The amount of bogus jewelry sole
every year ID Kiuisas City nmuilng
and It la equally nurprlslug how many
people who dross well and live well
ntid who really have no other vulgar !
ty about them , indulge In this sort o
thing.
Thla morning an Evening Star reporter
porter dropped Into a Main .street jewelry
olry houeo to got his 10 carat dlamoni
pin cleaned and aomo moro tinfoil pu
on the back of It , fell into convorsn
tlon with the proprietor on thjj anb
ject , and pumped aomo Intoroatli

MBTALIO JEWKUlY
sold uow-n-daya in no moro than rolled
plate , and hardly that proportion o :
atones nro genuine. There used to be
tliuo when a well turned hunting case
watch was snro to bo solid gold one

the chronometers of to-day are vorj
different uffiirs , 01 ooureo there it
an oocaalonal 18-carat , Howard movement
mont tlmo-pleco that will bo Bold foi
a few hundred , but there la hardly i
jewelry houeo in the city that can nol
inrnish a clooo imitation almost a fat
almilo for about twenty-five.
An Evening Star reporter wai
shown 0110 that coat jnat $22 50 and
was a clever affair , The case was ol
the
FASllIONAllLK 1101 I'AITEUN ,
the engraving needed cloao inspeotlor
to reveal the fact that it was done 01
a lathe , and across the face wai
stamped in tiny letters "Eglln move

to never bo dntooted and at the name
tlmo avoid copyright laws , just oo the
makers of tin pan pianos paint "Stern
" worthless instrn
way" across those <
moms. Tbo metal of this artlstli
fraud is " 5-carat gold , " which it It
aafo to say is very highly adulterated
with the precious metal , and thot
given a heavy electro plate.
An exact duplicate of a
$50 CHAIN
can bo procured for this for the triflinc
nm of 90 cents and the $8 a week

the way from $5 to $15. Ohataillnoi
of rolled plato are to bo had at the
latter figure and oven three or fou :
dollars cheaper.
Those , however , are of the botto
class of bogus jewelry. If wear is ni
object at all , $5 will buy a gorgeoni
chronometer of "alnminlniu gold,1
sometimes called
"MILTON GOLD. "

Mm. Wright had occasion about 8

water closet opened toward the insldo.

lu would rather die than livo. I have
noticed a tondeuuy to insanity foi

lercditary. I had no hope of his ro
covory. Dr. Livingston , Will Wise

Mrs. Wright testified that oho hac

ind the doctor told him "No , " where
upon he replied that if ho conldn'l
get well ho would rather be dead.
Dr. Hall corroborated the testimony
f Dr. Livingston In regard to the
wound.
The testimony of Will Wise , P. L
