The Future of the Globe.

1t was believed by Lyell, the geolo-
sist, and other followers of Hutton,
that the earth was a kind of "perpet-
ual motion machine, that is to say
would go on forever as it is. and has
been, Illuminated by the sun. and a
habitation for plants and animals, race
upon race: but Lord Kelvin showed.
in his doctrine of the Dissipation of
Energy that the solar system was
running down like a clock, and that
within a finite period of cime past
the earth must have been, and within
a finite period of time to come must
again be- unfit for the habitation of
man as at present constituted unless
operations have been, and are to be,
performed which are impossible under
the laws governing the known opera
tons going on at present in the mate
rial world"

House That Cost $9.12

st. Paul was q tentmaker, and. on
one occasion at least, during hard
times, when the faithful did not raise
enough salary to support him, he
earned his own living for three years
putting up habitations for other peo-
pie to live in.
The west boasts OF one bishop who,
although he may not be tentmaker
or carpenter by trade, has actually
built his own house. This is Rt. Rev.
A. L. Williams of Omaha, formerly a
railroad man and later priest of the
Episcopal church in Colorado.
For seven years a little coterie of
Chicago clergymen of the Episcopal
faith and persuasion has been passing
the hot months Of the year at north
ern resort. Five years ago they formed
themselves into a club and squat
ted" upon an unoccupied island in the
northern part of lake Superior. which
they named Rowe island, after the
bishop of Alaska, who also came from
Chicago.
Other members Of the club who have
donned the Episcopal purple are Bish-

coated foes. If this be true, his dust
must long since have been scattered
to the winds of heaven. for business
structures, including skyscrapers, now
cover all that area.
1t is no credit to the American peo-
pie that they have done so little to
honor the memory of Nathan Hale. In
deed, as a nation. they have done alb
soiutefy nothing. AS far back as 1885
a senator from Connecticut made a
plea from the floor of the senate at
Washington for the erection of a mon
ument to Nathan Hale, but his words
fell upon deaf ears. His own state OF
Connecticut has reared no shaft nor
built other memorial. For a great
many years a granite monument in the
village cemetery at Coventry, Conn,
was the only one in the country, the
only memorial of any description.
There is now the statue in City Hall
Park. New York, before referred to,
and the old schoolhouse in East Had
dam, Conn, in which he taught, pre-
served through the patriotism of Capt.
Richard Henry Green of New York,
whose grandfather was one of HaIe's
pupils There is also an excellent
Giuseppe Moretti well-known New
York sculptor, which it is thought may
be purchased either by the Sons or
Daughters of the Revolution snd be
erected in Washington. Both the Mac
Monnies and the Moretti statues rep
resent Hale as bound. Mr.. Partridge
is the first sculptor to model statue
of the hero with hands free.
The cost of the Yale statue of Ma
than Hale, including pedestal, is to be
about $4,000, perhaps $4,000, when
the statue is in place on the historic
green But a few thousand dollars re-
mains to be raised. Mr.. Peter Flint,
80, in making an appeal for further
subscriptions, says: The true spirit
of Yale everywhere will rejoice in the
coming of this statue, for it will be an
inspiration to the youth of America
and show how Yale rewards unselfish
devotion to country and principle

New Story of Lincoln.

Two men were looking over some
steel engravings in an uptown shop
the other day with view to purchase.
A portrait of Lincoln suggested to one
of them this story of Honest Abe
which the narrator says he had from
his father:
Lincoln and his cabinet We're in ses-
sion, but as he had anticipated no dis
cussions of importance. the president
left word that he would receive cards.
AS he supposed, the meeting was Who'll
ly social.
While they were gathered about the
TIA bic a servant brought in two cards
and Lincoln commanded that the call
ers be admitted. When they appeared

the other one much understood. After
a moments chat they retired.
There is a remarkable instance Of
the providence of the Creator" re-
marked Lincoln, impressively, as he
turned again to his ministers. There
are two men. God has given one man
extraordinary long legs and the other
extraordinary short legs, yet He made
the legs of each of those men so the.
they just exactly reach the ground!'-

AduIteratfon of Foods.

Food adulteration and food frauds

chemists at the department of agri
culture, are a national scandal. Some
of the states have done what they can
to correct the abuses of which every
body has a right to complain, but the
strong hand of the national govern
ment must be laid on the offenders.

YALE TO HAVE A STATUE
OF NATHAN HALE

upon his shoulders and wept for joy.
1t has been practically decided that
the Nathan Hale statue shall be erect
ed upon the famous Yale Green, not
far from the spot where as a student
athlete, Hale made the prodigious leap,
the marks of which were for many
years preserved and pointed out. Hale
entered Yale in ITO. 1t is said that
he passed the examinations with more
than average credit, eXcelling particu
larly in reading, writing and arithme-
tic and that he had an excellent ac-
quaintance with Sallust, Cicero and
the Greek Testament His career at
college was distinguished by good
scholarship and good behavior. He
was great favorite with his class and
with his professors, and made lasting
friendships readily.
The story of Nathan Hale's heroic
service to Gen. Washington, in enter
ing the British camp on Long Island
to obtain information concerning the
enemy's strength and movements
which could not be had in any other
way, of his capture after betrayal by
a traitor, and of his subsequent execu
ton by order of Gen. Howe. are too

The place of his execution is believed
to have been the Rutgers orchard, on

was an old burial ground just north of

The Origin of the AquiIine Nose.

DR.. Louis Robinson has developed
an ingenious hypothesis to account
for the evolution of the aquiline nose
which, considering the organ entirely
from it's relation to the voice. he re-
CARDS as its highest type. He contends
that while primitive man was strug-
Cling towards civilization that by
voice he could alone exercise influence
and that as a consequence a sonorous

the aspiring and ambitious. who, by
reason of this superiority in the strug-

tain themselves and eventually pro-
duce an aquiline-nosed race. In sup.

the North American Indians, the
Maoris and the Zulus as being large
nosed, warlike and oratorical people.

picture of an heroic character, than
whom he believes no other developed
by the revolutionary war edualed,
measured by the purest, Hottest ideal,
and no other, in his opinion, is so
sublimeiy beautiful and so worthy of
the love and admiration of the Amer
lean people. There is no authentic
portrait of Nathan Hale extant, and
the facial features and head which Mr..
Partridge has put into enduring bronze
are com binatiOn of those of the VEN
cradle Dr. Edward Everett Hale, who
IS grand-nephew of the revolution
airy hero, and of a young man who, by
mere chance, came to the sculptor's
studio one day, and who, so Mr.. Part
ridge declares, Games up to his ideal
of Nathan Hale, and is imbued with
the same high sense of honor and duty
which characterized the latter, and
enabled him to face death on the scat
fold withou: finching, and with those
immortal words on his lips: Il only
regret that / have but one life to lose
for my country"
This young man is described by Mr..
Partridge as a Socialist, in the higher,
Christian sense of the term. His home
is in Pittsburg, IA. he had reaa NH.

was so impressed by some portions of
the work that he wished to become ac-
uuainted with the author. His visit to
New York was for the purpose of graf

in him the sculptor had found what he
had long sought in vafn-a second Ma

a man filled with the ambitions of
Hale. imbued with the same humanl-
tartan spirit, moved by the same no

had set up. And TO add to the sculp-
tors joy, the young Socialist from
Pittsburg was the counterpart Of Hale
in a physical sunse. The latter. ac-
cording to the best authority, WAS
about 5 feet 10 inches in height. Ills
