The Canals of Mars.

As the result of lUng-continued and very
successful observations In Arizona and
Mexico, Mr. Percival Lowell concludes,
as quoted in the New York Herald, that
the canals of the planet Mars show such
"a marvellous system as cannot wei be
due to any natural forces, and finds its
best explanation in the presence of loC al
intelligence on the planet, Which has pur
UoSely created a system OF irrigation for
the perpetuation of its own existence -
Mr.. Lowell thinks there is little or no
water in lakes or seas on Mars, and that
the planets water supply comes from
the snow and ice at It's poles, which melt
rapidly in summer. The canals he believes
to have been constructed TO care for and to
distribute this annual flood from the fast
melting ice caps of the polar regions
Such astronomy as this that Mr. Lowell
has been busy with must be of great use
