Making Diamonds.

At lecture recently delivered at the
Royal Institution at London Professor
Cookcs said that the spcculations as to
the probable origin of the diamond
have been greatly forwarded of
late years by improved means of OBJ
tanning high temperatures: and through
the successful experiments of Moissan
microscopic diamonds have been made
in the laboratory. He had provided n
most powerful dynamo. specially made
for the purpose, weighing four and one
II tons, and when driven by Il fifty
to seventy five horse power engine
generating a current in the electrical
furnace of 100 or 500 amperes and sew
enty volts, yielding heat from $500
TO 5000 degrees Centigradc. In the pro-
cess of making diamonds the first neces-
sity was to selectc pure iron and to
pack it in crucible with pure charcoal
from sugar. Half pound of this iron
was then put into the body of the cleo
trio furnace and the are formed close
above it to utilize the electrical cur
rent passing through it. The iron melts
rapidly and saturates itself with the
carbon. After few minutes 1t is heat
ed above 1900 degrees-a temperature
at which the lime of the furnace melts
and yolatilizcs. The current is then
stopped, ana tnc cruclble is plunged
beneath the surface of cold water,
where it is held until it diminishes to
n dull red heat. The sudden cooling sol
idifics the outer layer OF iron and holds
the inner molten mass in n tight grip.
The expansion of the inner liquid in
solidifying produces an enormous pres
sure and the dissolved carbon separates
out into a transparent dense crystalline
form--in fact as diamond. Then com
mences the more tedious part of the
process. the attacking of the metallic
mass of solvents to liberate the dia-
monds. the crystals of graphite oxide.

Young Lovers Die Together.

The little village of Moline, Ohio is
in a fever OF excitement over the shock
ing suicide of Miss Nellie Lusher and
her lover, Edward Cowles. Both are
children of prominent families and
since their childhood have been play
mates OF late their affection ripencd
into love. but as beth were under IS
years of age their parents objected to
their marriage. However, they attend
ed lawn fetc together. and returned
home with Miss Lusher's sister. but
they did not enter the house. The pa
rents became alarmed and instituted a
search but finally concluded the young
couple had eloped. Next day children,
while playing. discovered Nellie's hat
and Cowlcs' coat near large stone
quarry pond. A searching party was
organized and the water in the quarry
pond dragged The remains were
brought to the surface with graphing
hooks. The young man had his arms
about his sweetheart's waist, and it
was with difficulty that they were sep
arated

The alarm was given Immediately, and
in few moments Il well-mounted and
armed posse was in pursuit. Within a
few miles from the town the posse
came up with the fugitives and run
ming fight ensued, which resulted in
one of the robbers surrendering. The
man who was captured is stranger in
the hills. and it is believed he was used
to locate the place and fix all details.
The older men are believed to be the
remnants of the once famous band of
Laughing Sam Carey that nourished
in the Black Hills until 10 years ago,
when they held up the bound
treasure coach of the Wells Fargo Com
pany at Buffalo Gap and were almost
exterminated. They got $4,000 in gold
at that time, and the surviving mem
bers got out OF the country with it.
Several men who saw the escaping rob-
bers the other day declare that the
leader was Carey. None of the men
carried rifles. but all were armed with
heavy revolvers. The men made for
the Bad Lands. They evidently figure
on standing OF the posse or hiding in
some of the many recesses.

the time the robbers entered. three of
whom had pistols in their pockets,
Most of them were men who had lived
on the frontier a long time, and knew
that an effort to draw a revolver would
merely preciptate a fight that might
end in the killing of all those in the
bank. The men worked al the job cool
ly as II they were performing a legiti-
mate transaction. When they were
overtaken by their pursuers they had
discarded their masks and We're count
ing the money. They quickly got their
revolvers into action. and showed by.
the way they used them that they were
old-timers at the business. The bank
has offered n reward of $4,000 for the
robbers dead or alive.

critics, density and hardness are iden.
tlcal with the natural stones. Many
circumstances, he pointed out led to
the conclusion that the diamond of
the chemist and the diamond of the
mine are akin as to origin, and that the
diamond genesis must have taken
place at great depths under enormous
pressure. Molten iron could have held
the carbon in solution. and all the va
rieties of carbon crystals, and even the
different tints of diamonds from vari-
Gus mines and geographical areas could
be accounted for on this theory 1t is
certain. from observations made ut
Kimberley. corroboratcd by the eXpe-
riencc gained in the laboratory that iron
at Il high temperature and under great
pressure will act as the long sought sol
vent for carbon, and will allow it to
crystalline out in the form of diamond
conditions existent at great depths
below the surface of the earth. But it
is also certain, from the evidence af-
fortled by the Arizona and other meteo-
rites. that similar conditions have like
wise existed among bodies in space.

STERILIZATION.

In This Science.

The completeness with which dis
ease germs may be destroyed by the
action of heat IL well known, and
many forms of apparatus have been
devised for use in the convenient
subjecting of food constituents either
to the boiling pot or, in the system of
pasteurizatiOn, to II temperature of 40
degrees c. for a definite period of time.

Smoker and Non-Smokcr.

Advice may be excellent in itself and
yet come with poor grace from the per-
son who offers it. Two men of Mar
seilles were one day walking together
when one of them took out cigar and
proceeded to light 1t.
What do you call that thing?"
asked the other man.
"A Londres." answered the first.

"Only six sous, eh? And how many
years have you smokcd?"
"Thirty"
Thirty years, three cigars day, six
sous apiece Why. if You had not spent
that money for cigars, you could have

The other said nothing. The Can

street in Marseilles. Presently the two

An Evidence OF Insanity,

Mrs. Emily Duncanson of Chino, di-
vorced woman about 45 years of age.
was recently committed to the High
lands insane asylum. Her hobby
seemed to be sentilncntalism. and she
tried to make love to several men at the
hospital 'fhen she was taken before
Judge Oscar for commitment to High
land. They were taking testimony as
to her insanity when she suddenly
asked the gallant inilor, Jesse Case, for
kiss The judge Immediately re-
marked that that was sufficient evil
dence of her insanity for him and the
commitment was made.-San Francisco
