his college career. Shortly after this
time he committed what is an unpar-

the masonic order. Masonry was pro-

DIR. Daniel Draper, in charge of the
meteorological bureau in Central park,
said the records did not show that any
sudden drop in temperature occurred
early in the morning. But he said
ut is a well-known fact that the cold
est period is usually at sunrise. This
is caused by the evaporation OF mois-
ture occurring when the heat first
strikes the earth"
The highest temperatures for the
year correspond with abundant sun
spots and the least humidity, and the
maximum temperatures with scarcity
of sun spots and great humidity. Such
is the conclusion reached by NJ. Camille
Flammarion after many years OF OBJ
servation. He also believes that the
character of the years temperature is
indicated by the temperatures OF March
and April.

played their lives as they staked their
dollars, and it was their pride not to
finch when the game went against
them. The chief characteristic of the
trapper was the iron nerve that never
failed. the presence of mind that never
deserted him. Such as he was, he was
always equal to himself, and was at
his best in moments of imminent peril
What gave him superiority over the In.
dian was his swift determination in ex.
treme difficulties, which seemed, in.
deed, to sharpen his faculties to the
utmost. Absolutely indifferent to para.
lying superstitions, he doubled the
Indian sagacity and craft, with infinite

prompt to seize opportunities which
the red braves let slip. Embodying the
hardihood and dauntless perseverance,

war and the Price of Diamonds.

One of the most remarkable results of
the recent Hispano-American warts the
largely increased demand for diamonds
in America. Patriotic jubiIation in the
male bosom manifests itself in great
variety of ways, sparkling through
Pommery or taking rich blood hue
from fruity port. The ladies, however,
rejoice in brilliants. So great has been
the demand for diamonds during the
last few months that an appreciation of
at least 20 per cent. has taken place
in the price paid by the public South
