crate demand for state bonds and in
some cases quotations were higher.
Tho stock market was very dull all

the declines are only for fractional

ton Burweivs paper on reciprocity IN
trade created a lively running debate,
which was renewed with vigor on re-.
converting In tho evening.
Mr. Hirt, Of Virginia, and Mr.. Ninton,
OF Indiana, opposed reciprocity,
on the ground that they fostered special
and individual interests.
Mr.. McCiury, of Ohio, said thore was
no such thing as raw material, neithor
was there over production. Reciprocity
treaties ought To be- avoided, because
they crippled natural trade.
Mr.. DOeroh, of Kentucky, said Eng.

now trying Conquest, az witness the
wars in Egygt, Which were all to Cupguor
trade and 10 impOse English goods upon
those who would not otherwise have

that the region along the esrth,s orbi

that the region along the earth's orbit
sbounds in meteors, and that at two
points the orbit passes through streams
of meteors where these little planetolds
are usually thick, These two points are
encountered in August and November,
when the precipitation of the little
bodies marks the armament with lines
of fire. But meieors are falling to the
earth all the time--in other months OF
the year as we'll as In August and No.
vember-in the day time as we'll as at
night. Very brilliant ones have been
seen shooting across the sky in broad
daylight, and one who observes the sky
patiently aud attentively any dark
night may count them. A careful esti-
mate makes the average number to be
seen by single observer in limited
quarter of the sky about twelve per
hour; and another estimate makes
the precipitation of meteOric matter
to the earth from the whole heavens
two aud half tons per hour. In rare
instances the meteorite, or part of IL,
which Is solid body, reaches tho earth
in an unconsumed state, but far the
greater number arc entirely consumed
in the cOntlagration SGT np bV their pas-
sage through the earth's atmosphere,
and only the ashes or meteorio dust
reaches the soil. But oven when the me-
teorite Is thus burned TO ashes, no part
of 1t is lost. All its original clements sur.
Vlve in the residuum of ashes and yapor
which, thenceforth, belong To our earth.
These meteOrites or plsuetoids are iron
rocks, and ii enc OF them as large AS
the st. Louis courthouse, in passing
through our atmosphere, were entirely
burned up, it would sull bring as much
increment to the earth as If IL fell TO the
surface in a solid mass. The estimate
OF this steady and perpetual increment
to our earth's weight is two and n
half tons per hour, or 60 tons
a day, or 2l,900 tons wear, or
over 100000 tons every centnry. II

trains, therefore, 10 hRul the meteoric
deposit which the earth gathers from

Is demonstrably growing in size and
weight all the time. Relatively, how
ever, the increment is small, though il

itself. The earth has been weighed. II
anyone wants tho figures, here they are:
60O0, 600, 000,0 900, 900. 100000.
1t will take ages of steady preclpita
ton OF meteorites to appreciably in

the estimate of IL recently made has nc
other interests, therefore, than as an
