How Graphite Was Made.
he Engineering Magazine

From the Engineering Magazine.
East of San Marcial, on the Yaqui river,
near Toledo. few miles above Onavas,
are beds called anthracite, so graphite
that in a hot muffie with a plentiful sup
a piece the size of mans fist Natural
coke is stated to occur in the same neigh
borhood 1t is reported that at the Caru-
mari mine. a few miles above OnaVas
and three miles west of the YaQui river.
while following d silver vein, coal was
struck at a depth Of 500 feet. Far her
up the Yaqui river there are said 10 be
beds Of softer Goals which are Of COM
mercial quality and quantity. While not
traced into each other. ii seems probable
that the Goals and graphite belong to the
same beds The different phases of
graphite anthracite, coke and coal found
at various localities in what seem to be
narts of the same beds leave no doubt
that the deposits have been formed from
coal beds The unlikeness in quality and
thickness of the various beds is d conf
mon characteristic in parallel coal seams.
The cause of the change from coal to
graphite was evidently tie granite which
is intruded into both the sandstones and
graphite beds and forms the country
rock over considerable areas. In places
il is the wall rock and grani"e dlkes cut
through the beds of graphite. At the
time of the intrusion of the granite the
rocks were necessarily greatly deformed.
The coal beds would crush and slip most
easily. and show the greatest effects of
disturbance Hence the graphite occurs
in a finely broken mass showing numbers
less planes Of movement. This is why
large niece may be easily crumbled in the
hands.

TO ENLARGE ITS QUARTERS
WASHINGTON CANOE CLUB
WILL SPEND $4,000.
Addition to Be Built to Present
Structure and Many New
Features Added.

The Washington Canoe Club decided
last night at special meeting to spend
| in the neighborhood of 5000 to enlarge
| and remodel it's clubhouse, which is To-
Gated on the Potomac river just above
| the Aqueduct bridge, according to plans
drawn by George p Hales, the architect
of the original building. The work will
be started at once and will probably be
completed by the first of the year.
President Odell Whipple explained the
plans for the addition which the board
of governors has had under considera-
ton for some time. They had been ap-
proved by the board he said and it had
become a matter for the full club to
consider. The authorization for the eX-
penditure of the money necessary to pay
for the work was made by unanimous
vote.
The remodeled home of the club will
have IA frontage of 100 feet on the river.
The addition which will be built on the
east side will be .t6 feet by - feet
There will be new entrance by means
of a bridge to clear the railroad track
recently built along the river front at
this point. In every respect the house
will be made modern canoe clubhouse.
The assembly hall will be enlarged
by being made fourteen feet wider. The
mems locker room will be enlarged
and the ladies' reception room will be
located, enlarged and fitted with lock-
ers. A meeting room for the board of
governors Will be provided, together
with workshop. kitchen. new shower
baths, an increased space for the stor-
age of canoes and enlarged vestibules
and halls.
The feature of the new structure,
however, will be grill room where
light lunches may be served. This will
be on the first floor at the front and
will probably have a balcony opening
toward the river 1t will be handsome
ly finished. and the decorations will in
clude mural work by Felix Mahony one
of the members of the club. Another
feature will be two new porches, which
will be added to the already large
porch space.

THEPRESIDENT'S THANKSGIVING
TURKEY.

The president of the United States
is one of the few fortunate indiyid-
uals in the country who need not
bother about where the Thanksgiv-
ing meal is going to come from. II
is sure to come, in fact, il comes in
such great quantities and in such
great variety that it would take a
man of more than Mr.. Taft's ample
build and considerably more than his
capacity for enjoying good things to
eat to get through the menu his
friends would provide.
There is man up in New England
who prides himself on raising tur-
keys. Some years ago he sent
monster bird TO the White House for
the presidents dinner. The turkey
had been fed up in great style. 1t
had been the pride of the farm and
the neighborhood throughout that
part of the country had watched the
turkey grow into n proper state of
perfection for the palate of the presi-
dent of the United States. The tur-
key made a great hit at the White
House and since that day one prize
bird and several others. just for good
measure, have been sent down from
the New England farm for the
Thanksgiving dinner at the White
House. Other turkeys, to be sure,
have been laid before the presidents
at this season but none has seemed
to compare with the New England
fowl and so each year the gift is re-
peated.
AS for vegetables. they come by the
barrel and for this one day at least,
| the housekeeper to the president need
not give single thought to the mar
ket house.
Thanksgiving at the White House.
| much the same as at Christmas. is a
happy time. indeed. For family in
which there are young people. the
great big colonial house offers the
most enhancing opportunities for
giving vent to the holiday spirit. Its
great wide halls. immense guest
chambers which would make at least
four good sized bedrooms if they
were partitioned off as such. the high
colonial fire places, blazing with their
sparkling logs and the big library
the White House living-room-are
ideal.-From Thanksgiving at the
