue, baa in his possess ion one of the
most curious and what he asserts to be
pne of the most usef ul and valuable of
articles. It is what is known as a Chi
nese snake stone, and there Is said to be
but one other in the country. Indeed
the one in Mr. Spradley'a possession is
but half a one, the original having been
cut in two by Mr. Spradley and half of
it given to a friend. In appearance the
itone looks like a small piece of oblong
shaped cannel coal and is about one
siKlith of. an inch in thickness, three
eighths of an inch wide and half an
inch long. It is aa light in weight as a
piece of cork, possesses a polished sur
face and can be easily cut with a knife.
It is not a stone, in the proper sense of
the word, but is a manufactured article
and is of a porous texture.
To cure snake bites or poisonous
wounds of a similar nature with the
"stone" the wound must first be acari
flod. Then the stone is applied to the
wound. Each morning and evening it
is taken off and put into a glass of luke
warm water to remain a few moments
until it discharges the poison it has ab
sorbed. Then, after the wound has been
washed in a strong solution of salt wa
ter aud again scarified, the stone, which
in the meantime has been rubbed in
warm ashes until dry, is again applied.
If this treatment is kept up for nine
days and the patient abstains during
that time from spirituous liquors a cure
is assured.
"I secured the stone, " said Mr. Sprad
ley, "from my father more than SO years
go. He got it from James J. Parker,
the man who made it From 1874 to
1877 1 was with the party which was put
ting through the Texas Facifio railroad,
and daring that time cured several of
the party who were bitten by rattlers
and other poisonous snakes. I have fre
quently loaned the stone to friends, and
I cut the original in two, giving half of
it to a particular friend of mine. I have
not need the stone for some time, but
am ready to give a test of its merits at
any time.
"It is, you see, not properly a stone,
bat is a manufactured substance of a por
ous nature. The theory possessed by
many that so called 'madstones' are
found in the stomachs of animals is all
nonsense. They are all manufactured in
a manner similar to this, and it ia sim
ply their' 'drawing' powers and their
porousness and consequent capacity for
absorption that renders them valuable.

"We can let you have the bridal

clerk as he rubbed his hands and looked
confidentially across the register at the

"That is very kind of you," replied
the young man as he drew a nervous
flourish beneath the abbreviation "and
wife" and laid down the pen. "But we
contemplate remaining ten days or so,
and yon might need the room. "
"Yon shall not be disturbed, I assure
you," continued the clerk, "and the
apartment is a lovely one. "
"Airy?" asked the young man.
"As to that," and a gleam of intense
pride surmounted the clerk s face, "I
will say that the room contains seven
windows, all opening upon tiny veran
das." Tbe young couple looked at each oth
er. Then the young woman spoke.
"I don't think we shall care for that
room. Ton see, our three children will
be here with their nurse in tbe morning.
They can all climb like goats, and I'm

FAMOUS SINGLE PEARLS.
The Shah of Persia Ha One Deltoate Oaaa
Worth Over Half a Million.
It is not generally appreciated that
there are enormous fortunes in single
pearls, and that a few individuals aud
great potentates have jewels of this sort
which are literally worth a kiug a ran
som. In all the world there is no more
famous pearl than the Tavernior, now in
the possession of the shah of Persia.
This remarkable gem canie to this east
ern king by descent and is a genuinely
remarkable curiosity. It derives its
name from having been sold by the trav
eler Tavernier 200 years ago to the then
ruler of Persia. The price then was
$500,000. It is now worth more than
$650,000.
Another eastern kino, the inian of
Muscat, has in bis collection a pearl
worth 165,000, weighing carats.
Through it the davlicht can be soon.
Princess Yousoupont's finest gem is won
derfully beautiful. Valued at $180,000,
it was first heard of in 1030, when Gear-
gibus of Calais sold it to Philip IV of
Spain. Eighty thousand dollars is the
figure that it is approximated the pope's
pearl would bring. One of Leo s prede
cessors beonmo possessed of it in a man
ner which hits not beeu told, aud it has
descended m regular course to the pres
ent incumbent of St Peter s throne.
This, so far as is known, exhausts the
list of truly celebrated pearls. There
are many remarkable pearl necklaces
whose value is extraordinary. These
necklaces are made up gradually, pearl
after pearl being added to the set, and
leading jewelers are constantly on the
lookout to procure gems of like rarity
to extend the chain. Ou the whole, pink
pearls are not especially valuable, black
ones bringing far higher prices, and
pearls that are white being sought next
after them. Queen Victoria of England
has a necklace of pin pearls that is
worth $80,000, and the dowager em
press of Germany one made of S3 pearls
which would bring easily $1.25,000.
The Rothschild women have, how
ever, gems of this sort that far exceed
in value those of royalty. Baroness Gns-
tave de Rothschild possesses one made
np of five rows of pearls, the whole
chain being valued at $200,000. Bar-
! Adolphe de Rothschild owns
circlet that in all probability would
fetch even at a forced sale $350,000.
Even more brilliant, because it has
seven rows, is tbe necklace of the dow
ager empress of Russia. The gems.
however, are not quite as fine as three
in the Rothschild collection. The cas
ket of this royal lady is the most fa
mous in the world from a gem point of
view. Hardly second to it is that of
tbe empress of Austria, whoso black
pearls are noted throughout Europe for
their extreme beauty and rarity.
What has become of the white pearls
of the Empress Eugenie, sold at the
close of the Franco-Prussian war, has
never been made known. The value of
these was some $60,000, and they were
gathered together in a very beautiful
necklace that frequently graced the
neck of that nnfortunate queen. New

