CANADA's DIAMOND FiKLps.


Mines as Rich as Those of South AZ
RIGA, Perhaps, Near Hudsou's BAY.
Somewhere in the far North, south
or Hudson's Bay, lie undiscovered dia-
mond fields as rich as those of South
Africa. At least, this is the assertion
Of Professor w. II. Hobbs In an article
written for the Popular Science
Monthly.
In proof of his remarkable statement
Professor Hobbs has prepared map
which shows within a few hundred
miles where the great diamond belt
may be found
Inc reason of his investigation was
the discovery of the following seven
diamonds in Wisconsin and adjoining
States.
Hasle stone ............... 16 carats
Oregon diamond ..........., carats
Aohlsvile diamond ..... 81 carats
Saukville diamond ........... g carats
burlington diamond .......... 2 carats
"Dowagiac stone" II carats
Milford diamond ........... q carats
These diamonds were picked I'D by
farmers who were ignorant of their
worth. and kept as curios for years be-
fore their true value was discovered.
The Saukville diamond was kept on
the clock shelf of farmhouse for six
teen years before 1t was recognized as
anything but curious bit of bright
quartz.
The Eagle stone" was kept for sew
en- years and then sold to a Milwaukee
jeweler for dollar, neither buyer nor
seller having any idea of it's worth.
Perhaps the strangest fact about
these discoveries that attracted the
attention Of Professor Hobbs was that
the soil in which these seven diamonds
were found was not in any case the
kind from which diamonds could be
produced.
In spite Of all the digging and delv-
ing that followed every discovery no
second stone was ever found.
Professor Hobbs soon discovered
that all these diamonds, besides a
number of smaller ones, had been
found along the ridges of land formed
millions of years ago by the great gla-
ciers that had moved down from the
north.
He at once concluded that the pre-
cious gems had been carried to the
places where they were found by those
moving icefields that are known to
have existed long before there was any
life on this planet.
When at last the glaciers stopped
and melted, the diamonds which they
had carried on their backs were
dropped upon the ground to be dis
covered ages afterward by Wisconsin
farmers.
The important question, therefore, to
be answered Is: At what place did
the glaciers pick up the diamonds?
Professor Hobbs replies by tracing
seven lines northward from the places
where the stones were found, showing
that they come almost to a point jusr
south of Hudson Bay
1.-THE ancestral home of these dia-
monds," says Professor Hobbs. must
be in the wilderness of Canada be-
tween the points where the several
tracks converge upon one another 1t
is by no means improbable that when
the barren territory about Hudson
Bay Is thoroughly explored a region
for profitable diamond mining may be
revealed. New York World

flashed across the road, striking the
wolf with such force as to knock him
from my grasp.
Staggering to my feet, saw the wolf
and old Tlge graphing with each other
in deadly combat
AS they rolled about In the road
neither animal seemed to be gaining
any advantage over his opponent, yet
the wolf was so much the more agile
that l feared he would tire out the
dog and escape.
Catching up my rife from the
ground, was about to interfere, when
a voice cried:

and stood at my side.

Tige had the frst chance at him that
did the killing. Tige's most interested

But there was no need Of using the
musket. While Joe was speaking the
dog had managed to seize his antag-
onist by the throat, and in a moment
or two the struggle was ended.
Joe called off the dog, and carefully
examined the dead wolf. Besides the
marks of T1ge's teeth there were
wounds which Joe said must have been
made the night before by the squires
collie.
We slung the wolf across a pole and
carried him from the swamp. A group
of men loitered about the sheep pas
ture, among them being the tall figure
Of Squire Fenton. They watched US
and our burden with curiosity.
When we were near the spot where
we first discovered the VOLTS track in
the ditch Joe halted and shouted to the
men to come forward.
When they had reached US. he point
ed out the large track made the night
previous in the ditch. Then close to
this track In the soft earth he made an
impression with one of the VOLTS
paws,
The two feet were exactly alike.
He then called Tige into the ditch.
The dogs tracks was fully a third

and put roll OF bank notes into Joe's

BARBER S COURT.

An unusual case was that of NJ. II.
Boren, of this county, against NJ. V.
Bynum, of Graves county, which was
dismissed in Justice Bsrber's court
Yesterday afternoon. 1t seems Boren's
sons traded Bynum horse and So for
a mule. The trade did not suit their
father, who owned the horse, and he
filed suit before Justice Gholson for
recovery of the horse. One objected
to Justice Gholson trying the case and
it was taken before Justice Young,
who did not suit the other one. They
finally agreed on Justice Barber, who
yesterday had to dismiss the case as
there WAS defect in the papers. The
two litigants then got together and
sgreed to settle their differences by
swapping baoK" which they did.
The value of the horse and mule to.
gether was $50. snd the amount of
attorneys fees and court costs INCUR
ed by both is 500. TO say nothing of
the So paid to boot when the trade
was made, which is to be retained by
