pu Maurier as a Raconteur.

OF the so many pleasant things his
friendship consisted of, none was pleas

ular. than this constant beguiled admis-
sion, through his talk, his habits of re-
membranes, his genius for recollection
and evocation, TO the succession of his 9TH

time that was already little the historic
and pathetic past, that one had, at any
rate, for oneself, just somewhat rueful-
" missed, but that he still held, as ic
were, in his disengaged hand. When the
wonder at last came of his putting forth
"Trilby" and it's companions my own
surprise, or that of any intimate, could
shade off into the consciousness of having
always known him rs a story teller and
master of the special touch that those
works were to make triumphant, He had
always, in walks and talks, at dinner, at
supper, at every easy hour and in every
trusted association, been a novelist for his
friends, a delightful producer of Trilbys.

DIDN'T MAKE DIAMONDS.
The Professor Thought He Could, but the
Experiment Failed.

EXPERIMENT. falleu.
Many ambitious alchemists have spent
time and money in the effort TO produce
diamonds, but one, only one, has had the
courage TO come before IN audience and
show how it could be done
Professor Crooke, says the London Mail,
lectured at the Royal institute on dia-
monds. After an exhaustive talk on their
origin no said:
"And now l will make a diamond. {"
He gave instructions to his assistants, and
it seemed to be the easiest thing in the
world "What you have to do" he ex-
planned, "is to liquefy carbon and then
compress 1t, and there are your diamonds. I"
So he placed some pure iron in cruci-
BILE, with little charcoal for sugar, and
put the crucible in an electric furnace.
The highest temperature which scientists
can measure is 5000 degrees, which is so
times hotter than a sweltering summer S
day. In that crucible the heat was be-
yond the limit of accurate measure. The
switch was turned, binding flash of
light filled the room, the apparatus became
Kissing, splitting, DEVILS caldron. The
attendants wore blue spectncles and gloves.
Ladies put up their fans to protect their
eyes from the terrific glare. The furnace
spat out molten metal like the sparks
from squib. The heat was kept in OF
the room would have been unbearable.
Now" said the professor, "the cruel
bic has been in the furnace for five min
utes l shall take out the iron and plunge
1t in cold water The outer skin will con-
tract around the central liquid with q
pressure of from 10 to 90 tons to the inch
Under that pressure the lique1ed carbon
will crystalline, and in fortnight there
will be diamonds"
The cover was removed, the caldron
Missed more furiously than ever, and-and
the professor turned to his audience with
disconsolate look.
