Prof. Clarke prophesies this week that
dianonds of marketable size viii soon

has manufactured diamonds by melting

There is an advance In silver. copper.
lead and iron. and the advance is appar-
entity gradual and healthy enough to add
fresh stimulus to mining in all the Paci-
fic coast states and territories. where the
business had already commenced to ex-
hihit signs OF Increased life and activity.
The metals that are now feeling the fav-
orable effects of returning prosperity are
those that are usually the first to feel the
decline attending period OF depression.
There is but little doubt that they will
continue TO advance with increasing de-
mand. II Is perfectly safe for miners 10
take this hopeful view Of the situation.
and act accordingly Good mines will not
go begging for purchasers in this coun-
try. and the better they are developed
and opened mp the better they will sell.

The battle between the big guns and
the heavy steel plates has finally culmi-
mated In a stand-off. with the plates, if
anything. a little ahead. The last ;est
was made between the eighteen-inch Har-
veyized steel plate. MANUFACTURED by Car
ngie, and the twelve-inch guns OF the new
American navy. These failed 20 make an
impression. when thirteen-inch gun was
tried. being fired almost point blank, the
projectile, weighing half a ton. penetrat-
ing the plate ten inches and cracking il
slightly but nos materially. The powder
used was made especially for this gun.
and the weight for each discharge was
is9 pounds. the velocity being 1S1o feet
per second. ana the striking energy 25.-
600 foot tons While the plate was slightly
injured. the projectile was pulverized. II
is now the opinion of those who made
the ties, that with the reforgfng process
the plates will be rendered practically In
vulnerable TO any modern projectile.
