Niagara Falls sa, 1000 Years Old.

For more than a hundred years the
scientists of the Old and New World
have been figuring out the age of the
great Falls. Elliot in 1890 fixed the
age at $4,000 years; Lyell in 1S40
claimed the Falls could not be over
81. 900 years; Woodward in 1886 even
reduced the figure TO 10000 years, and
still more recently Gilbert after learn
ed arguments about the matter, es-
timated their age at siXty-seven years,
Now Prof. Spencer comes forward and
SAYS that all calculations so far had
been based upon the retrogressive
movement of the soil through the ac-
ton of water While this recession
is nearly regular, he adds a new ele-
ment of valuation, that is the different
phases of the formation OF the river
itself and its greater or lesser force
of erosion exerted both on river bed
and banks. Spencer argues that the
river exists for about $4,000 years.
During 1000 years or more 1t had
drained the Erie basin without hav-
ing formed a cascade. The waters OF
Lake Ontario getting lower and lower,
the Falls resulted, but were formed
slowly and gradually until they reach
ed their present height
The Niagara Falls as we know them
or nearly so, will last at least 5000
years longer.-La Nature.

STREET NoMENcLATURE.

When the nomenclature of streets for the
Greater Washington comes to be considered,
it might not be inappropriate TO include in
the scheme the names of the country 'sfamous
men, or course, the numbered streets
will have to be continued, but as the limit
ofthe alphabet has been reached-X, and
z being tabooed-the streets running east
and west might well be named so as to
perpetuate at the Nations Capital the
memory of men who have contributed to the
Nations greatness.
There is no lack of material for such a
purpose. Every page of the country's his
tory furnishes it in abundance. Nor would
it be amiss to remember men who have had
a part in shaping the city itself. Why, for
instance, should not some handsome thor
oughfare be named for L 'Enfant, the young
engineer who drew the plan for the most
beautiful city in the world? Then others
might well be called after such of the
city's chief magistrates as reflected honor
upon it.
And again, the names Of the States them
selves are by no means exhausted and ave-
nues and streets might be honored with the
appellations OF those members of the Union
thathave been added in receutyears. There
is an interesting field to be explored in con-
nection with this matter. one that deserves
some historical research and will amply re-
pay the trouble.

washington Not to Blame.

tFrom the Washington RepubIic)
AT the special meeting of the Board of
Trade last Tuesday evening to discuss
the evils of the vicious resorts on the south
shore Of the Potomac, that idea which the
Republic has chanpioned alone among the
newspapers OF this city, found eloquent
advocates among the speakers, namely,
that Alexandria county should be restored
to the District of Columbia, from which it
was illegally filched in 1876 The ouly
alternatives suggested for this course,
such begging the Governor of Virginia
TO act, or appealing to the mora sentiment
OF the people. seem either humiliati ting or
futile. They have already brought ont
the response that might have been expected,
in the form Of angry invectives from the
NirginiaDs, and ridiculous retort that
Washington city is to blame for all the
lawieSsness complained of. There were
10 serious arguments brought forward at
the meeting against remuneration One
speaker claimed that the crime or folly
of 1876 was CONSTITUTIONAL and could
not be uDdone without the consent of
Virginia. Another indulged in the rather
jocose suggestion that the annexation Of
Alexandria county would only push the
gamblers back into the next county and
it would be necessary by degrees to take
IN the whole of Virginia The fact is
that there are no real arguments against
the reform, and ali logic and reason are
in its favor The founders of this GOV
ernment acted with their usual wisdom
when they made the Federal District ten
miles square, and placed the Capital City
near the center of it, secure from moles-
tation or disturbance equally on all sides
Their wisdom was disregarded when the
District was split almost in two, aud the
jurisdiction of a State government brought
almost up to the walls of the Capitol
Virginia, it must be said, played an I'M
worthy part in the transaction, breaking
faith both with Maryland and the whole
United States, and violating the condition
on which the National Capital was moved
so far south and placed on the Potomac
The Republic hopes that the agitation
started at the Board of Trade meeting will
continue and result in spreading this idea
of remuneration until it leads to action by
Congress aud the Executive.

MIR. PUGH ARRAIGNED.
Citizens Say He Was Remfss in the
Crossings Case.

Citizens Say He Was Remiss in the
Crossings Case.
The decision of Judge Kimball, nulli-
flying the Commissioners order recurring
the B. & O. r. r. trains to stop tempo
rarily at the II street crossing, has pro-
voked much hostile comment among mem
bers of the Northeast Washington Citizens
Association, who Were active iu securing
the passage OF the regulation
1t is openly asserted that the govern
ment's side of the case was very weakly
presented by Assistant District Attorney
Pugh and, as an instance of his indispo-
Sition to push the case, it is stated that
during the argument of Mr. Hamilton,
counsel for the railroad, the peoples at
toruey left the court room, aud did not
return for au extended period of time
Mr.. W. H. Frizzell, formerly president
of the Northeast washington Citizens As
SociatioD, in speaking of the matter yes
terday, said
1.-The 'reasonableness' of the order may
be found in the fact that after two years
of effort and argument by the Citizens
Association committees, the District Com
missioners Were satisfied of the reason
abIeDess' of the order. from the fact that
they had reliable information that II street,
at the intersection of the tracks, is often
contested, the cable cars and herdicS pass
ing every few minutes with their loads OF
human freight, and Notwithstanding that
the goDgs may sound. the gatemans lodge
being some twenty feet from the crank,
and the gatemen being usually old, mac
tive, and men grown decrepit in more
active service of the railroad company,
the trains are often so near the crossing
before the gates are lowered that fire.
quently persons and teams are shut in, so
that they break the gates in getting out.
'These and m any other facts have con-
vinced the Commissioners of their duty,
and had the District attorney been present
and heard the very weak presentation of
the case by the railroad attorney and Ind
taken the trouble to inform himself about
the case, Judge Kimball might have been
of a different state of mind. OF course,
sympathy, whether from the bench or
else W here, is always appreciated, but
when a judicial Judgment is to be given
it is only upon the questions presented at
the hearing"