The merchant class of China is com
posed of polite, patient, extremely
shrewd, well dressed pattern shopkeep

isbed and amiable, but the peasantry

As compared with Japan, one feature
of every view is strikingly in favor of
China. Tbe dress and behavior of the
Chinese will not offend Europeans. The
women are modest and dress in a baggy
garment which completely covers them,
In spite of their modesty Chinese
girls do flirt and in proper European
fashion. At church they make eyes at
tbe young men and on the way to school.
The most beautiful women of China
are of Soo-Chow. They are, as a rnle,
prettier than tbe women of Japan.

The Thorough Woman.
Thoroughness would be a good onward
cry for the advancing women I say ad
vancing with emphasis, for really the
advanced women are not on hand in any
considerable number.
To a large extent those who are to be
of value when they arrive are holding
back for good equipment
iney know that men require proper
mental habiliment -for the war of life,
and tbe first rate women who expect to
cope not fight with firs rate men in
tbe struggle of the world realize that
they must be prepared to halt for re
pairs. And thoroughness is a mighty fine
battleax.
Putting on a little veneer and pretend
ing to know never deceives ourselves,
and rarely any one else, save for a very
short time. Life, like love, is a leveler,
and if we live among folks tbey soon
find out just how much we don't know,
and the weak spots in our armor become
the bullseyes for their shafts.

A POPULAR FALLACY,
v IMIIIM
THE IDEA THAT THE OLD SOUTH WAS
NOT PROGRESSIVE.
Cnrrespondi-ut Parke Write of the Pros
perous Day IV-for the War Kandout
Observation at the Atlanta Kspoaltioo
Condition of the Colored llrother.
At this stngo cf progress it seems to
me best to merely unine the mutt novel
features in each department of the At
Inula exposition without attempting any
detailed description. In the Agricul
tural building are represented every
product of our soil south of Mason aud
Dixou'i line and many from other sec
tions. Here one may study the progress
of sugar from the cane to the sugar
bowl, of silk from the worm and leaf to
the reel aud loom, and of cotton front
the boll to sheet and shirt Of agrion)
tural implements the display is rather
of those which ought to be used than of
those which are. I see no specimens of
the clumsy hoes hammered out of old
mill saws, the rope lines and the collars
made of husks and old clothes which
are still common in the south. Arkansas
has the best state exhibit in this build
ing. In the Machinery building Ohio
appears to be a little ahead at present,
though I have as yet found nothing en
tirely new.
Here, as at Chicago, Manufactures and
Liberal Arts was meant to be the de
partment of greatest popular interest,
and Italy seems to have the gieatost dis
play of beautiful articles. From Milan
are hundreds of kinds of ornaments aud
decorations, from Venice a complete
exhibit of the Venetian glassware, and
from elsewhere ceramics, Florentine
mosaics, tortoise shell and ivory goods.
embroideries and laces, and a long array
of statuettes of every size, design and
material. Iu tbe educational section are
many interesting specimens of school
work from every part of the country.
In the Electricity building Indiana
appears to lead. Tho Fort Wayne Elec
tric company, tbe Jenny Electric Motor
company of Indianapolis and the Amer
ican Electrio Telephone company of
Kokomo have taken up large spaces with
fine exhibits. And next, so far as I can
see, in display are Ohio, Massachusetts
and Minnesota.
The Negro building was at first sup
posed to be too small for the many who
wanted space, but exhibitors delayed so
long that the design bade fair to degen
erate into a burlesque, and even now
the hall sometimes appears rather as a
place of fashionable resort for the col
ored, dudes and dudiues of Atlanta than
a place for fcteotific and industrial dis
plays. Despite the rapid progress of 30
years there is still a good deal of what
southerners call "the Jim Crow busi
new" about the untaught negroes. They
seem irresistibly prone to be the clowns
and fnumokers of humanity, and even
the dainty quadroon dude as he trips
along the walk, the admiration of the
black gamin, seems as if he bad "made
np" as a burlesque on tbe white ex
quisite rather than as a dudesui generis.
Perhaps, however, it only seems so to
us by long association of ideas. The
larger part of the space is taken by the
educational institutions, and nearly all
the rest is occupied by food prepara
tious, artistic designs of various sorts

