LAKE IN AFRICAN MOUNTAIN.
Explorer circumnavigates the Entire
Sheet of Water


 At meeting of the Royal Geograph- ieal society in London an interesting report by Pou1ett Weatherley on Lake Bangweulu, in central Africa, was read. The explorer eircumnavigated the entire sheet of water. His party reached the lake il August, 1896, and established camp at the southeast ern corner, 35765 feet above sea level The shores of the lake are absolutely free from shells and the water has no depth. He sounded in many places, but never found more than fifteen feet. It's surface was usually still, very strong wind raising the smallest sea. It appears to be nothing but a flooded district. Mr. Weatherley thinks it was formed by the water from the great watershed of the Tanganyika plateau The overflow is checked to the west and southwest by a rim of rock, but the east and southeast has no such barrier, and in that direction there is vast swamp from twenty to forty miles in breadth The Iiposoehi and 11uena to the north and the Chambeze to the east are the chief contributors to the water supply. With twenty-five men he explored the island of M ba. Wala, about twenty miles iong and t.000 yards from the shore, and pros ceeded toward the outlet of the Luca. pula, ultimately landing at Ktrul isl- and. After a stay of some time on the island, which they found low, beauti- fully wooded, well peopled and culti- Yated, they passed on to Kisi island. This they found not bit like the island depicted on the maps. It pre- sented a most peaceful, prosperous sight, and in common with the other two islands, Kirui and M'bawala, it reared a good number of sheep-the broad-tailed kind-and goats. The people appeared to live life of com- plete peace and contentment. Proceed ing in northerly direction, the party reached the extreme north-northwest corner of the lake. Continuing their journey along the coast, they discov- cred a narrow peninsula stretching Forth and south, having on the west < sheet of water about three miles in width, which extends the whole length of Bangweulu north and south, but is always separated from the lake by the isthmus. There was cotton every where, but not in large quantity, and the bark-cloth tree abounded.-New York Post.

ORIGIN OF THE DIAMOND.
ks Explained by the Recent Discovery
 in Kimberly.


 in Kimberly.
 The origin of diamonds, which for SO long has been a debated question, appears to be explained by recent discovery near Kimberly. In both the Indian and the Brazilian diamond fields the gem occurs like pebble in certain graYelly strata, but has not been traced back to any rock that gives any indication of it's genesis. After the discovery of diamonds in the river sand on some South African riYe CTS, peculiar material of broWnish- buff color, which turned to dark biuish tint, was found. It became haFder as the miners dug down. The diamonds lay in this material, together with several other minerals, such as garnets. iron ores, augite, o1ivine, etc. Excayations-begun -unsystematieally were eventually carried on on such scale that near Kimberly they have reached depth of more than 1,400 feet. Here the rock is about as hard as ordinary limestone The blue ground is found only in limited areas. The rocks around are of dark shales, banded with hard sandstone, in which sheets or 9ykes or basalt or some ma teria1 which was once in molten con- dition are occasionally found The blue ground fills a sort of shaft of colossal size in these other rocks, and Is itself cut up by similar dikes The opinion of geologists differs us to whether the gems were produced where they now lie or have been formed Of some older rock, which has been shat tered by volcanic explosions. it is thought that the mystery has been at last cleared up. About two years ago the manager of a diamond mine near Kimberly picked up a specimen in which smaller diamonds were appar- ently embedded in a garnet This led to an investigation of various bowl ders, one of wtieh was broken open and was found to contain diamonds. The rock is of the description known to mineralogists as "eelogite." It is apparently composed almost exclusive ly of red garnet rock and rather RCNuAietl 1tSu1 SICCu duSllC. l nS 1ONh Is coarsely crystalline, and in all prob. ability was once like garnet in mott. en condition, the diamond being one of it's original constituents. Experts now tend to the belief that the blue ground" in which diamonds were found is not their true birthplace. The powders are often water-marked, and may have rested for ages in an an- cient gravel at the very bottom of sedi- mentary rocks of the district. In course of time volcanic explosions shattered the rocky floor in whseb the diamonds were embedded, of which the powders were only samples. and dis persed it. togethsr with the overlying materials. It is believed that this is the true explanation of the formation of the dIamond-bearing "blue ground" Boston Herald.

The superlatiye natural grandeur of the scene will be so enhanced that the projectors of the strikingly novel en- 1erprise contend that it's success will make the exposition all event in his sory.

The power for this record making illumination will be all within easy reach. as Niagara will itself hs made to do all the necessary work. This is expected to be largely a spec tacuiar arrangement, but scientists hope to discover something new about the effect of light on water, and make 5 careful study of the chemistry of color. This has been done to some extent with electric fountains, but Niagara will offer an enti5ely new field

CONSUMPTION OF ALMONDS.
Twenty-one Million Pounds Eaten in the
 United States Each Year.


 There are, roughly speaking, 21 ,000.- 900 pounds of almonds consumed in the United States each year, some eaten with raisins, some used f the manu- facture Of candy. some ground for cream and fayoring extracts, and some, of an inferior quality, used for perfumery and soap. The state of Call ifernia produces about 14,000, 900 pounds of almonds in a year, or two- thirds of the amount required for do- nestle consumption, and the other al- monds are imported from European countries, from which, until few years ago, all the almonds were sent. The figures of almond importations for the fiscal year 1898 show importations of about 7,000,000 pounds. Of this amount 4,500,000 came from Spain 1,500,000 from Italy, chiefly Sicily, and the balance from Greece and Portugal CocoanGts to the value of about s609,- GOO year are imported into the UufH.d States from foreign countries ar from countries which were under foreign jurisdiction at the time of the fast an Auol u CGSuly 1SpOlb, 0S1O1S euS Oo~ ginning of the Cuban war for inde- pendence the importation of cocoanuts from Cuba into the United States was to the value of about S200,000 year. With the beginning of the war it de- clined, and under the present tariff the duty on cocoanuts furtnef reduced the importation from Cuba, though large Increase in the shipments of cocoanuts is expected this year under American jurisdiction in Cuba and Porto Rico, The competition of American with for eign cocoanuts, the latter from the West Indies and South American states, has been more active than iI the case of almonds, for the reason that the chief source of supply of American eocoanuts is Florida, which is in closer proximity to the New York market. The annual report of Florida eocoanuts amounts to about 1000 00c pounds, of the value of about $500 900 year, and the conditions as to al- monds and cocoanuts are in this par. tieular reversed. California produces just twice as many almonds as are im~ ported into the United States, whereas Florida produces just one-half as many cocoanuts as are lmported.-Boston Transcript.
