Prof. Pickering makes the following
statement relative to the light flash
from Mars: Early in December
we received from the Lowell Observa.
tory in Arizona telegram that shaft
of light had been seen to project from
Mars (the Lowell Observatory makes a
specially OF Mars) lasting seventy
minutes. I wired these facts to Eur
ope and sent out neostyle copies
through this country. The observer
there is a careful, reliable man, and
there is no reason to doubt that the
light existed. 1t was given as from
q well.known geographical point OF
Mars. That was all. Now the story
has gone the world over. In Europe
it is stated that I have been in com.
munication with Mars, and all sorts
Of exaggerations have sprung up
Whatever the light was we have nc
means OF knowing. Whether it had
intelligence or not no one can say. II
is absolutely explicable."

MiLLIONAIRES OF THE PAST.

Croesus was by no means the rich
est OF the ancients, despite his having
had his name adopted as the synonym
for wealth. The glory and grandeur
OF Sardanapalus, the magnificent of
the Roman Emperors, the dazzling
splendors of the Pharoahs, of Cleopat-
ra, OF Darius, of Alexander, were evil
dences OF material resources far ex-
ceeding those of Croesus. Yet the &C.
tual bequeathable wealth of even the
Roman Emperors, with all their power
OF absorption by conquest, taxation,
conhscatiOn, the exaction of tribute,
and what not, did not represent prob
ably half as much positive ownership
as the wealth of many millionaire of
to day who possess neither title nor
dignity beyond that which his self
made position confers upon him.
The Emperor Tiberius left at his
death above 2S,5OO,OOO, it is sup
posed; but Lii Hung Chang of to-day
is reported to be three or four times as
rich as the imperial Roman, while
Mr.. Belt could have bought him up
several times over. Nor is it likely
that the fortunes of any OF the living
millionaires named will vanish as the
fortunes OF the ancients occasionally
did. Tiberius's millions were squan-
dered in less than year by his dissi-
pated successor, Caligula, which is not
to be wondered at when as much as
5000 was spent on single dinner ;
but it was "easy come, and easy CO."
with the riches of the Roman rulers
Caesar was not given to parsimony,
yet even before he attained supreme
power he had feathered his nest to the
tune OF nearly E3,O00,OO0, and in his
latter years all the affluence he could
desire, but riches did not mean stabil.

hight OF her power, had command OF
an enormous avenue, and was lavish
in her giving as in her spending. Did
she not on one memorable occasion
make the favored and infatuated An
tony a present OF diamond valued at

A Marvel in Photography.

A photograph, which is said to be
the largest in the world, was recently
taken of the general office OF Swift &
Co., at the Union Stock Yards, Chi
cago. This room has a floor area of
46,91S square feet, and here 700 clerks
are employed. A large number Of
flashlights had to be lighted simultan-
eously, so that electricity was used,
says the Western Electrician. A stor-
age battery with twenty cells was in
stalled temporarily and connected to
the temporary circuit in pairs, giving
a pressure of four volts and a large
current capacity. Three hundred
charges Of flashlight powder were ar
ranged around the room, and the fuses
to ignite them were all connected in
multiple to insure simultaneous igni-
tion. A stage was built in one corner
OF the room for the large camera. The
plate used was A. by s feet in size. A
heavy plate-glass plate was coated with
emulsion for the purpose. In develop
ing it, four men were required for its
handling.

It Wilt Not Down.
Yakima Republic.


The first word the Governor has
said about the State capitol warrant
deal was spoken at Walla Walla last
week to reporter for the Statesman.
He said: "In my opinion we made a
good bargain. These bonds are not
guaranteed by the State. and the Su-
preme Court has decided that the
State is not responsible for their pay
ment. They are based upon lands of
uncertain value. Even the interest
on these bonds is not secure, but is de-
pendent upon the whims of each sue
ceeding Legislature" II this is all
the Governor has to say on the sub.
ject, he might as we'll have said moth
ing. 1t was not charged that the war
rants were worth moro than he got for
them, but that he sold them secretly
to a favorite; that he made no at
tempt to sell them at the highest
price that could be obtained that he
not only neglected but refused to give
others besides the favorite q chance to
bid on them. His opinion that he
made a good bargain ia not to the
point. Of course he holds to that
opinion. Men who buy and sell such
paper have said that they ought to
have sold higher, and it is their opin-
ion-an opinion OF some value-that

A Question Of Color.

In the South Carolina legislature
the President of the Senate and the
Speaker Of the House wear silk robes
while presiding over their respective
houses. This custom is nearly Gen.
tury old, and its origin is somewhat
obscure. Present attention to the
matter arises from a change in the
color of the robes from the original
ultramarine blue Over this the
South Carolina papers are justly agi.
tated. At one time, far distant, the
robe was red, instead of blue, but both
colors are those OF the national flag,
and either, in the South Carolina
view, is preferable to the robe OF royal
purple donned by the speaker at the
recent session, the gown OF heliotrope
gracefully worn by the President OF
the Senate. There was evident need

Progressive Dinners.

