In tho interest OF the school efficiency and

DIAMONDS, LIKE
COAL, WILL BURN
Expert Talks About an Inter-
esting Question Regard
ing Gems.
SAN FRANCISCO FIRE CALLS
UP IMPORTANT MATTER
jewelers. Talk About the Des-
tructiOn of Valuable Stones
by Heat.

Can heat destroy diamonds, or VIII
diamonds burn?" was asked of J. T.
Simpson. n dealer in jcwery and
diamonds. now u guest at the Kenyon
hotel The question came up regarding
the reported destruction of gems in the
San Francisco fire. In a general way he
said
That depends largely on what you
mean by burning. If diamonds were In
some home and the house took fire. the
ordinary heat of the burning building
would not burn n diamond have known
a number of instances where Jewels have
been melted into shapeless masses, but
the stones. especially where they were
diamonds. were unhurt.
Gems Will Burn.
But It Is true, nevertheless, that dia-
monds will burn up under a sufficient
degree of heat. and principally because
they arc pure carbon In a crystalizcd con-
ditlon- Various experiments have been
made to test tho action OF heat on dia-
mouds. In a paper by Prof Rose of Ber-
lin published In 1872, he says
What Professor Says.
Before the blowpipe the diamond Is
infusibe, and closely packed In
powdered charcoal II can resist n very
nigh temperature. But when oxygen is
present, II burns slowly al temperature
usually given at about that OF melting
silver, When air is excluded diamonds
exposed TO temperature at which pig
iron melts. or TO the strongest heat pro-
duced in the porcelain kiln, undergo no
change. but at higher temperature, like
that at which bar Iron melts. they begin.
while retaining their form. to be converted
into graphite. When diamonds and
graphite are exposed together TO heat they
act curiously.
Foliated Graphite Harder to Burn.
"Foliated graphite Is far more difficult
to burn than the diamond, but compact
graphite will be consumed more readily.
In current OF air under such heat, the
diamond VIII grow smaller and smaller,
retaining Its brilliancy till It is all burned
away
Another Authority Cited.
Another good authority on the ques-
tion of fuSing diamonds Is found In 'Dla-
monds and Precious Stones by Prof.
Harry Emanuel OF London and New York,
1873, in which no says: The diamond Is
not acted upon by acids or alkalies. and
when air Is excluded, may be heated to
whiteness without injury When exposed
TO the heat OF powerful galvanic bat
terry. II fuses, and is converted into
mass resembling coke. its specific gravity
being greatly reduced. It's perfect COM
bustion may be effected in the open air,
OF III Oxygen gus, Uul II requires u very
intense heat, which scarcely can be
measured. II is so great, and instruments
are so imperfect The diamond has been
burned by concentrated sun rays. in a
large parabollc reflector. In 1894
These scientific opinions are beyond
question, yet in an ordinary sense, as II
is understood. the diamond Will bear great
heat and remain unhurt. but under the
foregoing conditions of heat and atmos-
phere the diamond will burn, just as other
things burn"

STOP DRINKING
Orrine Will Destroy All Desire for
Whiskey or Beer-A Guar
antecd Cure.

Nearly every drinking man thinks
that sometime he Will quit. He often
swears Off, but cannot resist tho
craving for drink. and the disease, for
this is what 1t really Is, becomes so
firmly fixed that it cannot be cured
without medical treatment.
A Michigan druggist, H G. Cole
man. has made a thorough study Of
the various cures for the liquor habit,
and gives this as result Of his inves-
tigations: Before taking the agency OF
Orrine went to considerable trouble to
learn about II, and became confident
that 1t was thoroughly honest prepa-
ration and put out by an honorable
firm I have sold It for years, and can
truthfully say that my confidence In III
grows stronger the more 1 see Of its
results. / believe that any man who
really desires to be cured of the liquor
habit can cure himself with the help
of Orrlne and be rid of the bad effects
which the habit has upon himself and

cret remedy. which can be given with

II is entitled TO. The State formerly OBJ
tainod It's water supply for the, peniten-

tcntiary grounds. 1t was necessary to
pump this water TO the buildings and
the pressure was so low that there was
The State applied for and received from
the city the right to take Its wator cup
ply from the conduit which flows above
tho penitentiary buildings and affords an
abundant supply md excellent pressure.
Contention of the City.
The city has always maintained that
the state is taking moro water from the
conduit, and from the 80 per cent right
which tho city owns In tho creek, than is
being returned to the conduit from tho
rights that are owned by the State, and
that part OF the water of the creek that
Is now being allowed to flow into the
Kennedy ditch, which liz owned by the
State should be turned into the conduit
to make up tho supply that the penitcn-
tiary Is drawing from tho conduit.
Left in Hands Committee.
After carefully going over tho matter
from the time the State first began to
take water from tho conduit, 1t was de-
