Berry-Crack Jockeys Arriving for the
Holiday Races.

The information exclusively published
i'll the HERALD, yesterday morning, in
regard to the new baseball deal created
no little excitement in baseball circles.
Some were heard to remark that the
publication was little premature, and
that the matter was not ready to be
made public. However, the baseball
war Is now on. The ball players are
all out for the stuff. The
grounds that pay the biggest div
idend will! catch them. The Apollos play
their last two games at the First street
grounds on Saturday and Sunday. On
Christmas day they open up at the Ath-
letic park with the All Star nine of San
Francisco.
Quite number of horses were worked
out Yesterday. Acclaim was sent half
in 81 seconds. Capstrano and Hercules
reeled off five-eighths in about 1929.
The Rose string was galloped. Quite a
number will be given fast trials on Sat-
urday. Some of the best jockeys in
the state will be here. Little Sullivan
arrived yesterday. He will ride Ac-
claim in the mile race on the opening
day. RAZOR will have the mount for the
Rose string. Roach, Cook, Mcintosh
and Clifford are now at the track. Han
cock and another rider will be in IRON

Mexican Bonanzas.

Durango and Chihuahua are among
the better known of the mineral regions
of the Mexican States, and they are both
being worked with great profit. Tho
mine being operated by Boss Shepard is
said to be turning out $4,000 month,
and it has turned out $500, ,000, 900 in the
past. The same State has another dis
trict which has yielded $50, ,000, 900 of sill
yer, and there is mine near the city of
chihuahua which produced SIC, 600, 900 a
year for 30 years. There are a number of
Pittsburg men who are working the Dur
ango mines, and capitalists from Denver
and Kansas City are investing here. The
Candelaria mine in Durango has yielded
about $50, 600, 600, and there are a num-
ber of old mines which are being re.
claimed in this district. The State OF
Coahuila, which adjoins Texas on the
north and which is bounded on the east
by chihuahua and Durango, is another
good mining region. 1t has two mines
which average more than 1914 per ton,
and the Santa Rosa mine has produced as
high as S., 900 ton. An American COM
pany is working the Santa Gertrudis
mine, and this has produced as high as
$l,6S0 ton. This same State has coal
fields which G. p. Huntington's Mexi-
can road now taps, and a new railroad
will shortly be built, am told, by him
through this State to Monte Rey. The
State Of Jalisco is another rich mining
country, and am told that tin mines have
lately been discovered here. There is
said to be a tin mountain in this State
which averages 55 per cent of pure tin,
and with the rudest of methods they are
taking out about 900 pounds day. The
mines are about 100 miles from a rail
road, but the tin is so pure that they are
liable TO come into competition with the

Stories Of diamonds shining in the dark
have always been familiar, but few per
sons have ever seen this mysterious light
of the king Of gems. Lately Mr.. George
F. Kunz, the New York expert in pre-
cious stones, has discovered not only that
diamonds really do shine in the dark, but
that this property may be used as test
of the genuinenees OF diamond.
In order to make the gem shine IL must
be rubbed on wood, cloth, or metal. Some
diamonds exhibit light after having been
exposed IN the sunshine, or TO strong
electric illumination, and since all are
not thus affected, It was formerly. sup
posed that the property belonged only to
particular diamonds.
Mr.. Kunz. however, finds that all
diamonds, of every grade as TO color. pos
sess this phosphorescent power, while
other kinds Of precious stones lack il.
Itis accordingly possible to ten whether
q gem IS really diamond OF not by OBJ
serving whether il can be made to emit
light in the dark. The cause Of the phos
phorescence Of the diamond remains to
be explained.

They Have the Same Power Of Grasp
ing as Chimpanxee.
~How many people have ever taken
notice of a baby's foot, except to admire
its pinkness and prettiness2~ said well
know scientist to Washington Star
reporter. "And yet to the anatomist it
is a revelation.
Take, for example. the tootsies of a
child of 10 months that has never walked
nor stood alone. IL has a power of
grasping to some extent and is used in-
stinctively like hand.
~The great toe has certain independ-
ent working, like a thumb, and the
wrinkles of the sole resemble those of the
palm. These markings almost entirely
disappear after the pedal extremity has
come to be employed for purposes of sup
port and locomotion.
@The hands and feet of human being
are strikingly like those of the chimpan-
zee in conformation, while the gorilla's
resemblance to man in these respects are
even more remarkable.
THE higher apes have been classified
as quadrumana,' or four handed be-
cause VHelf nluu IeeJ are mana snapeus
but this designation is very improperly
applied, because the apes posterior ex-
tremities are not really hands at all.
"They merely look like hands at the
first glance, whereas, in fact, they are
but feet adapted for climbing. The big
toes can not be opposed to the other
toes as thumbs are to the fingers, but
simply act pincerwise for the purpose of
grasping.
Now, funnily enough. the infants
feet have this same power of grasping
pincer fashion, and the action is per-
formed in precisely the same way.
Advocates of evolutionary theories
take this to signify that the human foot
was originally utilized for climbing trees
also before the species was SO highly de-
veloped as it is now. Also they assert
that the fact that the art of walk1ngerect is
learned by the child with such difficulty
proves that the race has only acquired il
recently"

Reproduction OF Bacteria.


Science has done much to lay the ghosts
that have walked the earth from times
immemorial. IL has scattered darkness
once fearfully felt, even by the learned; /;
and has brought within the domain of the
natural much that formerly seemed to
belong to the realm of the supernatural.
But science has sometimes increased
human fears, at least for time, by re-
vealing dangers before unperceived. Not
