The World by Color.

If we speak by continents, the
really white world consists of Europe,
North America to the Rio Grande, the
southern portion of South America,
the Siberian part Of Asia, and Aus
tralasia, the last two, of course, being
very thinly inhabited. On the other
hand. the world of color consists of
the bulk of Asia, virtually the whole
of Africa, and most of Central and
South America. The great bulk of
the white race is. of course, cOncen-
trated in the European continent.
Four-fifths of the entire white race
lives on less than one-fifth Of the
white worlds area. OF the colored
races the yellow are naturally the
most numerous, living in eastern Asia,
and numbering over SOC, 100000. The
browns number more than 450, 1000
while the blacks, whose center is
Africa, south of the Sahara desert,
total about 100000. The reds are,
of course, of less consequence,
being few in number.

"We've got it in the neck
once more"
ITO BE CONTINUED
GEMS NOT TRUE TO COLOR
Popular FalIacy to Ascribe to Precious
Stones Hues That May Be
Called Definite.

Story writer's talk of the sky being
as blue as a sapphire, or of a wild
beasts eyes glowing as yellow as
topaz.
Most of us are under the impression
that we can recognize gems by their
colors, and that certain colors belong
definitely to certain stones.
Quite a mistake. There is hardly a
precious stone which is always true to
color. Diamonds, of course, vary
greatly. The famous Hope diamond
is a real and most beautiful blue.
Green diamonds are found, and 9TH
ers of a lovely crimson, but these are
very rare. Black diamonds are COM
mon enough.
Black pearls are rarer, but are
found. Pink pearls are greatly priced.
One of the finest in existence was
found in a fresh water mussel in the
Mississippi river and is valued at S15,-
600. OFF the Pearl islands, south OF
Panama, pearls are found which are
lead-gray and also green.
Sapphire mines in the Rocky noun"
tains produce stones which touch the
whole color scale from blue and red
to an exquisite purple.
In Rhodesia is found a topaz OF a
most lovely pale blue. Yet the chem
zeal composition of the gem proves 1t
to be identical with the yellow topaz.
The colors of most gems are more
or less fugitive. That is, under GER
tain circumstances they are liable to
fade. Take two rubies exactly similar,
shut one in the dark, and leave the
other exposed to full sunlight, and at
the end of two years there will be a
distinct difference between them. The
one that has been exposed to the light
will be decidedly paler than the other.
Similar results may be observed
with both emeralds and sapphires.
Garnets also will turn lighter, while
in the case of the topaz, sunlight ends
by diminishing and dulllng the color
of this stone.-Stray Stories.

ing one another down al they fought
to get the door open. Sticking the
empty pistol back into my pocket l
jumped to get action, hurting my sore
hand like the mischief in doing 1t.
Hatch was the first man out, but
the big German was so close a second
that he knocked his smaller partner
down and fell over him. Clanahan
kept his feet. He had a gun in his
hand that looked to me, in the dark
ness, as big as a n l was nat
tened against the side of the scale
shack, and when the divekeeper tried
to side-step around the two fallen mel
who were blocking the way, | snatched
the folded paper from his pocket;
snatched it and ran as if the dickens
was after me.
That was a bad move-the runaway.
If l had kept still there might have
been Il chance for me to make a sneak.
But when | ran, and fell over a pile
of loose coal. and got up and ran
again, they were all three after me,
Clanahan taking blind shots in the
dark with his annon as he came.
Naturally, | made straight for the
wagon gate, and forgot, until l was
right there, that 1t, and the wicket
through n of the leaves, were both
locked. As ] shook the wicket, a bullet
from Clanahan's gun spatted into the
woodwork and stuck a splinter into
my hand. end l turned and sprinted
again, this time for the gates where
the coal cars were pushed in from he
railroad yard. These, too, were shut
and locked, and when l ducked under
the nearest gondola | realized that l
was trapped. Before could climb the
high fence anywhere, they'd get me.
They came up. all three of them,
putting and blowing. while l was hid
ing under the gondola.
Its probably that cowboy spotter
of Norcross'. but he can't get away"
Hatch vas gritting-meaning Tarbell,
probably. The gates are locked and
we can plug him if he tries to climb
the fence. There's a gun in the scale
house. You two look under these cars

Cause of Forest Fires.

OF thousands of fires only a frac-
ton are due to lightning and unpre-
ventable accident. says the American
Forestry Magazine of Washington,
which adds that the great majority of
the fires that are constantly enlarg-
ing our deserts of barren sand, scrub
oak, chaparral and briers, are due to
the ~carelessness of human beings-due.
not only to the carelessness of persons
who are directly responsible for the
fires, but to the Indifference of the
great body of people whose composite
opinion permits the campers, the
farmers, the railroads, and others to
start and leave or lose control nf the
fires that do the damage.

bell had afterward proved up on all
this, it seemed finding the insulated
wire and the copper sheet with its
connections hidden in a small rubbish
closet under the hall stair, just where
a fellow in a hurry might chuck them.
"Tarbell is a striking success" Mr..
Norcross put in. along at the end of
things. "We1l keep him on with US,
Ripley"
Past this there was n little more
talk about the c. S. & w. deal. and
about what the Hatch crowd would be
likely to try next; and when it was
finished, and Ripley was reaching for
his hat, the boss said. There is no
change i'm the orders: we've got EN-

Drive it, Ripley; drive it for every
ounce there is in you. Never mind the
election talk or the stock quotations.

il never earns another net dollar.
