A PARROT STORY.

My father was an old gentleman who
was very tegulariin lhiS habits. Every
eveningitjwa his cuptoh toItahs a stroIl
after tea to visit some old friends of the
name of Tate, who lived in the next
street Before leaving the house he
would open the door of the dining-rOOm
where we used to sit, and would say
aloud, r"0nly going down to Tate's."
Now it happened one evening that Polly's
CAGE door was, leftopen, We sometimes
let him walk about the room when he
was very good, as a1great treat. This
evening we suddenly missed him from
the room, and could not think where he
had gone. We all set to work and search
ing sthe house high and low; no Polly
.cSuM we find. So st last my father left,
as usual ITO pay his visit to our neighbors,
leaving us still looking for cur pet. What
waslhis surprise upon turning the corner
Of the street to see Polly quietly wAd-
ding down the middle of the road.
"Wby, Polly" said he, where are you
going3" Upon which Master Poll cooked
his impudent little head on one side and
looked up and said, "Only going down

AS the moon has no atmosphere it is perfectly clear
that the smoke of volcano could not rise but would
flow down the mountain side just as carbonc acid gas
does in ordinary air The study Of all these things
brought the Professor TO the consideration OF the time
Of the death of the EARTH day OF which he spoke
Dies irae dies lila.
Solvet saecum in faviila,
saying that the subject painful one. but that
death might occur TO the earth just as TO tho
individual II might be by the slow process
OF natural decay 1t might be sudden. And,
lest any Of his hearers might be sceptical with
regard TO the latter supposition he would inform them
that last summer star in the constellation OF tha
Crown suddenly gave 500 times its
customed heat. Contact with of the enormous
planets might produce the effect upon
the sun, and the result need not be dwet
upon Emerson quoted saying that there
fnality in astronomy and Kirke White the effect
that what consider death may only be another form
of life. The possibility of the transfer Of life from
planet to planet and system to system very eo-
queny dwet upon and the remarks upon this subiect
brought this very entertaining and instructive lecture

The following four diagrams represent the planet

and these four views represent with tolerable
accuracy the relative proportions of solid
continent and water that planet 1t
VIII be observed that the solid continent
and the water nearly equal which points to decay
and decreptude in the planet nasmuch as all planets,
either under or in their prime, have considerably more
water than solid continent Hence II is inferred that
Mars is considerably beyond his prime The second
diagram is map OF Mars by Professor Proctor made

oceans OF planet were gradually drawn TO the in

THE SENATE INVESTIGATION.

TEE INQUIRIES INTO THE WORKINGS OF THE
POLICE AND PARK DEPARTMENTS CONTINUED
Another session OF the Senate Committee was held
yesterday at the Fifth Avenue Hotel Inquiries into
the workings of the Police Department and the Depart
OF Parks continued The first witness exam
ined civil engineer in the Department Of Parks
Mr. F. Q. Morrison He testified that while working
High Bridge he had frequently seen men In the
employ Of the Department CT Public Works leave their
work spend their time in the barrooms OF the negh
borhood He was Of the opinion that one good man
would do the work Of more than three of these.
Police Commissioner Smith, who was next examined,
gave evidence similar that given by his colleagues
heretofore The present force he thought was not bv
any means large enough and should be TO az
least 500 men, The posts which the are now
obliged to patrol he considered altogether too long.
The witness thought, with Commissioners Matsell and
Dsbecker, that tho force should be divided into three
grades-to the lowest Of which he would pay $500 to
the next 81 600 and to the highest 81 200 per year
Speaking Of the Street Cleaning Bureau he said he did
not think II advisable to have all connected with the
Police Department The Board of Police should in his
opinion, be empowered 10 dismiss officers from the
force witout trial
Similar testimony was given by Commissioner voor-
his who also added that the total expense of the de.
parment for the year would amount to about
49, $50 900; the expenditures of the Bureau Of Street
Cleaning would be about s775, 900, which 100000
less than the sum expended IN 1874 and $500 600 less
than the expense for the previous year
d. B. Hasbrouck chief OF the Bureau Of Elections,
testneu tat the expenditures necessitated by the last
election would be, IN round numbers, Sl20, 900.
ExPolice Commissioner Hugh Gardner testified
that some provision should DO made by which
the expenses Of the detectives could be promptly
paid II pairoman possessed the neces-
sary qualifications the witness could not sec why
he should have less compensation than one who
had been on the force a number OF years He
then gave detailed statement OF the OF the pull
ing" OF panel house in Fourth avenue, in which n
alleged that Captain Walsh was in collusion with
the thieves He also gave evidence regard to the
case Of Annie Small
The committee then adjourned

On the very day of his arrival he received with
open arms by the Geographical Society, aud meetings
OF the Russian societies for the advancement OF Rus
sian trade and industry subsequently held for
him; while tonight a grand public dinner is to be
given in his honor Private hospitality, too, has been
active The Swedish and Finnish residents and the
scientific men Of the capital have kept him busy with
breakfasts dinners and balls 1t not alone
geographical interests which have SO stirred the Rus
sian public but il is the possblity-long hoped for
but at last given up chmerical-of finding trade
route from the basins OF the Siberian rivers Oh and
Yenisei to the ports Of Europe.
THE KARA
Ever since the discovery OF the Kara Sea, 800 years
ago expeditions have been fitted out for that purpose
but Professor NordensK5ld the FIRST who has ever
sailed through this frozen and dreaded sea to the very
mouth Of the YenseL
ATTEMPTS
during the present century establish commun-
cation perhaps deserve notice. Thus
In 1906, under the direction Of the Ministry Of Com
merce, Count Rumantsef, It was proposed to dig
canal TO unite the blight Of the Oh with Kara Gulf
and thus vessels long voyage. This being found
impossible IL then proposed to unite the Usa,
which flows into the Plethora, with the OBJ; but here
a difficulty caused BY part OF the Ural chain,
which rose a height OF 800 feet between the two
river basins.
In 1892 the schooner Yenisei, under the command
Of Lieutenant Kroto, sailed from Arcuaugel for the
eastern coast OF Nova Zembla with the Intention Of
proceeding to the YenseL IL returned, and
two years later the wreck OF IL found near
Matotchkin Strait OF the captain and nothing
ever heard.
In 1862 Lieutenant Krusensern sailed in the Yermak
from tho Plethora on tho crrand. He got safely
through the Yugorsk Strait but caught in the ice
in the Kara Gulf In latitude 60 deg 81 min north and
longitude 60 deg min. cast and was obliged to leave
the schooner there while he managed to get back the
