OLD AND NEW SUNs.-It is becoming
generally recognized that in suns and plan
cts, in all the orbs, in fact, which people
space, there are stages of existence akin to
the stages of life. There is period of pre-.
paration, period of youth, a period of mid
life, period of decay, and finally there
comes the end of life. The stages of an
orb's life may be described as, in the main,
stages of cooling. In suns we find evidence
of such changes in the different conditions
las shown by the spectroscopel of such orbs
as Sirius, Vega and Affair on the one hand
and orbs like our own eun, much smaller,
and therefore much more advanced In orb
life, on the other But also we find much
older suns than ours in the orange-red and
yellow stars, and older orbs still in the blood
red and garnet-tinted suns shown by the
telescope in various parts of the star depths
Nor do astronomers doubt that there are
older suns yet-suns which have passed on
to the last stage of all mayhap, the stage of
darkness. Moreover, as it is known law
of cooling bodies that the larger cooling
mass of given temperature is, the longer
will be the stages of it's cooling, we may
safely assume that, apart from dlhei ences,
(which may, nevertheless, be enormous) IN
the time Of beginning orb life, the larger
suns, having much longer periods of life,
will have passed through less of their longer
lives than the smaller suns.-PToctor.

What the Water Contains.

PROF. WILEYfS ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES TAKEN
FROM THE CANAL AND THE POTOMAC
Prof. II. w. Wiley, chemist Of the Agricultu-
raj department, has reported to Commissioner
COlman the results OF the analysis of three SAM
pies of wafer taken by members of the Repub-
licdn staff, one from the canal, in front of the
waste weir above the mouth Of the conduit of
the Great Falls. the second from the river, at
the conduit'S mouth and the third from the
river channel, fifty yards above the waste weir.
The most noticeable result OF the analysis, as
reported by Prof. Wiley, Is the presence OF free
ammonia in the ratio of .125 parts in one mil
lion in the canal water; 100 parts n one mil
lion In the water at the conduit mouth, and
only .OSO parts In the third sample taken from
the river above the canal outlet.
This quantity of free ammonia" Prof Wiley
reports, "while apparently very small, is in
reality greater than Il pure water should con-
tain. with the exception, perhaps, of No. 3. 1
should ike the confederation of another
analysis before fixing the final value of these
numbers. Twelye-hundredths of one part per
million is not numerically an alarming proper
ton, but it may indicate contact with more
than an average amount OF suspicious NATTER
He reports having found .24O parts per million
OF albumlnold ammonia in the canal water,
.2O4 parts in the water at the conduit and .1GS
parts in the river water above the weir. This
quantity OF albuminoid ammonia, he says, is
twice as great as that given by the poorest of
the waters supplied to the city OF London, ex-
cept when such water is sampled under un-
usual circumstances. In this connection he
says 1t must be remembered that all kinds of
organic matter are not equally prejudicial to
health, and water containing the germs OF
typhoid fever might escape condemnation from
chemical analysis. He pronOunces the water
taken from the river above the weir as the best
and that from the canal as the worst water of
the samples submitted to him.

THE GRADUATING EAEhC1SES OF TIE MA.
TIOSAL UNIVERSITY MEDICAL AND DENTAL
SCHOOLS.
Disagreeable weather last evening did not
prevent large audience from assembling at
Congregational church to witness the graduat-
ing exercises Of the National university schools
of medicine and dentistry. The extended plat
form appeared like an immense floral bank
behind which were seated the faculty, the grad
mates, distinguished guests and the Marine
band. After an opening prayer by Rev. DR.. I.
L. Townsend, OF Incarnation church, Judge Mao
Arthur, vice chancellor of the university, made
some appropriate remarks He announced that

whelming pressure upon his time rendered It
impossible for him TO be present on the occa-

express his interest in the Institution, and his
intention to be present in person at the next
commencement. Secretary Bayard, who had
consented to act for the President in dis;ribut-
ing diplomas to the graduates was then intro
duced by Judge Macarthur. He expressed his
appreciation of the honor conferred upon him.

THE CAUSE OF Mr.. FRELINGHuYsENs
DEATH:-Whether ex-Secretary Frelinghuy-
sens fatal illness originated from q fatal
draught OF mineral water which had been acci-
dentally poisoned with aconite, is a matter Of
some doubt DIR. N. s. Lincoln, Of this city,
thinks his death due solely to liver disease, and
that 1t cannot be attributed to dose OF aconite
taken several months ago. It was early In last
January that Mr.. Freliughuysen drank the
Congress water, which was tnctured with AGO
mite. It appears that the Congress water had
been put in q bottle which had formerly con-

stnpor for several hours. Mrs. DR.. Winslow,
VINO attended Mr.. Frelinghuysen's family says
that he complained after taking the Congfess
water, and his health grew gradually worse
until he died. His sickness, however, did not
probable that the effect OF the drug lasted 70
long. She thinks the real cause OF death was
the liberation of the membranes Of the stomach.
