The Makino of Diamonds.

1t is quite possible to manufacture
diamonds. Indeed Il famous French.
man of science, Moissan. made very
large numbers by means of his elec.
trio furnace. His process was to dis
olive Jumps of sugar in molten iron,
subjecting the solution to enormous
pressure. Lump sugar may be said to
consist simply OF water and diamond.
1t is tine case that the diamond is mere
" crystallized carbon. There are three
kinds of carbon plnmbago. graphite
and diamond the composition OF all OF
which is identical. When charcoal is
dissolved in molten iron. graphite is
formed. Ali the diamonds found in
Borneo, Brazil. India and South Africa

of a group in the hotel lobby, that an
Indian is much more fastidious than q

The red man merely lays the end OF

keeping his mouth partly open, draws
q deep breath. Removing the pipe, he
exhales the smoke and then perhaps
repeats the process. but he never puts
the mouthpiece into his mouth in the

Sinaina Kettles.

The Japanese. who know so we'll
how to add little unexpected attrac-
lions to everyday life, manufacture.
in a great variety of forms, iron tea
kettles which break into song when the
water boils. The song may not be a
very perfect melody, but it is perhaps
as agreeable as the notes produced by
some of the insects which the japanese
also treasure for their music.
The harmonious sounds of the tea
kettles are produced by steam bubbles
escaping from beneath thin sheets Of
iron fastened close together nearly at
the bottom Of the kettles. To produce
the best effects some skill is required
in regulating the fire. The character
Of the sounds varies with the form of
the kettle. These singing kettles have
been used for many centuries.

Love and Iattooino.

The %tattooing craze was the rage
among the smart set in London at the
time Of TIE South African war. 1t is
now the rage in the slums among the
humber classes, especially girls. who
pay threepence for the operation. A
tattooer tells the London Sphere that
this business thrives on love. A girl
came into his studio the other day and
had II love Jim Curly" tattooed on her
arm. About $50 the next morning
the girl knocked ut his door and. on
being demonstrated with. said: st

Modes OF the Moment.

For linen suits which will hold first
place among washable materials color
ed trimmings will be popular.
Instead of trying for a Lady Hamil-
ton or a Romney effect, the Safest fash
ion decree calls for a reproduction OF
the classic draperies Of old Greece.
Skirts are longer. For all but the
typical walking suits they are very
long and sweeping. while the street
suits have taken on another inch and
just escape the ground.
Frocks of wash materials will be
made up in the same semitailored
style as rules other fabrics at present,
If anything the skirts will be more
deliberately trimmed. but always IL
such a way as to lose none of thu
semitailored appearance. = New York

The Days Length.

The boys and girls may be surprised
to hear that the length of the day may
be found by doubling the time of the
suns setting and the length of the
night by doubling the time Of the
suns rising. If, for example. the sun
sets at 7:30, the length Of the day is
Is hours, for twice 1870 is Is. II the
sun rises that day at 1870, the length of
the night is 8 hours, for twice 4:3O is Q.
The Is hours of daylight ard the 8
hours of night make up the Whole day

O H CHILDREN
A MAGNETIC Experiment.

Most persons are familiar with mag
nets of all kinds. but few Are aware
that the property may be impaired to q
body by simply pointing it to the north
pole. The articles required for this eN-
pertinent are Il poker, q hammer, a
needle and a pan of water.
Fake the poker in the hand and point
1t to the north, dipping it to the hori-
ION at an angle of about thirty degrees.
Give the poker several sharp raps upon
its higher end with the hammer. This
will cause vibration in the molecules
of iron and the poker will become
family magnetic.
The best test for a week magnet is n
needle floating on water. Perhaps you
do not know that q needle may be
made to float, but it is very simple.
The needle must be dry and the water
still. Then, if the needle be laid upon
the surface fiat. it will float readily.
Now take the poker and hold it close
to the needle and you may draw it al,
over the saucer, but the poker must
not touch the water. If 1t should it
would raise by adhesion a little hill of
water all about it, down which the
needle would slide, thus producing a
deceptive effect of repulsion. Real re-
pulsion instead Of attraction may be
secured by rubbing one end Of the
needle on n end of the poker. The
steel will thus become a magnet also,
and when ioated the poker will attract
one end of it and repel the other.-Chi-

Would Establish New Theoioov.

