Motion Through the Ether.

Physicists Lave concluded that the
earth in its motion does not drag the
ether along with it, and thus each
body on the earth's surface, in virtue
OF it's motion with the earth, is tray-
,ersed by stream of ether. The ques.
ton thus arises: Does light travel
through such body with the same
speed along the stream of ether as it
does against it, or across IT? The ex-.
periments Of Miclelson and Morley in
America lead to an affirmative answer
for air. Lord Rayleigh, in England,
has obtained the same answer as to
liquids and is cow engaged on re-
search in respect to the phenomena
relating to Solids ,s58
