Hard upon the anncouncement from Paris of the marvelous qualities of ra- dium and its value for testing the gen- uineness of aiamonds comes a cable- gram stating that making real dia- monds artificially by electricity is a success. These manufactured stones but genuine diamonds made under the same condi- tions that nature employs, that is, heat and pressure, and these absolutely essential factors are obtained by means of the electric furnace. It is also true that they are not large diamonds. Professor Henri Moisson of the Uni- versity of Paris, famous for his re- searches in electro-chemistry, has at last been rewarded in his attempts to reproduce the crystallized gem of na- ture so highly valued by connoisseurs and so much sought after by society. The manufacture of diamonds by the electric furnace process is directly due to Lavolssier, who showed conclusively that the diamond was merely crystal- lized carbonm, just as glass is crystal- lized sand. When this deduction had been made by Lavoissier and had been proven by a complete physical demon- | | | [ { { 1 STENDGRAPHY IN EARLY DAYS Research Shows That It Was in Use in Time of Cicero. Proceeding of Senate Taken in Mystic Characters by Czesar’s £cribes. ——— “It was eminently proper that we should place a tablet over the grave of Thomas Lloyd, the first official stenographer to the American Congress,” said a veteran of the art to a Star reporter, “and I have been deeply Interested in delving into ancient history to find out when and where short- hand reporting was first introduced. Even before the days of printing presses Clcero introduced a system of shorthand report- ing, called the Tyronean m: from Tyro, a freedman, who was Cicero’s most expert writers. That even at that early date systems of shorthand writing—stenography—came into general use for certain purposes, and that the methods were very effective, we may in- fer from a passage in Horace, who, when addressing a shorthand writs says: ‘You write in such a manner that you will have no occasion in four whole years to ask for another sheet of parchment.’ CAESAR’S STENOGRAPHERS. “Julius Caesar, bidding for popularity in his first consulate, caused the proceedings of the Roman Senate to be published daily, and these reports were taken down by trained writers, who were called tabu- laril, being what we to-day style report- ers. These reporters were probably only rapid writers using the ordinary charae- ters. The reports were revised and edited before their exposure to the public eye, and were then circulated even in the dis- tant provinces—just the same as the Con- gressional Record is now sent to the con- stituents of members of our Congress. Prior to this time the great annals of the lawmakers were written on tablets and placed in a room of the pontiff, where they were accessible to the public. The people had to go to the ‘newspaper,’ and it was not delivered at their homes as now. This room of the pontiff was a general reading room, reminding one of the periodical room of the Congressional Library. “Why the ancients had no printing presses it bas been difficult for students to decide, for they had the material for making them and paper and pagchment for printing, and then, as now, there was a heavy and growing demand for reading matter. It was not until the material for writing changed that there was much progress in the matter of spreading the news. The decalogue was written upon tablets of stone; the Athenian record, now known as the ‘Parian Chronicle,” was en- graved upon tablets of marble, and next we find inscriptions on thin plates of metal and on the broad leaves of certain plants, on sheets formed of woyen texture from the bark of trees and on the skins of animals. These heavy and cumbrous ‘volumes’ were as difficult to handle as the iron money imposed upon the Spar- t. he Assyrians came nearer to the printing press than did the Egyptians, for they discovered and practiced a meth- od of rapidly muitiplying their writings, using engraved seals, consisting of cylin- ders from which any number of impres- sions could be made. Naturaily intellec- tual advancement was rapid with the in- troduction of ‘circulating doctiments, books and papers,” for the reading class was then only the wealthy, even in the best days of Roman civilization. The assembled intellect heard the news at the Olympian games and in the Athenian theater. WORK OF EDUCATED SLAVES. “Cicero’s shorthand reporters were the | beginning of the stenographic art, without which we could not get along very well in this age of newspapering.

Tt is gratifying, however, to sten- ographers of the present day to know that we are not slaves as were the writers and shorthand reporters of those days. True we have frequently long hours and laborious work, but one of our profession will earn more in a single day than did When carbon is found uncombined |the anclent reporters in a whole year.

Capital owned labor; therefore, labor was the diamond is found in the celebrated | cheap and without dignity. Authors dined beds of Borneo, Sumatra, Brazil or the Cape of Good Hope it is covered with an opaque layer before its beautiful properties appear. CONCERNING GRAPHITE. Graphite is found in nature in large quantities, and it may be prepared artificially by dissolving charcoal in | melted iron, and when this mixture has | cooled graphite will be deposited; all forms of carbon which are neither dia- mend nor graphite are called amor- phous carbon, meaning simply that they are not cryStallized. Amorphous carbon may be obtained easily by burning wood in a kiln, the resultant product being charcoal, or coal may be fused in a retort, the product being coke; if coke is powdered and mixed with molasses and baked in a furnace upon rarities costing thousands of dol- lars in the case of a single meal, while his slaves who produced his books were near- ly starved. The only cost invelved in the production of a book was the sustenance of the servile writers and embellishers. Publication was carried on just as a plantation was worked in the days before the war. The largest books, with the most beautiful and expensive bindings, could be produced at a far less cost in dollars and cents than they can be made in this day. And the same reasons which prevented modern improvements in the old slave-holding States prevented the in- troduction of the printing press as an or- san of ancient civilization. COPYING BOOKS. “Atticus, a Roman bibliophilist, trained a large number of slaves to the especial the form of carbon used for arc lights GUty of merely transcribing. There were results; the temperature required for obtaining this kind of carbon is very low—a degree ranging from 50 to 200 centigrade being quite sufficient. A curious anomaly relating to graph- ite is that it is one of the best lubri- cators known for machine bearings, whereas carbon, its predecessor, and diamond, its successor, are both so hard and sharp either would cut a steel shaft to pieces in a few seconds. In fact, graphite is so soft that it will leave a mark on paper and is used in the manufacture of lead pencils. GREAT HEAT NEEDED. The degree of heat sufficient to pro- duce arc light carbons, or graphite, is not nearly great emough for the for- mation of crystals. It requires a tem- perature of approximately 6000 degrees to produce very small artificial dia- monds, and when nature made those in her famous diamond beds a heat of probably not less than 10,000 degrees was utilized in the process. The purpose, then, of the electric fur- nace in the electro-chemical production of diamonds is to obtain as high a de- gree of temperature as possible. The electric furnace is an exceedingly simy ple and at once a clever device for pro- ducing high temperatures. In its sim- plest form it consists merely of an electric arc light joined between two five readers for each 100 trained writers in dffferent apartments, and 500 copies of a short poem or small book could be pro- duced rapidly and at little cost, less by far than the ed powers of the with all our modern appliances in the art of printing. These shorthand slaves could produce in twelve hours 500 copies of a poem equal in extent to Tennysen’ ‘Enoch Arden’ and its a poems, and for this work they received one pound of a kind of common corn each, with a small allowance of wine. This kind of ‘feed’ would not go with stenog- raphers of the present day.

A cavity is formed in the lower block for the crucible, which is made of molded carbon. In the earlier experi- ments of Moisson retort carbon was used, but it was found that the intense heat converted the carbon into graph- ite, causing it to swell out of shape. The crucibles are about three inches high and four inches in diameter. When the crucible is set into position in the hollow block of lime the carbons, horizontally, are directed placed carbons of large diameter, the heat of | through the furnace over the mouth of which is concentrated in a little cruci- | the trucible.
