smaller and smaller circles the inhabitants
gather round the poles. But" to quote
the words of Mr.. Keightley Miller, 'sthe
narrowed limits of the habitable earth can
no longer support this vast increase of
population, and famine begins to NOW
down its victims by millions =;
''Now, indeed, the end of all life on the
earth draws on apace. The heat and
drought become more and more insupport-
able; rain and dew fall no longer. All
springs af water fail, and the rivers dwin-
die down to streamlets and trickle slowly
over their stony beds, and now scarcity of
water is added to scarcity of food Those
who escape from the famine perish by the
drought, and those who escape from the
drought are reserved for fate more awful
yet. For time the few remaining inhab-
itants are partially screened from the over
whelming power of the sun by dense can
opy of clouds formed by the evaporation
of every lake and sea.
''But soon the sun scorches up these
vapor banks, and dissipates them into
space as fast as they can form. Then the
fiery orb shines out in an unutterable
splendor without the lightest cloud wreath
to interpose between himself and his VIC
Tins. Then the last denizens of the world
are stricken down end consumed-the last
traces of organic life are blotted from its
surface. "-LongmanS Magazine.

ROBKST TAYLOR.

his teeth, and was e. familiar figure on the
streets. At the time of his death and burial
his relatives were suspicious that an at
tempt would be made to steal the body and
bury an empty box.
The other corpse taken was that of
Christian Morrow, and the grave of Louis
B. Brown was tempered with. Both of
these bodies, as well as Taylor's. had been
buried by one undertaken. The robbery
was discovered by the sexton on the morn
ing following, and during the day officers
of the cemetery called at the medical col
leges in the city and stated that there was
reason to suspect that the missing bodies
were in the hands of students for dissec-
ton. In case they were not returned to
the cemetery by 9 o'clock p. m. that day
the officers declared that searches would
be made At 9 o'clock sharp the sexton
was summoned, and going out into the
cemetery found the wagon of the under
taker who had charge of the interments
standing near the opened graves and con-
tanning the remains of Taylor and Morrow
The robbery occurred on a bright moon
light night and was accomplished by dig
ging hole down at the head of the graves,
removing the ends of the boxes around the
collins and then slipping the collins out
part way so that the bodies could be drawn
out by the shoulders. The penalty, should
a conviction take place, will be a term in
the penitentiary both for grave robbery
and for receiving the bodies.

A Man Who Is Apt to BE pis1il,ea.

Among the many men whom I long to
see get their deserts is the man who thinks
it beneath his dignity to do kindly SER
vice. He is insulted if neighbor asks him
to do a favor for him in town, and says
that he 'would really like TO see himself
make a pony express of himself to carry
bundles in and out to oblige any man or
womanp' Oh, how shall beat the cymbal
and smite the drum when that man comes
into the inheritance of his just award! 1t
costs SO little in this world to be gracious
that even putting the matter on the low
plane of policy, than which there is no
plane for action much lower, it is better
worth ones while to be affable and kind
than otherwise. Anybody would travel

on the contrary almost anybody would

A Vivid Scientific Picture Of the Gradual

The nebula in Orion, Saturn and the
moon are indeed suggestive of change

through in the long process of the evolu-
ton of worlds.
And of all changes that change has most
interest for us which affects our own planet.
the earth; it has reached later stage than
Saturn, though not SO late a stage as the
moon; but only in long ages and by minute
effects will further changes be noticed.
Ages hence it may be discovered that
there is some slight change in the earth's
orbit; or Mercury, yet nearer to the sun
than we, may be seen to pursue smaller
orbit than now, and the terrible fact may
come home to man that we are drawing
nearer to the sun. Time goes on, aud the
tropics become too hot for existence, and
colder regions find a welcome change to
warmth.
Age by age goss by, and the end is, Wis
lbly, no nearer; but the figures of astrono-
mers only too surely tell their tale.
Now the tropics are an impossible desert
and all the life on the globe congregates
around the poles. Spain has lost her vine

.'CRISPIE. -

to a generation, is most curious specimen
of cosmopolitan humanity, for he is her
NIT and has lived as such for thirty-five
years.
"Cripsie," as the men around the
wharves call him, claims to be native of
the neighboring Staten Island, just across
the bay, and says he is 60 years old. He
fishes in the evening instead of in the day
time, because then there are fewer paddle
wheels and screws to scare the finny tribe
He lives almost entirely on fish. His abode
is in an abandoned workshop, where a
bench serves for a bed, and box for a
chair. Here he has remained undisturbed
for years, his only companions being a
colony of cats, who help eat the products
of his strange industry. The hermit's
name, as be says, is Cripps, and no reason
is known for his cratic life. His own
statement is that he adopted it when a
young man, and has kept it up for thirty
five years.
'Cripsie" is not miser, and does very
little trafficking in fish, though he occa-
sionally exchanges a part of his catch for
bread. He does few odd jobs in the day
time and spends his earnings for bread,
that being the only thing he eats besides
fish. He is doubtless insane on some
points, although he is amiable and harm
less. His garments are chiefly the cast off
clothing of boatmen and dock hands, and
all in all 'Cripsie" is veritable white
haired wait OF the piers
