Diamonds in Arkansas.

How the diamond fever has seized
the residents of Pike county and ad-
joining regions in southwest Arkansas
was told by Prof. w E. McCourt, of
Washington University. in his lecture
at the Academy of Science on "Arkan-
sas Diamonds.
"Since the discovery there" said
Prof. McCourt. "the people have gone
diamond mad. Every man who picks
up pebble in the road wants TO have
it examined, to see whether it may not
be precious gem. There has been a
rush of people to the fields and the
population Of Murfreesboro has doubled
within year.
People outside If Arkansas are
prone not TO take that State very seri-
ously, and the name Of Pike county
does not seem 10 add to the public
willingness to believe in the diamond
deposits.
"But biologists are well aware If
the mineral richness and geological va
riety of Arkansas, and they are aware
also that the soil of Pike county con-
tains blue clay like that of the De
Beers diamond field in south Africa.
Prof McCourt described his recent Wis.,
it to the field, which, he said. had thus
far been worked only in a crude way.
The deepest shaft which has been sunk
is thirty feet deep. There is reason,
Prof. McCourt said, to believe that
diamonds will be found at a much
greater depth.
He said 600 diamonds had thus far
been found in Pike county, the largest
81 carats, and the average size half a
carat. (St. Louis Dispatch to New
