forefathers died The sick are no LONGER bled

their shaver heads. Ever since the On OF

The End of our solar system.

Professor John Fiske in his lecture on "the
nebuiar hypo hesis'' in New York on Tuesday,
made some startling statements as to the pro-
cesses going on in the solar system and their
probable results on the globe on which we live,
move and have our being. but as the terrestrial
snIash-up il reserved for the ''remote futureD
we don't see after all that we need worry our
selves much about it. The professor SAYS that
planets are continually migrating diffused
materials which they incumber in their progress
through space, and il has been estimated that
the earth adds to itself nearly one hundred and
nifty billion such meteoric PARTICLES each year.
Secondly, il has been proved that every planet
must be slowly losing part of its molar motion
or rotation The effect OF the tidal waves, which
are caused by the gravitation OF liquid matter
toward other planetary bodies, is 10 retard dur
nal rotation; and, in fact, the terrestrial day is
frightening by reason Of the friction of the
tides, and il destined in the remote future 10
give about $50 hours between sunrise and sun
set- How about your eight hours for a days
work when that time comes?
The present condition of the moon-a de I'D
planet of igneous rocks without water or an
atmOsphere-affOrds an example, says the pro-
tessor, OF the universal death which In an incon-
ceiyably distant future awaits the entire solar
system. In along with the dissipation of the
molar and molecular motions the planets are
also losing angular velocity, this loss of motion
will ultimately result in their Indignation with
tie sun. As the planet slowly draws near the
sun its tangential momentum is replaced, and
somewhat more than replaced, by the added
velocity due to the increased gravitative force
exerted by the sun at the shorter distance. at
the last the planet must strike the sun with
tremendous force. The heat generated by the
Garth and sun alone in such a collision would
ssffice to produce a temperature of nearly
100000 degrees, centTigrade. That is good
deal hotter than the present heated term. Of
course, dsintegration would immediately follow,
and the next stage is the dissipation OF the whole
into a nebula. The question of q new era of
evolution presents an impossible barrier. We
can only catch vague glimpse OF astupendous
rhythmical alienation between the eras of
evolution and eras of dissolution, succeeding
each other without vestiges of beginning, and
without prospect OF an end.

Several cities are making strong efforts to
suppress the trade in the vile literatuse, So
called, which is poisoning the very foundations
OF society by cOrruptiDg the minds and hearts of
little children. The Chicago city councils has
passed stringent bill prohibiting the sale of
obscene books, papers or pictures in that CITY;
and in New York the society for the suppression
OF obscene literature are making heavy seizu res
OF dlsreputable books. We hope soon to have
such law in this district and should have a
society to aid in its enforcement.

By what authority has Washington been made
an asy lam for small pox patients from Virginia?
HE Alexandria Gdzette of last evening says
g. case of smallpox was reported near Mills
cross roads, Fairfax county, few DAYS age, and
the patient Immediately carried to a hospital in
Washington" This matter should be looked
into, 30 that 1T may be aseertained who is re-
sPonsible for the importation of contagion into
our city from the Old Dominion. 1.-The mother
OF Presidents" ought certainly to be able to
take care of her own smallpox cases.
