country. Forty years ago there were
40 900 acres under irrigation In the
United states. This was increased to
4 Gal. 900 in 1889, and to 100000 In
1902. and the latest reports availab's
show 10000 900 acres, or "a per cent
of the land under irrigation through
out the world which totals approxi-
mately 100000 acres Thus 1t will
be seen the United States has nearly
one-ouarter of the irrigated land In
the world, and this viii be constantly

The movement has been immensely
added to by the active work and CO

Arizona alone cost $S,000,000, and the
Elephant Butte project, on the Rio

much more. Other plants in Colo

production of the country. But the
people are not waiting on the gov

Colorado and other states, thousands
of acres are being reclaimed entirely
by private capital. Incalculable farm
wealth will be thus added to the coun

He reached out and found her hand,
and she did not withdraw It from his
clasp.
1.-THE rascal has locked us in," he
said. I'm afraid we shall have long
wait"
"Will 1t do any good to shout?"
"No one could hear us through these
walls. No. there's nothing to do but
remain quiet. But you needn't stand,
Girl"
He led her to the wall. Removing
his coat, he folded 1t and placed 1t on
the floor for cushion, and she seated
herself upon it. He remained standing
near by.
THE papers," he said. "are in that
.oat you are sitting on"
He laughed, with consciousness OF
the grim and terrible humor of their
situation-which he hoped she had not
realized. Here they were, the hard
sought papers in their possession, yet
they were helpless even to save their
own lives.
Il wish you would shout" she said.

TO the door, he called out several
times with the full power of his lungs.

was no answer from without.

Then she sighed. "Oh. the irony of it!"
she exclaimed.

give up, Girl. Well dsliver those pa

"I will not give up" she said, grave
ly. "But tell me, how did you get the
papers?"
orme began the story of the after
mons adventures.
"Why don't you sit down. she
asked
"Why"-he stammered-"I-"
He had been so conscious of his
feeling toward her, so conscious of
the fact that the one woman in all the
world was locked In here alone with
him, that since he arranged her seat
he had not trusted himself to be near
her, And she did not seem to under
stand.
She wished him to sit beside her, not
knowing that he felt the almost over
towering impulse to take her in his
arms and crush her close to him. That
desire would have been more easily
controlled, had he not begun to believe
that she in some degree returned his
feeling for her. If they escaped from
this black prison, he would rest happy
in the faith that her affection for him
now, as he supposed so largely friend
". would ripen into a glorious and
compelling love. But 1t would not be
right for him to presume-to take ad
vantage of moment in which she
might think that she caredfor him more
than she actually did. Then, too, he
already foresaw vaguely the possible
necessity for an act which would make
II best that she should not hold hin
too dear. So long he stood silent tina
she spoke again.

and humid at the bottom, but comes out
cold and dry at the top. While standing
near this cool-wave churn I positively
shivered. 1t received its brine from the
central plant.
The problem or cooling hotel bedrooms
is complex. according to Prof. Rosa, be-
cause. of the irregularty Of their occu-
pdncy. II would be eXtravagant TO keep
the chilled brine circulating in all at
once If only half OF them, say, were
occupied, and the question of keerAng
windows down would further complicate
matters. But the cooling of hotel dining
rooms and paIlors is perfectly feasible.
Hotels which now operate five to ten ton
machines for chilling foods and wines
could probably cool their entire interiors
by installing so to 100 ton plants. Com
pared with that Of hotels. the problem
IS simple in theaters, where one single
space Is to be cooled.
A millionaire's mansion could readily
be refrigerated by the 5000 plant men
toned, but the cost Of fuel and attendants
would be greater than to heat the Same
house in winter-for, as we said, IL takes
more coal to produce cold than 10 create
heat. Nor could the same radiators used
for heating be employed for cooling, on
account of the necessity Of drip pans.
An installation for the indirect system
mentioned could actually be used for both
heating and cooling, but separate radi-
ators would, after all, be cheaper in the
end.
Central plants may in the future pipe

communities, but the cost of such a sys-
TEN would be prohibitory. save in exceD-
tional cases.

