The End of the World.

A lecture delivered at the Berlin Uni
versity some three months ago by Pro
fessor Dubois Raymond bears the ON
nous title, "The End of Our World, -
and says that every movement upon our
planet, with the exception of the ebb
and flood, which are caused by the at
traction of the moon, is occasioned by
solar heat. As, however, the sun loses
every year a portion of his caloric, sci
ence has lately come to the conclusion
that he will not exist as an emitter of
warmth longer than for Il 200, 900 years
to come. During that space of time our
earth will get colder and colder, in pro-
portion as the solar heat shall diminish
The ice will advance from the poles to
the equator; the earth's population will
gradually reccde before the advancing
glaciers; the sun will become less and
less luminous, until he will present the
appearance of II daIk-rcd bail and final
u ice will annihilate all vitality on our
planet.-Nctc York. SIN.

The Figures that Killed Louis.

Mr.. Monselet publishes in the Ecenc-
neH one of those ''curiouS calculations
about fatidical numbers, which some
one works out after every catastrophe
to an illustrious parsonage. The Prince
Imperial received seventeen assegai
wounds, whereupon the calculator works
out seventeen to have been always I'M
lucky for the family of the Napoleons
The letters forming the name of Napo-
leon Bonaparte are seventeen in num-
Der. Napoleon III. was born in 1908,
which, by an addition of the figures,
gives seventeen. Mile. De Montijo was
born in 1896, which also produces sew
enteen, rs does 1858, the date of the
imperial marriage. Between 1858 and
1870, when the empire fell, seventeen
more years elapsed, and the Prince I'M
perial was seventeen years old when his
father died. lie Lieutenant Carey :"
is composed of seventeen letters, and,
finally, by adding the figures of 1862,
when Prince Victor was born, You get
seventeen, which is precisely his age AT
the present moment. Mr.. Mon~clct very
nationally observes that all this proves
nothing, but that the coincidence is sin
gular.
