Houses built OF sand, but us substan-
tial and durable rs granite, have been
made possible by process Just perfected
in England by l.. II. Ford OF Greford.
according to the New York World.
Mr.. Ford is we'll known i'll South AZ
RIGA, where before the Boer War he
founded Fordsburg. a suburb Of johann
nesburg, and also the Johannesburg
w~aterworks and the Pretoria electric
Lighting companv.
\ bed of clean sand and ground quick
lime are all the material needed for the
new artificial rock.
The ingredients are mixed III proper
proportions mechanically and forced iy
n screw into n mold formed of a very
strong steel cylinder.
After the mold is filled it is placed in
a box and the air it contains is sucked
out by an air pump. Hot water rushes
into every minute space and sets the
PARTICLES Of lime to Stacking. The lime
SWELL and causes Il great pressure III
the mold, while Mt the same time an in
teEse heat IL produced.
Under the influence Of the heat and
pressure the sand and lime are nodded
into a rock which has 60 per cent ~
much strength ~ the hardest granite,
1t is ready for use in eight hours.
The rocX is oi the same composition rs
the cid Roman cement. the most durable
OF building materials. The secret nf
making the Roman cement has been lost
for ages.
The new building stone costs but %
cents n cubic foot.
The secret Of MIR. iiOrd's success If
said to lie in his use OF a cylindrical
mold. Others who tried to make sill
cate OF lime building stone used square
molds. They did not get nm even distri.
button OF the internal aud external
strains, and the stone produced was full
of cracks.
Brick are produced b, the same pro.
cess Mt Il cOst in England of s2.5O per
thousand, rs against a cost for ordinary
brick OF 81. The process is soon to br
introduced INTO this country.-Gmsa

The statistics below. showing the high
est and the lowest temperature which
man can endure may prove interesting.
To begin with, the difference between
the highest and the lowest limit is es-
tin,ated at $50 degrees Fahrenheit.
French troops in Algiers must FIRE
~ march and mnneuver at n heat OF l22
degrees above zero. \ French professor
has during a stay in the Sahara with u
tribe OF Tuaregs, observed Il heat Of l53
degrees. Attendants in Turkish bath
establishments work ten hours a day in
rooms where the air Is artiticially heated
at l60, 10 and eve Ia l9o degrees
Fahrenheit. A scientific gentleman i'll
Paris not long 6 spent fifteen minutes
in Il hot air room OF the Paris Ilammap,
in which the dry air had beeD heated by
his order until the Thermometer regis
tered 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Issuing
from this room he plunged immediately
into a bath OF about 53 degrees. Il dit.

less than Il minute. Or the other hand,
map will stand greater cold than any of
the other mammals. For instance, the
temperature during tho journey Of
Prince Henry Of Orleans through the
Central Asiatic highlands, where the
party had frequently to withstand "a
temperature Of 40 degrees below zero.
The quicksilver i'll the thermometers had
frozen solidly ar this temperature, and
even the alcohol in the alcohol Their
mometers became thick. Horses nEl
camels died from exposure, while hone
OF the men in the party suffered in tlie
least. Turning to America, Captain
Burn once measured ut Fort Reliance u
temperature OF 40 degrees below zero,
while Captain Dowron, mt Fort Rar,
saw the thermometer down IL Sc
below zero in the month OF April. rLr

have occurred i'll Siberia, where IL tenn
p%erature OF 30 degrees below zero is moi
uncommon, while Mt Werchoiansk II

IL PANAMA JOB.

AS more light is turned up N affairs
on the IstLmus of Panama, the palmer
it becomes to the people that the seces-
sion OF Panama from the Columbian Re.
public was the result OF u conspiracy,
aided and abetted by President Roose-
welt and Secretary Hay, in the interests
Of the Panama Canal Company. The
St. Joseph MOI Gazette, in discussing
this phase OF the matter, says:
1t is well known that DR.. Albert
Shaw, editor of the Review OF Reviews,
is a close personal friend upd contidant
OF President Roosevelt. 1t is known
also that the President is iii the habit Of
making his literary friends the agency
through which the people shall receive
ex cathedra the views OF the Executive
regarding present or future policies OF
the government at Washington.
These facts explain why DR.. Shaw
was u guest OF tho President about
October Goth, aud why the doctor i'm
mediately thereafter wrote an article for
his magazine. which Inns Just been Is
sued, ~forecastinR the exact turn Of
events on the Isthmus, and making an
argumentative explanation in behalf OF
the policy that has beer carried out
there.
Wrote DR.. Shaw:
"Inasmuch as the permanent control
OF Panama by the politicians ut the re.
mote Colombian capital has nov be-
come wholly imPracticable, it may be
assumed that the movement for Panama
independence affords the best solution
OF the situation: 1t would be quite too
much to expect thnt il the merchants,
planters and business men OF Panama
strip should declare their independence,
adopt a suitable constitution and appeal
to the United States for friendship and
protection they would be treated with
disdain."
With the motive ascertained, and the
plot laid bare, the action % this govern
ment in forcing the evacuation of Colon
by Colombian troops mt the point Of the
guns OF the Nashvillc'S blue jackets, and
with the cannon of the war vessel itself
trained menacingly on the city, appears
to have imposed on this government {
responsibility distinctly criminal.
Other powers-notably MIR. Hays iirn
friend, Great Britain-stam aghast a
the swiftness "';'h which tho new
junta was recognized. They marvel n
the unprecedented action Of a might,
republic wrestling from mn inferior siste
republic a part OF its territory to sub
serve It's seltiEh ends md to enrich til,
pockets of a parcel of French investor
in Il financial nightmare.
Ae n territorial grabbing scheme, th'
action OF Mr.. Roosevelt compels the nd
miratIon Of Russia, whose omniverou
appetite for China, and the ruthlessnes
with which it has fed it's mighty NAV
has invited the opprobium OF the civil
lied world.
