Tho Benson of 1001 wna a prosperous one on tho Stnte cnnnis, nccordlng to tho report of Colonel .Tohn N. I'nr- trldge, former Superintendent of Pub¬ lic Works. The report says that the early settlement of the policy of the Stnte fownrd the canals will have the effect nf causing the owners of boats to make their plans accordingly. One of the great drawbacks of the season just closed wns the lack of bonis. He believes the increase In tonnage of 74.- 072 tons this year over th^ preceding years, in aplte of adver8<r><)ndltlons nnd without Improved traffic facilities, should appeal to the Legislature lis a very strong nrgument having a direct hearing on Ihe subject of the future of the cnnnis. He believes there are good prospects of nu Increase In through nnd way Western tonnage next se.nson. nnd thlnk.'< sume of It will come from Ihe Champialu ore regions.

And you've nearly burst with an un- yawned yawn.

Or you've none, nerchance. to dine in state. Some new-fnuiHi Webster lo hoar oi-ale. You're  poundcil   tiic  lablo and  said  "tJo

SMALL  ROOMS   IN   NEW   HOTELS.
Kverr Inch of Space Vtlllied lu Order to Meet   Ex|>enaes.
"The evolullou In hotels duriug the pnst few years has been Interesting," said Mr. Cliurlcs Logan, of Now York, who Is lu town for a few dnys. "Of course, the most notlcenhlo fentures aro tho oxtenslve luodorn Improve¬ meuts. such ns liaths, wnshstands, tolef.houes, etc., lu each room nud the goiioially liiiproNod equipment of the liulldings. A feature which Is not ho notioealile. liut ouo which fs very Im- portant to the hntid man. bowevor. Is the deoioaso In the size ot the rooms. Ilotol rooms used to hnve higli ceil¬ ings and were long nnd broad. Now Ihoy are mostly small, with comparn- llvoly   low   ooillngs.   '
"Somollmos I hoar gnosis nsk enoli nilior why llie ro.iiiis aro so small nowadays, and Iliey schloiu bit ou the right roa.son. It is liooanse the cost III' orooling and niierating a hotel Is imioli groator than formerly, while Uio oxtoiit of the patronage Is about Iho .same. It is necessary to make the iooni.s small iu order tliat the same space may  bring bigger returns.
"Take one Mg room which used lo pioiUice. say. Ifl! a day. and it Is uow cut In two. sn as to make the same space produco ?<> or ¥0 11 day. Take llio cnse of your uow hotel Just fin¬ ished bore.

MANUFACTURING   GEMS
SMALL RUBIES   FUSED BY ELECTRIC¬ ITY   INTO   ONE   STONE.
An Inaenlona Freachman Whn Ton Makf a niK Itubf Onl of Srreral—Some ol the Clerrreat Work la I>ono In Iml. lallng Pearla.
Somoiliing of real preaent Interesi III dealers and the public alike Is tbe snoooss which has been achieved In the ii!anufaoture of ruliles. Wblle tbo diamond Is the eomuionly aceepteil synonym for value In a precious stone the ruby, which moots the proper ro iiuiremeiits, is much more vnlunble. When possessing the real pigeon blood color evenly distributed and without Haw, the ruby Is worth from three lo teu times aa much per karat ns the diamond. Thia stone, therefore. Is llie favorite target for Imitation. And. as before slated, it Is In making rubles Ibat the greatest skill bas been shown. Electricity has done much for this art. A F'rencbninn—his Identity Is a scret In the world, nnd as yet he Is knowu only by his works—bns learned to molt up small rubles, or fragments of rubles, and fuse them Into nno stone. Tho product Is not nn linllatlon. It has all tho choinlcnl nnd physical proper- lies of the reni thing. It Is ns hard, has the same specific grnvlty nnd is gouuinely   lionutlful   in   color.
But, s.iy tbe Jewelers. It Is not gen¬ uine. Such n stone Is known to the trade as a "reconstructed" ruby. Jv'oiie but the most expert can disilngulsli It from the so-called real one. The 0011- noisseur will ndmit thnt he distin- guishcK It liy the nbsence of flaws rather thnu by the presenci- of defecls. .V reconstructed ruby Is apt to be too perfect.
