Diamond. Found in back Yard,.

Saturday Evening Post: Biologists have
just about made up their minds that dla-
monds will never be found In this country
IN any considerable quantities. Every now
and then gem of this kind turns up in
an accidental sort of way in one place
or another, and suggestions of diamond
fields offer themselves to imaginative per-
sons. Why, 1t Is urged, should not the
United States. so rich in almost every-
thing, else. possess this kind of mineral
wealth, hidden away in some unsuspect-
ed locality?
Such a thing is possible, but unlikely.
Geologically, nearly the whole of this
country has been pretty we'll explored,

pect that 1t Will ever rival South Africa

that we produced last year weighed four

Ing morning his side was stiff and sore,
but by the time he had dressed ana
made his way downstairs he had al
most forgotten the wound in the real
1zation of the fact that the Way had
been miraculously opened for him to
reach the gold region
He found the old miner waiting for
him in the smoking room, and as he
entered the latter arose and greeted
him heartily, saying:
Good morning. Scott. How is the
side today? Pretty sore. isn't IL? MY
headpiece is rather tender too. from
the clip l got, but they'll both have
time to heal before the voyage IS over
Come on, let's get good square meal
and then We'll go down to the vessel.
I hope she'll be ready to sail today.

I dare say, for the trip.
After q hearty meal the two mon pro
ceeded to the wharf. and as they
reached the scene of the previous
nights struggle the elder man said,
quietly:
I'm never forget this place as long
as l live. If those rascals had only
dreamed what carried with me they'd
have finished their bloody work and I'd
have been down there
AS he spoke he pointed significantly
toward the icy water In the dock and
then added:
The money was nothing, but
He broke off suddenly end led the
way in silence until they reachd the
vessel, where the captain, a grizZled old

the stevedores to greater efforts.
The Seabird was trim built craft of
about COO tons. The cook was flying
about the deck in his white apron, the
second mate was hard at work below.
and as the two men stepped on board
the captain said, cheerily:
Good morning, Mr.. Avery. We're
about ready, you see. The wind is fair,
and if nothing happens We'll be under
way by dinner time. The mate has
gone back on me and I've sent after
another man..
In few words the miner informed
the old sesldog of his adventure the pre-
cedipg evening. adding:
This is Mr.. Thomas Scott, who saved
my life. If it hadn't been for him you'd
have sailed without me- and now you've
