4 Warm Age

Prof. r. Kelso Carter has for the
past 20 years bsen very successful
instructor of physical science and the
higher mathematics at tbs military
academy at Chester. In the course
Of his scientific studies the professor
has arrived at startling conclusions
respecting the significance of that
much abused expression, "tbc mil
lenium." He considers that the earth
and other planets of the solar ,ystem
are surrounded by belts of vsporous
matter which are constantly assuming
a different position with respect to
their central bodies. From being
parallsl with the equator5 Of their
respective planets, these belts grad
ually turn hattsr until they success
lively become greenhouse covering
finally fall TO the surface altogether.
The first and last stages of change
cause glacial age while the inter
mediate stage, the greenhouse cover
ing, produces a warm epoch or
Edenic period.
Prof. Carter thinks that the earth
is now approaching another warm
age such as prevailed before the
deluge, and that during this coming
era the duration of human life will
be greatly prolonged. This warm
age like the preceding glacial era
will have an end and be followed by
another age of cold.

1 can not share in the opinion of Re
publican and Democratic reformers
who would select at Washington, by
some device of a commission, nearly
all the postmasters for the seventy
thousand postal communities Of this
Nation. For / would not take away
and ia my judgment the American
people will never allow to bs taken
away, from each community the right
to voice in the selection of its own
postmaster There is no reason why
every postmaster should not be elect
ed by the people whom he is to serve.
Tho post offices have been largely the
element of discord in National poll
tics. They lead very often to party
division and party weakness. Thsy
have killed off more good Congress
men and more good Senators than
ali other causes combined There
are no ills IN this Government which
can not be cured by carrying them
directly to the decision and the wis
dom of the plain people,. S. Clark

POints For Lawyers.

Philadelphia Record April 6 6:-Ths
bar of Philadelphia is famous for the
erudition of its member, but it is
doubtful If in all its history it has
had . more interesting question to
solve than one which will soon be
brought before William Ii. Shields,
Register of Wills. The curious fact
has already been published in the
local papers that the late Miss Susan
Gorgas, of Roxborough, left $4,000
as fund, the interest of which was
to be devoted to the support of her
old horse, and fund of $1,000 TO sup
port her pet cat. Miss Gorsas was
quite a rich woman and left many
generous legacies to her employees
and friends, and her will provided
that after the death Of the horse and
cat the funds set aside for their sup
port should revert to the human
heirs and heiresses in certain stipu-
lated proportions.
A most unexpected controversy has
arisen over the will, however and it
can only be settled in a court of law.
1t appears that few days after Miss
Gorgas' death the cat gave birth to
five kittens, and three days later her
self passed away. Her death was
not regretted by the human heirs,
and the five blind little orphans were
about to be drowned when the Misses
Calslngham, Of Rose street, Ro1bor
oUgh, two tender hearted and con
scientions ladies, suggested that the
kittens, being the direct heirs of
their mother, should be brought UP
to enjoy the $50 yearly income which
would have fallen to their mothers
share had she lived. This idea was
fercely combated, but the ladies' i'll
question resolved to see full justice
done, and caveat has bsen filed by
their lawyer, John p. Worntaker, Jr.,
with the Register of Wills praying
that the will be not probated until
the question of the little orphans
rights be settled, and even if he de
cldes against their claim, the case
Will be carried on to the Orphans
Court. Not only have champions of

A PRIZE has been awarded an artist
for designing figure that is zaid to
be typical OF Chicago. The figure is
to be cast, or carved in stone as one
OF the great objects for the Worlds
Fair. This typical figure Of Chicago
is that of large, broad-faced young
woman, posture straight, shoulders
straight, head erect, one foot away
in advance Of the other, with right
arm akimbo, and left hand holding
sops sort Of working tool, and wear
ing for head gear, a sitting bird,
with wide, outspread wings, and
clothed in long, abdominal corset and
pstticoat, that comes down to about
fifteen inches of the feet, which are
encased in slippers The neck and
arms Of the figure are bare. But a
woman clad in corset and petticoat,
with Phoenix hat, is a queer figure
to set up rs the typical statue of
Chicago, and when dug out Of the
ruins of the Windy City. thousand
years hence, will puzzle the people
of that future day to know how to
classify it, or where to place it as a
piece of statuary, for certainly they
will have some other means of learn
ing what womankind of this day look
ed like, in common dress. They may
possibly classify it as belonging to
the transition state, between the In-
dian squaw and the American civiliz-
ed and fully dressed woman. If the
pieces of statuary of long ago, that
nr. now dug out of tho ruins of the
past, are not better representation
of what the people looked like, than
the proposed typical statute of Chi,
.cago, is representation of what ro.
mankind looks like to day, the peo.
pie Of the future will never know
what we now look like. Just to think
a woman clad in corset and petticoai
with big bird with outstretched
wings, as hat, to typify Chicago

The Union League Club Of Phila-

it of treating at the bar of the club,
shall be broksn up, and that hence
forth no one shall ask another up to
drink. 4 man may go to the bar
and drink by himself, but in no case
is it expected Of him to ask his friends
to drink with him. There are num-
Dor Of reasons given for the alop
tion of such q rule, chief among
which, is, that by asking all to drink
involves great expense on the nights
or days Of regular meetings, and by
the time q number of treats have
been given, all who drink are drunk,
and unbecom;ng language and acts
are indulgad in.
