How Power 10 Derived From Sun.

A practical demonstration OF the
possibility OF running a steam en-
CINE with heat derived directly from
sunshine has been made In California.
The rays Of the sun are focused upon
a boiler by means OF a radiator 80
feet in diameter, composed OF l.7Ss
small mirrors which are so adjusted
that they all concentrate the sunlight
upon a single central point. The heat
developed Is sufficient to melt copper,
and a wooden pole thrust into the
focus bursts into flame at once. The
steam from the suspended boiler ID
carried to the engine through u fiex'
ible tube. An energy of Is horse pow
er is developed. and used to pump
water for irrigation. The reflector Is

scope. and kept facing the sun by q

MACHINE THAT PICKS OUT
DIAMONDS CAME INTO USE.
When tile laborers descend
into the diamond mines at Kim
berley, they blast and pick out
the hard diamondiferous earth
and place 1t In wooden tubs that
are hauled on stout wires To the
surface, where the earth Is
spread over the ground TO IN
dergo. for several months, the
softening influences of heat and
cold When IL is soft enough II
Is shoveled into the washing
machines, where the dirt Is sep
arated from the rough diamonds
and other large mineral sub
stances. The mixture of miner
ais remaining is known as Con
centrates."
II was formerly necessary to
go carefully over these concen-
trates To pick out the garnets
and many other foreign sub
stances. until nothing remained
but the rough diamonds. This
was slow and laborious opera
ton. but IL was an essential
part of the mining industry I'M
I'll 1t was superseded not 50
many years ago.
Among the employees In the
sorting room was youth by
the name Of Kersten, who went
quietly to work To find a way
to separate the diamonds from
other stones more quickly and
more easily than could be done
by the slow process Of hand
picking. He was not discour-
aged by his many failures TO
find that way.
One day by the merest chance
the boy made the discovery he
was seeking. A rough diamond
and garnet happened to be
lying on "a small board on the
bench where he was working
He raised one end OF the board.
The garnet slipped off. but the
diamond remained. He found
that there was a coating of
grease on the board that had
retained the diamond, but not
the garnet
The boy procured a wider
l board, coated the side OF II with
I grease, and dumped a few hand
fuls Of concentrates on II.
Then he found that, by holding
the board In a slightly inclined
position and vibrating 1t. all the
concentrates except the dia-
monds moved to the lower end
and fell off. while the diamonds
remained in place.
! Then the boy invented a ma
chine by which his discovery
might be utilized. Considerable
! study was required to perfect
I II, but at last the machine was
I completed, and the diamond
( magnates were invited to wit
ness the new method OF separat-
I ing diamonds from the rest of
I the concentrates.
I The invention was an entire
I success. A more simple and
I complete device for saving time,
I labor, and loss of diamonds
I could not be imagined. The
I entire work Is now done by ina
chinery. Manipulating has been
I wholly superseded, and both the
! inventor and the mine owners