tnd needlework, the display of the last
named being wonderfully varied and
complete, a great credit to the colored
women.
I have asked the colored leaders many
questions about their progress in indus
trial organizations and find the whole
matter in a singularly chaotic state, but
all agree that in Pensacola their people
have done rather the best in that line.
In every part of the south soon after the
war the freedmen seemed moved by a
common impulse to join in leagues and
societies of every sort, and out of the
many hnndreds projected perhaps a doz
en have proved permanent From one
standpoint it was laughable, from an
other most encouraging, for it is the de
velopment of tbe organizing faculty
which does most to make a people great
In addition to the many political leagues
they had the Sons of Reuben, Wrestling
Jacobs, United Brethren of Friendship
and bnrial societies beyond counting.
Almost evtry colored laborer is now a
member of one of the latter, contribut
ing a few cents each week as an insur
ance in his own case, for they have a
healthful horror of a pauper burial and
a delight in what they call a "fittin
funeral. "
In Pensaoola, says the agent represent
ing that place, they have a society for
every important function of social life, a
union for almost every kind of work,
lodges and chapters for all the charities
and many religious and educational
clubs. At one time the colored rousta
bouts there had the wharf aud transship
ment work entirely in their own hands
and made their labor worth $3 or $4 per
day to each during the busy season. The
lowest unit of organization was the
squad, the number of men who could
conveniently work one vessel under one
boss. Tbe bosses were organized in di
visions, and at the head of all was a
committee to regnlate honrs and wages.
Each laborer bad bis ticket to show bis
squad and division, and it was only as a
substitute for a member that an outsider
could get work at all. Tbe strength of
this organization was partially broken
at one time, but I am told that colored
laborers are everywhere struggling to
combine.
At this point I digress long enough
to give a whack to that erroneous idea
so common in the nor tit that the south
and the colored people made no general
industrial progress before the war. It is
among tho most easily proved facts that
in 1860-00 the progress of the south, on
tho whole, was as rapid as it ever has
boon si noo aud iu some things much
more rapid, aud that the surplus labor
aud capital were turning away from ag
riculture. The south is to blame for tho
false impression created by the gush
over tho "new south," for, so far
human wisdom can see, the movement
of 1800-60, maintained without the
check of war, wonld have put this sec
tion far ahead of whore it now is.
The increase of cotton production in
that decade was 110 porceut, which sim
ply couldn't' have oontinned, as it would
have brought a crop of 9,000,000 bales
iu 1870, aud that would have crushed
tbe market nine times as badly as it did
last year. Iu "Uucla Tom's Cabin" St
uiair is made to propound this conun
drum: Suppose something should hap
pen to bring down tho price of cotton at
once and forever, to make it a drug iu
the market, what a flood of light we
should get on slavery, etc. Well, that
is precisely what wonld have happened
had there beeu no war. Tho glut would
have coruo as early as 1870-4, insteud of
1890-4, cotton would have sold at 4 or
6 cents a pound at tho gin, and slaves
wouldn't have beeu worth SO oeula
apieee for cotton raising.
Iu 1850 the south had 8,835 miles of
railroad, and in 1860, 9,807 miles, an
increase of 819 per cent, Iu 1860 tho
south produced nearly half the corn of
theoooutry, -tOiiercentof tho livestock,
three-fourths of the tobacco and nearly
half of several other staples, though it
had little more than a third of the popu
lation. The gain iu sawed and plumxi
lumber was 95 per cent, iu iron produc
tion 85 and iu the manufacture of boil
ers and engines over 200 per cent. But
it is needless to detail. To prove the
case it is only necessary to consider this
question, If the south bad no great man
ufactures, how did she sustain herself
iu a four years' war aud all outside shut
off by a cast iron blockade? These young
southern writers are full of hope and
energy aud enthusiasm, but they must
not forget that there are still a few of
us old fellows who were alive before the
war and saw what was going on. Hor
ace Greeley, in the first chapter of his
'American Conflict," showed that the
United States in 1800 was the greatest
and most prosperous nation on the globe,
and James U. Blaine says the extraor
dinary prosperity of the south at that
time created an excess of confidence
which had much to do with bringing on
tbe war.
But the young south is active aud
vigorous, with an eye for the main
chance and a talent for advertising, aud
this exposition is a splendid monument
to its fervent local pride.
