NOME RUBIES IN DEMAND
Nugget Jewelry not In It With the
Blood Red Stones Found
In North.
It is reported from Nome that nug
get chains, nugget pins, Eskimo ivory
ornaments and all the old time decora
tions of Alaskans have now been dis
carded by the people of Seward penin
sula in favor of the blood red rubies
which have recently been discovered
in large quantities near Nome. Men
who never wore jewelry before have
put them on thick just because they
came from “God’s country.’
A man oy the name of Ring is said
to be the first man to find them. Im
mense quantities of them have been
sent east for cutting. They are of a
pretty variety and some of them are
unusually large. The exact location of
the ruby fields has been kept a secret.
It is believed that thelind will eventu
ally develop into an important in
dustry.
