all the groceries that the one thing
necessary to their happiness was not
among them-a compressed yeast
cake. And, what was worse. there

This valuable young person solved
the problem with her usual prompti-

All talk of an early departure for
the border for the Kentucky troops
was silenced Friday when the latest
results from the federal examinations
showed even deeper inroads into the
strength of the Louisville companies
than had already been made. The
best opinion in camp is TO the effect
that the Kentucky boys will not be in
shape to start for the border under a
month.

WORK FOR THE GE0LOGIS7
Question Of the Origin of Ore Deposits
Has SO Far Not Been Def
nitely Settled.

Steamboat springs, Nevada, figure
prominently in discussions of the
origin of ore deposits. The waters
of these springs contain the precious
metals in minute quantities, and the
sinter deposited by them contains sew
eral minerals that are common con-
stituents of ores, as we'll as small guam,
titles of many of the rare metallic
constituents of ore deposits, including
gold and silver. Such springs, there
fore, suggest to biologists that many
and perhaps most ore-bearing veins
have been formed by hot waters rising
fro.n great depths, which have brought
their metal contents up in solution
and deposited them in open spaces or
assures in the rocks through which
the waters passed, the deposition Of
some ores being influenced by chem
ical reaction with the surrounding
rock. On the other hand, many ore
deposits are undoubtedly formed in
other ways, for some are unquestion-
ably of sedimentary origin and the
metal content of some others has been
carried down, redeposited, and con-
centrated by rainwater that descended
into the earth's crust, but the hydro
thermal" origin-that is, their deposit
tion from ascending hot water-of
many of the more valuable ore depos-
its is indicated by the close relation
observed at many places between min
eral veins and eruptive rocks.

WORLDS BIGGEST GAS MAINS
Pipes with a six-Foot Diameter Have
Been Placed in Astoria-Hronx
Tunnel.

The big gas mains in the Astoria
Bronx tunnel at New York are prob
ably the largest cast iron pipes ever
made, says Popular Science. The in
ternal diameter is two feet three-quar-
ter inches and the length twelve feet.
The one end has the ordinary bell
form; the other the spigot. The
weight of one length is about 10000
pounds.
These mains are laid parallel and
run down a shaft at Astoria on Long
island. along tunnel 225 feet below
the surface, under East river, and
then up second shsft at One Hun
dred and Thirty-second street and East
river. They are to carry gas into the
Bronx, the most rapidly-growing Dor
ough of New York city. s--.-
It is not an impossibility that the
tunnel may some time be flooded with
water. Under such circumstances 1t
would not be desirable to have the
long lines OF iron tubes begin to noat.
While the pipes are heavy enough to
prevent tbeir floating, the margin is
hot great. The weight OF watef dis
placed BY cylinder twelve feet long
and seventy-seyen and one-half inches
in diameter is between $4,000 and U.s.
900 pounds. The overlap where bell
end encompasses spigot end compli-
Gates the matter little, but after all
allowances are made. there would
probably be good solid weight to the
pipe lines If the tunnel were full OF
water.
The amount Of lead used to calk the
joints is about 225 pounds per joint,
Tho mains rest on concrete saddles set
six feet apart.
