C'jve Bachelor Ordered to Leave Pursuant to adjournment, the regu metals. Less than 50 years ago it was a curiosity of the laboratory. In 1888 it had a market value of $10 a pound. Today the price is about 13 cents in Europe; in this country it is somewhat higher. It is by far the most plentiful of all nretils. Every clay bank is a mine of it. One cubic yard of ordinary clay contains about 800 pounds of luminum. Such being the case, one might be puzzled to know why aluminum at a few cents a pound is so dear. The rea son is simply that chemical science up to date has been unable to discover a mem« whereby the metal can be cheaply separated from clay. At pres ent the principal source is a mineral called bauxite, found in scattered and limited deposits, which is a pure oxide of aluminum. So ne day the problem of separating aluminum from clay will be solved and thereupon will be ushered in the alumi num age, with a veritable revolution in the world's industrial affairs. The metal will to a great extent take the place of wood. There will be aluminum ships, aluminum bridges and aluminum furniture. Cities will be built of alu minum. Seattle Strikers Resume Work.
