in the far North Pacific ocean These coral chalcedonies were first discovered by a Philadelphia scientist named T A Conrad about 50 years ago and were first described by another Philadelphian Prof Angelo Heilprin a few years later The f os3ils are of both shells and corals although it is only the latter that possess a marked beauty of coloring The corals have become changed from their original composition into chalcedony through as Prof Heilprin believes an infiltration of silicia in a heated condition The fos 6ils nearly all take the form of hollow geodes or hollow pipe stems as the term is and in the former it is on the inside that the chalcedony is found and it occurs in brilliant translucent reds browns whites and blacks Sometimes there are successive layers of different colors which give the whole an appear- ¬ ance of being agate The most beauti ¬ ful however are those which are bril- ¬ liant red and covered with a peachy bloom The pipe stem forms are usually translucent throughout In some cases the geodes although hermetically sealed by nature contain water and from this circumstance are known by the people of Tampa as water stones These forms containing- water which may be seen through the translucent chalcedonjr are somewhat rare and the curio dealers in the south ask extor- ¬ tionate prices for good specimens Many efforts have been made by scien- ¬ tific men to determine the precise method by which the hollowing of these fossil corals was brought about but none of them have thus far been will ¬ ing even to hazard a guess which they would like to see in cold print Some- ¬ times the geodes contain wet sand and this is nearly as curious as the water only in the case of the sand it cannot be fceen through the chalcedony These curious and exceedingly beau ¬ tiful gem like chalcedony corals belong to the geological period known as the Lower Miocene system It is not a re ¬ mote period when the vast age of the earth is considered but long enough to make
