THE MILKY WAY.
A System which Gives Us q Vague
Idea OF the Eternity of Space.

A System WhicI, Gives Us a Vague
Idea OF the Eternity OF Space.
The Milky Way, the graudest feature
Of the armament which bends above
US" the hazy path which so majestic
ally bands the whole fabric Of the
skies together, is now known to be
composed Of a grand aggregation Of at
least 1S.00O,000 suns. each as large us
or larger than that which makes vege-
table and animal life an earthly posi-
bility. One is apt when allowing the
mind to revert to the contemplation OF
these misty and indistinct astronomical
subjects to measure their magnitude
or attempt to measure it by making
terrestrial comparisons.
It is obvious, however, upon more
mature reflection that such compari-
sons are worse than ''odious" The bulk
Of our sun exceeds that Of the earth
100000 times. being 600 times great
er than that Of the bulk Of his whole
train Of planets taken collectively. This
being the case, what basis can we use
for calculating the magnitude of 49,
100000 suns. each, as have said be-
fore, probably larger than that which
gives Us heat and light?
The Infinite number Of suns which,
taken together, make up the Milky
Way are not set at uniform distance
from our earth or even from our sun.
In fact. they appear to work altogeth-
er Independently of either this mum
dane sphere or our glorious orb OF
day." The majority Of them are plant
ed at distance too remote to be even
imperfectly measured or understood.
Some of them are so near (?) that
light, which travels at the rate Of
$4,000 miles per second, would cross
the distance between us and them in
the period Of about an even ten years.
Others, however, are so remote that it
would take full thousand years for
their light to reach Us.

REMAINS OF MoNsTER BIRD.
Valuable Discovery sGade1n so1thern
Part Of Argentine Rer15lio-
Larger Than the Doeo.

Brief information of the discovery
in Patagonia, or rather, of the south
ern part of the Argentine Republic,
of part of the remains OF an extinct
bird that, in size, outrivals any Of the
forms known to science, either living
or extinct, has just reached the chief
ornithologist of the Smithsonian IN
stitution, who regards the discovery
as one of the first importance. The
details thus far received are to the
effect that scientific party expior-
ing along the eastern foothills Of the
Andes range unearthed from the
strata of the tertiary age the skull Of
what they at first took to be . gigsI-
tic bird of prey, but on subsequent
examination they unearthed other
parts that caused them to change
their first view and reach the concl1-
sion that the bird must have been .
water fowl. The size Of this extinct
bird, which the oiscoyererS named the
"phoraraohis," is, according TO tie
reports, something amszmg, tt having
been at least fourth larger than the
"dodo" of Madagascar, q bird now ex-
tinct, but which until the finding Of
this Patagonien monster held ArsS
place for size in the list Of birds. Hv-

A Curious State Of Affairs.

You must be very cautious how you
treat your neighbor in Isle Of Jersey,
for he can have you arrested on the
slightest prete1t and If he has q
grudge against you can bring about
such calamity by simply giving hc-
tional account Of your misconduct to
the nearest lawyer. The latter will de-
mand fine, and should you decline to
pay it he will cause you to be thrown
into prison to await trial. Then, even II
you are acquitted Oh the ground that
the charge is unfounded, you have alb
solutely no claim against your persecu-
tor, though you may have suffered a
couple Of months Imprisonment for
nothing.-London Ht-Bits.

Remember This, Boys.

Learn to be man Of your word.
One of the most disheartening OF
things is to be compelled to do buSi-
ness with a person whose promise is
not to be depended upon. There are
plenty Of people in this wide world
whose promise is as slender tic as a
spiders web. Let your given word be
as hempen cord. chain of wrought
steel that will bear the heaviest
strain. 1t will 60 far in making a
man of you, and a real man is the no.
blest work Of GOD. The man who
does not honorably meet his promises
is not only dishonest, but is a coward;
the man who dares not meet his obll-
cations in good faith can frame no
other excuse than that OF coWardlce.
Young man, have character OF your
own. DO not be lump Of moist put
ty nodded and shaped by the influence
and impression of those whom you
last met. Your reputation is made
by your conduct. Cultivate force, en-
ergy, self reliance and be a positive
quantity that can be calculated upon
at all times and at all places. Be a
man whose word is worth hundred
cents on dollar and your reputation
will be as good as gold.

A ROMANTIC CAREER.
SpeculatoT and Husband Of Duchess
EnG Up as a Marine,

lease from the Navy IA Order
TO Begin Life Over Again.

