NEW ORLEANS.
The Newly Acquiered Amazonas Re.

Washington, March 21-Secretary
Long has issued an order that the Am

at Newcastle-on- Tyne from the Brazil
ian government, hereafter shall bear
the name of New Orleans, in honor of
the principal city of Louisiana. Tele-
graphic instructions were sent to the
naval officer in command of the vessel,
who will take immediate steps TO carry
them into effect. New Orleans was
chosen as the name of the warshfp ac-
quired from the sister republic OF
South America for the reason that
Louisiana is one of the very few States
of the union not represented in the
navy at this time. There was quite a
contest among several other cities to
have the new warship named in their
honor, Albany, n. Y, Providence, R. l..
and Buffalo, n Y, advancing their
claims quite strenuously.

BULKIEsT OBJECT IN EXISTENCE

Discussing the question of Jupiter
having an atmospher- and being the
abode of human beings, learned writ
er in recent article makes some curl
GUS statements. For instance, he
claims that if there are human beings
on the big planet they must of neces-
sity be of enormous stature; and if one
of them were translated to our earth
his bulk would not only surprise us
but it could not be moved by we Or
binary people except by machinery.
We do not wish to belittle any per-
son, be he a resident of Jupiter or
Kokomo; nor do we wish to enter a
debate with a specialist on such high
ly scientific questions as those advanc-
ed by our learned writer. But we do
wish to cite an instance which may
show that all the bulks are not on
Jupiter
One fof the most massive objects in
the whole solar system is the Hon.
Thomas Bracket Reed. BY the use of
the spectrum it has been figured that
Mr.. Reed weighs as much as any other
planet in its orbit. Nobody can move
him, as he is immovable. The north
star may think it Is fixed, but it is a
SYfdtlnS, WdDDlluS piece VI gaseous
matter compared with Mr.. Reed. For
several months nearly 400 members
of Congress, assisted by several mill
lions of people of this country, have
been endeavoring to move him, but he
is as stationary as that other great
luminary, the sun.
But, like the moon, Mr.. Reed has
been dead for several million years,
which, according to astronomers, ac-
counts for his immortality. When
all that is was nebulae Nh. Reed was
the only thing that did not respond
TO the law of centrifugal and centri-
petal and rotary motion. He stuck
fast and would not be moved. The
presence of the stars is said 70 be
caused by planets humping against
him and breaking into chunks; the
star dust of to-day is the pieces still
suffering from the contact.
1t is these unparalleled qualities that
make Mr.. Reed Indispensable to the
Republican Congress, upon which ne
sits and now and again blinks.-NeW
