which has aroused their superstitious
ideas.
Father Bill DAILY, Mike Dryer and a
host of heavy plungers are more or less at
fected by such ideas. With many it takes
the form of a marked inclination for the
same seat in the grand stand. If by chance
certain of the talent arrive little late
at the track and find their seats taken by
strangers, they will not place bet all
day, as they believe they have been 30
nahed. The same holds true in regard to
certain books in the ring. Each regular
bettor has his favorite books, while there
are other books which he never placed a
bet with, because he has a superstitious
belief that he could never win bet there.
Women regulars" at the races arc even
more superstiitous than men. They al
ways occupy the same seats, employ the
same messenger boys to place their bets in
the ring, and II they cannot get one of
their regular boys they will not bet at all,
although their lady friends" boy may be
eager to help them out and make his COM
mission.
Among society ladies superstition num-
bers many devotees. They consult astrot
ogers and have become such slaves OF

astrologers and star gazers of all descrip-

Mrs Dunlop Hopkins quite frequently

$40 each time to learn the mysteries of the

q handsome income from this form of

Origin of the Diamond.

pounded to set the matter at rest. The
two most reasonable expositions arc per

that the diamond arises from the opera

hydrogen. By this theory, as he conccives,
we arc best able to account for the cracks
and flaws so often noticed in the gem and
the frequent occurrence of included parti-
Giles of black carbonaceoIis matter.
Baron Liebig, on the other hand, claims
the credit of offering simple explanation
of the probable process which actually
takes place in the formation Of the dia-
mond. His contention is that science can
point to no process capable of accounting
for the origin and production of diamonds,
except the powers of decay. If we sup
pose decay to proceed in q liquid contain

with still moro carbon must be formed
