Abandon Big Kelp Plant.
The plant for reducing kelp, erectei
at San Diego, Cal., at a cost of $5,500,
uuu, is to De aDanaonea oecause mi
cost of harvesting and handling th<
kelp is higher than the peace tim<
prices obtained for the products, ac
cording to Dr. W. L Noot, who has
been connected with the chemical de
partment of the kelp works, say*
Seattle Post-Intelligencer. He says
however, that the people who are burn
ing kelp after drying it will continue t<
produce potash, which is mixed witl
mineral products from the packing
v houses and-sold for fertilizer. Doctoi

; Bright Idea for Feminine Apparef.
Professor Cimician noted certain
substances that have the permanenl
quality of developing intense brilliancj
of color when brought near the light
> and fading away to dullness again as
the light decreases. He urged re
search with a view to obtaining ar
Increased number of these bodies an<3
, their possible application to textile
fabrics. As a true Italian despite his
Armenian name he imagined a beautiful
woman enuobed in such stuffs
entering a brilliantly lighted room anc
growing more resplendent as she ap
preaches.
The Ghost Ship.
Among the war stories that British
naval .men Teei iree to ten uuw i> uuc
about a "ghost ship" whose mystery
has never been solved.
In 1917 a convoy of 12 ships left a
British port. At dawrt on the day afte?
sailing the escort commander discovered
thirteen ships under his charge
While the identity of the extra shir
was being discussed the convoy was
Suddenly attacked by German llghl
- cruisers and most of the escort ?n^
nine of the merchantmen were sunk
The Germ&ns then made off.
* Survivors positively assert thai
there were thirteen ships and that th<
mysterious vessel disappeared as
N strangely as she had appeared. The?
are certain that the ship was not sunk
t Official inquiries failed to throw anj
light on the nature of the craft. 11
. *as ascertained that she could noi
have been a disguised -German raid
er, and her presence was "logged" bj
the escort commander.
Skipper Was Peeved.
At a certain naval port the oi/ie:
day, when a low tide and an obstinat
wind made it difficult for vessels t<
- tie up at the pier, a submarine wai
endeavoring- to tie up. Three time
^ did the patient commander maneuve
his craft in fairly close, but each tim<
I the wind caught his bows and ble?
the boat away. On deck stood j
young sailor who had made no fewe
than five attempts to heave a 1in<
on to the pier, but on each occasioi
v the rope fell into the watet halfwaj
Once more the boat neared" the pier
and the "skipper" felt sure the mai
Tfould manage it thi? time;vbut. alas
it hit the wall about five feet to
low. V V
This was too much for him, and
leaning over the bridge-screen, h
shouted: "Shove the bally thing ii
your teeth and swim across befop
you wear it otrt !w

