DEATH OF n ANA

While the Knoxville papers were
parties to a hoax on the people Of
that section in representing that
Santa Ana would make his appear
ance in that city on the Fourth of
July the old warrior was even then
dead. He died in the City of
Mexico, according to the morning
dispatches, on the 2sth of June. A
few years ago, when he was residing
on the Island of st. Thomas, his
death was reported, the papers of
the country publishing his obituary
at great length. He was born at
Jalapa in 1898 and was a conspicu-
Gus figure in Mexico more than
half his eventful life. He was a
daring, ambitious, cold-blooded
man, such as only the semi-civili-
cation and the opportunities of
Mexico could have produced. Yet
his abilities were Of such a high
order hat he would make his mark
in church or state in almost any
country in the world. 1t may
be that he was unable to con-
troll some of the massacres that
occurred under him, yet the peo-
pie of this country will always hold
him responsible for the butchery of
Dayy Crockett and his heroic COM
patriots at Alamo. The world,
however, is lenient toward great
who style themselves war
riors, and when Sam Houston cap
tured Santa Ana at San Jacinto
the great outlaw was treated as a
distinguished and honored man.
was exiled from his own coun-
try at last, and it was only a few
years ago that he was permitted to
return to the scenes of his early
where the little remnant
of his days was spent in peace and
poverty. And thus passeth away
the glory of man.

advantages obtained by the great botanic
cordial over its formidable adversary. Mala-
rial fevers, constipation. terpidity Of the liver

this oonqueror and preventive Of disease.

life it is also an excellent specific. 1t hastens

Popular Science Monthly.l

Popular Science MOnthly.l
The earth turns on its axis from
west to east, and with it rotates
daily the enormous envelope of the
atmosphere. The velocity of rota-
ton at the equator is something
over one thousand miles an hour;
at thirty degrees distance it is
about one hundred and fifty miles
less. In higher latitudes it is still
less, and at the poles nothing.
Therefore, whenever the air moves
north and south on the surface Of
the earth 1t viii carry with it less or
greater velocity Of the rotation than
the place it passes over, and will
turn into an easterly or westerly
wind, according as it approaches or
recedes from the equator. In the
region Of the suns greatest heat
the air, rarefed and ~lightened, is
continually rising, and cooler cur
rents come in on both sides to take
the place of the ascending volume.
As these side currents come from a
distance of about thirty degrees
from the equator, they have, at
starting, an eastward velocity many
miles an hour less than the local..
ties they viii eventually reach.
Consequently they will appear to
lag behind in all the course of their
progress to the equator-that is,
they will have a westerly motion
united with their north and south
movements These are the great
trade winds, blowing constantly
from the northeast on this side,
and the southeast on the other side
Of the equator.

pie. Not more than one white per-
son in five in all this country works
regularly at anything. The rest are
aristocrats and loafers. But they
say the Indians are heather and
have no rights which the whites
should respect Perhaps the In
dams regard themselves as Chris
tians and us as the heather. This
is a debatable question with strong
arguments on both sides. If We
are a Christian people we have not
illustrated the fact in our public
policy toward the Indians.

this campaign General Sherman says;
We are doing this at the special re-
quest Of the Indian Department. 1t
does not originate with the War Depart
ment at all. Our purpose is to drive
these Indians, who are of the very wild
est and most savage sort, down on the
reservation. You can say, we will do it
now or exterminate them"
