ORR GOMEZ

Professor Proctor, IN a communication
to the New York Herald, et;ectually dis
poses Of the alleged danger to the solar
system by a comets fall into the sun,
He shows that SIR Isaac Newton's fear
that if a comet like that OF 1850 fell into
the sun the effect would be such an in
crease of solar heat that animal life on
the earth would be fatally affected rest
ed npou erroneous views of the mass of
matter in such a comet. That the
comets entire mass is not very great,
says Mr.. Proctor, SIS clear from the cir
cumstauce that not the slightest observa-
BILE change has been produced in the mo-
ton Of any planet on any one Of the &C.
casions on which this THE present. comet
has been for a while close alongside the
sun, adding the whole Of its attractive
action to his But even were the
comets mass much greater than it is, and
its addition to the u as fuel for the solar
fires capable OF raising the solar tempera-
ture very considerably, the solar heat
would not Immediately be followed by a
proportionate increase Of sensible terres-
trial temperature. The effect Of an
excessive general heating OF the air, Mr..
Mattieu Williams, another English sci
enlist, tells US for our comfort, would be
that the equatorial air current would
s'carry more hot air northward over our
heads and cause a greater quantity OF
cold northern air to flow upon the sur
face in our latitudes." Paradoxical as
this seems, such would undoubtedly be
the first effect Of a grand outburst OF
solar heat upon the extra tropical lati-
tudes Of our planet; while in u equa-
torial regions, where the SUMS thermal
excess would be most seriously felt, the
immediate effect would be a great in.
crease Of evaporation from the equa-
torial oceans and the consequent forma-
tiou of a dense vapor screen, which
would temporarily shield the torrid
zone from the SUMS blaze. Though we
have nothing to fear from the comets
fall into the sun, Mr.. Proctor's letter to
the Herald suggests a very interesting
and practical problem-the effects upon
terrestrial meteorology of abnormal tluc-
tuatious in the amount Of heat sent US by
the sun-which, in the light OF Professor
Langley's recent researches, it is highly
important astronomers and m]eteorolo-
gists should attack. But, though danger
to the sun is not involved in the gyra-
tions of the flaming wanderer, important
electrical effects upon the earth are at
tributed to it in the interesting article
referred to.

THE LOGICAL OUTCOME.

The New York Times, a radical Re-
publican journal, reads Mr.. Arthur and
Mr.. Conkling a lecture which the Associ-
ated Press has been kind enough to send
on for the edifieation Of the readers OF
the SENTINEL. In the face of l12,0oO
majority for Cleveland it behooves the
Times or any other radical sheet to seek
a salvo. To u mind, whatever OF man.
illness is left to the Republican polltl-
clans after a long and powerful season OF
f~attening at the public crib is not to be
looked for among the half-breeds who
affect t~eetotalism and carry Sunday
school phylacteries around for frontlets.
Ii there ever was a contemplate, bowel
less crowd in this country's national pol
tiles it was the unctuous goody'goodles
with Fraud Hayes for chief. As for
Arthur, he is not anybody, but with all
his iobbery and iamming in New York
wards, he is too good to be named along
with the Fraudulency's following. Arthur
is a Simon pure accident. For very
luck he has been the fool, while q real
big man, Conkling, has gone sizzling
done by mishap. The Times lectures
the least Objectionable man in a bad out
fit when it scolds Conkling. 1t looks
much as though the Times were sound
ing the rally for the demoralized ragtag
and bobtail of the Republican party.
All other strategic resources having
failed it may be j straw that the Times
is snatching at-the possibility of vitaliz-
ing the shattered remains Of "moral
ideas" by the imposition of a new name.