Edward L. Dvyer, once millionaire
mine owner, promoter and bold specu-
lator in wheat, who startled even Chi
cago ~ his daring, and who later mar
r!ed duchess worth millions Of dol
lars, sailed iato the Brooklyn navy
yard the other day marine en- the
United States transport Calgoa-
Dressed in his natty sailor suit, his
tace bronzeG by the Philippine sun,
his muscles hardened by work, Dwysr
booked little like a dashing speculstoc
and husband of duchess.
Dwyer has been in the service of the
United States since July 81, 1900, when
penn;!sss, disinherited by his aged
wife. tired of wandering, he went to
Harrisburg ard enlisted in the marine
corps. The term Of enlistmsnti is three
years, but Dwyer has influences at
work in the navy department., and
there is little doubt that his early dis
charge will be secured.
Dwyer first attracted attention IN
1886, then member Of the Chicago
board OF trade. by purchasing 100000
bushels of wheat for future delivery
without depositing margins. While in
New York in 1894. representing west
crn mining interests, be met the
Duchess de Castelluccia, whose hug
band had died only short while be-
fore. leaving her fortune estimated
at 100000. She was more than 90
years older than Dwyer. but he won
her. and the two were married at Roek
Ridge. Fla. January 90. 1895.
The duchess died soon after the we'd
ding, leaving the bulk Of her fortune
to her two children. Dwyer received
$4,000.
Dwyer then started on the road to
financial ruin through speculation,
and in May, 1890. he found himself pen-
niless. He fled petition in bankrupt
cy in New York, with liabilities OF
s252,o55 and no visible assets. But
Dwyer within year had<organized
company with capital Of $500. .ooo>
to develop silver mines IN Zacstecas.
Mexico. Apparently this scheme wes
not successful, and year later-he was
aqain penniless. It was then that he
enlisted and was assigned to service
in the Philippines.
While Dwyer was in the Philippines
he looked about him for favorable IN
vessments and he thinks enterprise
there will open the way to fortune. Il
is said that the broEzed marine viii go

TABLE CLIMBS WALLS.
TWO Cha rlcston Young Ladies Makes
Furniture Cut Queer Capers.

Furniture Cut Queer Capers.
The Charleston Post says there are
! curious manifestations Of SpiritualiSm
at night at a house on Queen street in
! that city through the medium Of two
young ladies who are sisters, both
claiming t. be spiritualists. The
young ladies dre having bushels of fun,
but their parents and friends are
much disturbed.
About two weeks ago the young
ladies in question discoverd their
power as spiritualists and ever since
then there have been nightly seances
in their loom after they retire at
night. The manifestation are kept
UP nightly from about 10 o'clock until
l p. m.
One night little more than two
weeks ago after the young ladies had
retired for the night curious sounds
were heard in the room, tappings at
the head Of the bed and strange sounds
Of scraping on the floor. The young
ladies were alarmed, but they manag
ed to pass through the night without
alarming their parents. The next
morning at the breakfast table the
! happenings were related and the mem
bers of the family laughed over the
matter, telling the young ladies that
they were only dreaming.
The following night, however, after
the ladies had gone to bed, the tap
ping on the bed and the scrapings on
the floor were heard. A shoe belong
ing to one Of the ladies was seen to
fly across the room as though it was
possessed of wings. The basin on the
washboard left it's place, settled on
the floor. and finally turned itself up
side down. The occupants Of the
room were more alarmed than ever
before and they hastily called in their
parents to witness the strange hap
penings. When the parents Of the
young ladies saw what was really TAX
ing place they became much disturb
ed, for they we're at loss to explain

queer and there was little sleep in the
household that night.
The next day the matter was men
toned to some friends and they told
the young ladies that they were spir-
itualists, which explanation was ac-
cepted and now the ladies are having
lots of fun. Several times they have
invited their friends to witness the
capers that are cut in their room at
night after they have retired. The
parents OF the young women are very
much alarmed over the matter, as
they do not believe in spiritualism.
1t is said that the spirits will obey
any command of the ladies. Several
nights ago table was made to climb
the wall of their room.

Whitman Dies Suddenly.

4 dispatch from Union to The State
says: &c. Walt Whitman is dead. He
passed away on Sunday night after an
illness OF only three days. His demise
was totally unexpected, because but
few knew of his sickness. He is the
man who for several years past has
sought gubernatOrial honors in this
State. He was appointed to fill out
the unexpired term of member Of
the legislature several years ago, this
being the only Office he ever held. He
was once minister and was well-to-
do. but spent his means in politics.
He has resided here for the last four
years and ran small store on Main
street near the court house.
