Star Gazing Seems to be Favorable to:
Prolonging of Existence.
According to NJ Camille Flam-
marion, the celebrated astronomer,
star gazing would appear to be produc-
tive Of longevity. At any rate, he has
been laying stress, at a meeting Of the
French Astronomical society, on the
! marvellous. ages attained by members
OF the association. M. Francois Michau
orinstance was 10 about the time Of.
2 Waterloo. Just before that great. bat
tie, in June, 1916, and while Napoleon
was still in Paris,sM. Michau had, We
are told, placed his telescope near, the
8 Pont Royal, where it was knocked over
by the excited crowd, who carried the
emperor on their shoulders to the.
Tulleries after he had escaped from.
Elba, This N. Michau is the doyen Of
81 the French Astronomical society, and
!. ne still relates that, afte, having tenn :
porarlly abandoned his telescope and
y MS sky-searching operations, he fol-
lowed he people who were rushing to

Literal Coin Hunting,

One of the most curious of the MANY
curious trades Of Paris is that of the
coin hunter. Many coins must, Of
course, be dropped! by inadvertence
each day in. big city like Paris, and
the business of the "filonne--,, or coin
hunter, is to find as many of them as
he can. Sometimes, according to the
confession OF one Of them, these poor
creatures pick up. as much as 5 francs
day, but their average takings

. Norway's Administrative Methods,

4 For administrative purposes Norway
is divided into eighteen countries, or
provinces, which coincide with the do
cese of the church, and there is a very
close relation between the ecclesias-
tical and the civil authorities The
chief magistrate in each Of the coun-
tries, nominated by the king, is known
as a perfect. His duties are similar to
those, Of the. French projects, although
the theory Of home rule and self-gov-
eminent is carried into each county
and each municipality and parish,
where every magistrate is response
BILE to a; council elected by the people
from the laws for the ma gistrate to ad-
minister. There are few countries in
which the theory of self government
is carried to such an extent as in Nor
way. The sovereignty of the people is
absolute, and their rights and Jealous

StHLEY INQUIRY ADJOURNS
Last Public Session Of Court Was Held
Yesterday

Washington, Nov. S-After slttings
Covering 40 days, and with a record,
(which when completed will cover
about 1000 pages, the Schley court
Of inquiry yesterday at 3.45 p. m. ad-
journed its last public session. To
Captain $. c. Lemly, the judge advo-
cate had been assigned the duty Of
making the closing address in the
case, and soon after he had closed
his speech Admiral Dewey, bringing
his gavel down upon the big fat table,
said "There being no further busi-
ness before the court It is adjourned. "
There was only one session during
the day. Il began at o'clock. and
the entire time was devoted to Cap
tain Lemlys address. lie read his
speech in clear and distinct tones, and
was given careful attention The
speech in the main was an analysis OF
the testimony, but occasionally a con
clusion was drawn, and frequently
there were criticisms Of the course
pursued by Admiral (then Commo-
dore) Schley.
Captain Lemly used no formality in
beginning his address, but rising
quietly from his seat opposite the
president OF the tribunal, began to
read. lie said at the outset that his
plan contemplated first a response to
criticisms of Admiral Schley's coun-
sell and then a presentation of the
subject in hand on an Independent
basis. He requested to be corrected
If he should make any errors of fact
After adjournment the members Of
the court, Admiral Schley and counsel
fingered for a time about the hall in
which they recently have spent so
much of their time. and there were
many affectionate words Of farewell
spoken Admiral Schley, as usual,
was called upon to receive the greet
ings of a number of admirers, and a
hundred or more people waited at the
door Of the building to bid him adieu.
