and Nea0 Yorker therein. In 1913, Mr..
Mr.. Greeley was elected to Congress to
fill a vacancy, and served from Dec. |, of
that year, to March 4, 1919. His Con-
gressional career was chiefly distinguish.
ed by his opposition to the gross abuse
of the mileage system. In 1850 he pub
lished volume of lectures and essays,
under the title of "Hints Toward Re
FORM and during the following year
made voyage to Europe. During his
stay in England he served as iuryman
at the Crystal Palace Exhibition, and on
his return published u volume entitled
"G.impses at Europe" In 1856 he
wrote and published " History of the
Struggle for Slavery Extension and Re-
striction, from 1887 to 1856" In 1859
he trrveled overland to California, where
he received a very cordial greeting, and
was called upon to make a number Of
public addresses upon politics, the
Pacific railroad, temperance, and vari.
nances of secession, Mr.. Greeley, in COM
mon with other distinguished men, ad.
vocated the policy of permitting their
departure in peace. Mr.. Greeley, after
the rebellion had been virtually crushed,
became engaged in compiling history
of the late civil war, together with the
causes which led to it, and the work
was published under the title of a i" His
tory of the American Conflict"
Within the succeeding five years he
also published treatise on agriculture,
bearing the title " What | Know OF
Farming" and also an autobiography
entitled Recollections of Busy Life"
He also delivered numerous addresses
on agricultural and social topics, aside
from his uninterrupted labors as editor
of the New York Tribune.

How the World Will End-A Fearful
Look Ahead.

Planets are continually intcgrating
ditfused materials which they encounter
in their progress through space, and it
has been estimated that the earth adds
to itself nearly one hundred and fifty
billions of such meteoric particles every
year. Secondly, it has been proved that
every planet must be slowly losing q
part Of its molar motion of graviatjon.
Tho effect of tidal waves, which are
caused by the gravitation of LIQUID TO-.
ward other planetary bodies, is to retard
diurnal rotation; and, in fact, the ter
restrial day is heightened by reason Of
the friction of the tides, and is destined
in the remote future to give abou. 4S5
hours between sunrise and sunset
The earth is also losing molecular mo-
ton by radiation. That some terrestrial
heat is lost without compe easation-and
very slowly, of course-can hardly be
doubted and for the state of things
thus untimely to be produced we may
find parallel in the present condition
of the moon. That appears to afford
an example of the universal death which
in an inconceivably distant future awaits
the entire solar system. If alons with
the dissipation of the molar and mole
cular motions the planets are also losing
angular velocity, this loss of motion viii
ultimately result in their integration
with the sun. OF two facts which bear
upon the subject, one (familiar to all
tardation of Encke's comet by the re-
sistance of the medium through which
it moves.
The other, which, so far as | know,
has not hitherto been mentioned, is that
all the planets are nearer the sun than
they ought to be, according to Bodies
law, the variation being most conspcu,
Gus, as might be expected, in the case
of Neptune. 1t is at least worthy of
notice that the discrepancy is such as
might have been caused by q slow djmi
mutton of the angular velocities of the
planets. Another fact, that the inter
planetary spaces are filled with matter,
and that, consequently, all planetary
bodies rushing through them must meet
with resistance and lose momentum,
proves that immense momentum will be
eaten up by the resisting force.
This loss of tagential momentum must
bring all the planets into the sun. AS
tne tne plaHet Slowly oTa"s Heai inc
sun its lost tangential momentum is re-
placed, and somewhat more than re
placed, 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 earth and the sun alone in such
a collision would suffice to produce a
temperature Of nearly 100000 degrees
centigrade. OF course disintegration
would Immediately follow, and the next
stage is the dissipation of the whole into
a pebula.-Prof. John Fiske.

to the falling Off in the accuracy with
which the Times used to be printed in

"there was well paid official in

tected after the publication" "Not a

are these mere clerical errors. They

work. The thread used issof exquisite

ground rooms, where it is sufficiently
moist to prevent the thread from sepa
rating. 1t is so delicate as scarcely to
be seen, and the room is so arranged
that the light admitted shall fall upon
the work. 1t is such material that il
renders the genuine Brussels ground SC
costly. On piece of Valenciennes not
two inches wide, from two hundred to
three hundred bibbins are sometimes
used; and for larger with as many as
eight hundred on the Same piece.

A LahOr.SaYing Item.

Many ladies prefer to attend to the
more delicate parts of cookery them
selves, as the pie and cake baking, etc. {;
they have a natural fondness for it, or
they feel that it is well for them to take
unintentional distu bance they some
time make in poor Bridget's dominions!
OF course it is the part Of a well-trained
domestic to run at her mistress beck
and call to supply all her needs, to
"clean up after her." and to make no
remarks but, on the other hand, every
lady should do her work as neatly aud
with as little disturbance of kitchen
routine as possible. 1t is a mistake, for
instance, to suppose that each distinct
operation in cake-making, to be neatly
done, requires the use of Il separate
utensil Here are sugar, flour, butter,
and milk to be measured, eggs to be
beaten, and soda to be dissolved. One
flour, as they are both dry, and after
ward for the butter and milk. Soda
may be dissolved in the bowl in which
the eggs are beaten, after the eggs have
been added to the cake. When all is
finished it will be found that very few
dishes have been so;led. This is OF
course small item, but it "tells in the
long rum"
In Pacific railway traffic an interest
ing item is the shipment from San
Francisco east of a consignment of pears
and grapes for a gentleman in Belfast,
Ireland. 1t went forward by Wells,
Fargo e Co. S express, and was expected
to reach is destination in twenty days
Sending these "extra hazardous" per
ishable goods half way around the globe
is certainly striking incident of mod
ern transportation.
