Red Diamond Found
in Kimbarlay Mina
A fine specimen of the very rare
rad. diamond has haan found at tU»
Star Kimberley mine, in South
Africa. The atone was discovered
in the alluvial river diggings of the
mine. The red diamond is some-
what like the ruby in color, and
will probably command a price of
$600 to $750 a carat. It was cut
to a flawless stone about six carats
in weight.
The biggest “rush’’ to peg claims
in the history of alluvial diamond
digging In the western Transvaal
took place recently on the farm
Zwartplaats, fifteen miles from Ven-
toradorp, says the Engineering and
Mining Journal Press. The length
of the run was about one thousand
yarda (five-eighths of a mile), and
about two thousand diamond dig-
gers toed the line, in fan-shaped
formation, on a curve of about one
and a half milea. The mining com-
missioner, with a force of police,
waa present to prevent confusion.
Stones worth about $50,000 had
been discovered during prospecting
operations. The number of licenses
issued for the rush was 1,680.
TOO TIMID
White Mon Tracerte
Jungloo of Panama
Lieut. F. W. Kealey and N. D.
Fitzmauriou, u rnginwr, Britinh
explorers, have returned to Panama
City after following through the
pflved trail which extended between
Oid Panama and Porto Bello in the
times of the Conquistadores, the
London Times’ Panama correspon-
dent reporta.
Thia feat involved a journey of
80 miles through the jungle and
is remarkable in that two white men
made it carrying their own provi-
sions, packs and arms with no as-
sistance from native bearers. At
the start each carried about seventy
pounds, which at the end of ten
days required to reaoj) Nombre de
Dios, on the Atlantic coast, had
been reduced to about forty pounds.
The trail ia described aa of “man
width," between two and three feet,
and made of heavy bowlders as
large as two feet in diameter, so
placed as to have formed originally
a fairly dose and even surface.
For the most part it followed
water courses, but from one valley
to another involved some steep
slopes or fairly long traverses along
the crests of ridges. At several
places the explorers report finding
mins of stone houses.

Move for **Marriage
Canter«” in Pruooia
The Prussian miuister of public
Welfare has recommended the crea-
tion of marriage consultation cen-
ters, according to the Journal of
the American Medical Association.
The purpose of these centers will be
to determine by medical examina-
tion whether the health of appli-
cants justifies marriage. The re-
sults of examinations will be re-
corded in a “marriage testimonial.”
The present decree does not propose
to make the medical examination
compulsory, nor are there any medi-
cal restriction# on marriage or any
requirement that certificate* of
health shall be exchanged between
the psrtias to the contract. The
consultation centers will servo to
establish suitability for marriage
and to give advice on medical mat-
ters pertaining to marriage. Pro-
fessional secrecy is ini|>osed on the
examiners. The form for the mar-
riage testimonial comprises the fol-
lowing four questions: l. Whit
objections, if any, are there to the
marriage of the examinee? 9. What
dangers, if any, are presented for
the other party to the contract?
What danger*, if any, would svonfc-
ual offspring incur from the mar-
riage ? 4. What defects, if any, does
the other party to the contract pre-
sent that appear to constitute an

Protection against typhoid by

ing It injected under the skin is be-
ing tried experimentally at the bac-
teriological laboratories at the State
college of Washington. Thi* method
has the advantage of making the
victims less sick than the custom-
ary shot in the arm, but the degree
of immunity it confers compared to
the older way is not yet absolute-
ly determined, according to Profs.

of the department of bacteriology.
The rate at which the immunity to
developed is also unknown for ths
present, but it to hoped that further
research will Hear up these points.
