A negro pearl hunter the other day
found a pearl weighing 47 grains in
the waters of Lake Blotenaau, near
Shreveport, La., said to be one of the
largest gems of Its kind In the United
States. The finder sold It In Shreve
port for $260, and the purchaser In
turn received $1.500 for the stone. The

third a professional pearl buyer. Thlg

CHICAGO FOR PEACE,
Hamilton Club at Mammoth Meating
Upholds Taft.
Chicago— Chicago’s voice was raised
for international peace at a mammoth
meeting held here under the auspices
o f the Hamilton club in the Auditori
um theater. Ex-Vice-President Fair
banks, Colonel Henry Watterson, o f
Louisville; Representative Foster, o f
Vermont; Jane Addams and Dr. Emil
G. Hirsch, o f Chicago, made appeals
for the ratification o f the general arbi
tration treaties now pending in the
United States senate.
Such ratification, advocates o f peace
declared, will mean the abolishment
o f implements o f war in favor o f the
dignified councils o f peaceful arbitra
tion.
President T a ft was praised for his
advocacy of the treaties which, if rat
ified, it was said, would insure world
peace and the United States was de
clared to be the first nation really to
announce itself as in favor of arbitra
tion o f international
differences.
This was in the treaty between this
country and England, the early part
o f the last century, to settle boundary
disputes on the border line o f Maine
and Canada.
M '. Fairbanks defined the treaties
advocated by President Taft, and
which the senate is asked to ratify, as
broader in scope than any previously
considered treaties.
“ These treaties,” said Mr. Fair
banks, “ i f ratified by the senate, will
become a fixed feature o f our interna
tional policy, and the policy o f two of
the other leading world powers.”
FIRE DESTROYS
BIG SKY-SCRAPER
Astronomers and other scientists
have not yet succeeded In ascertain
ing Just how far the atmosphere of
our earth extends above the land and
the sea on which It rests, but some of
them hope to some day soon. The
Astronomer Koyal of England, who
has completed bis report for the fiscal
year ending May 10. tells aome very
interesting things about the varying
densities, altitudes and temperatures
of the air cushions, air pockets and
air currents surrounding the earth.
In reference to air currents and
the m son s why the wind blows, the
report explains that air consists of
gaseous particles, all trying to get
away from one another, and that, un
der certain conditions, they can be
compelled to come closer together by
contraction, or forced to fly further
apart by expansion
A quart bottle,
for example, holds 22 grains of air at
the temperature of 70 degrees. If the
bottle be cooled by surrounding It
with ice, the air tnstde contracts.
When this occurs, more air rushes In
through the bottle's neck. The quart
of air now weighs more than 22 grains.
If the bottle be heated, the air It con
tains expands. Its tiny particles fly
further asunder, and many of them
escape from the bottle altogether.
There Is still a quart of air, but It
weighs much less than the original 22
grains.
Now, consider the earth and the sea
under the Influence of varying degrees
of the sun'a heat. Where the heat Is
greatest, the sir Is made lighter aDd
expands. Where the heat Is least, the
air Is unexpanded and heavy. Both
the hot and the cold air have weight,
but the oold, being the heavier, Is
drawn more effectively down to the
ground. In doing so It drives the light
er air up out of Its way. Just as a lump
of lead dropped Into a pall of water
forces some of the water upward. If
the earth were equally warm at every
part, and continued at a constant tem
perature. wind could not exist. It
"blows” because of heat and gravita
tion. In other words, air moves from
the place where its weight or pressure
Is most, toward the place where Its
weight or oressure Is least.

Money Loss 86,000,000—Vaults
Full o f Wealth.
New York— The immense marble
and granite home o f the Equitable L ife
Assurance society, covering a block on
Lower Broadway, a historic landmark
o f New Y ork ’s early period o f sky
scraper buildings and one o f the city’s
important financial centers, was de
stroyed by fire January 9 with a loss
o f at least six lives and probably $6,-
000,000 in property.
Twelve persons
were injured.
The fire started in the kitchen o f a
restaurant in the basement o f the
building.
Valuable records, including the bi
ography o f E. H. Harriman, and two
priceless libraries which cannot be re
placed, went up in flames, and the
fate o f hundreds of millions o f dollars’
worth o f securities, stored in safe de
posit vaults, is in question, although
it is believed that fireproof construc
tion saved them from damage.
The great structure, which besides
containing the main offices o f the
Equitable L ife Assurance society, was
the home o f the Mercantile Trust com
pany, the Equitable Trust company,
the banking house o f Kountze Broth
ers, August Belmont & Company, the
Harriman railroad lines, the Mercan
tile Safe Deposit company, the Law
yer's club and many o f the city ’s most
prominent law firms, stands a shell o f
ice-coated stone.
The intense cold caused a thick
coating to form on the facades o f sky-
erapers adjacent and on the pavement
for blocks around.
The bulwark of
modern fireproof structures nearby,
according to Fire Commissioner John
son, protected the entire financial dis
trict. The damage, except by water,
was confined to the Equitable struc
ture.
O f those who lost their lives, three
employes o f the building were killed
by jumping from the roof to which
they were driven by the flames.
Battalion Chief Wash dropped in a
whirl o f smoke and flame when a cave-
in occurred on the third floor. Two
other men, William Campion, captain
o f the watchmen in the Mercantile
Safe Deposit company, vaults, and
Frank J. Neider, a special officer,
whose bodies have not been recovered,
complete the list o f dead, so far as
known.
Several persons, watchmen
and
others, who were in the structure
when the fire broke out, have not been
accounted for, but are believed to
have escaped. The death total, how
ever, may not be fixed until the fire
has been entirely extinguished and the
ruins have had time to cool.
Among the injured is W. J. Giblin,
president o f the Mercantile Safe De
posit company, whose rescue from the
basement vaults, where he was im
prisoned, after two hour’s work by
firemen, was one o f the most sensa
tional episodes o f the fire.
He had
gone into a vault to save securities
and accidentally locked himself In
with an employe who had accom
panied him.
Their cries were heard by the fire
men, who had to saw through the steel
bars o f a door leading to the street be
fore they could rescue the imprisoned
men. Mr. Giblin was taken to a hos
pital suffering from the effects o f the
smoke.
One man in another vault o f the
Mercantile Safe Deposit company, be
lieved to be Campion, could be seen
from the street with his legs pinned
down by a mass o f debris, but could
not be rescued because steel doors
barred the way. Through the smashed
windows o f the doors the last rites
were administered by Chaplain Mc-
Gean, o f the fire department just as
he was swallowed from view by the
dense smoke.
