1t is said that the habit OF taking snuff
is increasing, particularly among the wom-
en- of New England. In 1899, $4,000, 600
pounds were manufactured and in 1900,
100000. The average for several year,
previous had been 100000. This in
crease in the habit only illustrates the old
law of action and reaction. The women
of New England have reached state of
absolute perfection, and If the pendulum
begins to swing in the other direction no
one should be surprised.

1t seems probable that New England

Buffalo Pan-American exposition, although
no great haste is being made. Represen-

states met in Boston Saturday and voted
to construct a building to cost $4,000,
$4,000 to be contributed by each state.
Vermont's share will be raised by private
subscription. The legislature has been
roundly scored by some for not appropri.

DELEGATE ELECTED

At a Special Meeting at the Zion Luth-
eran Church-Examinatio of Confir-
nation Glass Last Evening.
After the morning service yesterday
at the Zion German Lutheran church.
corner Davenport avenue. and Ward
street, a special meeting was held to
consider the matter of sending dele
gate to the conference of the eastern
district of the Missouri Synod, to be
held inc Brooklyn from the first to the
seventh of May inclusive. President
Conrad Hofacker acted as chairman of
the meeting. A resolution was adopted
to send q delegate with the pastor of
the church, Rev. Frederick Ottmann,
and the teacher Of the parochial school
connected with the churchS Max Dress
Ter. After several ballots Frederick l..
Neebe was elected delegate, and Con-
stantin Simon alternate. The confer
ence Is one Of the largest of the Mis-
souri, Synod, the growth in membership
in the east having been phenomenal in
in the last ten years.
There was a good attendance at the
morning service yesterday. Rev Mr..
Ottmann preached a forcible sermon on
the text of the day. At the evening
service Rev. Mr.. Ottmann examined
the children who are to be confirmed at
the morning service next Sunday, Palm
Sunday. There was attendance of the
parents and friends present.

skilful astronomers, provided with the
very largest and most perfect tele-
scopes, and situated on, the loftiest
mountains on which observatories have
been placed, were to be studying the
surface of Mars, they might, grant,
perceive the waving of the flag, and
might possibly be able to receive GER
tain indications therefrom
Let us suppose that the signalling
power of wireless telegraphy had been
advanced to such perfection that it
was possible to transmit signal across
distance of eight thousand mies-that
is to say, across distance equal to the
diameter of the earth. I think it will be
admitted that this is a very liberal sup
position. The moon is, however at
distance OF about thirty times the
earth's diameter, and therefore, even
supposing that Marconis waves could
be sent across the earths diameter, vet
to be appreciable at the distance of the
moon, which is thirty times greater the
intensity of those waves would have to
be not merely thirty times, but thirty
times thirty-that is, the efficiency must
be nine hundred times as great as I
have supposed. In other words, even If
the whole earth were brought within
the domain of wireless biography, the |
system would still have to be improved |
nine hundred times as much again be- |
fore the moon could also be brought |
within the sphere of influence. And

now let us apply this reasoning tn.
Mars have shown that at Its very
closest approach Mars must still be-
some thirty-f1ve million miles from our
earth-that is to say, even under ths
most favorable circumstances, the rud-
dy planet Is at a distance from us
which must be more than four thou-
sand times as great as the 'earths di-
ameter. Even if wireless telegraphy att
tanned the utmost perfection that cup
pose even its most sanguine advocates
could possibly dream Of, yet the eff
cheney of the apparatus would have to
be increased thousandfold, and then
thousandfold again, and finally null
tiplied by another sixteen, before an APP
preciable signal could be transmitted
to Mars.-London Globe.

ANNUAL SUNDAY SCHOOL SER
VICE.
Held at the Summerfield M. e. Church
Last Evening.

