GEMS AND PRECIOUS STONES

The total value of the output OF
precious and semi-precious stones in
the United States in 1914 is reported
by ID. y. Sterrett, of the United States
Geological Survey, at S124651. The
demand for gems at the Panama Pa
cific Exposition resulted in an increas-
ed production OF turquoise and tur-
quois matrix, the production in 1914
being $l3,370, as compared with SS,075
In 1913. These gems have long been
popular in the tourist trade in the
west. HJfHH a Isltg tGps a
No discoveries of unusually fine de-
posits Of gem minerals were made in
1914 but a few prospects for the less
valuable gems we're found. Among
these were pink beryl in the quarry
of the Maine Feldspar Co, on Mount
Apatite, near Auburn, Me-; amazon
stone, variety Of feldspar, near
Lone Pine, Cal, White Plains, NJ "
and on the coast OF Maine, sunstone
in the Apache Indian Reservation of
Arizona land turquoise deposits in

GALvEsToNs SEA WALL.

The famous sea wall, designed to
protect Galveston from a repetition
of a disaster like that which befell the
city Sept g. 1900, and which with
stood the storm of last week, was
cost of $1,500,000. The money was
raised by the issuance of bonds, eV-
cry dollar of which was purchased by
the people of Galveston. The first
piling of the big wall was driven Oct.
81, 1902. Fully three years were re-
quired in completing the project.
The wall is a little more than three
miles long 1t is of concrete and sew
enteen feet above mean water level,
or 1.3 feet higher than the highest
point reached by the water in the ter
rible food of 1900 It's width at the
bottom is sixteen feet and at the top
five feet The seaface Of the wall
is curved so that its upper portion is
vertical. The foundation is built on
piles, protected from undermining by
sheet piling and rip-rap.
The engineers in charge built the
wall back from the high water line at
a point where the ground is about
three feet above mean low tide. Back
of the wall earth was filled in on a
20O-fOot level. On the top thirty
! five feet of the ground were paved to
provide a driveway of thirty feet and
a promenade of nine feet. The en-
gineers in charge, H M Robert, Unit
ed States army corps of engineers,
Alfred Noble of Chicago, and H. c.
Ripley of Ann Arbor, did not overlook
anything to make the wall as strong
as possible and give the city ample
protection
Great difficulties had to be over
come in the construction. First the
'pilings had to be driven to the clay
stratum, which varies along the beach
from thirty to forty-two feet below
the surface Next the sheet piling,
heavy timber that is driven in a
straight line outside the round piling
on the gulf side, was driven. This
was followed by the LAYING Of the
concrete foundation and the placing
of rip-rap The latter are huge pieces
of granite, some weighing a ton,
which were piled promiscuously in
front of the wall on the gulf side and
extending into the gulf for twenty
seven feet as a further protection to
the wall and its foundation from un.
dermining. The construction of the
wall proper and the filing in of the
ground behind it completed the work.
An idea of the immensely of the wall
may be gained from the quantities of
of uun1 Tho wall TpuMtTpn

TIE TOWN BAND.

Once in a while, says the Grinnell
Herald, we hear some fellow care
Ilessly say: What good is a band to
a town, anyway Well, first take an
inventory of the fellow who made the
remark. You may have reason to allow
the silly question to go unanswered.
But. regarding the remark more SER
iOusly, let us say that a good up 10
date band is one of the most useful
things a town or community can pos
sess. 1t is one of the best advertise
ments a town can have. A good band
has marked the location on the map
for many a town. Emerson says some
thing about the world making a beat
en- path Well, a good band will make
the roads leading to the town beaten
paths. even though the towns other at
fractions be not numerOut Every
merchant is benefited by a good band,
especially a concert ban1. Hundreds
of people come to town to attend the
delightful entertainments, and they
combine shopping with this pleasure.
The promoters of business and MI
Dicipal enterprise always have the sat
isfaction of knowing that their civic
demonstrations from time to time will
be successful, because they have a
first class band to lead the way and
attract the people. The churches are
provided with orchestras and special
musical numbers The social functions
of a community are more satisfactory
and decidedly more pleasure because
musicians equal to any occasion are
just close by. A band composed Of
able players-like many bands in thu
state-is a tower of strength to any
town or section of the country. 1t
cultivates the public ear to high class
of music, and does it right at your own
door, too Every enterprising citizen
will boost the band of his town where,
ever he goes"

THE NIEMEN RIVER.

