VIII the ,arth.s Motion cc,scs

Is the motion of OR earth and other
planetary bodies perpetual? a super
fetal survey of the field would convey
the impression that such motion will
continue forever. The earth with its
mass of 5000, 0O0, 900, 000,O0O tons for a
long time dcfied all attempts to detect
ITS loss of speed, but, with the friction
of the tides continually at work, it was
shown that such loss must take place,
iand it is pretty certain from calcu-
tiations of Prof. Adams and others that
,thc earth loses about an hour every
10000 years, and is slowly but surely
coming to standstil. The expert
mcnts and Investigations of modern
scientists are proving what Sir Isaac
Newton believcd-that the motions of
all bodies in space arc suffering re-
tardation, and that their velocity is be-
coming less and less and will ultimate
ly cease altogether. Then the whole
planetary system will fall through space
everlasting,

Tho Most Sacred Relic in tho Eyes
of Good Catholics.
It Is Supposed to DO tho Garment Worn
BY tho Saviour just Before the Cruel
fxion-A Famous Religious
Festival.

The pilgrimage of Americans to
Europe to look upon the holy coat of
Trcvcs has begun. That is Il long jour
glcy to look upon Il relic. But this is an
extraordinary rclic-thc most sacred
In the keeping of the Catholic church.
To be sure certain ccclcsiastics have
discrcditcd it's authenticity. But, says
the Chicago Herald, the mass of people
in the Catholic church believe it is the
garment the Saviour wore.
When the announcement was made
that the coat would he on exhibition
this year it aroused much interest
among good Catholics in America.
Very old and famous is the city Of
gTrcves in Rhcnish Prussia. 1t lies on
the right bank of the Moscllc. Il ruin of
former magnifccncc. In Trcvcs arc
found the finest specimens of Roman
csquc architecture. Very splendid is
the cathedral. A hundred years ago
the city library contained 1000 vol
umcs But the city is celebrated above
all other things because in it is treasured
tho holy coat, which has received the
most lcvout veneration from all good
Catholics.
1t was ST. Helena who gave the coat
to the city. 1t is said she was born in
Colchester. Eng, late in the third
century She did not accept Christiani-
ty until She was eighteen. Then her
zeal was extraordinary. Her pilgrim
age to Palestine in the fourth century
is famous event in the history of the
Catholic church. The object was to Sc
cure the cross upon which the Saviour
was crucificd.
She found three crosses. The holy
one was distinguished because it was
said mere touch healed a helpless in
valid While searching for the cross
st. Helena found the coat, the seamless
coat. She secured what was consid-
cred positive proof that the Saviour
had worn the garment just before cru
cifixion.
When st. Helena returned to Europe
she spent many years in Treves, which
