The Diamond,

The diamond is pure carbon or char coal, but the secret processes by which nature rearranges the atoms of the black, lusterless >charcoal into the flashing diahmond is a. mystery that the chemists, stimulated by the cer- tainty of great gains provided they were successful in finding the solution, have never been able to discover. Nor is it certainly known from what de- partment nature takes the diamond making material. It is supposed to be furnished by vegetable charcoal which undergoes peculiar process of decom- position and specialization, but it has also been conjectured that the car bonic acid, shut up from remote pc riods in the calcareous rocks, may have solidifled in this peculiar form.

CoNsTANTINoPLE, June l4.-In
Ottoman government circles the view
il held that much nonsense is being
circulated about the relations OF Tur-
key to Germany. The many official
reports issued on the subject have
had no result, 1t is said. so that now
the government offices at STEAMBOAT
care no longer as to what degree OF
German suzerainty oSer the Ottoman
Empire Is alleged.
II is a fact that no officer from
Germany ever served in any capacity
In the Ottoman army or government
as a German officer. Before he could
occupy himself with matters distinctly
Turkish, or before he could issue a
single order in the Ottoman army, the
German officer had to enter formally
the service of the Sultan and change
his uniform for a Turkish one. NO
exceptions have ever been permitted
In this.
The attitude of the Turkish govern
ment Is that while German officers,
non-commissioned officers and men
were needed in the Turkish army.
they could be admitted only as Otto
man soldiers. All are subject to the
ottoman military and civil laws,
though on the latter point there Is

by a comparison of the times or dis
