THE GLOBE, on next Sunday, will begin the
publication of serial story entitled, "a Paris
ian Marriage, or the Marchioness' Mother"
written by that brilliant French novelist,
Edmond About. shortly before his death.
This story has been procured by the GLOBE
and several leading newspapers Of the cOun-
Try BY special arrangement with the author
agent. Being its first publication the story
will excite general interest 1t is not neccs-
sary for the GLOBE 10 introduce the author
10 lis readers. His novels have always Gre
ated sensation, and have been well received
by the novel reading community everywhere.
Il s other writings have won appreciation
from competent judges, and have been
translated into various languages. The story
will run through three issues Of the SUNDAY
GLOBE, viz: Feb. Is and %, and March L.

scIENrE ro THE FRONT.

Science will find a worthy subject for In
vestigatio1 in the Ten nessee story which was
furnished the GLOBE yesterday morning by
its Cleveland correspondent. F. G. GIBBS, a
respected member Of Ten nessee society,
died eight years ago at the advanced age of
seventy-eight. 1t seems to have been Mr..
GIBBS misfortune, like the remarkable
Ethiopian spoken of in the familiar poem
known as .'Uncle Ned,n TO have no hair on
the top of his head. This is not an uncom-
mon thing with men Of that age, and moth
ing would have been said about it if it had
not been that II became necessary day or
two ago 10 RENTER Mr.. GIBBS remains In
order 10 have them laid by the side Of his
wife, who died recently and was buried at
another spot. When the body was resurrected
1t was discovered that the beard, in lmita-
ton Of RIP VAN WINKLE, had grown long and
gray. The first question for science TO de-
terInine is, is the hair of perpetual growth,
and cannot death stop its progression! The
fact, in Mr.. GIBBS case, in the language of
Senator EDMUNDs, appears TO affirm the
proposition. But, the most singular part,
and the most difficult scientific problem is To
come. The hair on his head had not only
grown in length corresponding with the
beard on his face, but had actually changed
color. 1t was ten inches long and jet black.
viii science now un5osom itself, and tell US
whether or not the grave is rejuvo nator. II
it is, timorous mOrtals who stand upon its
brink will cease to look upon 1t as a dreary
charuel vault, and, instead, will hasten with
quickened pace to lay their wasted
forms in its kind embrace in order that the
strength and bloom of youth may be restored
10 them. In fact the grave will become
Mecca for baldheaded bachelors and silver
haired spinsters. There is really too much
involved in the GIBBS mystery for science to
do as il so often does with real knOtly prob
lem-throw Itself back upon its erudite dig
nifty aud refuse an explanation OF causes
affecting the human race. There is theo-
ogy that teaches US the grave is but the gate
way 10 life-it is only the dawning of the
morning, and in this case may be found q
practical illustration of the correctness Of the
theological theory. On the other hand, pro-
fame persons who take purely secular view
OF it, may Insist that it only demon strates
truth in tonsorial philosophy, that the color
of the hair eau be changed by dyeing.

THE ILLINOIS CONTEST.

Speaker HAINEs aspires to senatorial hon
ors in Illinois. He expects to attain the
position by treachery to MORRISON, the Demo-
cratic nominee. II he succeeds through the
aid of Democratic votes. it would be we'll
enough to let LOGAN take the prize. A
straight out Republican might be preferable
to the sort of Democrat who would deliber-
ately cut the throat of his party candidate.
II HAINEs and CARTER HARRISON have no
higher mission than to thwart the will of the
Democratic majority, as expressed in caucus,
the sooner they march into the Republican
camp the better 1t will be for them, and bet
ter tor the Democratic party. The GLOBE
could name score OF prominent Democrats
In Illinois who would have been preferred
to Mr.. MORRISON as the party candidate, but
as Mr.. MORRISON has been named, and
came by his nomination honestly, there is
but one course left to any true Dem
ocrat, in the Illinois legislature, and that is
to stick to MORRISON until be is elected or is
Withdrawn by caucus of the same mem
beers who nominated him. The Illinois De-
mocracy can better afford defeat than to gain
an unsubstantial victory in the senatorial
contest al the expense of party organization,
and as the price of reward is individual
perfdy, Mr.. DAVID DAVIS is posing as an In-
dependent candidate with the hope that he
can slip in the senate by the same tactics
that elevated bin to the position before.
Judge DAVIS is several years older and per-
haps several pounds heavier than be was
when elected Senator in 1877, and will prob
ably break the straps of his boots this time
in the effort to elevate himself. 1t has been
long time since Illinois had representa-
tive IN the senate whose abilities gave the
state the standing it deserved. From the
present outlook the situation in that respect
will be unchanged for some time to come. OF
all those who are, or have been, prominent
in the c1ntes. VIM. R. MORRISON stands as high
among the others as SAUL did among his fell
lows.

