at the time Of Alfred the Great 87O,-
672, 600. 900 ancestors and at that Of
William the Conqueror 8,698, O94, ,b92.
This is simple matter of arithmetioal
calculation. Every child has two par
ents, four grandparents, and so on, the
number doubling with each generation
in the ascending line. But, TO take the
later period Of William the Oonqquer0f,
we know very we'll that there was no
such number Of people on earth at that
Or any other time as 8. 500, 600, 900. At

appears to break down. It is only by
the repetition Of these ancestors many
times that we can escape the force Of

Professor Patrick Deer, high diver.
trapeze performer and aeronaut made
q balloon ascension the other day from
the deck Of a whaleback while en-
route from Chicago to Milwaukee. The
whaleback left Chicago with between
1000 and 5000 people on board. Ex-
actly at 11:04 O'Clock in the morning,
when the steamer was eight miles out
in the lake, between Kenosha and Wan
kegan, the great engines ceased to pulls
ate and the whaleback came to stand
still. The process Of imitation was very
rapid. In Is minutes from the time the
vessel stopped the balloon shot upward
from the deck, dragging after it the
parachute. from which the professor
hung by his teeth. The balloon ascend
ed 5000 feet, when the parachute sud-
denly parted. It fell 400 feet before il
caught the air. A second after It opened
the professor reversed his position and
hung by his feet. He remained in this
attitude until the parachute had sunk
to within 200 feet of the surface of the
lake. when he dived and struck the
water safely. A boat picked him and
his balloon up soon after. The balloon
used by Professor Deer is Of his own
make and is called an "air splitter. "

tremely graceful in the air. .-Exchapge.

the remains Of several ancient cities which
had been built one after another on the
Same hill. In the second layer from the
bottom he discovered masses of silver In
the form of axe heads. DIR. Gotze now
suggests that these were intended not for
Implements, but for money. Bronze axe
heads have also been discovered In ancient
remains, mingled with metal pieces In the
form Of rings, In such a manner as to sug-
gest that all alike were inteued to serve as
money. After the axe head had disappeared
As actual money the memory Of IL was pre-
served In the coins of Tenedos, which bore
