as dark and liquid as the waves beneath.
He was but thirty-six, and looked but
TWENTY-FIVE. He seemed so young, so
athletic and full of grace. But strange
he certainly was. The queerest fancies
possessed him at times, and some of the
strangest ideas found birth in his brain.
The sun was beginning to throw long,
changing lights and shadows across the

De Loache sprang forward and placed

lips were moving and entreating. Sud-

But the strangest. most inexplicable
part of all is this: When they came to

GET RICH QUICK
BY Digging For Radium-There's Lots
of 1t in the United States.
From the Cincinnati ENQUIRER.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer
The United States Geological Survey
will shortly issue a bulletin explaining
| where and under what circumstances
minerals containing radium may be found.
The experts of the survey have examined
5000 different minerals in order to deter
mine just what conditions tend to produce
radium. 1t will appear from this list that
radiferous minerals are found in every
Part of the United States.
| DIR. Day, chief of the Division of Min
| erals, say that radium is found the
east, and, as its market price is some
/ where between $1,000, 600 ad s,7OO0OO0 a
pound, 1t behooves all owners of land
bearing miner deposits to give close atten-
ton to the details of the forthcoming Off
cial circular.
Persons who have the fever of hunting
for radium," said DIR. Day today, ought
to begin their operations by looking for
urnaium minerals. This is rather rare be-
ing one of a group of substances that act
as acid reducing elements like sulphur. IL
Is found principally in material called
pitchblende. This has been located in con-
siderable quantities in Colorado, South Da-
kota and In several other states. / have
always wodered why people who are in
terested In this matter do not search in
blende. The conditions there are Just right
for its occurrence. and / am convinced that
If 1t exists anywhere in the country In
large quantities 1t is in the Black Hills.
The mineral has already been developed
there In small way. but no efforts have
been made to get 1t out on large scale.
I'm Colorado they have found another
mineral containing urnaium. 1t is called
carnotite. Nine. Curie, who with her hus-
band, discovered radium, has established
! the fact that 1t exists in carnotite II is
interesting to know that firm up in Buff
falo got quite a lot of this mineral and
has worked out some ra6cum.
There are two simple experiments that
may be tried. either one OF which will tell
of the presence of urnaium or radium.
One requires the use of rado-responsive
diamond. Diamonds from British Guiana
are particularly good for this purpose. DR..
Kuntz, the New York gem expert, who Is
getting up our circular recently made an
experiment which can be followed by anna
tours. He placed diamond on a half
inch board and brought piece of pitch
blende which was suspected of containing
urnaium against the board on the under
side. The diamond Immediately began to
glow with that peculiar phosphorescent
light which at once revealed the presence
OF the valuable element.
There Is another and more delicate test
1t is to put piece of pitchbende on a

tected from the light. The mineral is !

Won Out.

The Coffeyville Brick Co. has won
its suit against the Dickey people In
the supreme court, and will hold the
gas rights on the Wesley Cole land.
The sympathy of Chanute citizens
was generally with the Dickeys In
this matter, as they had promised to
put In extensive clay works on the
land in question and give employment
to a large number OF men. 1t is not
likely, now, that the clay works will
be put In for time. at least.
1t is unfortunate for the city that
this desirable enterprise could not be
secured. However, II the Dickey q
were right anxious to come, this little
back set need not deter them. There
is abundance OF gas near them that
could be piped in and the loss OF the
gas on this piece Of land is not an
insurmountablc difficulty.
