Head The Illustrated Bee First Nebraska liishops (Continued from Page Four.) portant sect. Bishop Newman nad been the chaplain of the house of representatives and had been the close friend and confidant of the strong men who had carried the civil war to a successful conclusion. His abili ties had been seen and long known to the men of affairs in every walk of life, and when he said that Omaha should be the city to entertain the general conference of the church the thing was all but ac complished. A person intimately con nected with him In this movement said: "Bishop Newman displayed business ability and aggressive tact in tUe matter which Is seldom found In the ranks of the clergy He proved himself not only a good bishop but an intelligent man of affairs, one who could take a broad view of life and who was net bound by the narrownesa often found among preachers." The biBhops of the Methodist church are confined to no diocese; they are known by the name of the community In which they reside, not that in which they most often serve, so while Bishop Newman was bishop of, or rather In Nebraska, his field of labor included the entire world, even as Bishop McCabe, now resident of Omaha, is devoting his time to South America and other foreign lands. But there Is some thing about the presence of a bishop as a resident of a community which calls for more united effort on the part of the mem bers of the church, and while Bishop New man was of;en absent from the state his residence In this state was coincident with the time of the greatest activity in the work of the thurch In the city and state, much of which was due to the encourage ment given by him, by his presence and advice. Every important church in the city was either established or rebuilt during his term In Omaha, and the accessions to the church were numbered by the hundreds. With all of his activity and business he was one of the most approachable men In the house of bishops and was one who had ever a word of encouragement and cheer for all with whom he came In contact. Cutting Diamonds That even diamonds may be subject to changes and styles Is evident from an en tirely new form of cutting which has Just been patented in the United States and Eu rope by one of the largest cutters and Im porters of diamonds In this country. This new form is known as the twentieth cen tury cutting, eays the Jewelers' Circular, and differs materially from and Is an im provement on both the round and cushion shaped brilliant. In which form diamonds have been cut for many centuries. , The present round brilliant was a decided improvement on the cushion shape which preceded It, but for the Improvement the cutter had to pay considerably In the extra or waste loss from the rough stone. The new twentieth century is as great an Im provement over the brilliant as the brilliant wae over the cushion shape, but there is a compensating Increase both In the cost of the cutting and In the grade of the diamond from which it la to be cut. The brilliant, which has been used for the past twenty-five years, as is well known, has fifty-six facets; the "table," or round, flat top, thirty-two facets on the top, an1 the "culet," or point, has twenty-four facets at the back. The twentieth century cutting has eighty facets and planes, forty of each, and has no "table" or "culet." One of the defects which the inventor found in the brilliant, ns now cut. Is thai the "table" at the top, while reflecting light to some extent, does not scintillate, but leaves a view of the facets and the culet frcm above. The larger the diamond the larger the "table," and there Is cor responding difference between the flash of the facets at the side and the dull reflec tion of the circle at the center. The newly Invented twentieth century cutting scintillates from every point and increases the brilliancy of the stone by 100 per cent. The Inventor, who has been an expert In diamonds for many years, ha for a long time sought to overcome the lack of scintillation In the "table" of the diamond, and after years of experiment has evolved the present cutting. He went on the principle that nature makes crystals In octagon and octahedron forms and In cutting he has followed as much as pos sible the'natural lines of crystallization. His patent is essentially on a shape formed of two cones, base to base, each cone maJe up of planes and triangles. Looked at from any direction, the triangles and planes scintillate and flash light at all angles, making It impossible to see within the stone. The refractive and re flective power of the stones are both In creased by the new form, the planes in most cases receiving light in the angle of total reflection and flashing It out with full force and without loss. Other pecullai properties of the twentieth century cutting that do not exist in any other form yet discovered are (1) that through the In creased reflection and refraction of the light the stone appears to be at least one- third larger than It actually Is; (2) for the same reason the color Is Intensified so that a white stone looks whiter, a yellow yel lower and a blue bluer, while a third property is increased in "rainbow" tints. due to the Increase in the number of prisms at the edge of the stone. Owing to the intensification of color only the mos; perfect diamonds, such as river stones. Blue Wesseltos. Wens! ton and crystal, can be used with this cutting. r 1 r ' . . IfTT7 I Established 1842.
