generals memory.
The address will this year be deliv-
cred by Gen. John c. Black. whose
hurts received in the civil war were so
severe as to warrant his being awarded
the highest pension possible under the
general law. He was shot through both
arms and both legs and through the
lungs and his wounds still trouble him.
He is a strong Grand Army man and
though while the struggle was on he
was not often thrown into close per-
sonal contact with the hero he is TO
eulogize. he yields to none in loving
regard for his memory.
OTHER MEMORIALS TO GRANT
1t was In Leavenworth. Kan. that
the first statue was erected in memory
of Grant. The next TO be set up was
at ST. Louis, then came the one at Ga
lena and then the magnificent statue
by Rebisso at Chicago. which is one
OF the finest. most hfelike pieces of
sculpture in the country. besides being
one Of the largest equestrian statues
in the world. New York has no Grant
statue, nor is one in sight. In Brook

period. The Bunker Hill monument
was 80 years building, IL took 40 years
to complete the Washington monu-
ment. and from u to II years is re-
quired to complete such memorials in
European countries.
THE GRANT FAMILY.
Each member Of the Grant family
and especially Col. Fred ID. Grant, who
as the eldest son. may properly be re-
garded as its head. feels deeply the
significance of the great reverence for
the generals memory shown by the
people in the erection of statues and
the holding of memorial services every
year on his birthday. In a conversa-
ton with the writer recently. Colonel
Grant spoke at some length upon this
point. His presence at the Grant mem
orial services is of course in great de-
mand. and the invitations received by
him this year could only be numbered
by the hundreds From Manhattan
Island alone he received fifteen. but he
was obliged TO decline all Of these.

Do you see" a man when you see

Scarcely. Yet the sensation hunters
who so persistently announce what

would have to answer yes TO this
question; that is, il they had any re-

anything with y rays in any other
way than this. and unless the rays de-
velop qualities quite opposite to those
which they have exhibited hitherto, no
one ever will see anything with them

be unveiled on the 25th, and in Phila-
delphia another, also showing the gen.
eral on horseback, is shortly to be set
up. This statue will be erected In
Paramount park. 1t will be the joint
work of Daniel c. French, who modelled
the figure of Grant. and Edward c.
Potter. who modelled the figure of the

but IL will not be finished before June

Both these statues are considered adj
mirable in conception and almost per

surrender of Lee, and others who have

METEOR WHEN IN BUSINESS

We Owe Oar Immunity to Our Atmos-
Phers which Serves as IA shield.
From the Spectator.
We owe our immunity to our atnnos-
phere, which serves as a bullet-p proof
cuirass for the world. When a meteor
enters the atmosphere, the friction
produced by its gigantic speed makes
II flash up like the arrow of Acestes,
only more so. The ingenious expert
ments of Lord Kelvin have shown that
the heat thus produced, just as
brake showers sparks from the carri-
age wheel, or a lucifer match lights on
the box, is sufficient to consume the
meteor as if it were suddenly cast into
a furnace heated to 3.000,0 900 or 1000. 600
degrees. Obviously the smaller meteors
are utterly consumed before they have
penetrated far into the atmosphere
which their fate has shown to rise TO
height Of about 120 miles.
Only a very large one can descend,
as that of Madrid is said to have done.
to within 20 miles of the earth before
being burst by the expansion due to
heat and by the resistance of the air
The fact that fragments do occasion
ally reach the earth is the best proof
of the great size of some of the meteors
that we encounter. If ii were not for
the blessed air." the explosion of them
all, with the accompanying fervent
heat. would take place in our midst
II is safe 10 say that such a state OF
things would render our great towns
uninhabitable. In London we are some
times inclined to grid at the atmos-
phere. with its smoke and its fog and
it's east wind. But none Of US can tell
how often il has saved him from a ter

Edison's achievements as an inven-
tor are so great and so widely known
that IL has become the fashion to cred
IL him with the invention OF every
known mechanical or electrical device
from the telegraph to the boot jack.
The New Jersey wizard doubtless
smiles as he listens TO the chorus. A
man was overheard the other day dis
cussing those Y rays of Edison's. {"
and so IL is not wonderful that people
are talking about "Edison's instru-
ment for seeing through the body"
There are only two errors In this de-
scription; the instrument Is not Edi-
sons and no one can see through any
thing with it-except a milestone with
a hole in It, Arthur Z. Bostwick.

At this stage Of proceedings Mr.. Edi-
son appeared with a new and highly
sensitive chemical. which he had dis
covered by patient trial. after his Gus
tom. With this he produced a more
sensitive cryptoscope, which he calls a
microscope" and he was Immediately
hailed by the more indiscreet of his ad-
mirers with the title of inventor OF the
whole instrument and the whole pro-
cess.
