A Chicago Mans veriilcation OF the
Bible.

A story is going around among the
travelling men, 50 thoroughly illustrative
Of the push, tear and scramble in the
ordinary business mans character that
it is worth repeating. As the story
goes, q Chicago Board Of Trade man set
out to do" Europe and the East in
a week or ten days, or such matter. In
youth he had absorbed some New Testa-
ment legends, and felt sudden interest
on arriving in the Holy Land to cross
the Sea of 0alilee. The laziness Of the
ferryman and the indescribable slowness
Of the craft terribly exasperatcd the
Chicago man, when he testify inquired:
"See here, stranger, how long have
you been runnin' this ferry?"
"Forty-five years, was the placid and
lazy answer.
"Who held it before your" asked
Chicago.
"My father, who ran it fifty years, !"
was the calm reply.
well, how long has this burned
monopoly been in your family, any
how 2"
Three thousand years." pensively
spoke the ferryman, rs his dreamy gaze
wandered to the palm trees upon the
shore.
"Well, by thunder!" shouted the
Chicago man, with muttering disgust,
lit is no wonder Christ wanted to walk
over !"-CHicaQ0 Tribune.

Many Of the leading orchard proprie-
tors in Northern Italy and Southern
Germany are cultivators Of the common
black ant, which insect they hold in
high esteem ~ the fruit-grower's best

orchards, and leave the police service Of
their fruit trees entirely TO the tiny col

ING up the stems Of the fruit trees,
cleansing their boughs and leaves Of
malefactors, mature as we'll - embryotic,

The celebrated English astronomer.
Richard A. Proctor, has been giving an
opinion which, if based on correct con-
illusions, is startling one in reference
to the comet Of 1860. In his view, trou-
BILE Of serious character to our earth
impends. It is alleged that the comets
return has been reduced from ITS to
thirty-seven years, and that it will APP
pear again in about seventeen years,
with improbability of being absorbed by
the sun. 1t is intimated that Sir Isaac
Newton entertained the same opinion,
and predicted future trouble from this
source. As the comet nears the sun its
velocity is increased. It's present veloc-
ity is estimated at 800 miles second.
and it is thought the danger lies, "not
from absorption Of SO much matter as
may exist in that comets head and nu-
cleus, but from the conversion OF the
momentum Of the swiftly revolving mass
of the comet into heat, the thermal
equivalent of its mechanical energy"
Mr.. Proctor says: II have for my
own part been long Of opinion that the
periodical increase of such stars q Mira
lthe wonderful starr in the Whale, and
Eta Of the ship Argo. is due to tho mo-
ton Of some large comet followed by a
historic train about these two stars. If
ever the day is to come when the heavens
shall dissolve with fervent heat, the
cause Of the catastrophe will be the
downfall Of some great comet on the
sun" He asserts it is his opinion that
the comet referred to will certainly be
absorbed by the sun, and claims that,
cas- its period is diminishing rapidly, /"
it may fall into the sun ut an early
date, /" with the alarming immediate re-
suit that "all the higher forms Of life at
least, both animal and vegetable, will be
destroyed off the surface Of the earth
Aud, though in few days the sun
might resume his ordinary luster, and
no longer glow with abnormal heat. he
would pour his rays on family Of
worlds in which not one Of the higher
forms Of either vegetable or animal life
would remain in existence" It remains
for some other astronomers Of equal
ability to confirm or dispute the theories
Of Mr.. Proctor. He may be more sci
entific, though no more reliable, than
the bogus Mother Shipton," whose
world-renowned prognostication,
The world TO an end will come
