''Squaw Point is the dignifed and

assigned to them are so designated.
This summer the title is not a mis-

for two weeks, breaking up on the 2sth

The tents Of the ladies look very pref

IN civilization. It will then be nc
only day, but glorious, beautiful
day
1t may be mentioned at this point
that to D. McFarlan Moore, the Ameri-
can electrician, who has done as much
to popularize the use of electric light
as any living man probably, belongs
the credit of having first called the at
tention OF scientists to the impending
change. Tesla has indeed been expert
menting for years, and long ago indi-
Gated the lines along which the trans
formation would be wrought. Mr..
Moore. however, demonstrated why the
near future VIII witness the CONNER
cial adoption of the transmission of
light through tubes, and that electric
ity is to be the agent of this cousum-
nation. 1t is declared by scientists
that while the conversion of heat into
power and power again into the current
known as electricity, seems to have
reached a limit for the present at least,
the matter of producing light from
electricity has hardly begun to be stud
led.
The incandescent lamp is admittedly
the illuminznt of to-day. In spite OF
its conceded advantages, however, the
scientific world has come 70 look upon
IL as a crude continuance for reasons
apart from the humiliating circum-
stance that to extract five per cent. Of
light, ninety-ive per cent. of the con-
stituent elements goes to utter waste.
Therefore, in spite Of the practical
elimination of the factors of heat and
odor from the problem Of dispeling
darkness, scientists have for wears been
at work il an endeavor not so much TO
make new discoveries as TO utilize dis
coveries already made.
Now. what is known as phosphores-
cent, or glow lighting, has come to he
recognized as the source Of untold mil
lions to the capitalist who can first re-
duce it to usrbeta bic commodity in
the cities 81 the world. 50 far the
great cost attending its utilization has
stood in the way OF any such enter
prise. Now comes Mr.. Moore who
makes the assertion in Casters Maya

and SINCE they take no part In any OF
the races. There is. however. one race
gotten up for their benefit after camp

as conscientiOusly as do any of the
men. But though they are thus set
apart, to their credit be it said that
they are Just as enthusiastic over the

Each girl owns her own canoe, which
is always of the open, padding variety,
light and graceful; and though she
obligingly allows her male friend u
launch it for her, you Will often see
her ski1lfully getting it out in the wa
ter herself, when he is not near. The
girls make just as good canOeists as
men, as the secretary Of the asSOcia-
ton, Mr.. George p. Douglass, assured
me. "Why,N said me; 81 had been Civ

were preparing TO start in their

ORIGIN OF THE DIAMOND.
Scientific Theories Accounting for the POI
mation of the Precious stone.

Scientific Theories Accounting for the For
mation Of the Precious stone.
As usual upon disputed points, SPecu-
lation has been busy about the origin
Of the diamond, and large number OF
theories, all more or less probable, have
been propounded 10 set the matter at
rest The two most reasonable expOSi-
tionS are, perhaps. the explanations
put forward by NJ. Parrot and Baros
Licbig. The former scientist, who has
laboriously investigated the perpleNing
subject, is Of the OpinioL that the dia-
mond arises from the epcrstion Of VIC
lent volcanic heat on small particles Of
carbon contained ia the rock. OF on a
substance composed Of large proper
ton Of carbon and smaller quantity
Of hydrogen. BY this theory. as he con
ceives, we are best able 70 account FOR
the cracks and Jaws so often noticed
in the gem. and the frequent occur
renee Of included particles Of black car
bouaceous matter.
Baron LiebiR, on the other hand,
claims the credit OF Offering a simple
explanation OF the probable process
which actually takes place in the for
nation Of the diamond His contention
Is that science can point 20 no process
capable OF accounting for the origin
and production OF diamonds, except tho
powers of decay. II we suppose decay
20 proceed IN liquid containing car
bon and hydrogen, then compound
with stiiimore carbon must be formed.
and II tae compound thus formed were

final result, says this eminent suthori-
u. must be the separation Of arbOn' ia

social and metropolitan distinc-
ton now being striven for by the
Goulds. They wish to rank with the
powers that be in the city precisely as
the AstorS and the NanderbiltS have
succeeded in doing. The social cam
paign in Europe now being prosecuted
SO vigorously is part of the plan of &C
ton determined upon as long ago as
last winter.
The Goulds are certainly spending
their money with unexanpled liberal
ity at the present time. They are liv-
ing up TO every cent Of their fabulous
income, but, of course, are careful
enough not to go beyond 1t. When the
season opens in the autumn they viii
have as guests in New York some of
the best-known people in the aristoc-
racy of Great Britain, The intention
OF abandoning New York as a place of
residence has about been given up, or
rather II viii not be adhered to longer
than the present heated terms contin-
uance. Precisely what has inspired
the sudden eagerness of the Goulds to
become nabobs an fact as well as in
wealth no one appears to know, but
that they are beginning to make a
breach in the Vanderbilt and Astor
citadels abroad there can be no manner
of doubt.
The FanderbiIts are declared to be
particularly displeased with this rivalry
on the part of the Goulds, and England
has been witnessing something in the
way of expenditure this season in view
of the social competition of these Amer
lean millionaires that is proving pos
ttive source Of wonder.
Those interested in such things are
specializing as TO whether the Goulds
or the Vanderbilts will capture the
most aristOcrats for the coming social
season in New York.
