WIGGINs' TONGUE WAGS.
The Weather Prophet Talks About the
Opposltion of Mars.

-
OTTAWA, Ont, Aug. 5.-Dr. Wiggin. the
weather prophet and astronomer, states
that he much surprised at the result ofthe
investigation through the Lick telescope
regarding the planet Mars. Such q result
was certainly very disappointing to astro-
nomers, as they had fully believed in the
accuracy of Schiaperelli's Investigations
regarding the parallel cana's on
the face of the planet, but which the Lick
telescope did not reveal in any shape. Dr..
Virgins thinks Mars must be a far more
desirable world to live in than our own.
because there is only a small region nea!
the poles where. any winter exists, aud II
perature is not excessive even at the
equator.
:'As it is many millions Of years older than
the earth" he said. II Judge that its tnhabitante
probably live for hundreds Of years. I would
iaier this from the fact hat noxious vapors do
not exist in its atmosphere to. cause epidemics:
years ago. As his attraction to the earth is
now the greates< possible. our. ATMOSPHERIC
density is slightly increased, which accounts for
also increase the violence of Mount Etna's erup.

Her Books Sell.

Margaret Deland, the author of John
Ward, Preacher is a pretty woman of a
fine physique, long way this side of
thirty, with a wonderful command of Ian
guage in conversation and a manner indie
ative of the highest culture. She lives in
Boston, and is one of the few writers who
has phenomenal success in the sale of her
books. Ten days after the publication of her
THE Old Garden and Other Poems" the first
edition was exhausted, the second edition
brought an advanced price and three other
editions have appeared since. Within one
week the first edition of John Ward,
Preacher" was sold and several others
have since followed York Sun.

N.ishborIy Encouragement.

At the present time the business men
of Rock Island and Moline are unable to
talk about about anything except the
great Columbian exposition which the
cities of Rock Island and Moline expect
to hold this year. Already the ground
has been secured. 1t is the intention
to make q permanent institution, stock
company being organized for the pur-
pose. The stock is finding ready sale
and it is expected that all will soon be
taken. The grounds are situated be-
tween Rock Island and Moline and
are most admirable for the
purpo,e. Permanent buildings will
be erected. A race track will find q
place on the grounds. a base ball park and
in the winter skating rink. 1t is also
proposed 10 rent TO circuses and similar
smusements in order to secure revenue.
The Tribune certainly wishes eur sister
cities success in their enterprise. They
have been talking of Consolidation for
some time. but it has all been talk. This
Columbian exhibition scheme will do
more to bring abou. the desired result
than anything else. The two cities
should be united and 1t is more than like
ly that when they see the good that
united strength can do they will reach
some agreement whereby consolidation
can be effected.-Davenport Trisuue.

The spot on the sun.

TIE scientific papers have all been full
of references TO the great spot on the sun
that lately appeared They connect it in
some occult manner with the recent Won
derful display of aurora borealis. The
spot is reported by the men o. science as
being 10000 miles long by 100. 600
miles wide. They said that it could easily
be seen by means of a piece of smoked
or colored glass. The Geneseo News
says: The good Bland tried it the
other day, but without success. All he
could seewas the glowing round disc of
The sun. without solitary spot upon it.
though he got one on his nose from the
smoked glass. Bland says, however,
and adheres 10 it, that be saw star. As
the observation was taken in the middle
of the afternoon, this may be regarded as
something out of the common line OF
events Men sometimes see stars in the
daytime; but it is usually after some
severe confusion of the Uranium"

TIE LUMBERMEN.
The Legs are Being Banked for a
Busy Mill season.

No better weather nor better roads
could exist for the purposes of logging
than have been enjoyed in the woods for
the pas 10 days. With sufficient snow,
but not too much, and weather far below
the freezing point. the logging industry
has been at its best. In no place on the
upper Mississippi is snow reported deep
er than Is inches, nor in any place less
than eight. Ice roads when made need
little or no repair. Both men and horses
are now thoroughly hardened to their
work and the grip is rapidly disappearing
from the camps. Very little sickness of
any kind now prevails Ia this respect
the upper Mississippi camps are more
fortunate than those of northern Wiscon-
sin.
More than one half the proposed cut of
logs is now banked One firm that
started in for 100. 000, 900 expect to have
two-thirds that amount at the water by
Saturday night. Some thrifty concerns
that started work early and have had the
advantage of short hauls or logging roads
have gone even beyond this record, but
the aggregate of logs new banked in this
territory does not reach two-thirds of the
expected cut. Generally speaking the
logging will not continue, even though
good weather continues, beyond the limit
proposed at the opening of the season.
Stumpage is too valuable to justify the
cutting of surplus of logs that must lie
over one or more seasons and deteriorate
in quality before coming to the saw

actress, gave the following reply to an i'm

correspondent who asked her the secret of
the beautiful eyelashes for which she is
distinguished: The recipe is extremely
simple. The requisites are, first, eye
lashes; second, an extremely fine comb:
third, stick of black cosmetic. A lady
in possession of these means has only to
pass the comb through the eyelashes after
rubbing it with the cosmetic, ct viola! the
