Virgins Says the World Can Not End
for Billions of Years.
Prof. Wiggins, the weather prophet,
who is now at small Canadian village
near Ottawa. was interviewed the other
day by Globe Democrat correspondent
"Will this world ever have AN end was
asked. "No, said the astronomer; "tiis
world will never have an end. The uni
verse, or immensity. so far as revealed to
us in the telescope. is made up OF star
punches, or nebul@, placed at immense
distances from each other. Our sun be-
longs to the nebula which we call the
milky way. Who would think OF one
nebula blotted from existence without
all the others meeting similar fates
But if our earth ever does have an end
it can not be for many billions of years
yet.
The first planet of the solar system
that will be snufTed out is Neptune, for
it is the farthest from the sun and the
Oldest. Uranus will then follow, then
Saturn, then great Jupiter, then Mars
Twenty millions of years after we see
Mars fall out Of the sky we may prepare
for oblivion, but not till then. You see.
as the planets grow they recede from the
sun and shift their axes And as they
recede from the sun, or the center OF
gravity, they swell or enlarge. Life
on Mars is much preferable to that on
the earth, for the people there have
smaller bones, because the attraction is
less, and they need less muscular exer-
ton for locomotion. They have more
mental energy, therefore, for study, and
hence are much wiser and longer lived
than we are. We may infer, also, that
they are not subject to disease, and their
mental energy may be so great that they
renew their bodies by sinking into sort
of chrysalis state, and without the agency
of death, so that their lives may be
eternal.
"You think, then, that Mars is inhab-
ited?"
Il know it is, for all the land surface
is carved up by canals, evidently for the
purpose Of travel and irrigation. Along
the banks OF tn, sc canals forests are
planted, for the trees supply moisture to
the air, and this probably becomes dew,
which then promotes vegetation. When
the earth's orbit becomes as great as that
of Mars our planet will probably be
hundredth part larger than now, our
oceans will become more shallow, all
mountains will be worn down, and we
will have nothing to condense the moist
ure in the air, if, indeed, we have any
moisture to condense. Canals will then
every ywhere be a prime necessity.

Professor w. II. Pickering reports that
the South American party now engaged
In celestial photography in connection
with the Draper Memorial work have
succeeded in getting number of photo
graphs of the planet Mars. They were
taken on two evenings, April and 10,
seven negatives on each occasion, and at
times so chosen that the planet presented
the same face in corresponding pictures
on the two evenings. The pictures show
the spots and markings on the surface OF
the planet very clearly. The most in
teresting thing, however, is that the
negatives Of April 10 show the southern
snow cap distinctly larger than those
taken the evening before. There can
hardly be possibility of mistake in the
case, because all the seven pictures Of
each evening tell the same story. There
must have been heavy snow storm on
that part of the planet between the two

-in fact. the common assemblage of
English society generally-all came over,
as might naturally have been expected,
from gentlemen of such high respecta-
bility, with William the Conqueror. Be-
fore the conquest true born English
men bore, without exception, those un.
couth and unpronounceable crack jaw
names which we now condescendingly
describe as Anglo-Saxon. To be sure
these are the only true English names In
existence-the only ones formed directly
from English roots and smacking of the
soil. where those roots that grow as nat
uralIy as dandelions or daisies, while all
the rest that we bear nowadays are in
the lump High German, or else Hebrew
by origin, as much aliens in the land as
the Carolines and Augustuses, the Alex
anders and Dagmars, that have come
over in later times with Teutonic or Scan
dinavian princes and princesses. Most OF
these true old English names were ugly
enough in all conscience. Take Alf.
thryth, for example, as charming title
for the heroine of a novel, or Godgifu as
the original OF our modern Lady Godiya.
But, pretty or ugly, they all went down
together as soon as the Normans came.

British snobbery, no sooner felt the heel
of the Williams and the Henrys pressed
firm upon his neck than he took his re-

A Fair of Them Encher Two Bluebirds
Out Of a Nesting Place.


Out OF Nesting Place.
On Farmer Harvey NJ Van Sickle's
place, in Silver Lake township, Pa,
two-story stone milk house has been
standing for more than 80 years. When
the masons built it they Knocked the
mouth from an old earthen jug and
cemented the jug into the solid wall to-
ward the peak, leaving the open end on
the outside of the wall. The kind hearted
workmen put the jug there for purpose.
and every summersince then wrens have
nested in it.
Thisseason pair of bluebirds got there
few hours before the wrens did, took
possession of the jug without any cere-
mcny, and began to carry bits of straw
and dried grass into it at intervals of Is
or 20 minutes. Toward noon a pair of
wrens fitted into the yard and sailed
around the milk house two or three times.
Then they made dive for the opening
in the old jug, darted into it, and soon
flew out, squalling spitefully. The rea.
son why they did this was because they
had found one of the bluebirds fixing
things up inside.
The surprised bluebird sailed out in
the wren's wake, and then feathered
warfare was begun that lasted for two
hours. Finding a stranger in home
that had been occupied by wrens for half
century made the little wrens mad all
over. They pitched into the bluebird
and tried to drive it away, giving vent
to angry pipes and squalls as they fought.
For time the bluebird gave battle to
the wrens, but the two were more than
a match for it, and it retired to a tree.
While it was perched there the wrens
flew into the jug and started to drag out
the straw and stuff the bluebirds had car
ried in.
The wrens were Lusy cleaning out the
| iug when the blu bird on the tree was
Joined by its mate. All at once they
took bee line for the jug. They darted
into it like flash, and in second the
wrens came out as though they had been
fired. They hadn't been cowed down by
the larger birds by long sight, for they

and drove the bluebirds out. Then the

hour, neither party entering the jug
while the battle lasted.
Finally they stopped fighting, and each
side began to carry things into the jug.
The wrens made two trips while the blue
birds made one, and late in the after
noon the wrens had filled the hole so full
of twigs that the bluebirds couldn't get
in. There was room for the wrens to go
in and out, and they held the fort against
their bigger foes, who made several at
tempts to tear the barrier of twigs away,
but without success Toward sundown
the bluebirds sailed away and never
came back, and the wrens have had pos
session of the old jug ever since.
