A FASCINATING PROBLEM.
IS THERE A SWIFT CURRENT OF ETHER
FLOWING THROUGH THE EARTH?

When scientific people talk about ether, they
DO not refer TO the atmosphere 20 volatile nuld
possessing antiseptic properties They alude 10 an
exceedingly thin medium supposed to MI all inter
stellar space and to perm cate what is commonly
known matter. The existence Of such thing
has been assumed in order 10 account for The
phenomena Of light Light is regarded a vihra-
ton OF the ether. the different cOlors being attrlo-
uted 10 waves Of dtssimilar length. Hertz waves,
which are believed TO be concerned in wireless
telegraphy. very much longer than light waves,
but they travel at the same speed.
Since the earth in its journey around the sun
Hies ar the rate of nineteen miles a second, this
question suggests itself: Does the ether accom-
pany it remain stationary? In the former case
the ether in room like a scientific laboratory
would stay still In the latter case it would flow
through II with tremendous velocity. Ether Is
called 'fmponderable.' because it apparently has
no weight, and offers no resistance to the move
ments of the planets to such light. gauzy
objects as comets and nebula But if there is any
such thing all, either il does it does not
AS Ions ago 1887 two American physicists
Nicholson and Morley-devised a test which it was
hoped might settle this question. They employed
for that purpose certain optical apparatus, which
was first placed that light rays would pass
through it in the direction of the earths movement
and then they fixed it in position right angles
thereto. They carefully watched for any dner-
ence in the effects upon the rays. but discovered
none. Although they reached positive conclu-
TO signify that the ether moves with the earth
New tests, by new methods, were reported oy
Lord Rayleigh at the last meeting of the Briti5h
Association for the Advancement of Science; The
principle on which the experiment was conducted
cannot be explained in simple language but the
apparatus itself consisted of a liquid column CWater
or carbon bisulphide). thirty inches long, placed

IN the behavior of the light. As yet Lord Ray
leigh hesitates TO say that the experiment proves
anything, because there may have been some IN
detected fault in the apparatus. Apparently :,
though. the lack of result means the same as did
Morley and MiChelson's failure.
Several physicists have asserted that If the ether
IS stationary in space, and current Of II flows

own movement, then all material objects should
change their shape imperceptibly when turned a

noon. Lord Rayleigh referred to this the other
day. and said that it would be impossible to prove
the doctrine, perhaps. but the latter had a basis
of sense.

A Dakota School Teachers
Mad Work.

Grand Forks, n. D., Oct. TO-
In n quarrel between Il school teach
err and the board of trustees ut Al
tona, a little station on the Great
Northern. seven miles north Of the
Canadian line, six persons were
shot, and the teacher, Henry |.
Towes, committed suicide. Five
of the wounded are in Il dangerous
condition. The school is near the
little village in the thickly settled
part of the valley, and has IA popu-
lation of only few hundred. The
settlers are all Menuonites, who
have lived in the vicinity for years.
The school has been in charge of Il
Mennonite teacher named Henry |.
Towes. There has been some dis
satisfaction with his management
of the school, and this led to bad
feeling in the community.
Three members of the board Of
trustees met ut the school house
in the school hours to talk the
trouble over with the teacher. Hot
words were exchanged, and sud
denly Towes drew his revolver and
shot down the three trustees. He
then rushed into the school house
where he shot Keller's daughters,
aged 8 and 10 years thru the body
They have small chance for recOv-
cry. The IL year-old daughter of
Rempt was then attacked, and the
bullet struck her in the arm, break
ing the bone. Then the teacher
shot and killed himself.