silks of gokgeous color[j
' Huguenot Collection Exhibited in New
V York Declared to Be a Marvel
of Preservation.
r
r What is perhaps rhe most wonder,
ful exhibition of old French silks in the
t world is to be seen in the library of
tbe International Buyers' club at 130
3. West Forty-second street, New York,
2 says Scientific American. Tbe col
lection comprises more than 700 spedj
mens of silk manufactured by the de!
scendanrs of the Huguenots who set.
i tied in Spitalfields and Bethnal Green,
"London. after the revocation of the
. edict of Nantes in 1685. It bas lately
| come into possession of the Interna!
tional Buyers' club and is said to be
I the most valuable of its kind in the
world. *
j The fabrics of the collection are as
! durable and the colors as brilliant as if
- they were turned from the looms yes-}
i terday. The disintegration of the silk j
r fabric thaNme sometimes see? in Chi- j
nese mandarin e>3ats has not taken j
! place. Induced, the old French silk t
kJ
workers did not develop their art from ;
" the ancient Chinese, who jealously j
* | guarded the secrets of their craft. |
i j The silk industry was originated ih :
the western world by two Persian
monks who had resided in China and j
j who in about 550 brought to Constan- j
j tinople the eggs of the silk worm in
a hollow bamboo/tube. From these;
a con ten: s developed the silk industry of
" Europe.
\ There Is ?n elusive delicacy about'
the French silks that quite defies description.
Many of the French pat-;
terns aro onite hd to date and are said
j to be In line for any revival of styles.;
This is particularly true of the tiny j
] patterns in checks, blue, red, green and ;
brown in fields of white silk, all of
j which are adapted to cravats. The
gorgeous colors are shown in the silks
- of upholsteries; the most delicate and
k evanescent in those evidently intendj\
ed for women's apparel or draperies.
Wonderful dyes the French weavers
I used, vegetable dyes that increase in
their beauty as the years go by. Gold,..
( pure yellow, brilliant gold, is shown;
t white, ivory, flesh, coral, turquoise, apr
ricot, ocean preen, ashes of rose,
. chartreuse, b uey n;ai?!e, geranium,
J scarlet, card).. garnet and a thousand
other tints that would be hard
k to match today even when we have 1
. 323 shades of navy blue alone. 8
The 'strength and durability of the 1
silks in this collection, some of which
are hundreds of yeajs old, suggest that
with reasonable care they are proof
[ against disintegration of the t ages.
. There^fe not a crocked, worn or thin
j sample among them. The brilliance of c
j their dyes, some of whose formulas 1
i are at present lost to the world, is |
j evidence tnar me worio may uever
! be forced to be completely dependent
' j upon any one nation for Its dyes and
1 that the forgotten lore in the art of
i dyeing fabrics reveals the varied fu*
\ ture that may be revived under the
' ; spur of necessity.

| i One of the Last of Old-time "Reds."
, i Tom-o-Wah-Teet, who remembered
. the first coming of the white man to
I the Klickitat valley, Washington
state, has gone to the happy hunting 1
j grounds at the age of at least one j m
t ! hundred and ten. He was known andj *
? liked by everyone in the region, and ~
. would tell vividly of the events' of
days when white people invaded the
territory of the .Yaklmas and Klicfei-?
\ tats. He was present at the council
I of Walla Walla plains in 1855. and
t was a warrior under Kamiakin In the
. Yakima Indian war that followed. He
j took part in the block bouse batt^
and massacre of white settlers at the
Cascades, where Lieut. Philip H. Sheridan
was in command of the troops
r sent from Fort Vancouver to defend
e j the garrison. After the revolt was
j | crushed Tom-o-Wah-Teet was always
R | friendly to the whites, and his many
s I services have been repaid, for since
r i he became nearly blind about five
e j years ago and could no longer support
v j himseJf and his aged squaw by work-!
a 1 ing on farms, those h^ once aided hav?
P looked after his wants. i

n Fewer Accidents Now, and Why.
War conditions, by bringing large,
j cambers of new and unsmiiea wore-;
n ?rs into industry, had iij general the j
! effect of increasing considerably the j
o number of industrial accidents, both:
actually and relatively to the number i
[ of persons engaged in certain indus- (
e tries. Information recently received j
by the inspection t^iid investigation!
9 service, department of labor, Indicates, \
however, than in general the number
of such accidents has now returned to
approximately normal figures. In a
comparatively short time before the
r entrance of America into the war, the
effect of workmen's compensation laws
and safety work had reduced the num* j
^ ber of industrial accidents almost 50
per cent. The temporary increase due
- to the influx of war workers has now
vanished.?Scientific American.
^est Diamond Mine? '
A fabulous fortune awaits the man
who discovers the lost diamond min?
of Arkansas.
There are indisputable indications
that such a mine exists, according to j I
a statement by Capt. Frederick C. I
Packer, an English diamond mining ex- J
pwt who has twice come to this countif
from Kimberly, South Africa, in c
search of the lost mine.
Due to the peculiarity of the natural
process by which diamonds were a
formed in the dim ages of the past. ^
Captain Packer said, the indications
?f a diamond field mnv be found a
' V
Jong distance from the field. These |
'indications have boon found in a cer- e
tain section of Arkansas, but the mine jt:
t* ^ has not born discovered, ir may De ;