Tills reconstructed ruby npponred on the market nbout eighteen months ngo. .VII oanie from one source, a wealthy dealer In Paris. At flrst tbe stones wore 111 grent demand, and snld for Jim a karat: but as the public grad¬ ually loarnoil that the stone was the comliiued result of the work ot nature and ot man. the demand fell off. The buyer felt that tho stone, mnde up of fragmonls fused In an electric furnace, was not Just tho same as the one tnken from the earth, even though the latter might have more Haws, nnd, unless de- loived by tho dealer, he would not (lay as much for It. In cousequonce Iho price has dropped to ^.td a karnt.
The cniernhl is another stone which is cleverly Imltnted. A perfect emernid is the rarest tiling iu the world. It is iharnoteristic of tho emerald to lie llawod, and all good Imlintlons con- lain artiUoial Haws. A flawless ein- irald is Iniiiiodlnlely au object ot siis liicion. The only ones In exislonce hnvo been olilniiied by cutting nway the greater part of some large nnd lieaulifnl stone, leaving onl.v the small part free from defect. This Is a very oxtiavngant mrt'.iod, sluce it Is tho i-nlor by which the emernid Is Judged. The few flawless euiernlds In exist- once aro held nt fabulous prices. The color must lie a drop rich green. Ini- liaiious are made by clicnilcal pro- icsses. aud n good Iniltntlon Is nenrly ;is valualilo ns Iho real. The paste of «iii"li tlio.v are made Is hardened by lioat until It will stand the so-called liio tosi—that Is. it will not be -ornlohed by a hard English flic made Inl- Iho purpose.
.\nollior luiitatloM is known as the 'dnuiilot." It is uiiiiio by a process similar tn venocrUig iu woodwork. A lllill layer nf real slone Is cemeiilcd on in artiHoial base. 'This method, which s piaotlood in I'ranco. Is also employed to mako iniltntlon sapphires aud ni- iiios. Till- vory cheap Imllatlcns nre made of glass.
.><ouie of Ihe clevorest work » done In Imilallug pearls. The beauty of a innrl Is in its slioon. and Its fnce value iloponds on rIiooii. size and color. The ^'iinil artilloial pearl Is now given all ilf lliiso cliaraolorlslios tn n degree iilmnst oiinal to the nno made In the shill lit tho nyster. Even Ihe "nacie." wliloli is the fluid iu the shell of the iiyslor wliloh deposits the calcareous layers of the p.arl. has been repro- ilnood liiomioally. and tho pearls aro |uil iulo a revolving cylinder and kept rolinu- in the iiairo unlll they take on Iho real coming, ronnorly Ihe artl flclal poarl was blown, bin with all the care imssililo this iirocess loft a small mill, whicli markeil It as nrtlflclnl. 80 now liiey are dropped In a lower like shot. The price ot pearls, as of other sioiios. varies In accordance with the iloniand of tho hour .Inst now thoy aro vory high, and the bost Imitations will bring boiler pvi'os lhau tbe poor gonuino ones. Tho Oriental pearl Is supposed to lie the most valuable, but lately very lino frosli water penrls hnvo loon found in Tonnessce nnd Wisionsiii.
The expert dislingulshes Ihe real fioin tho arliflcial preoinus stone in variiius ways. The flio tost ba.s been inolilinnod. Dealers also have n little pjoco of a certnin kiud of liard iiiiarij: tvlilch Is worked lo a polnl. and wblch wil scratoh glass and most imitations. But tho oxpi'rt goes mnst on npponr- anoe.

Washingiou. I>. C.-The Philippine wnr Is mil over- not even In l.uaon. Ou the contrary. It Is uow entering uiiou Its siornest phase. This is shown In General .1. Franklin Bell's orders fnr the prosooullon of Ihe war In Ihc Provluoo of Balnnirns, which is In Southern   l.iiion.
