of Richmond, was "passed, as were also
bills to amend the alternative road
law and the law about one raliroa 1
parallelinf another within 10 miles, so
as to exempt suburban electric lines.

of a steering committee, and instruct

the lescutions calling for special or

Absolutely nothing has been done by
the house relative to the disposition ol

Rubies From Chemist's Crucible.
New York. July 30.-In connection
with recent decisions by the general 1
board of appraisers regarding duty
on imitations of precious stones, a
well known Jewelry expert of this city,
through whose hands millions of dol
lars' worth of precious stones have
passed, declares that rubies, beautiful
iu color and rivaling the natural gems,
are today easily produced from tht
chemist's crucible. The secret of theif
production, which, be says, was known
it France years ago, but was kept
a secret, lies in the manier of fusing
a number of small, cheap stones into
a single large one. It is sad the
manufacture ia now being carried on
extensively in several European coun
tries, and only the most experienced
examiner can detect the difference be
tween the real stones and those from
the crucible.
