How Fast the Earth Moves.

Everybody knows hat the earth makes
m complete revolution on its axis once
i'll each PA hours. But few, however,
have any idoa of the high rate Of speed
at which such an immense ball must
turn i'll order to accomplish the feat of
making ono revolution i'll n day and a
night. A graphic idea of the terrific
pace which the old earth keeps up year
after year may be had by comparing its
speed to that Of n Il IL ball fired from
q modern high pressure gun. The high
est velocity ever attained by such a mis-
sile has been estimated at ,626 feet per
second, which is equal to q mile in
8 2-10 seconds. The earth, in making
Il complete revolution in the short
space Of "a hours, must turn with n
velocity almost exactly equal to that of
tho cannon ball. In short, its rate of
speed at the equator is exactly 1907
feet per second. This is equal to Il mile
every 3 Clio seconds, II miles IL min