(ieneral Bell orders that In tho Prnvinoes of Batangns and I.rfiguua oiiiiimanding oflicers shall estnbllsh limits siirroundiug ench zoue. within whii-li Iho Inhnbltauts of tho district must i-omo. By Ihe order, which wna Issued I'ocoiiiher v'*, the iieople were civou until Iioeember "J.'i to move Into tho Ilmlls with tholr food supplies. .Vfter llial lime, If tlii<y bad uot moved hilo the roconc(>ntiado limits, their properly wns Unble to couHscatlon or distnietlon.
Ill n supplemental circniar datcHl Iiocomlior It, General Bell declafed "iliat a policy should !» adopted that
will as souu ns iKisslble make the people want pence, nud wnnt It bnd¬ ly." This, lie said, wus because the people, especially tbo wealthy onoa, did not really desire peace, tbougb Ihey preteuded to. "It is an Incvlt- llllle conse(]uencc of war," continued Genernl Boll, "that the Innocent must ;;iiior:illy suffer with tho guilty. Military necessity frequently pre¬ cludes the possibility ot making dli- crlinlnntloUB. It Is necessary to end Ihe war for Ihc good of all, abd there¬ fore Impossible to wage war efllclently and at Ih^ same time do abstract Jus- llee."
General Bell confers U|I0D sub-dla- trlct cominanders the right to take measures "which will contribute to tbe ond in view" without consultlug hliu, "Suliordinnto ooiuninmlers and young olHcorH of exi>erlence,"be snys,"should nnl be restrnlii"il or dlscournged with¬ out excellent i.ason, but should be en- ooiiragod lo hunt for, pursue nnd vig¬ orously oporato ngnlnst nrmed bodies of liisiirgouts wherever they may be found."
He doohires that among munlcipnl oHIoluls and councils will he fuund many who sooretly aid the Insurgents. and that tliey must be disoovered. It Is almost oortnin, he snys. "that Ihe olooiloiis of all lown ottlclals In the I'rnvluee of Balaugas nnd I.agunn have boon dlolnti<il by .Mnlvnr or other liisiirgont leaders."
The lllilll of alleglnnce, (Jcneral Bell doelnres. Is no evidence ot loyalty, and persons taking Ihc oath or otherwise pretending sympathy wllh the Ainerl- cans nre roiilly lu secret con'eapoud- onoe with the rebels. "Neutrnllty," he says, "should not be tolerated. Presidents nnd chiefs of iHiiice who nsslst Ihe rebels must be nrrested. Kvery native priest nml n great nuni- lior of wenllby citizens nre secretly niillug the rebellion. The priests are more dangerous thnn armed Insur- gonta.

.1. "(t«vc heed." Obeyed Peter's direc¬ tion to look, ivhich g»\-e evidence of faith 111 its licginning, according lo hia knotrl- idae.
(I. "Sdver—none." Thia waa after the ea- tales were aold (Acta 3: 4.1). and ahnwa how far the apostlea were Irom enrich- iiiK thennelvea by the trciturcs which iiiisard through their hands. "Kuch na I Imve." With this power from Chriat to liciil, he ncrompliahed far more thnn if Christ had iiasignetl him the revenue of a liinRdoni. "Nasareth." .leaua waa still living nnd performing the same works He lid when in the flesh. Thia title had bean fltlaehed in derision to Jeaua, and in thua using it I'eter enihraced the humiliation nml orosa of Christ in the conditinn of iiealing, an well a^ Hia pou-or nnd glory, "Kise up and walk." The msn felt there was no mockery in the command. Ita ivorils were interpreted to him by the l<»ok and touch of Peter, by the ruiih pf now life through him, and perhaps hy soma uioniory of Jeaua. The command was to do the thing; not merely to try. or to look around for aome mcnna to asaist in walk¬ ing. So God commands the ainner to ra- pent and believe and load a holy lite.
7. "Iiy the right hand." As Jeaua had done with others. Not an much to •trcnglhen hia limba as hia faith. "Lifted ' him up." A sign intininting the aupernat. iiral help he would receive if be exerted himself aa he was commanded.
