It VIII Probably Keep Warm for
Twenty Million Years.
According to the most recent investi'
cations, the temperature Of the sun Is
somewhere between 5000 and 5000 de-
grees ccntgrade, and there are reasons
for believing that for hundreds OF
thousands, perhaps for millions. OF
years, It has been radiating heat into
space with no appreciable loss Of tenn
perature.
Were the sun simply a cooling mass
Of stone or metal 1t must ages ago have
lost both its heat and Its light; were II
a globe Of burning carbon it can easily
be calculated that 1t would have burned
out in about 5000 years. Where, then,
does It get its heat supply 10 q question
frequently asked.
We are 80 accustomed to regard fire,

heat, or at any rate of intense heat,

may be other sources, equally abund.

sort known in physics as mechanical

We are familiar enough with the first
two sources. though ordinarily the
amount Of heat which we perceive to
be thus developed Ii not great, but heat
produced by compression Is not so often
brought to our notice. From a variety
of experiments, however, 1t can be
shown that whenever a metal, as a
piece Of lead, or the air. or. indeed, any

astronomers are now inclined to look
for the main supply OF the solar en-
ersy.
This hea was first suggested by
Helmholz, and It has been taken up and
elaborated by Lord Kelvin. According
to the theory of these scientists the

A REVOLUTIONARY TAVERN.

Washington, Adams and Monroe.
The old building on Court street,
known as the Parsons tavern. which is
celebrated as the hOetelry where
George Washington stopped at least
once in passing through Springfield, is
now being torn down to make room for
a modern tenement block. 1t was prob
ably the second oldest building in town,
and has been used for a tenement
house of late years.
The building was one of the taverns
of revolutionary days and was about
$50 years old. 1t stood, when built,
on the southeast corner of the present
Court square. 1t was large structure

whom 1t was built is not matter Of

however. Great hand-hewn timbers
formed the framework and were Joined
by wooden pegs. Every nail, hinge,
brace, or other bit of ironwork was
hand forged. All the woodwork that
was mea Mt to show was fiuted, chiseled
or nodded. Even the narrow clapboards
had a nodded edge and were grooved.
No paint ever touched their sturdy
sides or any part of the exterior of the
old house to any extent, and the shag-

The present site Of Court square was
always the center Of attraction for the
town. There We're the church, the
court house, the whipping post, and

were held there, and on training day
all congregated near the old Parsons
tavern, where the young men would
try wrestling Consequently the tavern
was always a rendezvous and place
where gossip dwelt in company with
flipirons and toddy. 1t appears that
Zenas Parsons was the first host, and
from him the tavern took Its name. It
was while he was landlord that on
Oct. p, 1889. Washington spent the
night in the tavern while on a visit to
New England. The great man slept in

OUT OF THE FIRE.
The Obedience Of the Horse Saved !
Life.

The Obedience Of the Horse Saved uia
Life.
The common belief that horses In q
burning building are always panic
stricken and refractory, not recogn!s.
ing their friends and refusing Obedi-
,, Is not strictly true, as Is proved BY An
incident related by q Youths Compan4
ion contributor.
The governor had q fine black driv.
ing horse called Dexter. Although
strong and spirited. Dexter was docile
and Obedient, and was petted and made
much of by his master. AS the govern.
or kept no other horse, Dexter had the
stable all to himself, with clean stall
and a full manger.
The stable was near the house, and
in addition to Dexter's stall and har-
ness-room, contained q large carriage
room, an oat-bin, and q haymoW over
the stall.
One night, when the family and the
servants were away from home and
the governor was in the house alone,
he was awakened by an ominous
cracking and q bright glare on his
chamber window, and before he could
collect his sleepy wits he was startled
by a cry unlike any sound he had ever
heard. As he sprang out of bed the
cry came again, and fastening to the
window he learned the cause. The
stable was all ablaze, and out Of the
smoke and flames Dexter was calling
his master to his rescue.
Pausing only to don coat and slip
pers. the governor rushed out. The
outside door Of the stable leading into
the stall was already blocked by
flames, and the only entrance to be
had was through the carriage-room, the
harness-room and a narrow entry lead
ing past the oat-bin. These rooms
were on fire overhead. and burning
wisps Of hay and shingles were raining
down N showers.
Blinded by smoke, the governor
stumbled along the roundabout way,
and reaching the stall sooner than he
expected, fell headlong down the steps
against the excited animal, who was
some new danger threatened him, Dex-
ter gave a mighty kick that sent his
master sprawling and lamed him for
q month.
Whoa, De1terv' shouted the govern
or. Don't you know me, sir? Steady
now, old fellow, and Wen get out Of
this"
Recognizing his masters voice, Dex-
ter turned his head toward the pros
trate man and uttered a coaxing whin-
ny quite unlike his previous loud cries
of alarm. Knowing he need fear no
more kicks, the governor crept up and
cut the halter. and calling Dexter to
follow him, limped blindly through the
smoke-filled entry and the two blazing
rooms beyond. And close after him
went Dexter, his nose pressed against
his masters shoulder, man and horse
reaching the safe outer air together.
1T was Dexter's obedience that saved
him." said the governor. 81 could not
lead him, and had he shown the least
obstinacy, or any less readiness to fol-
low at eword through HI that round
labout, unaccustomed way, mu 1--we

FIFTEEN DAYS IN OPEN BOAT.
TerriabIe Experience of Crew of Kin
kora In Making Acapulco.


kora In Making Acapulco.
While the sailing vessel Kinkara was
on her way from Vancouver to Lon
don she sprang a leak. All hands
pumped ILL April 27, when the crew
went to Captain McMurtry and refused
to- pump any longer. He decided to
make for Clipperton Island, 200 miles
OF. Late on April 20 the island was
sighted. There were three men on the
island and the stars and stripes were
flying. The port lifeboat was pulled
through the surf. She capsized, but the
six men managed to swim ashore.
When the crew were next able to visit
the ship-two days afterward-eyery-
thing was under water. The island be-
longed to the Oceanic Phosphate Com
pany of San Francisco, and the three
men had been on it since September
of last year. There was not tree of
any kind and not the slightest vegeta-
ton. After being on the island eigh-
teen days. and no schooner turning up,
the Americans said it might be next
September before the vessel would ar
rive.
So Captain McMurtry and his crew
decided to put off in their two boats
for Acapulco, In Mexico, distant about
100 miles.
When the shipwrecked people were
on the island they caught quantities OF
fish, which, with gannet eggs, was their
chief means Of subsistence. One OF
the boats got smashed in the water.
1t was agreed that the mate, Mr.. Nc
Murtry (who was a brother Of the COM
mander), Mr.. Shape and six seamen
should go. They calculated they would
take twelve days to reach Acapulco;
they took fifteen.
For the first six days and nights they
had very heavy tropical rains, with
nothing to shelter them; sleeping OK
waking they were drenched. When the
sun came out in the day 1t was scorch-
ing hot
The men arrived at Acapulco on June
8. They never saw a sail during the
fifteen days, but the day before they
got in they saw smoke rising at a dis
tancs. 1t was from II. NJ. 8. Amphiou,
which left Acapulco the day before
they arrived. Had the Amphion seen
them 1t would have saved II. NJ. s.
Comus going to Clipperton Islands.
They were about forty days on the isl.
and when the Comus rescued them.
