by theorists and visionaries. seldom
command enough support to receive re.
rious consideration. There IL a sound
conservatism, which fortunately Is pop.
ular, against meddling with the text Of
that historic instrument which Is the
great charter Of our institutions. There
Is now upon the calendar Of the Senate,
however, a Joint resolution, which has
received the favorable report Of the
Judiciary Committee, and which has
behind 1t the force Of Its provision for
possible exlgency. This amendment,
which 1t Is proposed to submit to the
Legislatures Of the several States for
their approval, Is designed to meet the
contingency of the death Of President.
elect, between the time when the elec.
tOral college casts Its vote, early In Jan.
uary, and March 4, the date Of the In.
augurati0n. At present, there Is no pro.
vision by which another President
could be elected, and Congress has no
authority to supply the deficiency. The
Prcsident-clect occupies n position Of
peculiar responsibility and Of possible
danger. Had the plot to assassinate
Lincoln at Baltimore on his way to
Washington succeeded, there would
have been no legal method to choose
his successor and a state Of anarchy
would have preceded the civil war. Had
Blaine been nominated by the Minneap.
oils convention and elected, there would
have been similar dilemma, as his
lamented death occurred on Jan. %.
Four Presidents Of the United States
have died within few weeks after
their Inauguration. 1t would seem.
therefore, entirely wise to confer In ex.
press terms upon Congress the power
to provide for the case where there Ia
no person entitled to hold the Office of
President or Vice President, declaring
what officer shall then net as Presi.

Congress may split hairs to their brains
content over the precise form and Ian.
guage Of this amendment, but It's pur.
pose is as plain as Its need IL obvious.

Professor Kenjiro Fulfil OF the I'm 4

comes 10 the following conclusions.
That the sex OF the flowers is unde-
termined until certain stage OF their
growth. and that q flower that would
otherwise develop into male has
tendency 10 become a female when To-
cal increase of rourishment takes
place al a certain stage. or during GER

very interesting 10 note that this dis
covery as 10 the law regulating the
reproduction OF the separate sexes in
flowers was first made and reported
some quarter of century ago by Prof.
Thomas Meehan: and the paper read
by him before the American SOciety
for the Advancement OF Science ap-
pears in the printed proceedings Of the
Salem meeting. The doctrine met with
some opposition az that time. Prof.
Agassiz especially making a powerful
protest against the sentiments OF the
paper. But il has since been adopted
as a demonstration. and is the ac

this subject in the ninth edition Of

that OF the japanese scientist in this.

The fish. meat or game TO be preserved
