The Fate of the Last Man.

The fate of the last man is a subject
that has been variously discussed by
scientists of one shade and another,
and OF about a dozen solutions of the
question, five OF the best are summar-
lied below:
L. The surface OF the earth is stead
lily diminishing: all the landed portion
will at last be submerged and the last
man be drowned.
9. The ice gradually accommodating
at the north pole and slowly melting
at the south; eventually the earth's
center OF gravity will change, and the
last man will be killed by the rush oil
movables when the catastrophe finally
comes.
3. There is a retarding medium in
space, causing a gradual loss of We
locIty in all the planets. The earth,
oheying this law OF gravitation, will
lac drawn nearer and nearer the sun,
until at last humanity will be roasted
from the face of the earth.
1. The O of water on the
earth's surface is slowly drying up.
Finally the earth will be an arid
waste, like the NOON, and the last
man will die pleading for a drop ol
moisture with which to wet his tongue.
=. A gigantic planet is likely to tum
BILE into the SUI at any time. In that
event our great luminary would blaze
up and burn the earth and the Other
planets in its train to cinders.
