HOW WE CAME HERE.
An Absurd Theory That We were
Dropped From n Meteor.
Prof. Proctor in Belgravia.

FIOI- III DclSIdfia.
Men of science may smuse themselves by
speaking of life being brought to the earth
by the arrival of meteor, in reality a frag-
ment of some once peopled world which has
been destroyed by conflict with another or
by internal disturbance. But this s more a
seietifc jest than a grave reality. Asron-
omy knows nothing of worlds coming into
conflict. On the contrary, the laws OF motion
assure us that if anything is 90 unlikely tn at
it may be regarded as absolutely impossible,
it is the encounter of two orbs in mid space !;
nor have we any reason TO suppose that 4
planet can be rent into fragments by internal
commissions. II we had, we have not the
slightest reason for supposing that orbs thus
unfortunate would be more likely to be in
habited than their more lucky fellow worlds.
If these were inhabited already, we gain
nothing by bringing to them fragments of
other worlds which have exploded; and if
they were not inhabited, while the burst or
shattered worlds were, we are called on to
imagine (for no one can believe) the absurd
ity that only inhabited worlds are liable 10
destruction, for the bent fit of those which are
without inhabii ants. To which absurdity
this additional one is superadded, that the
seeds of life would survive the destruction OF
their planet home, and the journeying
through millions on millions of years (rath-
er millions of millions) which science assures
us they would have to make through the
cold of insterstella space before they would
fall on any other world. And all these abb
surdities to no purpose, SO far as the origin
OF life is concerned, for they take US back
but step, which brings US in reality no near
er 10 all life.

A Mississippi Youth Caught in a Bad
