Athletic Feats ON the Moon.


Did you ever get TO thinking that you
would enjoy sudden translation from
the earth to the moonp If you have, did
you ever figure on the wonderful feats Of
muscular strength with which you could
astonish our luminary neighbors, provid-
ing gravitation would have no more effect
accordingly there than herep
Let us fgure The moon only weighs
one-eightieth part as much as the earth.
Gravitation must, therefore, be correspond
ingly less. If, therefore, man weighed
40 pounds on this earth, he would weigh
but fraction over 20 pounds according to
the scales used on the moon. If, however.
his muscles and frame remained the same
as they were before being transferred to
our silyery sister world, he could ''aston-
ish the natives with his astounding ath-
letic and muscular feats He would be
able TO shoulder an elephant of the regula-
tion size and to yank small mountain
out by the roots. The buoyancy OF his
body would be so great that athletic feats
would be easily accomplished. He could
run mile In something less than two SEQ
onds, or could by single bound leap over
q wall "a feet high. without greater exer-
ton than would be required here In clear

ANARCHISTS REJECTED.
Turned Down by the International
Socialists Trades Congress at
LOndOn...Lively Debates.

London, July 2S.-The International
Socialists trades congress met i'm St
Martins town hail today and the ques-
tion o! the admission of the Anarchists
as delegates which yesterday precipi-
,tated free fight and caused the chair
man to declare the congress adjourned
was again taken up for final action
The chair today was occupied by Herr
Singer, the well known Socialist mem-
Der of the German Reichstag. who
speaks English iluently. After the usu-
al preliminaries the congress took up
the question of the admission of the
Anarchists, aginSt which a large ma
Jority vote was cast yesterday. Speech
es for and against their recognition as
delegates were made by Jean Jaurea,
Il radical Socialist member of the
French chamber of deputies; Tom
Mann. who was formerly a member of
the house of commons and several other
properly accredited delegates. The
speakers We're Very much excited. and
those for the admission of the Anar-
chists, hotly contended that if they were
not admitted the congress would not be
internationally representative in its
scope, and that its decisions and con-
clusions would not carry the weight
which they would otherwise have.
The opponents of the proposition de-
clared with equal spirit that the admis-
sion of Anarchists would have the ef-
feet of leading the general public to
believe that the Socialists favored the
Anarchist propaganda. which the
speakers cOntended was not the case
Eventually another vote was taken and
it was finally decided that the Anar-
chiSts should not he admitted. The
congress then proceeded to the discus
sion of other questions.
ANARCHISTS REJECTED.
The anarchist would-be delegates were
outside the hall waiting for a decision.
and when 1t was announced to them
they became highly indignant. 1t was
finally decided to force an entrance into
the hall, and the decision was no sooner
arrived at than 1t was carried out. A
rush was made for the doorkeepers,
who were speedily upset, and tine crowd
of anarchists made their way to the
gallery. Then arose a perfect babel.
The delegates shouted in their native
man, Italian. Spanish and English, that
the intruders should be put out.
Finally, when the voice of speaker
could be heard above the din. Tom Mann
and James kier Hardie addressed the
chair in advocacy of the admission of
one of the anarchists. Other speakers
opposed the proposition, and the argu-
ment waxed until it appeared that there
was decidedly favorable chance of
yesterdays disgraceful scene being re-
peated
Herr Singer finally succeeded in OBJ
tanning "A little order and it was then
agreed that properly accredited anarch-
lists should be admitted. but should be
allowed to take no part in the deba tes.
Later another vote was taken and it
was decided to uphold the Zurich reso-
luton, which. in effect provides that
anarchists shall not be admitted.
There the question remains at pres
ent
