The End of the World.

The age of the earth is placed by
some at five hundred million of years !;
and still others, of later time, among
them the Duke of Argyll, place it at
ten million years, knowing what pro-
cesses have been gone through.
Other planets 90 through the same
process. The reason that other PLAN
cts differ so much from the earth is
that they are in a much earlier or
later stage of existence. The earth
must become old. Newton surmised,
although he could give no reason for
it that the earth would at one time
lose all its water and become dry.
Since then it has been found that
Newton was correct. AS the earth
keeps cooling, it will become porous
and great cavities will pc formed in
the interior. which will take in the
water. 1t is estimated that this pro-
cess is now in progress,so far that the
water diminishes at about the rate OF the
thickness of a sheet of writing paper
each wear. At this rate, in G, 900, 200
wears the water will have sunk a
mile. and in 1000, 900 years every
trace of water will have disappeared
from the face Of the globe. The nit
rogen and oxygen in the atmosphere
are also diminishing all the time. 1t
is in an inappreciable degree, but the
time will come when the air will be so
tein that no creatures We know can
breath it and live; the time will
come when the world cannot sup
port life. That will be the period of
old age, and then will come death.

The Town Hall of Vienna,

The great central tower of the new Town Hall at Vienna, 32O feet high, with the outer building, has been completed and the iron standard bearer placed on the top of it. According to custom the event was celebrated b civic festival The civic aut horities and their guests went, under the guidance o1 the architect. to the roof of the facade of the building. The latter mounted the scaffoldine of tho tower, ornamented with flags and wreaths, and drank the health of the Emper or, the country and the town. The military band struck up the Austrian national anthem and other patriotic songs. The standard bearer having been secured on tho top of the tower, the architect and those with him re- turned to the Great Hall and reported to the Burgon4aster that the tower was finished. The Burgomaster replied, expressing the satisfac- tion of the council at the completion of the tect and all those who had assisted in the work, which was honor to art and the town After the ceremony 200 guest assem. bled for dinner in the cellars of the Town Hall. In the row of monumental public buildings which extends from tho Burg to for it's mass and height, is (the Vienna cor respondent of the London ZSnaes says) un. doubtedly the most imposing. The hall is a combination of various styles of Gothic arch itecture, rising up from the simplest and earliest to the most forid, all in freestone, and, above all, the upper portions highly ornamented.. The building was begun in 1872, and is now completed outside. The cost was estimated at 10, GOO, ,OOO forins; but it will probably cost IA, ,0O0, 900, if not more before it is finished outside For the gran deur of the halls and State apartments it can probably vie with any building of its kind. It has central court surrounded by areades and six smaller courts, and has, on five floors, 800 rooms and halls. Two grand staircases lead up to the Great Hall, while four other large staircases lead up to the wings. The architect, Frederic Schmidt, comes from Wurtemberg, but has been many years es- tablished in Vienna, where he has built a number of churches and other public build. ings. He has likewise been conducting for Stephens.
