POPULAR SCIENCE.

THE sun has about 22S, 900 times the
mass of the earth, and the noon only
one-eightieth of this mass.
The most probable NEAR density of
the earth is 5.66, that is, the earth has
500 times the mass Of an equal volume
of water.
ONE of the most remarkable sights to
be seen in Australia is a burning noun
tain 1890 feet in height. The mountain
is supposed tt be underlaid with an in
exhaustible coal seam which in some
way became ignited. 1t was burning
long before the advent of white men to
that part Of the country.
The outer ear Of a GUS is a thin,
almost transparent membrane, and re-
cent experiments show that it is highly
sensitive to movements of the air which
to human ears do not represent sound
at all. It is asserted on good authority
that mice are sensitive to music, and
the stories of their singing have been
fully confirmed. They have a pleasant,
musical note resembling that of the
cricket.
IT is low believed, and with high
probability of the truth of the theory,
that the shooting stars which some
times fall to the earth in a semi-molten
condition are almost or wholly devoid
of heat when they enter the atmos-
phere. They are set on fire by friction
against the air, due to the rapidity of
their motion. 1t is possible hat the
force of the earth's attraction solidifes
such meteors from a gaseous condition
in which they may exist in space.

Taylor's Defalcation Hardly Causes Tenn

PIERRE, S. D., Feb. 5.-State Treas
urer Phillips in an interview made the
following statement: "Owing to the
constitutional provisions limiting the
states debt to $1,OOO,OOO, and the rate
of taxation to mills, the emptying Of
the treasury seemed at first to cause
some embarrassment. This has passed
away and there will be no further
trouble whatever, not only in meeting
the states obligations, but in paying all
of the appropriations in cash. The con-
dition which might have caused most
embarrassment was the existence of
100000 in funding warrants held by
the Chase National Bank of New York,
the Albany City Savings bank and the
Albany Savings institution. These
were due in December, and Taylor had
collected sufficient money to pay them.
The three institutions have promptly
extended the warrants one year. This
leaves us in excellent shape.
