The Mnchete.

As defensive weapon the value of
the machete is small Even its offensive
effect depends less ON the weapon itself
than ON the continual and skillful
usage made Of it by the Cuban peasant
from his earlier age, which imparts II
peculiar training TO the muscles of the
wrist and arm of the operator The
consequence of this skill is that when
ever quarrel occurs between two
"guajiros" or "monetros" they settle
the matter with their machetes as cour-
ageonsly and tepnciously as two game
cocks. and generally both parties are
seriously injured for life or are killed
on the SPOT
Owing to this fact and to the natu
raj kindly disposition of the Cuban
peasants, they are not quarrelsome
people and respect everybody. to be
equally respected With the machete a
few curious accessories are used, The
principal are thin strip of leather
closely tied 20 the right wrist. small
round piecso grinding stone to sharpen
the edge of the tool. and whenever the
mmchete is employed TO cut down the
thorny heath of tropical vegetation a
small branch of special shape, called
the "garabato. is used to bold the
heath and do rapid work without be.
ing injured by thorns. Island of Cuba

Til. SUM Nation,

An astronomical fact now as former
ly causing no little perplexity to some
is that the suns motion which nm
questionably and indisputably is ex-
trtIuely quick does not change the
relative position of the solar system to
the fl ed stars and the consultations
more than it actually does. and there
are some who ON this account are in
clined To doubt the actual motion of
the sun in space.
The Investigations of astronomers
have nevertheless esta blished one thing
as certain namely. that the sun moves
through space at great speed-esti-
mated by some scientists at | d miles n
second carrying all the planets satel-
Etes and other coemical bodies along
with it. but this motion of the vast
luminary, while affecting. of course
the real motion of the planets in space
does not in even the slightest degree
affect the relative motion of sun and
planets
Even under TIE supposition of so
great n rate as 10 miles in one second.
this relative positioE of the sun to the
fixed stars would. astronomers declare
be hardly perceptible in century. on
account of the almost inconceivable
distance Of the latter-the conclusion
being. therefore that many thousands of
yenrs must pass before tie sun = proper
motion in space can change the contig-
uration of the star groups.