Attempts at passage OF the NlSlen
River have figured in the war dispat'
c!lse almost from the outbreak of hos
tilities, and the banks of this stream
have formed one of the most contest
ed lines in the east. AS the struggling
German and Russian armies swayed
backward and forward. the Niemen
has been crossed anil reCrossed, and
the Teuton invaders are still fighting
10 pLt it's line behind them. A de-
sCriptive of the Niemen, which has
won place in history as the mos
stubbornly defended waterway in the
world war, has just been given out by
the National Geographic Society. 1t
reads: NNa
The Niemen River, through its mid
die course, builds one of the strong
links in the western line of Russian
defense. From GrodnO fortress to the
stronghold of Eovno, it cotinues the
powerful secondary line of defense OF
Bre3t Litovsk This whole section Of
the river is now an immediate object
of German advance, while its lower
course, from Kovno to the Kurishes
Half and German Memel, was alter.
nately the object of Russian and Ger
man attack during the first part of
the war. Tilsit, the great troops and
munitions center for the German cam
paign in the northeast, is upon the
Niemen, and from here the German
invasion of Courland was based.
AT the beginning of the war, the
whole lower line of the Neimen was
passed by invading Russian armies,
which swept on westward to Koenigs
burg, the capital of East Prussia. The
Russians passed this line a second
time, and, a third time captured and
destroyed Memel, the frs Baltic port
of the Miemen. The lower course of
the Niemen is now far behind the Ger
man lines; Kovno, the powerful Rus
sian fortress to the north of its mid
die course, has fallen, and a German
offensive is being pressed toward
GrodnO, the fortress at the southern
termination of this line.
The Niemen rises in the center Of
the Russian government of Minsk, the
sources of the river being almost duo
south of Duenaburg. 1t FLOWS, with
many turns and bends, west to GrOd-
no, where it turns north and pursues
an irregular course to KovnO. From
hONnO, lu6 river JuIHS HOTIu west
enters East Prussia; takes its slug
gish way over the lowlands of Tilsit,
and empties into the Baltic Sea
through the Kurisches Half and
through canal to Memel. It's total
length is 400 miles, the greater part
of which is in Russia. 1t has a drain
age basin of 34,96O square miles.
The river enjoyed great CONNER
Cial importance during peace times.
Enormous quantities of timber, cut
in the dense White Russian forests,
were fioated down the river to Nemel,
and heavy shipments of grain from
Russia and from Poland were made
down it's course. 1t was navigable
flor large boats as far as GrodnO.
There is little or no current in the
river; its whole fall from it's source
to the sea being only $50 feet The
lowlands from Tilsit are protected
against floods by a careful system of
bikes. The banks along most of the
rivers course are low and often
flanked by marshes. The commercial
importance of the Niemen Tor, as the
Germans call their part of it, the
MemeD has been largely Interested
by number of canals"

THE LITTLE CHILDREN.

THE IL LIZ Cf1lIOnEN.
Are all the little children in Thy
arms, O Lord, tonight,
Safe from the roaring battle and tie
thunder OF the fight?
Are all the little children tucked away
until the morn
Beyond the bitter trouble, and the
conflict, and the scorn?
For if they are, God rest us,
Wen be happy every one,
That they are on Thy bosom
Whom He loved so much, Thy Son!
Are all the little children cuddled up
upon Thy breast?
To dream the starry night away in
bloomy fields of rest?
Are all the little children safely in
from romp and play,
With loved arms claspei around them
as they kneel at night to pray?
Oh, If they are we're happy,
And Wen lie ourselves to dream
With faiths great temple DER us,
And the lights of love agfeam!
Are all the little children meath the
shelter of Thy wing,
Oh Lord of all the children in the rosy
lanes of spring?
Are all the little children kissed and
comforted tonight
Beyond the darkling demons of the
factions and the fight?
Then we at last may follow,
And be happy, and'b be sure
OF strength to toll and love them,
And to suffer and endure!
