UNEARTHS OLD-TIME GUN
EUREKA, Dec. 16.—An interest
ing relic of pioneer days has been
uneartded by Morris Carpenter, a
rancher residing on the shores of
Sophie Lake. Apparently it is a
remodeled gun, the barrel being the
old Lee-Enfield pattern, had-made
and muzzle-loading, which at about
the year of 1836 was the United
States government rifle. The
breech works are of the Marlin
Bjllard patent of 1851, and pro
bably were put on at a later date,
when it was converted from a muz
z'e-loader to p. breech loader with
a. ste trigger attachment.
In connection with the finding
of this relic it is reported that
somethng over a year ago Horace
Brown, while hunting in the same
vicinity in which the gun was found
stumbled across a part of a human
skull, which is now in the pos
session of Sanm McCarty, a business
man of Fortine. That there is
some relationship between the find
ing of these two objects in the
same vicinity is highly probable.

REMARKABLE ALLOY CALLED
“INVAR”
The city of Philadelphia, acting
on the recomendation of the Frank
lin Institute of that city, has a
warded the John Scott legacy
medal and premium to Dr. Charles
Edward Guillaume of Sevres France
for his alloy metal, invar. This
alloy, which is approximately a 36
per cent, nickel steel, has been
found to be remarkable for its
small rate of change of size with
alternation of temperature.
Some specimens have been pre
pared with a temperature co-ef
ficient sensibly zero, while others
have very small co-efficients which
may be either positive or negative -
Ry using this alloy in clock making
it has been possible to give atten
tion to small corrections which had
previously been wamped by the out
lying irregularities left uncorrect
in the older methods of temperature
compensation. In the measurment
of base lines for triangulation work
in surveying, invar tapes are large
ly employed, and this has led to
increased accuracy, notably les
sening the time required in cary
ing out such work.
Invar standards are also employed
in accurate laboratory work, and
the alloy has been used to some
extent in eletric lighting in connec
tion with the seals of lamps.

The word “Sterling, as applied
to money, is said to be derived from
'’‘Easterling,” a name for the Ger
mans who traded with England in
the 12ih. and 13th. centuries. Their
mon-y was made of a singularly
pu metal; hence sterling became
a standard of value.
