DIAMONDS FROM SKY.
Blue Stuff" Said to Be Remains of
Vast Meteor.

From the New Orleans Picayune.
1t is perhaps not generally known that
the blue stuff'' in which diamonds are
found in South Africa Is the distintegrat-
ed and disorganiZed mass of a vast
meteor that once fell from the sky. A
decomposed meteor Of immense size is
reported to have been found in Arizona.
1t contains iron, nickel. platinum and
diamonds. 1t is supposed to have been,
before 1t decomposed, 500 feet in diam
eter and to have weighed several hum
dred million tons. They may be frag-
ments of comets and finding themselves
under the influence Of the attraction Of
gravitation of our earth they fall upon 1t.
The theory is that their speed may be
as high as forty or fifty miles a second.
If it be a stony meteor 1t may be crush
ed into dust by the air pressure In front
of it. Even if Of iron 1t may be torn
into fragments as If an explosion had
occurred in front If. however. 1t is a
rounded piece of iron like this lump,
then 1T would take tremendous pres
sure Of the air to crush it. and there is
no doubt whatever that most iron
meteors of rounded fern would escape
fracture unless thy were moving at the
very highest speeds
At such speeds the air pressure de-
veloped in front of them may blow them
to pieces, but il they are moving. say
one-third as fast, they may. and prob
ably will. survive unless they succumb
to another action which takes place with
iron-namely. combustion.

SHEPARD LEFT 100000.
Estate of New York Lawyer Ap.
praised After DELAY

NEW YORK, July 6.-According to an
appraisal of the estate of the late Ed
ward NJ. Shepard, the lawyer, his estate
has been estimated at $1,OO0.OO0. It was
learned yesterday that the report OF
State Transfer Tax Appraiser Bridges,
which Is in course of preparation, will be
filed soon in the surrogates Office, Brook
Ign.
In the will of Mr.. Shepard. which was
dated March 10, 1910, Mrs. Agnes s.
Hewitt, his sister, and Charles s. Shepard
are the chief beneficiaries. The tesla
tor DIRECTED that they were to receive
the income from his estate during their
lives.
The delay in appraising the estate was
said to have been due to a change in the
Office of transfer tax appraiser since Mr..
Shepard's death. Charles F. Murphy
republican, who was ousted as transfer
tax appraiser some time after Mr.. Shep
ards death. began a suit to regain his
position. and the attorneys of Mr. Shep-
ards estate wanted to wait until the lid
cation was finished before beginning an
appraisal.