The Rev. Reginald John Campbell,

Is coming to this country to preach his
new theology is we'll known on this
side of the water. He recently created
a sensation in England by publishing a
letter addressed to all free church men
and other sympathizers proposing to
form a new sect and organization for
an active propaganda in behalf Of his
new theology" the central idea of
which is the denial of the divine origin
Of Christ, whom be regards as merely
a social reformer.
Mr.. Campbell's reason for this sto,.

official element in the churches to the

How Houdin. the Magician, Awed tn.
Arabs Into Submission.
During the French conquest of Al
geria GS3O-3l negotiations for peace
We're entered upon with the slleiks of
certain Arab tribes, and a meeting for
the settlement of terms was arranged
to take place at the French %heudquar-
tiers. The French officers received
their guests with great hospitality. and
after the banquet given in their honor,
at which he utmost splendor was en-
ployed in order to dazzle their eyes
and captivate their simple minds, an
adjournment was made to a large hall,
where NJ. Houdin, the celebrated con-
jurer, who had accompanied the French
forces. gave an exhibition of his skill.
They stared in open mouthed wonder
at all the tricks that were performed.
and a feeling of awe crept over them
as they witnessed the mysterious APP
pearance and disappearance Of various
objects. But what appeared to them
most marvellous was the apparent
manufacture Of cannon balls. NJ. Hou-
din passed round among them u high
hat. which they examined very care
fully. but without suspecting anything
unusual in either its make or its ap.
pearance. When the hat was returned
to him the conjurer placed it on the
floor in the middle of the stage In full
view Of his audience. He then proceed
ed to take from the hat cannon balls
apparently without number and rolled
them across the floor into the wings.
With this the performance terminated.
The chiefs then consulted among
themselves and came to the conclusion
that 1t was useless to offer n opposi-
ton to an army that could turn out Its
ammunition in so easy a manner.
They therefore signed the required
treaty and departed to tell their friends
in the desert of the wonderful power
Of the invaders.

But there are other nuts to crack,
Quite different. you'll find.
From hazelnuts OF hickory

These nuts are hard. indeed,
And spelling is another nut,
And there's to write and read.

The less said about yesterdays game at the prairie the better for the locals again were blanked, Jim O'Rourke's troupe being the unkind persons who repeated Hartford's performance on Thursday and won 90. New Haven lost simply because, as In all the re- cent reverses, they couldn't hit and because the errors came just at the critical moment. The Orators made all their runs in the sixth. Bertwhis- tie walked and was advanced base on Ladd's single. Hit bunted with the intention of course of advancing the runners still further along, little realizing that his tap would break up the game. The sphere went straight at Andy Herbst and the big pitcher felded the ball perfectly and foolishly tried to head Bertwhistle off at the dizzy corner No doubt when he turned and saw that the Bridgeport right fielder was almost on the base he realized his effort to get him would be furtile and so surprised was he that he lost control of the ball. At any event he made a weird peg to Sherwood and the ball rolled out to the left field fence, while Bertwhistle and Tadd easily came in. Pleiss and Sherwood dug after the pill and the latter getting 1t made another phony throw which allowed Hit to walk home from third. This in nutshell Is the story of the disaster.
 Jerry Nops was effective-very much so and when the locals had the corners filled in the sixth with only one out, the crowd groaned to see their prize men fail to bring run home. This was Nop's only bad in- ming and 1t was only because of his wildness that Bone's men got on the sacks then. Three hits don't look es- pecialy well after the lone single they secured against Wilson. Herbst pitched well enough to win an ordin- ary game, but the team didn't bat behind him. Everyone is hoping for return of some hard hitting. The days summary:
