Making Artificial Diamonds.

The minute artificial diamonds Of
Moissan were produced by causing
the carbon of molten iron to crystal
lie out under great pressure. A
Berlin chemist, DR.. W. Won Bolton,
now uses coal gas, or other gaseous
carbon compound, and on decompos-
ing it by the action of mercury vapor
obtains carbon both in the amorphous
form and as diamond dust. By intro
ducing a diamond chip as a nucleus
or mother crystal, 1t is expected a
diamond growth Of appreciable size
can be brought about In the expert
ment made, the mercury was supplied
by sodium amalgam, which was placed
in long testing tube under a coating
of water-glass solution and amorphous
diamond dust, and the tube was kept
at 100 degrees c., while a slow cur,
rent of coal gas was passed through
for one month. The brilliant crystals
formed, too small for analysis, burned
in oxygen like diamonds.

FLIGHT TO THE MOON
ASTRONOMER DOES NOT THINK
THE FEAT IMPOSSIBLE.
by the Use Of Electrical Force II Can
Be Done, and Doubtless VIII, Ae-
eordlna 10 Professor Car
rett p. Servlss.

On the deck Of La Provence, at the
beginning OF an old.fashioned ocean
journey for a summer IN France, Gar
rett p. serviss, the well known as
tronomer, talked seriously Of an air.
ship service 10 the moon which he
believes the future has In store for
man.
81 begin to think seriously. but not
too seriously, now that we have
achieved the navigation of the air by
mechanical means, that there only re-
mains the necessity of providing air
TO exist upon and things TO eat for
man to 90 10 the moon" he said
But We have got to have a new
motive force. Electrical propulsion
begins TO hint what that force will be
when men fly from planet to planet.
You understand we have got to over
come gravity and there are only two
forces which overcome gravity under
certain conditions--pressure of light
and electricity
so say that the FIRST flying ma
chine to the moon will be based on
the principle OF the pith ball that
flies away from the conductor OF an
electrical machine. When this has
been accomplished there only remains
to be done what modern chemistry
certainly can achieve; that is, to All a
strong vessel, a spherical vessel, with
enough air and food TO sustain a man
during the flight This is not so ride
ulous as II may seem, and the modern
achievement Of flying is a step in that
direction"
incidentally Prof. serviss does not
| believe there are any inhabitants on
Mars my friend Lowell" he said,
doesn't allow for the fact that Mars
is too small to retain an atmosphere.
Human beings could not remain on
Mars because there probably is not
enough oxygen and nitrogen on that
planet. The gravitative force is too
small to retain an atmosphere. The
atmosphere files away. Those lines
called canals are no doubt a natural
phenomenon, Notwithstanding the fact
that they look artificial Their ex-
istence is due TO the fact that Mars
is a very fat planet. There are no
mountains there, and waters spread
out In every direction and form con-
Meeting lines. The drainage system
runs in every direction and gives that
checkered appearance Of criss-cross.

Woman Ban a Street Car.

To have been a real street car con.
ductor for three whole years, perform
ing all the duties that the Job i'm
plies, IN fair weather and foul, in the
service of one Of the first street rail-
way companies in the country, is the
unusual and probably unparalleled ex-
perience Of Mrs. Mary Susan Stone
of Upper Swampscott, Mass.
1t was in 1874 when citizens of that
quiet little town provided funds for
the organization and operation Of the
old Lynn City railway, now a part of
the Bay State Street Railway system,
that Sue" Stone, as Mrs. Stone is
popularity known among the older car
men, was initiated into the service.
The first equipment of the road con-
sisted of one small bobtail type Of car
which seated seven passengers on
each side Soon another car, seating
nine passengers on each side, was ac-
quired, and for a time this remained
the entire equipment of the road.

Under the head, "a Friends Mis-

birds, mostly migratory, which had
been trapped recently with a view to
presenting them to one who was in

all true lovers of wild life, he could
not bear to see the creatures in con

at them released every one, and al
few away, evidently happy at regain

HERE is REALLY GOOD IDEA

"They who advocate this change
know just as much about the tar

put Il In her cabba and started out.

On the 23rd OF June Edward Albert,
Prince Of Wales. was rs years Of age.
That means that he was old enough

But he won't be "of age" with all
which that implies in English law I'M

At Carnegie Music hall in Pitts
burgh one day an old gentleman was
pointed out to a girl, with the infor.
nation that he had once met the
great composer, Rossini. The girl
was a musical enthusiast and she
became greatly excited. She sought
an introduction to the old gentleman.
81 am told that you once met the
great composer" Rossini," she cried.
yes" said the old man, 81 met him
once"
you met the great composer OF
William Tell?'"
"The same"
How grand! How very romantic!
And would you please tell me what
Rossini had to say?"
We'll, he didn't have very much
to say. He was eating spaghetti at
the time, and you know that doesn't
facilitate conversation"
