WHAT THE LAW DECIDES.

Jurisdiction of suit by deserted

husband within the territorial iurisdic-
ton of the court to her rights is held,
IN Murray versus Murray (Cal.) 81 l..

A statute giving a deserted wife the
right to prosecute or defend in her hus-

have prosecuted or defended, with the
same powers and rights that he would
have had, is held in Allen versus Min

said to be an irrefutable presumption
OF law that he has cast upon her a del

MAKING REAL DIAMONDS.
European Scientists Have Invented
a Machine That Produces Gems
of Purest Ray.

after reading this article you can be-
gin right off to manufacture diamonds,
and if you are careful they will be just
as brilliant and just as fawless as the
gems produced by mother nature after
1000 years of hard work.
We all know that the raw material for
the fabrication of diamonds exists in
abundance, though the natural means
employed in the manufacture of that
much admired gem are still imperfect
ly understood. 1t is generally conceded,
however, that two of the requisite con-
ditions are high temperature and enor-
nous pressure, and in availing them
selves of these agencies two well-known
chemists, Profs. Moissan and Ma iorana,
have recently arrived atsome encourag-
ing results. In his experiments Prof.
.Moissan mixed some pure iron and char
coal in carbon crucible and placed this
in an electric furnace in which he pro-

the iron rapidly melted and saturated
itself with the carbon. The crucible
was then plunged into cold water, and
as iron increases in volume in passing
from tie liquid to the solid state, an
enormous pressure was produced in the
middle OF the solidifying mass, and on
submitting this to long process of
treatment the carbon was found to have
separated into crystals, forming real
diamonds.
The illustration shows the diamond
apparatus. In the middle of an iron
framework on Ny is tube (P) contain
ing gunpowder, and, on the lower part
a sore of projectile or bullet OBJ to
which was attached small piece of car
bon (JG). This carbon was raised to an
enormous temperature by means of
powerful arc formed between the two
poles c and A. Gunpowder was then
fired by a platinum wire, which the
electric current brought to white heat
at the proper moment. The bullet was
thus projected violently against the
piece of carbon and the requisite pres
sure exerted. When the apparatus is
opened, fine dust is found, which has
all the characteristics of the natural
diamond.

GRAIN FOR HORSES.
the Proportions in which to
Feed Them.

Prof. Thomas Shaw, of the Minnesota
experiment station, writes on the value
OF corn, oats and bran for horses, and
says the proportions of corn and oats
which are best for working horses will
depend somewhat upon the nature of
the work, and somewhat on the season
OF the year. The harder the honse is be-
1ng worked, it would be correct to say,
l'he larger the proportion of corn that
may be given to him, and the colder the
weather, the more corn, relatively, he

LIFE IN THE COUNTRY.
Free Rural Mail Delivery Would
Add to Its Comforts.

Residents of the country desire to
see the rural districts placed in every
practicable way on an equality with the
city, and city jewellers are gradually
learning that the whole land would be
materially benefited in many ways if
this end were attained. The improve
ment of highways by state aid is long
step in the right direction, and makes
possible the introduction of other fea-
lures calculated to ameliorate condi-
tons and bring the back country dis
tricts into closer touch with the world
Easy means of communication, more
rapid transit, the electric car every
where crossing the land, free rural pos
tai delivery, and some plan for naming
roads and numbering houses so that
the farm house may be as readily To-
Gated as the city house, are among the
Improvements that the near future
ought to bring.
A plan for the last-named purpose is
being pressed by the California Cultiva-
tor. All roads, beginning at the county
seat or end nearest, are divided into sec
tons of one mile each, and each mile
INTO ten blocks, with an odd number for
one side and an even one for the other.
The houses on each block are desig-
mated by the block number, with a dis
tinguishing letter following it. This
locates every house and tells how far it
is from the beginning of the road To
hnd block 436, divide by two las blocks
and are opposite each other),
getting 21S, and then divide by ten Gas
there are ten blocks to the mile), and it
Will be plain that block 436 is 21.s miles
from the beginning of the road. The
adoption of this plan, the Cultivator
thinks. would pave the way for speedy
enforcement of a rural free delivery of
mails.-L. A. w. Bulletin.

A REPRESENTATIVE PIRATE,
Capt. Kidd Was Utterly without Amy
Sense of Honor and His Name
Became a Terror

1t Is said that Kidd showed no re-
pentance when he was tried, but in
sisted that he was the victim of ma,
Hcious persons who swore falsely
against him. And yet more thorough
ly dishonest rascal never sailed under
the black flag. In the guise of an ac-
credited officer of the government, he
committed the crimes he was sent out
to suppress; he deceived his men; he
robbed and misused his fellow-country
men and his friends; and he even de-
scended to the meanness of cheating
and despoiling the natives of the West
Indian islands with whom he traded
plying pirates with food and other ne
cessaries, and they always found their
rough customers entirely honest and
willing to pay for what they received,
for as the pirates made practice of
stopping at certain points for supplies,
they wished. of course, to be on good
terms with those who furnished them.
But Kidd had no ideas of honor toward
people of high or low degree. He would
trade with the natives as if he intended
to treat them fairly and pay for all he
got, but when the time came for him
to depart and he was ready to weigh an
chor, he would seize all the commodi-
ties he could lay his hands on, and with
out paying copper to the distressed
and indignant Indians he would gayly
sail away, his black flag Haunting de-
risively in the wind.
But although in reality Capt. Kidd
was no hero, he has been known for
century and more as the great Amer
lean pirate, and his name has been rep
resentative of piracy ever since. Years
after he had been hung, when people
heard that a vessel with black flag
or one which looked black in the dis.
tance-fying from its rigging had been
seen, they forgot that the famous pirate
was dead, and imagined that Capt. Kidd
was visiting their part of the coast in
order that he might find a good place to
bury some treasure which it was no
longer safe for him to carry about
