Read. m ' —:— the diamond industry. The exhibit of the diamond industi’y of Cr.pe Colony is the attraction f that draws more sightseers than any . other in the Mines Building. The exhibit is one of great interest, in that, the .entire process of getting diamonds is shown. First, there is shofen pictures of the mines and the method of getting out the “blue earth’’ or diamondiferous soil. Then begins the practical part of the show. Th« machines for disintegrating the and dirt, washing it and get*ting the dirt away fi'om the stones is shown, and the big machines are run by Zulus. These savages are dressed in short trousers only. They refuse J to wear anything else, and under these they have their native trousers | if such they can be called. Pi? e LEASING THE DIAMONDS. ( , , The of cleaning the diamonds to prepare them for cutting is shown by skilled workmen, and then the diamonds arc cut and polished. All the processes are carried on in fall view of the audience. Big Jim is the chief Zulu guard. He is a pretty chieftain,and was in the late Zulu war, and has many a man to his credit on the death roll He stands at the main gate armed with a war club with a big ivory head on it, and, it is said, he would not hesitate to brain a man caught entering the place at night. Jim weighs 2B0 pounds, and is over six feet tall, so that he could give Peter Jackson quite an argument. Yesterday Inhere were nearly two dozen diamonds found in the dirt that was worked. Most of them were about one carat iu weight, but one weighed four carats and was pure white. It is worth in the rough about §200. The exhibitors have 1,300 bags of dirt here to handle. The capacity of the machines on exhibition is about ten bags a day. In the front part of the shew there I are rough diamonds shown to the | value of §750,000. They are under a strong guard. The Tiffany, diamond cutters are at work. In this country the workmen do even better work than is done in Amsterdam. They i cut for brilliancy, and in the old j country they cut to save weight. ! Sometimes American diamond cutters recut Amsterdam stones, and j the result is almost always again in j value of the stone. —Chicago Herald. OBITUARY.

Forgotten CIierrleT. We have heard of the man who stole butter and was kept near a hot stove till it melted for him; we have heard of the man who had eggs crushed in his hat; but the lates't one is told by Gus Paetzel on a barber who lives in east Columbus. Gus was visiting his friend last week and they went together to a gardner in Orinoco to purchase some vegetables. The gardener wafe away, and while a little girl went to call him the barber said he would step over to a cherry tree near by' and pick a few cherries for the children. He returned after considerable time with a nice bunch in his hand and his hat well filled. The gardener came and supplied the vegetables needed. Then, they engaged in conversation. Every few minutes the gardenbr would lift his hat and scratch his head by way of enforcing his remarks. The barber became very much interested and presently lifted his hat when, horror! —a perfect shower-bath of chearies poured down over him. It was difficult to say which was ‘the redder the cherries or the man’s face. “Wellwell—well” said the gardener. Presently the barber recovered his speech and stammered out. “I—I—I forgot about them.” To Clean Wall Paper. Scientific American; To clean wall o’* paper: 1.

OBITUARY. On January 2, 1893, the ruthless hand of death entered the home of Wiley Good and claimed their little boy, Leroy Winford as his own. He was a little past three years old. The funeral service took place last Sabbath at the Baptist church in St. Louis Crossing conducted by Rev. W. W. Smith. The innocence, beauty and sweetness of infancy and childhood, the Savior makes typical of those who shall enter into the kingdom of heaven. It would seem that heaven is the rmturaJLsoil of such sweet and tender flowers and it is an honor to have contributed one such plant to the garden of God. They have entered environments more favorable to a perfect development than earth affords. “lit* is gone, our little darling, From our home and car© and love, A llower of earth by God transplanted, To the home of bliss above. Farewell, Winford, sweet thy resting, Calm through all the din of years; Wake* not for tbewail of sorrow, Life is horn to close In tears. “As you upward pass to glory, Leave ajar the pearly gates, Let Us feel through life’s brief journey, There our angel, Winford, walls.” W.
