what Win BecO00 - The Last

Vsrious ,heories that have been seriously
maint.ined by scientific men ere described in
the Scientitic American. aud we summarize
them:
l. The surface of the earth ie steadily
diminished, elevated regions are being low
cred and the seas are filling up. The land
will at last be oil submerged, and the last
man will be starved or drowned.
9 The ice is gradually accumula,ing At
the North Pole and melting away At the
South Pole, the consequence Of which will
he an awful catastrophe when the eanh's cen.
ter Of gravity suddenly changea The last
man will then be drowned by the rush Of
waters.
The earth can not always escape . col.
lision with . comet. and when the disaster
comes there will he . minyling Of air and
cone,ary gas, causing IN explosion. II the
last man 10 no, sufocaied be will be blown
| up.
4. There 10 q retardins medium in space,
causing . gradual loss Of velocity in the plan.
ets, aud the earth, obeying the law Of gravi.
tation, will GET closer and closer TO the sun.
The last man will be sunsuuck.
| S. The smount Of water on the earth is
slowly diminishing, snd simultaneously the
air is losing in quantity. Finally, the earth
will be arid waste, like ths moon. The last
man will 10 su6ocssed.
| 6. Other suns have disappeared, and ours
must sooner or later, blaze up. and then dis
appear. The intense heat Of the conAagrs.
| sion will xiii every living thing on earth. The
lsss man will Be burned up.
| 7. The SUMS fire will gradually burn tns
the temperature will cool. The eanA's gla'
eisl zones will enlarge, driving our rses
towards the equator, until the habi,able space
will lesson to nothing. The last man will b
frozen - death.
8. Gradual cooling Of the earth will pre-
duce enormous assures, like ihoss seen in the
moon. The surface will become extremely
unstable, until the remnant of hsma,iiy viii
refuge to caves. The hast man will b
crushed in his subserranesn retreat
9. The earth 1t last Will separate into
small frsgmenis, leaving the people wi,hou
q EooshoId. The las, mae will have dread
full fall through space.
10. The tenth theory, proving that there
will be no last man u oil, 10 thus expressed
"Evolution does not necessarily iwply progress
and possibly the rsce may have retrogsadet
until the human being possesses the nature
Of the plant louise such being the case, thi
