is asked OF the littls tot when he or

for believing they are speaking the
truth when they answer ''yes' to the
question. The chances are, however,
that they don't know their letters

Secretary Of State Blaine resigned
on the 4th. "The condition of pub
lie business in the Department of
State justi6es me-" said Blaine, Z" in
requesting that my resignation be
accepted immediately" In accept
ing the resignation President Harri
son said: The terms in which you
state your desire leave me no choice
but to accede to your wishes at once" ."
The President was approached by a
reporter and when asked if he had
anything to say, replied: Nothing
whatever" Blaine at first refused
to be interviewed He finally said
however, that the question of his can
didacy, or bis acceptance if profferec
the Presidential nomination did no
influence HIM in resigning. His onl,
object was to obtain persona
freedom and peace. Anothe
cause was the sensational rumor
placed in circulation as to his being
secretly working to accomplish Har
rison's defeat and in the meantim
encouraging his friends to pursue
similar course. 1t is now almost
: certainty that Blaine Is in the Presi
dental race and that he will acceE

in Boise Basin than anywhere IN the

the lack of a cheap method of ex-
tracing the gold. Now that the cy-

TIN formation of bodies.

NJ. Lagrange has communicated to the
Belgian academy paper on the formation
of bodies in the universe. In this paper he
expresses the opinion that, before any ex-
penditure of work, the quantity of heat of
the universe was nil; that the temperature
was gradually raised above absolute zero
at the expense Of work done by attraction,
and hence the formation of solid bodies
must have preceded that Of liquids and
gases.
That through the gradual condensation
of matter and consequent enormous devel-
opment of heat the earth would attain, at
least in the parts near the surface, the state
of fuidity necessary to it's form and geo
logical characters; then, as the temper
ature gradually rose with gradual agglom-
Grafton Of matter, a very dense atmosphere
would form, with pressure diminishing
outward, and in a more advanced phase
the temperature of this, after reaching a
maximum, would gradually diminish
causing Hauefaction or solidihcatioD Of
certain matters at first vaporous, while
other solid bodies might remain suspended
in the atmosphere.
Briefly NJ. Lagrange, in elucidation OF
the basis Of his original and remarkable
theory as thus set forth, declares that
space is occupied by two substances
namely, one attractive, which is matter
properly so called, or material atoms; the
other repulsive, which occupies the inter
atomic space, and from which results be-
tween any two atoms a variable repulsioE
exercised at the surface of the latter.-New
