The following is an account of q hard fight be.
tween man named Hit and seven foot ALI
gator in Texas. Hit was at work in tau yard.
He went TO work usual in the morning. but
during the night the alligator took possession,
and was in the vat when HIT left off work the
evening before. On arriving at the yard next
morning, Hit entered the vat without discover
ing the intruder and took hold of side of
leather and pulled and tugged, but could not
raise the hide, and called to his to assist him
in raising it, He had not yet discovered the
monster lying on the hide, nearly covered with
a tan ooze. He heard splash behind him, and
thought it was his SON. Not so, however, the
alligator had made hinge at him, but only
caught the seat of his breaches. Thinking his
son had missed his grab, no oawled out to him,
"What the devil are You pulling lat me for

The French publication, La nopa9ason In
dustyfele. publishes description by Caliste Saix,
of his method of producing colorless, colored OF
black diamonds. The system is based on prln'
ciple that when current of chlorine or hydro.
chloric gas passes through cast iron In liquid
state, perchlorde OF echlnride OF iron Is formed,
both OF which vaporize, the carbon contained In
the cast iron remaining in both cases perfectly
intact. because the chlorine cannot directly unite
with it,
The crvstalization of ths carbon is then within
the general rule. for in body which is dissolved
and cagabe OF consolidation, capitalization takes
place each time that the dissolying agent avapo-
rates, the size of the crystals depending always
on the slowness Of the operation.
list. To obtain colorless diamonds, current OF
dry chlorine must be brought to the bottom q
the crucible containing the cast iron oy means OF
q bent tube of china or fire clay NO organic
coloriny matter ressts tbs action of chlorine, so
that perchloride of iron in evaporatlng leaves the
carbo1. to become colorless crystal.
"a When il is desired to give the crystal
bIue c-rcen, pink or yellow tint, it is only neces-
sarv to mix with the cast iron certain metallic
oxides IN sufficient quantity, such as those OF
chromium cobalt and others, or their salts which
will give these colors.
3D.. To obtain black diamonds hydrochloric
gas must be brought to the bottom of the cru
chile IN the same manner rs VI coioI-
less diamonds Protochloride of iron will be
formed which is volatile, but in this case the
carbon will remain black, lin consequence of the
presense OF hydrogen.
This explains the fact of all diamonds having
the same chemical and mineral properties and
why in nature the black diamond is found in the
greatest quantity, because its formation in al
luvial soils requires only the presense Of partic-
ular oxides which are often wanting To obtain
all varieties of diamonds special furnaces are
not necessary; the cruciblss must be covered to
prevent the oxidation of the cast iron, which
might change the carbon in to carbonic oxide, and
diminish, in consequence, the yield of the opera
ton; these crusibles should be provided with
small tube, reaching outside the furnace, which
will enable the chlorides resulting from the re.
action to be gathered. When the liquid cast iron
has been amest completely evaporated out of the
crucibles, the diamonds can be removed without
disturbing the crucibles, and by means of solvents
and cast iron which might be adhoring to them
can be remsred the operation of cutting will
thus be shortened for there will be no more oxi-
died particles to remove, and the crucible will
be ready for fresh operation According to N.
de Saix. one kilogramuIe of cast iron will yield
at least sixty grammes Of diamonds.
The cost price of the coloress diamonds will
be about 2Df. per sixty grammes, which at the
current price would be 10000. The cost of the
black diamonds will be under 81. per sixty gram

One day old Jacob lifted up his eyes

most dramatic, in the Old Testament.
Of all the patriarchs, Joseph was the
noblest. In his perfect character one
can find no flaw. From his boyhood on