Barryville On. Y.) Letter TO the n. Y. Sun.
Daniel Halock, OF this town, is a noted
Sullivan county hunter. In October last be
came across signs OF a bear in a piece OF
chestnut woods not far from Barry Vile.
Knowing that the bear would revisit the
place TO feed on the chcstnuts. Hcllock
climbed to the top OF a tree with his rifle and
watched Tor the coming Of bruin He waited
until after midnight, in spite Of the cold, be-
fore he beard the bear coming. The night
was so dark that Hailock could not see the
bear, but when he thought that the animal
was at a certain spot he aimed In that direc-
ton and fired The howl that the bear gave
told Halock that be had wounded II. I -
bear houndcred about in the brush for q
minute or two. HalIock believed that 1t
would be too rash thing for him to leave
the tree and run the risk Of a fight with the
bear in the dark, and 50 he fired again. He
heard the bear Tor while In the brush, and
then all was quiet.
Halock remained in the tree I'LL morning,
the bear was nowhere TO be seen. The hun
ter searched in every direction, but could
tind no trace Of the animal. A few days
ago he was In the same locality, and In walk
ing by the tree from which he bad shot the
bear, saw the hall-decomposed carcass Of
bear living at the foot of the tree. Halock
believes that this was the bear be shot, and
that IL had managed 10 evade him while lie
was searching for It, and then crawled back
To the spot where It's carcass was found.

an accomplished student Of socialism.
The New York Tribune thinks there is no
basis for apprehension Of the future, because
tue great mass Of men are working upward
toward better conditions by thoroughly peace
full, Legitimate, and natural methods, and
that evolution not revolution, is the process
by which all necessary changes will be made.
This NAV be called the optimist view. His
tory indicates that it Is not entirely true.
Revolution is the climax of evolution. It
is the hot breath of revolution that has almost
always brought into ripened maturity the So
cial, religious, or political germ that may
have been centuries In evolution. The
Charter Oak incident was the beginning
from which the Declaration Of Independence
eliminated; the treaty OF Passau was the re-
suit Of Luther's speeches years before. But
the argument from analogy is often fall
lacious, aud never more so than when
revolution Is taken rs means
to attain an end which Is not the result OF
the process OF slow AMI legitimate revolution

their threats on universal suffering aud strife

sion existing over the movements Of the
former. The time is one of many problems

GEN. HAzEN, Chief of the Signal service,
takes exception to the free manner in which
ordinary newspaper reporters use the English
language, and has published Il diagram for
their benefit, distinguishing the difference
between cyclones aud tornadoes.
He says that the name cyclone was origin
ally applied to the violent storms OF the Bay
of Bengal and other tropical regions. 1t is a
broad storm from 100 to 500 miles in diam
eter, bringing heavy rain and leavinga calm
space in the center from 10 TO Is miles in
diameter. 1t travels from 25 to 30 miles an
hour aud often lasts a week. Tornadoes are
violent local storms and occur in certain
paris OF cyclonic storm. They last only an
hour or two, and unlike the cyclone, are so
destructive as to sweep their narrow track
clear Of nearly all structures. All Of this
will he extremely interesting in the midst of
the next big storm.

A craze for draw poker has gradually de-
veloped itself in the towns along the Olean
division of the New York, Lake Erie s. West
ern railroad. It has affected rich aud poor,
young and old. Time-honored and semi
wicked euchre and dignified and eminently
respectable whist are now seldom heard of in
lively and social gatherings Whereabouts. The
fashionable carl party now involves an ante
of five cents and a limit of twenty-five. So
ciety ladies can talk by the hour about the
game, for Its mysteries are to them as an open
book.
