They Come From Titanium and Ar ~
Firm ~ the Diamond.
The diamond has ever been regarded
as possessing one quality that placed 1t
beyond rivalry-namely, that of hard
ness. There are several gems that COM
pete with it in beauty. and at least one
the ruby-when Of rare size outranks
it in costliness, but none in the whole
list equals 1t in hardness. The hardest
steel cannot equal the diamond in that
respect.
But there are at least two products
Of chemical experiment that have
proved, according to French chemists,
to be as hard as diamonds. These are
produced from the rare metal titanium.
One experimental, it is claimed, sue
ceeded in preparing titanium in the
electric furnace. In the pure form 1t
is much harder than steel or quartz,
and when combined with silicon OF
carbon so as to form a silicide or bo-
ride Of titanium it matches the dia-
mond itself in hardness.
Ttanium resembles tin in its chem
ical properties, and it is the character
istic element in the beautiful red and
brown crystals Of rutile. These, in the
shape Of needles. are sometimes found
penetrating large white quartz crys
tails, forming gems that the French
call ''love's arrows. York Press

Minaral Microbes.

Some interesting experiments have
been made with ancient medals. vases
and SO forth Of lead that are gradually
disintegrating In the museum OF Gu
nv. After a certain number OF years
they fall into dust. The cause. 1t Is
thought. lies In the presence of minute
quantities Of saline matter with which
the objects have become impregnated
during their long burial in the soil or
under water. These microscopic I'm
purities play the part of bacteria and
microbes in living bodies. In other
words. the lead is "sick" and unless
the noxious matter can be removed
will inevitably perish. Curiously
enough. it is found that If traces OF
salt are impaired to a fresh mass OF
lead 1t Is attacked and eventually falls
to pieces like the objects in the mu'
scum at Cluny.

"HAWKER" SHANk'S
MOVE WAS COPIED
Des Moines Mayor Also Gets
Into the "Spuds" Mar
ket-Bought Carload.

DES MONIES, Oct. 21.-1n order to
reduce the cost of living and break
the combination which he alleges ex-
lists in this city among the commits
sion men, Mayor James R. Hanna
shipped in a carload of first class po-
tatoes and sold them on the city mar
ket at IS cents bushel. Potatoes
have been retailing in the city at 81
to $11O.
There was a tremendous scramble
at the market for the potatoes and the
carload was sold out as rapidly as the
city statesmen and market master
could wait on the people. Only one
bushel was sold to any one customer.
Five hundred bushels were disposed
of in this way.
Mayor Hanna had announced,
through the daily press, that he was
going to bring the carload of pota-
| toes and sell them at IS cents.
When the market master and his
assistants, with several drays, went
to the car before daylight to load
their wagons for the city market a
large number of people were waiting
around the car. They pleaded to be
permitted to buy them from the car
but their request was refused. They
then followed the big drays up to the
municipal market place, where still
| larger crowd was waiting.
People of all classes and conditions
were there. Stylish women, who hao
come down early in their automobiles
had their chauffeurs supplied will
bags and baskets. Men and womer
thinly clad were there, some of then
having their children along with theil
little wagons. When the selling be
gan it took several policemen to SCI
that all of the eager buyers had fai
opportunity to make their purchases
Many begged to be permitted to bu.
more than one bushel, but this reques
was refused.
Men thought to be spoilers" TO
the commission houses watched tn
sale closely. One man had small
stand where he had several potatoe
cut up showing decayed centers. n
contended they were samples OF tn
mayors potatoes and that they wer
rotten.
The mayor commissioned farme
friend of his to buy the potatoe
in the eastern part of the state, wher
it was learned they could be bough
and offered here at Is cents. Anothe
load probably will be put on the mai
ket in a few days. Threats by tn
commission men that they will put pr
tatoes on the market at 40 cents
bushel pleased the mayor. THAT
Just what we want" he said. Nv
want the people to buy potatoe
cheaper than they have been buyin
them"

TO FIGHT TO SAVE
CRYSTAL PALACE
(National News Association)

LONDON, Oct 21.-Shan the Crys-
tai Palace be saved to the people OF
Britain, or shall the wonderful build
ing now gracing the heights of Sgd
enham be removed to make room for
the villas which are spreading around
London like a network? This is a
question uppermost in the public
mind today. Whatever the issue may
be, certain it is that the historic struc-
ture will not be lost to the public
without a struggle. The Lord Mayor
has convened a meeting to be held at
the Mansion House next Monday of
all bodies and individuals interested
in the preservation of the building.
At this meeting the probabilities are
that the fate of the place will be set
tied. Should no feasible suggestion be
made the palace will be disposed at
auction next month.
The story of the Crystal Palace is
one of romance, and is most intimat-
ely connected with the life of the late
Queen Victoria. Erected first in
Hyde park for the great exhibition OF
1851, it was in 1854 removed to its
present site in Sydenham slope and
was opened by the Queen with great
pomp and ceremony in that year. 1t
soon became a national institution OF
which every Britain was proud. and
the story of it's splendors spread to
all parts of the world. When it's was
partly destroyed by fire in 1866 the
late King Edward, then Prince OF
Wales, led the movement for raising
the funds necessary for the recon
struction of the building.

d vinei'a writinoa.

Although Leonardo da vinci was a
voluminous writer. he never published
II single line during his lifetime.
After the masters death in France
his manuscripts were taken back to
Italy. His heirs proved unworthy,
and the precious writings were grad
ually dispersed. Loose pages were
often detached and were either given
away as relics or stolen. No attempt
was made to publish any OF his
treatises. except that on painting, for
more than 800 years after his death.
This vas partly owing to the great
difficulty Of deciphering his handwrit-
ing. Da vinci was left handed and
always wrote In oriental fashion, from
right to left. Besides this, his orthog-
raphy is peculiar to himself. He alb.
breviates some words and joins others

THIEVES BUSY AT

Earlham college authorities are de-
termined to stop alleged thieving at
the institution. Thursday, a gold
watch was taken or stolen from one
of the rooms in the women's dormi-
tory. The matter is being investigat'
ed by the authorities at the college
and if the guilty party is apprehended
it is likely that he or she will be ex'
PEELED from the school.
Last year a number of thefts were
committed but the guilty parties were
not apprehended. Dorm" students
were kept apprehensive continually
last year as they believed their valua'
bles were not safe at the college.