Held at the Summerf1eld M. e. Church
Last Evening.
There was a very large congregation
at the Summerfield M. e. church last
evening, the occasion being the annual
missionary Sunday school service. The
| preacher of the evening was the Rev
Horace A. Sibley, of the China Inland
mission, who told those present Of his
experiences in China and of the ways of
the people in that country. Rev. Mr..
Sibley had a number of curios that are
used there and he used them as text.
He told of the life and customs Of the
Chinese from them and at the conclu-
sion of the service those who wanted to
were allowed to examine the curious
things. Mr.. Sibleys location while in
China Is in Lao-ho Kio, Hupley, which
is one of the most interesting parts of
the country. He returned about year
ago to this country on sick leave and
il it had not been for that he would
have been in the heart of the Boxer up
risings. He said last night that a num-
Der of people with whom he worked
while over there, were captured by the
Boxers and in some cases they were
killed. His talk all through was a very
interesting one.
The pastor of the church, Rev. Will
liam A. Burgwin, entertained Mr. Sib-
ley while he was here. Rev. Mr.. Burg
win has had a flattering invitation to
take the passionate of the Eighteenth
street NJ E. church in Brooklyn and it
is expected that after the conference to
be held in Brooklyn on April 10 he will
remove to that city. Mr.. Burgwin has
been pastor of the Summerfield church
for the last three years and has done
great deal to build the church to its
present condition. It Is expected that
the Rev. Burdette B. Brown now of
Middlefield, will be the next pastor of
the Summerfield church. The annual
conference will be held at the Hanson
M. E. church in Brooklyn and the pre-
siding bishop will be Bishop Fitzgerald.
The choir of the Summerfield church
is diligently preparing for the Easter
music. They will sing Steiner's Cru
cifxion" and the sermon to be preached
at the evening service will be from the
the lines Of the cantata.

SIGNALLING TO MARS.
What Sir Robert Ball Thinks of the
Possibility.

What Sir Robert Ball Thinks of the
Possibility.
In the Pail Mall Magazine" Sir Rob
ert Ball sprays come cold facts on the
wild theories about the possibility Of
signalling to Mars. Even under the
very most favorable circumstances
which can, in fact, never be quite rea-
liked, the distance between the earth
and Mars cannot be under $4,000, 900
miles. 1t may, indeed, be said that
thirty-five million miles Is nearly the
lowest value to which the distance can
decline under the present condition of
the orbits. and this can only occur when
the opposition takes place close to Au-
gust 26. We may mention that when
the first satellite OF Mars was diecov-
cred by Professor Hall, on August II,
1877 the distance from the planet to the
earth was thirty-six million miles,
which was still a million miles over the
lowest distance to which 1t could sink
with the concurrence of the best condi-
tons The question then arises as to
the kind OF signal which could be trans
mitted across a distance of thirty-five
million miles.
A building as big as st. Paul's cathe-
dral on our satellite would about repre-
sent the size Of the smallest visible OBJ
ject on the moon; we therefore infer
that a building would have to be one
hundred and fifty times as long and one
hundred and fifty times as broad as st.
Pauls, to be dlscernibe as the smallest
point on Mars. Assuming that there
were inha bitants on Mars who were de-
sirous of making signals to the earth
by the waving of flag, that flag would
hardly be distinct enough for such
purpose unless it were at least ten
times as long as the smallest visible
point, and had breadth in proportion.
We are thus led to the conclusion that
a flag, say, some three hundred miles
long and two hundred miles broad, or
perhaps about as large as Ireland,
would be necessary for the purpose. If |
we could imagine a flag Of these colos- |
sal dimensions on flagpole say five |
hundred miles long, and if the Mar
tians awaited themselves Of the next IA
vorable opposition, say in 1909, to make
for waving this colossal
lag to and fro, and if some Of our most

The apartments can be thrown together for the receptions and there are two other rooms that may be engaged for very large assemblies making suite of four. With the club furnishings, the rooms will be very attractive. A little corner has already been selected for the tea table, and the apartments have un- dergone repairs, so that only a few days will be required to get things settled The president of the club will return from Europe early in October, and the new club quarters will be in readiness for the first club meeting after her re- turn.