The progressive dinner" party is
one of the novelties" of the spring
season. 1t is aunique affair and is
probably enjoying its popularity for
that very reason. AS one matron
says, it is "deal of trouble and
causes no end OF confusion" The
confusion is of the kind, though, that
reigned when "going to jerusalem
in our days of short frocks and knick-
erbockers and everybody knows what
a lot of fun that was.
OF course, at a progressive dinner"
the confusion is slightly moderated,
just as our frocks have grown longer
and the knickerbockers heightened.
A progressive dinner" is one at
which the men change seats with one
another in rotation at the end Of each
course. The walters carry along the
wine glasses. The object of the
change, of course, is to provide new
sets of partners rs often as possible.

TROUBLE WITH BRITISH ARMY
A. NJ. Lowe, in Harper's Weekly.

A. N. Lowe, in ilarpers Weekly.
Kipling, the poet of empire and the
gloritier OF the British army, says oI
his country's officers that they care as
good as good can be, because their
training begins early, and God has ar.
ranged that clean-run youth of the
British middle classes shall, in the
matter of backbone, brains and bowels
surpass all other youths" From the
exuberant fancy of the romancer turn
to the sober testimony of facts. at
has been within the last five years
constantly officially reported that at
musketry inspection some 70 or SO per
cent. OF the men did not know the
distances to which their rifles were
sighted on back and dial sights, and
that officers and non-commissioned
officers could not give correct COM
mands Tor opening fire." This is not
the biased opinion of foreigner. 1t
is a sentence from an English maya
zine article written by Lieutenant
Colonel Pennington, formerly in COM
mand of the Second Battalion of the
Northumberland Fusiliers-the term
battalion in England corresponding
with regiment in the United States.
Colonel Pennington's assertion seems
almost incredible, yet it is not proba-
bic he has maliciously and untruth-
fully held up his brother officers to the
derision of military men the world
over, or that a magazine so careful
of its reputation as the Fortnightly
Review would stand sponsor for such
an amazing charge unless it had full
confidence in the writer. After read
ing Colonel Pennington's article, it is
easier TO understand why disaster was
reported from South Africa. Two
sentences show the utter disorganiza-
ton that prevails: Commanding
officers of battalions in England are
unanimous in stating in general terms
that they never see their battalions;
and it follows that captains of com.
panies rarely see their commanders
Under such conditions, to expect war
efficiency is to expect modern mira
cle." And this explains inefficient
craftsmanship: "The captains rarely
see their companies for instructional
purposes except during the limited
period OF some three weeks when an
official curriculum of exercises is car
risd out, and agair for hurried fort
night when musketry is rushed
through.

for new robes, as it is learned from the
Charleston Post that the one worn at
this session by the speaker was sue
cessor to one made for Speaker James
Slmons in 1889 at cost of 81 200.
That robe, as shown in a portrait OF
Speaker Simons. was blue, and The
Post asks that that color, which has
some historical associations, be fixed
by statute. Otherwise it fears that
the House may some day have a
speaker wearing a yellow jacket and Il
peacock feather like Ii Hung Chang.

INTERNATIONAL WRITING
A Novel Scheme for Acquiring Foreign
Tongue


The Chicago Tribune attributes an
interesting idea to William r. Stead,
the English editor This is called
international hirtation." Primarily
the scheme is intended to promote cor
respondence between the school child
rem of all nations. He would have a
German school girl write faulty let
ter in English to an English school
boy, who in turn will send back an an
swer written in more or less faulty
German. In the same way French
and American pupils may correspond,
or any two pupils who speak and write
different languages. So far as he has
already gone Mr.. Stead has succeed
ed in getting more than 5000 school
children-English, French and Ger
man-busy in numbering each others
languages on paper. He works
through the school teachers. For in
stance, he finds school teacher in
England who has dozen pupils who
would like German correspondents,
and he puts him in communication
with German teacher who wants an
equal number of English correspond
ents for his children. "There is moth.
ing so likely to promote and cement
the friendliness of nations" says Mr..
Stead in his enthusiastic way, Gas

warm personal friends. My son, for
instance, went over and visited the
boy in Germany with whom he had
corresponded, and later the young
German returned the visit. In addi-
tion, there is no other way in which

and so easily learned. 1t makes it

ever realizing that they are studying
at all. The children write to each
other about postage stamps, botanical

We find that sex has little to do with
it. Boys would often rather write to
other boys and girls to other girls"