8. "Into the temple." Ilia first aet waa lo join Ihe worahipera. "Walking," etc. He walked in obedience tn tha command of the apostle; leaped to try the atrenctli of hia liraba, and to be convinced of the cure; praiiiag Ood aa tbe teatimony of the gratitude ae felt. Aa loud in praiaiag Qod aa be had been in begging.
10. "Wonder and amaiement." Stroag rmotion of awe, admiration or aatoniah¬ mcnt. Thoy saw no reason why aaeh an irent should take place in that man's lite, tt his sdrnnred age, for aurely there waa no merit in him now more than before,
11. "HeM Peter and John." He felt Ihe attxingest offertion for them, as tha insti'umenta hy whirh thr divine influenea wua conveyed to his diseRKPil body. "Ran together." To the central point of attrae- tion. On the day of Pentecost, when tho « ;^pirit waa poured out upon the discipiea
in the upper room, the attentioa waa Jrawn fi-oni the temple acrvire ts the dia- .¦iplea; ro uow thr miracle wrought called 'lie nltrntion of all thoac who had entered , Ihc trnipie at tbe hour of prayer. "Porea -Solomon's." Thia porch, 600 feet in length and seventy-five in width, over- huaii the south wall of .Icruaalrni; it waa- jpen Inward the temple, hut cloned by a ^ wall toward the country.
12. "Mi'ii of Israel." Tp whom miracles niiglil not tn be atrangc thing*, having 'icoii wrought for vou, aa a nation, in mu'- lipliril matanrea from age lo age. "Why marvel." Why do you wonder ttt what das nou' happened, when ao much greater niiriiilca have lately heen performed iinoiig yoiiV
1.1. ¦Gild of Abraham." After tho er¬ ror had heen rxpoaed. the truth is set I'nith, as in chapter 2: 15. Peter prearnts in new religion, no new iwwer, hut only tlic workings of the same God who had lone wonders for their anceatora. Tho o;d Tcalameiit Is the type and foundation if the New. "Hath glorified." Not by Ihia miracle only, hut at Hia baptiam and tranafigiiration, by His many mighty ivnrda, by Hia death, resurrection and as- :cn«ion. "Ye dehvcrcd." Like a wiae .ihysioian, Peter probed the wound deep¬ ly. The apostle was addreaaing aome of llie verv people who had clamored for the olood of Christ. "To let Him go." Pilate \nev Jesua was innocent and "had deter¬ mined to release Him" (R. V.), but the Iowa demanded that Hc be crucifled aod I'ilntc yielded to them. . . _    .   ,
14. "Holv One." A title whic* had hcon aniilird to Christ in the Old Testa- inent. Psa. 16: 10. "Just." See Chap. 7: 52; 22: 14. The word "jnat" here meana iniioient. or one who waa free fram erinie. It dcnolea one who atanda upright in the "ve« of the law. "A murderer. Baiab- liaa.    Matt.  27:   21;   Mark   15:   7j   Luke
I.V "Prince of life." The a-ord ren- Icieil prince denotea properly a milltanr eader or roniniander. In Hebrewa 2:10 It is tranalated capUin. "Hath raised, I'hov were fighting againat Ood and eoaW lot hut be ilifeated; Jeaua waa alive from 'ho dead. "Witneaaet." The diteiphw had Men Chriat after Hia rciurrectlOB, inil Ihcy apokc what they knew to be Ihe mull.
1(1. "Ilia name." There was no efficacy in the mere name of Jeaua, Iml the heaUng ivas done hy Hia authority and power. Ill lllin way the word ninie in often uaed liv the Ilehrcwa, eapecially when aneaking >f Coil. See Chaii. 1: 15; 4: 12; jBph. 1: »1; Rev. .1:4. "Through faith.' The eon- looting link between thia deed and ita di¬ vine Author waa their faith. "Perhet .ouiiilneia." Thia word i« not osad else- ivliei-e in the New TeaUnient. It denotaa .laedom from any defect. The cure was a nrrfcet one. "Of you all.' You ara all ivi'iumca ot thia and can judge for yoiir- cr'.vea. If this man ia aound, Jcens is tka tiacu Ueaaiab.
