remain along the equator; in these the
remnants of the earth's billions of in
habitants dwindled down to handful
of perfectly formed and mentally
equipped scientists, battle stubbornly
against the inevitable extinction.
Water having disappeared from the
earths surface, has also disappeared
from the atmosphere which has become
thin and altogether changed and I'M
able to support human life. There be-
ing no density of atmosphere, the rays
of the sun struck the earth and were
radiated into space leaving no warmth.
TO exc out life the suns rays had to be
captured and held for use and to this
end was all mans wOndrOuS wisdom
turned Glass was his great weapon;
and by it's means the suns rays were
caught and put to work to give heat
and chemical action whereby the at
mosphere within the glass houses he
lived in was rendered fit for life. Man
practically became an exotic, kept alive
in vast complex green houses.
All but the equatorial region has grad
ually become uninhabitable; because
from the oblique rays of the sun science
was unable to extract heat enough to
maintain any kind Of life. Gradually
humanity was routed from the last
ditch, wrought Of superlative reason
and intellect, and died with the earth.
And one by one the planets persisted
and the sun too followed the law of
evolution and became black, heatless,
lightless, dead orb speeding on in space
into an ever increasing Brightness. The
whole solar system lost to time, is
swallowed up in eternity. BY and by
this dead system will run up against
some other in a similar condition, and
the sun will collide against some other
sun. The terrific shock of this impact
will resolve the two into such an in
tensely hot mass of gas as to friZZle all
the planets together and evolve out of
the new chaos new beginning of time
When? Oh! not to-day nor to-mor-

lated thus far cannot fix the exact dates
of these happenings within 100000 600
years more or less. They have figured
around the elipse of rolling ages and
have brought our terrestrial globe back
into the neighborhood of it's former

lose the soul of eternity? The reason

vary some millions of years from the
other in their computations. Each be-
lieves himself right and knows his
fellows are wrong. Let them juggle
with their reasonings. The believers
in the souls Immortality and sonship
of the great Creator will have returned
to their original source. They will be

New york Cotton Market.

New YORK, June 2l.-There was a
fair business doing in Liverpool today
in spot cotton at unchanged prices, with
sales of 5000 bales. Future deliveries
opened quiet at a slight decline on yes
terday's prices, which was regained,
closing very steady at an advance of
l-64. Our market opened quiet and
steady and 4 to 5 points higher than
yesterday, advanced further, closing
STEADY at 3 to points below the high
est of the day.
Liverpool was better than expected,
and as our market declined so sharply
yesterday, and further short interest
was created, there was no difficulty in
advancing prices today. There has been
little of interest in the market and trad
ing has been largely local. Our private
advices indicate better feeling in Man
chester, although the sales in Liverpool
do not show increased sales. There is
nothing new from the growing crop.
Spot cotton is in better demand and
