ANTAREs A MONSTER STAR
No Other Luminary. In the Heavens
Anywhere Near It in
Size.

In the constellation Scorpio, seen,
when visible at all, low down in the
southern sky, is star Of about the
first magnitude called Antares This
object is, according to measurement Of
its parallax by Sir David Gil, enor-
mously sirsant, and must. therefore,
be a 4 1ssal body. One astronomer,
J. q. CO. has computed from photo
metric considerations that its mass Is
probably $4,000 times that Of the sun.
AS a rule the tendency Of astron-
omers is to doubt whether such differ
ences as these figures imply exist
among the celestial orbs. but undoubt-
edly the mass of Antares must be ex-
ceptional. Mr.. Larhn, of the Lowe
observatory, California, points out
that around this great star is a wide
region "about as void Of stars as any
known to the telescopist." Many
starry fields are encountered In the
heavens. "These blackened and waste
areas show no stars. or, II any, they
are on the extreme limit Of vision In
this splendid and pure mountain air.
In these dark expanses no trace Of the
delicate. pearl white, shimmering
background OF the sidereal structure
can be seen. The inference is that all
the matter once in this area has been
drawn in to build up the colossal sun
Antares"
The space has been swept clean. In
the consultations Sagittarius and
Scorpio there exist many black fields,
without either star or nebulous back
grouAd.

DIAMONDS AND POTATO.
Precious Stones Add Nothing to the
Real Wealth of the
World.

The discovery in the Transvaal Of a
diamond valued at $2,500,O0O inspires
NJ. Harduin, ~ LIE Matin, to ask
whether the precious stone represents
new capital, that is, new source OF
wealth.
THE only real capital" he says, "is
that which gives birth to new wealth
directly to the profit Of its owner and
indirectly to the profit Of the commun-
ity. This is what will happen. When
the company owning the diamond sells
It it will receive money. This money
it will invest and lay by the interest.
But since the purchaser. who has part
ed with 50, 100000, win lay by nothing,
it will come the same thing. The
whole operation, therefore, is reduced
to a simple shifting Of capital.
This conclusion follows: Billions
Of dollars worth Of diamonds may be
dug out Of the earth and the wealth Of
the whole human race will not be in
creased by a single cent for this cap
ital does not really exist. And as
nothing is gained in the way OF means
of production. 50 nothing is gained for
the general well being. This is not so
when iron or other metals or coal is
dug from the earth. Far truer is 1t
that the peasant who digs potatoes
does far more fer the welfare of man
kind than the man who discovers a
diamond"
