Mars Has No Air or water.

Not only are there no water on Mars,
but there is no air, or very little. Spec
troscopic observations at the Lick Oh
servatory, far more complete and thor.
oughgoing than those made at other
stations, writes Prot. Edward :. Holden
in McClure's Magazine, lead 10 the con-
clusion that the atmosphere on Mars is
certainly less in amount than that sur
rounding the summit on the highest
Himalsyan peaks. 1t is by no means
certain that what air there is is Of the
right kind for human beings TO breathe.
All telescope observation leads To the
conclusion that there are no clouds on
Mars. II there were air and water
clouds would certainly form. The Sky
of Mars is absolutely sunny. 1t is safe
TO say that, speaking generally, Mars
is a planet without water, without air
in any marked quantity and totally
unfit for the abode Of human beings.

The Grand Flower Pardde.


Miles OF roses, miles Of magnolias. miles
OF every flower growing in the south.
This is what one Of the chief features.
the gorgeous street flower parade. will
be, and which will transcend all like ef
forts ever given in the South. There
will be traps, drags, landaus, stauhopes,
phaetons, surrey-, buggies, automobiles,
runabouts, tea carts, tally-hos, floats,
dog and pony and goat carts or wagons
and every conceivable vehicle that runs
on wheels in the immense procession,
and each and every one Of them will he
decorated, entwined. smothered with
flowers, natural and imitation. The
flower parade held in Memphis during
the Dewey reception last May was sue
cess, for it was a. beautiful and at.
tractiye a. eye could wish to see. But
this year it will pale into insgnifcance,
for the parade committee i determined
to make the reunion spectacle simply
perfect, and Of much huger dimensions
than the affair year ago. Letters have
been received from parties in Helena and
Pine Bluff, from far away Florida, dis
tant points in Georgia and Texas, noti-
tying the parade committee that they are
making preparations to take part in the
parade, and asKlng after details. 4
brief description Of the parade which
took place last year will serve To give an
idea of what may be expected when the
mammoth procession is arranged and
completed for the reunion.
When Admiral Dewey signiied his con.
sent to visit Memphis last May a floral
parade suggested itself TO the arrange
mentS committee as being in every way
most fitting TO show 20 the Admiral the
appreciation for him of the Southern PEG.
pie. The work was taken up with cnthu-
siasm by the ladies Of Memphis, and in
the process of completion developed into
one of the most beautiful entertainments
which had up 10 that time been offered
to the people OF the Middle South. The
parade was billed 10 start at 3 in the
afternoon Of May 5, but already as carly
as 2 o'clock gaily bedccked vehicles were
driving past a given point in order TO be
photographed prior TO the parade proper.

Hart would watch the sport from the
beach.
Once In the water, Mary's spirits
seemed bubbling over, and she was
soon daring Dalton to try a race to a
dory moored a short distance from the
beach. He seemed reluctant at first,
and was sure it was too near the cur
rent of the runway, but to take dare
from Mary and have her taunt him
with lack of courage was too much for
young man Of his temperament.
She was wading toward the boat and
when but a few strokes from it, call
ed back laughingly: Twill you swim
for It, Tom? If you reach it first I'll
be your prize, sir"
He was striking out after her as soon
as the words had left her lips.
She had nearly reached the dory and,
confident of winning the race, put her
hand up to catch the gunwale; then
missed it and suddenly discovered she
was out of her depth and In the rum
way current.
toni! she cried, and then all Tom
saw was a pair of frightened upturned
eyes and terror stricken face, as she
swept under the surface.
A fine predicament for lover who
was not brave man and who had not
learned to swim Drawing a deep
breath, blind to all danger and with no
thought but to save her or to die with
her. Tom struck out into the current
and under the surface.
His heart thumped wildly as he felt
a mass of that sun-gold hair come into
his grasp and in a moment more they
rose to the surface. Through his salt
dimmed eyes Tom saw a bit of rope
and grasped 1t. They had come up I'M
der the stern of the dory, which had
swung into the current with them, and
he was now firmly grasping a bit of
painter which hung over the stern.
In few minutes more he had lifted
her over the side, clambered In after
and was chatting her hands briskly.
Mrs. Harris cries from the beach had
brought the Cobbs to the scene and
Master Harry was running a dory

1t had all happened in a very few
minutes. Mary opened her eyes

An Efficient Watchman.

A gigantic Waterman, ten feet tall,
the story of whose exploit is taken
from the Brooklyn Eagle, is an os-
trich, living on an ostrich farm in
Florida. He is named Napoleon, and
regularly acts as Waterman, patroll-
ing the camp, and giving at intervals
a cry that may be interpreted to mean,
"Af's we'll"
If anything alarms him, he at once
communicates his alarm to his compan-
ions by a series of yells as he adj
vances to the attack.
He is a bird of unusual intelligence,
but is very savage. AT night ii is es-
pecially dangerous to go near him. To
see his keeper force him back to his pen
in the morning is one of the sights of
the farm. A large fork is the keepers
weapon, and before it the bird slowly
gives way, screeching with rage and
striking out with his feet.
One night Napoleon caught a thief.
The farm hands were all asleep when
there arose a terrible hubbub. which,
as the men became awake enough to
distinguish sounds, resolved itself into
the angry cries of Napoleon and the
shrieks Of a human being.
Rushing to the pen, the men saw the
ostrich chasing a negro. The fellow
had come to the pheasants' quarter to
steal pheasants, and had been discov-
cred by Napoleon. When he tried to
get over the fence the bird struck him
a glancing blow on the thigh, which
ripped open the flesh and exposed the
bone. For time it was thought that
the negro would bleed to death.