at all as evidence OF value. All minerals
in their pure state are pure white, and
the color shown is due to mineral pig
ment in many cases.
Refraction is single or double accord
ing to the system of crystallization. and
the double refraction Is due TO irregu-
larity of the crystal!ized structure. Some
stones have one direction only in which
there is no splitting up of the rays, and
others have two, giving twin color erect.
There is consequently monochrolc dich-
roic and pleachroic refraction. Colors IN
the diamond are due to its very high
refractive index and high dispersive prop
erty and the effect is seen in distinct
flashes OF color. This fire Is not seen in
stones badly or improperly cut.
The iridescence of the opal Is due 70 the
amount OF water in its composition and

The average person is probably ac-
quainted with eight or ten varieties OF
precious stones, but as a matter of fact
there are from eighty TO hundred va
rieties in everyday use and perhaps q
hundred others that are more or less
often seen.
The property of hardness is of vital
Importance. The beauty of great many
precious stones is impaired by rough and
improper usage. Only those stones which
combine great beauty and rarity with a
high degree of durability can lay claim to
the title of precious.
A scale has been devised to indicate the
relative degree of hardness. On this
scale the diamond is represented by ten;
the sapphire. nine; topaz, eight; quartz,
All stones below the number of five are
regarded as too soft for articles of jew
elry.
In each of these degrees however.
there is considerable variation In the
diamond alone there are very great diff
ferences of hardness, as between stones
coming from different localities, and the
same remark applies to sapphires.
There is much difference between
the diamond and the sapphire in point of
hardness as between the sapphire and
the lowest number on the scale. They
all have their relative densties indicated
by the relation of size or weight.
1t is very essential. therefore, TO have
approximate idea of the density, and IN
order to value stones one should be able
TO gauge, to certain extent, the relative
weight. One stone of two carats weight
may be half the size or another OF equal
weight. There are several methods or
determining this particular property; for
instance immersion in a heavy liquid
of known density or weighing by
hydrostatic balance.
The color of gem stones. although of
greatest importance commercially. Is Of
little or no value in determining their
particular identity Certain stones show
chara cteristic shades of color, 1t is true
but It is only after various tests have
been applied that color can be considered

may be added by placing the radiators in

the employees, but for the protection of
the delicate instruments. whose accuracy
IS disturbed by the condensation of hu-
midity upon their insulations.
The other scheme for cooling buildings
thus with chilled brine Is known as the

great radiators are placed In chambers, in

whence big blowers force the cooled and

Our big law factory on Cap1tol Hill
will, by one or the other OF these sys-
TENS, be fortified forevermore against
summer extra session terrors, and Mr..
Elliott Woods will profit by Prof. Rosa s
researches before he makes his final plans.
Now, you are asking yourself, as l
did Prof. Rosa, IL the mind OF man has
devised all of these wondrous things
why, IN the name of all that stews and
sizzies, is the hide OF man not profiting
by them in hotels and theaters and the
sacred precincts of the home? am told
that although the system has already
been installed In commission houses,
cold-storage establishments, breweries
and the cuisines of our great hotels for
the protection Of foods, furs and textiles,
Gods living creatures are not yet con-
sidered sufficiently worthy Of such COM
fort, except in a few scattered Instances.
The only great American office building
thus cooled appears to be the New York
Stock Exchange, which now can prob
ably boast of being the best refrigerated
building devised for the habitation OF
man.
The refrigerating machine, which cools
both the big exchange room and the safe
deposit vaults. has a capacity equivalent
to the melting of 300 tons of ice per day.
1t is operated with exhaust steam from

One of these plants has just been in
stalled in the State, War and Navy
building, in Washington, at a cost OF
$4,000. True. it's function is to supply
ice fors the building rather than to cool
1t. but pipes, radiators and fans are the
only accessories that would be needed to
convert this little ice factory into a re-
frigerating plant big enough to cool a
theater of ordinary size
suppose 1t cost $50 a day to operate
1t? Would it be g. difficult matter to
get the money back at the box office?'
asked Prof. Rosa
During the hottest weather" he added.
1t would cost less than one dollar per
day per room of the average size of
your big rooms in public buildings, or
from twenty-five to fifty cents per day
per bedroom in hotels. We esti-
mate that to cool buildings 1t costs one
dollar per ton Of refrigeration which
adopted unit means the amount of cool
ing produced by the melting Of a ton OF
ice"
Why will not the direct saving Of hu-
man life give as great a return for this
investment as the saving of furs, oriental
rugs and the reserve supply Of eggs, meat
and poultry, stored away to protect,
with other things, the high cost OF liv-
ing?
