Why the Needle Points Northerly.

The reason why the needle points
to ths northerly direction is that
the earth In itself is magnet, at
tracing he magnetic nee'IIe as the
ordinary nagcels do and the earth
is a magnet as the result of certain
cosmicsl facts, much affected by
the action of the sun. These laws
have periodicities, all Of which have
not rs yet been determined. The
inherent and ultimate reason of the
existence of any fact in nature, AS
gracily, light, heat, etc, is not
known further than that it is in
harmony with all facts in nature.
Even an earthquake is in perfect
harmony with, and the direct re-
sultant Of, the action of forces act
iEg under general laws. A con-
densed explanation in regard to the
needle pointing to the northward
and southwark is az follows: TIE
magnetic poles OF the earth do not
coincide with the geographical
poles. The axis of rotation makes
an angle of abont % degrees with
Il line joint to the former. The
northern magnetic pole is at pres
ent near the Arctic circle on the
meridian OF Omaha Hence the
needle does not everywhere point to
the astr ,nomlcal north, and is con
stantly variable within certain linn
its. At San f a,ci,co it points
abont II degrees 10 the cas- o
nor h, and at Calais, Maine, as
much to the west. AT the northern
magnetic pole baIanced needle
points wi h its north end downward
in a plnnp line; j; at San Francisco
it dips about 63 degrees, and at the
southern magnetic pale the south
end points directly down. The ac-
ton of the earth upon magnetic
needle 1T lis surface is of about the
same forcc as that Of hard stee
magnet, 40 inches long, strongly
,naynetized, at distance of one
foot. The foregoing is the accept
ed explanation OF the fact that the
needle points to the northward and
southwark. OF course no ultimate
reason can be given for this natural
fact any more than for any other
observed fact in nature.

How Long Man May Live.
tFtum tbs Springfield ReptftHican.1


It was Prof. Hafc1and's 6p'nicn : ;
that the limit of possible human
life might be set at 200 years. This
on the general principle that tile
life of a creature Is eight times tl,s !
years OF it's period OF growth. That
which is quickly formed quickly
perlshes ard the earlier completes
Development is reached the sooner
bodily decay ensnes. More women
reach es73 age than men, but more
men attain remarkable longevity }
than women. Some animals grow /,
to be very old. Horned animals
live shorter lives than those with
ont hcrns, fierce longer than timid,
and amphibious longer than those
which inhal,lt tho arr The voro--
cious pike exists, it is said, to an
age OF $50 years the turtle is good
for a 100 years or more; and
among birds the golden eagle is
known to have lived nearly two
hundred years or more ) and while
the sly and sombre crow reaches
the venerable age of century.
Passing up in tho scale of lite to
man, and skipping tho pairiarchs,
we find many recorded instances
of longevity among tho classic
Greeks and Romans. Pliny notes
that in the reign OF the Emperor
Vespasian, in the year 76, there
there were 127 men living in the
limited area between the Appen-
mines and the Po OF 100 years and
upward, three of whom were 14V
and four over 135. Cicero's wife
lived to the age of 1O3, and tho
Roman actress Luceja, played iD
pnbic as late AS her ll2tIl year.
Coming down to more recent
times the most notable authentic
instance of great age is that OF
Henry Jenkins, "f Yorkshire, Eng
land, and who died in 1870. 100
yeas old. II, was fishcrnarr
aud at the age of 100 easily swan
across rapid rivers. Another his
toric case is that of Thomas Parr,
of Shropshire, day laborer, who
lIved at the age of l52 years. When
more than 12O he married his sec
ond wife, and till 130 he could
swing the scythe and WELD the fail
18th ,he best of his fellow laborera
In his 1924 year Parr went mp to
L 'ndon TO exhibit himself to the
King. 1t proved an unlucky visit,
for violating the abstemlous habit
of a century and a-half the old man
teasted so trecl y on the royal vict-
uals that he soon died merck 81 n
plethora On examination his IN
ternal organs proved to be in excel.
lent condition, and thsre was no
reason why he should not have liv.
ed much longer save for this nntort-
innate tase of royal hospitality.
Prof lIufeloll of centenarians in
clude many more remarkable cases,
among them that Of Mittlestedt, a
Prnssian soldier who served Ct
years under both Frcdericks, fight.
ing many battles and enduring
much hard campaigning. and who
after all this married successively
three wives the last when he was
ITO. only two years before his
death.

Richer tkax the Indies.

On lbs arr igaI at home from his
Southern tour, Col Mcclure was
interviewed by New York Herald
writer ia regard to the condition
and prnspec's of the South, and
among other thir gs he said:
."The South to-day seems TO me to
present the most magnificent field for
Industry and Investment i'll the wotid.
She has raised $500, 900 500 WORTH
or cotton this year, and ther. can be
no doubt that the annual production,
so far from diminishing, wIll grow

or at problem before her now Is to con-
vert it into the manufactured article
instead Of sending the rau material a

That problem she ls working out and
with the most profitable results. 1t
is almost impossible to picture the
prosperity of the Sosth when that
day shall come. She wiz be richer
than ever India was. just consider
the advantages she posses 'es. The
cllna,e canaot be surpassed. IaboT

ic superiority, it always must be cheap
<er in .he South than in the North.

anomaly; it is "a st al the laws Of
frade, and it L. imPoss be that it
should last. Carital always seeks the
most profitable field in which it c.,n
| operate fed in which it ell find

social condi ion of the South repelled
capital. Neither the capitalist nor the
greasy mechanic was welcome unless
tie one came in the form of planter
and slave owner and the other of a
slave driver. Bat as | have said, all
that has been changed"
1t is grtits ing that these state
ments Will have the benefit of th
UefuII's immense circulation, both
in TINS country and abroad, and
sanst result in great good. The
South certainly owes Col. Mcclure
a debt Of gratitude for putting it
right before the world.

The loss on the building was about $500.

saved, but much of it was badly damaged
and was not insured. The alarm was sound
ed about half an hour before the water from
the engine was brought to bear upon the
flames. A serious delay occurred by the ex-
haustion of the supply of water from one Of
the reservoirs, considerable time being lost
in changing over to another reservoir. They
succeeded in saving the ell and barn, but the
main portion was totally destroyed.
