Volcanic Dust in Atmosphere.

From many points in America and Europe come reports of an unusual turbidity of the atmosphere, which be- gan early last summer and still con tinues. This is manifested in marked diminution of the intensity of solar radiation. as measured with the pyrheliometer, abnormal displace- ment of the neutral points of atmos- pheric polarization, hazy appear ance of the sky, and the presences of Bishops ring around the sun. From Dublin Sir John Moore wrote last Au- gust: The sky Is constantly covered with . thin film of uniform cloud in which no halos develop, and through which the sun, moon and stars shine with a subdued, sickly brightness. Observers In Russia, Switzerland, Sweden and Germany. as well as America. report an unusual lack of blueness in the sky. There seems to be every reason to attribute these phe- nomena to the presence in the upper atmosphere of an immense pail of dust arising from the explosive erup- ton of Katmai volcano in Alaska last June. Similar effects were observed after the eruptions of Kratatoa and Mont Pele. and in those eases lasted for some years.

Gold Production Nearing Maximum.
 From the present outlook in the gold mining industry of the world, gold production will have reached its maximum within the next twelve months, and 1t Is possible that 1912 will show a positive decrease. says H. c. Hoover in q recent article. Con- tinuing with review of the various countries in respect to their future gold production, Mir. Hoover says; "The placer gold of Europe was prac- tically exhausted in Roman times. Lode mining there is small in- dustry and every foot of ground is known. In Asia the Chinaman has washed the gravels from Siam to Tibet Mongolia centuries ago. In lode mining I can say from three years of exploration there that he has long since exhausted the mines down to water level and If mines do exist it will be very slow business finding them. I do not myself believe there exists in China or Central Asia dis trict of such importance as to materi- ally affect the question. for no greater illusion exists than that the China man has any prejudice against mining for good-when he can make profit. And he can make lode mines profit able by hand labor. on which we could not earn a cent with finest machin- cry ever built

NOVELISTS AND CRIME
GREAT WRITERS HAVE INTEREST
 ED THEMSELVES IN SUBJECT.
At the Present Time Arthur Conan Doyle Is to the Fore, Following Course of Other Masters
 of Literature.

The creator of Sherlock Holmes cer-
 tainly ought to be himself a compe- tent amateur detective, and his sue
 cess in the famous Edalji case proves that his powers In that direction are of no mean order He has now un-
 dertaken another difficult case-that of proving the innocence of Oscar Sla- ter, who Is at present undergoing life sentence for murder.
 Quite number of novelists have in- terested themselves in crime and criminals. Edgar Allan Poe used to state that there was no problem which a man could set which another man could not solve, and he applied the rule to crime. His greatest tri- umph in this method of unraveling ap- parently inexplicable mystery gave the world that famous story, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue." Dickens was strangely drawn to- ward the alleviation of suffering of all kinds, and his novels did much to bring about the more humane treat
 ment of prisoners. But Charles Reade not only exposed harsh prison meth
 ods in his famous novel Tt Is Never
 Too Late to Mend" but actually. like
 Conan Doyle, took up the case of
 what was known as the Penge mur-
 der
 In spite of magnificent and nov
 ing speech for the defense by Sir Ed
 ward Clarke, the judge summed up
 against the prisoners so decidedly that
 the jury found them guilty. It was
 then that the novelist entered the
 lists, with such telling force and con
 vincing argument that the home sec
 retary promptly commuted all the
 sentences.
 Probably the earliest instance of
 the intervention of a novelist to save
 a man from the gallows was Dr. Sam uel Johnson's herculean efforts to ob- tain mercy for the celebrated Doctor Dodd, who was executed in spite of all that the sage of Fleet street could do or say. Today. thanks to writers like Reade and Dickens, no such ad- vocacy would be needed, for this fa- nous parsons crime was forgery, for which death is no longer the penalty. Boswell in his Life of Johnson" de- votes a large amount of space to this characteristic example of his hero's kindliness and humanity.
 Many years later the famous French playwright Balzac made an effort to save the life of man named Peytel, who had been convicted of the mur- der of his wife and servant, but equal ly without success.

 "No. sir. l don't forget it for mo ment."
 Then why have you the presump- ton to suppose that l would permit my daughter to wreck her life by be- coming your wifes"
 You remember that you sent me about a week ago to ask the president of the c. F. & W. railroad company to extend a spur up to our warehouse. do you not?'
 What has that to do with what we have been discussing?"
 Your partners objected. as you will remember. because they were sure the railroad company would refuse"
 That has nothing to do with my daughters happiness"

I think you said. also, that peo- pie who never asked for what they wanted never got 1t. learned a great lesson right there. When I asked the president of the railroad company for the spur he flared up and said 1t was preposterous: but I found out after & little while that he was capable of lis- tening to reason.

 "Do you insinuate that I'm not ca pablo of listening to reason?"
 "No. sir. I think you are. If hadn't thought 80 wed have got mar ried first and asked your blessing aft erward."
