THE L I ARRIVE


A MOTHER little life, the existence
IA of which was known only to sew
eral men and n woman, it's mother,
was suuffcd out shortly before mid
night last night at the rear of a pool
room and restaurant at 1888 South
Boston avenue. No physician had
been summoned to administer to the
little one and, although six months
old, it appeared to have lived only
six weeks. Growth and development
apparently had been retarded by, its
SquaIld surroundings.
When members of the police de
partmeut responded to a call, for they
were called, instead Of an underiakor,
they found 1.-THE little one, who prob
ably never had seen the earth or
daylight into which it was born, ON
a hastily prepared bier with a Christ
mas candle burning fcebly at its
head. The mother, the only woman
on the premises, apparently, knelt be
side the tiny body, her whole frame
]convulsed with sobs. Wholly Obvious
to the swarm of men who accOm>
panied the police into the narrow
room, which was home to her, she
mOaued pitcously and probably cursed
the unseen power which had taken
her little one.
Undertaken Arrives.
The police promptly called an un-
dertaker, who put the tiny specimen
into a basket, possibly Il little more
teudcrly than was wont to be his cus-
tom. and when he started for tho
waiting funeral car the men and boys
and that solitary WOman-thC heart

Hunt nodded.
sWell, that's the diamond cutter l

The old man led them TO his den
without so much as a single glance
over his shoulder. Hunt agreed to go
inside while Baird stood on guard out
side. Half an hour later Hunt rejoined
the reporter.

Diamonds From Sugar.

Although at first thought the state
ment seems incredible, it is perfectly
true that a lump of sugar may be con-
verted into diamonds. Not all the sub
stance of the sugar, of course, will en-
ter into the composition of the dia-
mond, but only the carbon that it con-
tains. Sugar consists of carbon united
with oxygen and hydrogen. 1t is an
easy matter to separate out the carbon,
and in certain experiments for the pro-
duction of diamonds this sugar carbon
has been employed. The diamonds so
produced were, of course, very small
and destitute of commercial value, but
still they were real diamonds and the
chemical result achieved would be no
greater intrinsically if they were as big
as the Cullinan. Scientists have often
expressed the hope that an improve
ment in the process of manufacturing
diamonds may be effected whereby the
necessity of dissolving the carbon in
molten iron may be dispensed with,
and the required combination of great
pressure with great heat may be
brought about by some such operations
as squeezing the carbon between red
hot metal plates.-Exchange

kind OF way. 1t keeps going through
my head that there is some connection

garage we've slylarked in once or
twice"
II rceolect the place." observed
Baird dryly. "They nearly had me
there one day"
Hunt went to work rapidly and skill
fully and within the stipulated time
presented an appearance that was near
enough to that Of the real artist to fool
the ordinary eye.
Great work. cried Baird. 81 tell
you what-you enter the villa and get
established, and | on my part will see
where that garage trapdoor leads to-"
At 4 that afternoon Hunt, armed
with his forged introduction, presented
himself at the front door Of the Du Val
villa. He was ushered in by the pom
pous footman. The peudo artist was
requested to be seated. Then the foot
man took the letter upstairs to his mis-
tress who was more delighted by the
letter than the thought of being paint
ed. She had met the distinguished
French nobleman but twice, and 1t
flattered her greatly to believe that
she had been remembered. And, more
than this, the famous artist had once
noted her singular beauty and never
would be happy until he had put it
upon canvas.
Thus Hunts initial reception was
most cordial. Nine. Du Val would be
