Diamonds in Meteorites.

Prof. 81. Carvill Lewis exhibited at
the last meeting of the Academy of
Natural Sciences fragment of a mete-
orite containing diamonds, which fell in
Siberia last October. He had extracted
from the specimen two minute oval
bodies, transparent, with slight traces
OF polarization, and having a high in
dex of refraction. Having been able
to scratch sapphire with portions of
the meteorite, he was disposed to
agree with Profs. Latschinof and Jero-
fief, who first examined this meteorite
that it contained microscopic diamonds.
The important bearing of this discovery
upon the question of the origin of the
diamond was dwelt upon. From facts
gathered in Africa, Borneo, New South
Wales, California, and elsewhere, he
had been led to believe that the COM
monly-received notion that itacolumite
is the original matrix of tho diamond is
mistake, and that diamonds really oc-
cur in basic eruptive rocks. The sim
ilarity, both in structure and con- posi-
ton, of the diamond-bearing rock of
South Africa to meteorites was dwelt
upon, and he had, in view of this fact,
some time ago suggested the search for
diamonds in meteorites. DIR. Foote al
luded to the diamond in supposed tia
columite in the British Museum, which
was considered genuine, although the
greater number of such specimens were
undoubtedly fraudulent. - Phi, DEL

Scarcity of Good Saddle-Horses.

II have had many years. experience
as purchaser of saddle horses" re-
marked a major of cavalry, having
been member of horse boards for the
last thirty years, and having bought
cavalry horses for the United States
service I therefore feel that know
whereof I speak when l say that the
supply of good saddle-horses in this
country is smaller than it has been
at any time since the war. do not
mean that there are fewer thorough
breds, for there are probably more,
but horses suitable for other purposes
than races and park use are becoming
rarer every day, and although the price
paid by the government is higher than
it has been for the last twenty years, it
is very difficult to secure mounts for
the cavalry, while ten, or even five
years ago at least, three times as many
horses able to pass the muster were
presented as the advertisements called
for. The horses that were raised in the
country districts of kentucky and Mis-
souri, were splendid animals for all
round use, but now there seems to be
nothing between the weedy, delicate
racer, good for mile dash, but that
would break down in three-days'
forced march, and the heavy animal
that does excellently for wagon or
light artillery use, but it is too slow and
clumsy for the cavalry. Even when
we get horse that has at once bone
and stamina, it is nearly always the
case that he has long back, that
curse of the cavalry horse, for weak
kidneys are inevitably the result after
one seasons campaign. Horse boards
now have to go over the country with
fine-toothed come to find the active,
short-coupled horses that are the best
for service and which used to be found
on every large farm. Unless some
thing is done by the breeders the
splendid saddle-horses for which the
Mississippi valley once was famous will
entirely disappear.

How One Town Avoids Strikes.

The Industrial World tells about
the situation in Olean, N. Y, where an
increase of 25 per cent. in population
has been provided for within the last
three months by additions to its manu-
featuring industries. Through the or
ganized, efforts of Board of Trade
the capitalists have inaugurated novel
movement which not only aids materi
ally in the growth of the place, but
gives such advantages to the laboring
men that the chances for strikes and
kindred troubles are reduced to the
minimum.
Any manufacturer locating in Olean
is guaranteed homes for his employees
built after their own plans, and sup
piled to them at actual value, the ten
ants paying thereon the rental price of
from IS to 50 per month. Thus is left
with the laborer the option of owning
his own home, or of paying rent, the
terms in either instance being the
same, save in the matter Of interest
upon the unpaid portion in case of pur-
chase. This the capitalist takes as his
profit upon the transaction.
In the one instance the man who buys
has his home paid for in a few years !;
in the other the tenant pays in the
same time nearly as much and does not
own single.
In Clean the laboring classes are not
slow to see the advantage of buying;
the manufacturer sees the advantage of
steady and reliable labor thus afforded,
anu the resident capitalist sure pre-
vention of strikes and safe investment
of his money.
The example of the moneyed men of
Olean is worthy the emulation of those
in other towns whose growth is retarded
by the too conservative policy of cap
