 One of the methods of testing the question of the existence of a percep- tible atmosphere on the moon is the observation of star at the Instant when 1t disappears. or emerges from behind the moon. If there were lu- mar atmosphere It should produce some effect on the appearance of the star. No such effect has ever certainly been observed. Recently this method has been rendered more delicate, perhaps, by the application of photography. Photographs of stars, made as they are about to disappear behind the lunar disk, show no indications of change in the intensity of the image such as would be expected to occur if the moon had q perceptible atmosphere.

God early blessed the earth with flowers
Without them Eden had no bowers;
They graced the place of AbePs rest.
Since, conQuerors have chapfets worn,
Intensest tolls for wreaths been borne;
Have mothers twined the evergreen,
With fairest flowers the space between,
And thus their living-dead have dress
ed.
Thus in the Orient to-day,
As in the past these passions play
And Greece and Rome still garland
flowers,
Then why should not this land of ours
With higher, holier feelings graced!
Brave comrades, now we bid you sleep
While these memorials we keep;
And may that hand that gives the MOWERS
Assure US all the peaceful bowers
Where naught of strife or war are
traced. H. u. JOHNSON.

Memorial Day, 1898.

To-day we Ger our loved ones stand,
Near four score millions of the land
And in our. minds their forms arise;
Their beaming faces greet our eyes
AS in the days of other years;
We roam with them the fields again,
We entertain their schemes as men;
They mete to US a fathers joys
Their very tones are in our ears.
'Tfs but a moment thus it seems
These sodded mounds dispel our dreams
And then arises strife of words
That through the land for years was
Ger wrongs that only time can cure;
The call to arms, the crimsoned strife,
That SAVIOR OF nations life;
The fond good-byes IN weeping homes,
Within our hearts unWritten tones,
That sought sad hearts to reassure;
The suit of blue. opposing gray,
The furloughed visit for day;
The letters speaking of wild scenes,
Portraying the strategic means
Which soldiers use, that soldiers dare
The missiye writ by stranger hands,
The group that then is mourning stand:
Ger pallied form-form close encased
Because Of comeliness effaced
BY battle wound or prison fare.
To-day we come with heart and hand
To honor that immortal band;
To say again Tho dead, they're ours,
To deck their beds with choicest flowers
Inc laurel cross, the myrtle CROWN.
Now as we with them thus commune,
May we our hearts again attune
To love of country, human kind.
No matter what the race We find,
And vow on every wrong to frown.
Remembered, too, be those whoi gave
The heritage these fell to sayel
Strew flowers for him whose ashes sleeI
Where the Potomacs waters sweep,
For all his comrades high and low;
For those who stayed the Briton's prid.
To lord it Ger the oceans tide;
For those who on our borders wild
Have striven with the forest child,
Or nametess sleep in Mexico;
The hundreds who upon the Maine
Went down through treachefy of Spain
Who with the concentrate died
OF every human right denied,
Through Weyler- Blanco policy;
Who on the oceans crimsoned tide
From pure humanity have died,
That baseness might be overthrown,
A hemisphere self-ruhng known
And We Cuba libre" see,
AS thus around our gifts we streW,
We may this sacred rite review!

A story came recently from Montreal
that Spain had secured from France the
Island of Miquelon, off the coast of New
foundland, as coaling station, from
which point, as base, a Spanish fleet
could operate against the towns and
cities of the North Atlantic coast of the
United States. There has been no con-
frmation of the story. If France per-
mitted such acquisition pending a war
between the United States and Spain, it
would be distinct act of unfriendliness
amounting to violation of the neutral
ity laws. Spain could not hope to hold
the island SO near to our coast. It's
fortification could not now be made ad-
equate to successful defense.

1t is singular that in these days the

time when they were the inveterate foes

revenged themselves upon them
in terrible manner Philip

Dominic de Gourgues avenged his coun-

an expedition and descended upon the
Spanish, who were found in three forts.
He overcame them and following the
Spanish precedent butchered the garri-
sons, not sparing one, Menendez, alone
escaping. Later he returned to Florida
and re-established Spanish rule The
worst of it was that the two expedi-

grounds, proving anew that religious
wars are the most merciless of ALL
