. u ~ speaking Oh dulndlS Oh Amerl-
ca, the theory of NJ. de Button,
the Able Raynal and others,
presented itself to considera tion,"
wrote Tn omas Jefferson. "They have
supposed that there is something in
Il soil, climate and other circum-
Stances in America, which occasions
animal nature to degenerate, not eX-
Dting even man, native or adaptive,
lnysical or moral. This theory, so un-
founded, and degrading to onethird of
TIE globe, was called to the bar of fact
and reason"
That such a theory ever was adj
vanced by civilized and educated per-
6 ons was news to the writer, but it is
contained in an old publication which
was recently hand ed to the correspond
ent by a deliver in library lore, one who
delights in studies of minute details of
history. The pamphlet is worn and
somewhat faded, manifesting anti
guilty, and it contains Jefferson's let
ter dated Philadelphia, December 81,
1897, with great deal of interesting
and valua bic matter upon an historical
topic.
In the years 1871 and 1882 Jefferson
compiled the "Notes on Virginia, for
the information of the secretary of the
legation of France to this country. A
few copies were published in Paris in
the year 1874 and given to particular
friends. In the letter quoted Jefferson
says: "Combating in these Notes the
contumilous theory of certain Euro
pean writer's, whose celebrity gave cur
rency and weight to their opinions,
that our country, from the combined
effects of 4oil and climate, degen-
Grated animal nature in the general,
and particularly the moral faculties
of man, / considered the speech of
Logap as an apt proof of the contrary,
and used it as such; and I copied. YER
batim, the narrative had taken down
in 1774, and the speech as it had been
given us in better translation by
Lord Dunmore"
1t seems that the genuineness and
authenticity of a since celebrated
speech by Logan, the bereaved Indian,
which Mr.. Jefferson had published
with the purpose thus disclosed, had
been questioned. The speech has been
published in school books for more
than century; and here is Jeffer-
sons account of its origin: "As soon as
found that the story of Logan could
be doubted, l determined to inquire
into it as accurately as the testimony
remaining, after a lapse of 20 odd
years, would permit, and that the re-
suit should be made known either in
the first new edition which should be
printed of the Notes on Virginia. or
by publishing an appendix.
81 had only concurred with thou
sands and thousands of others in be-
Heving transaction on authority
which merited respect. The story of
Logan is only repeated in the Notes

know, Doth from observation and from
theory. The sharpness with which q
star disappears when the moon passes
before it, the intense blackness of al
shadows on the lunar surface, the
crispness of the horns of the crescent
moon, the absolute lack of any spec.
troscopic evidence for a lunar atmos,
phere during an eclipse of the sun
an observat ion which was repeated I'm,
der the most favora BILE circums tances
by the French astronomers in Egypt
during the eclipse of November II last
are quite sufficient to rule an appre.
cable lunar atmosphere out OF
court.
But the theoretical consideration
are vet more conclusive. The firsi
point osnote is that a lunar atmos
phere. if it existed, would be distribut
ed in quite different fashion from the
atmosphere of the earth. Here we
find that if we climb mountain som;
three and a half miles high-a little
higher than Mont Blanc, that is to say
we should have passed through one
half of the atmosphere; the barometer
would record for us pressure but one,
half what it had done at sea level
Were is possible to ascend to twice tina
height, to seven miles, the pressure
would be reduced to cne-fourth; and al
ten and a half miles, to one-eighth
Not so with the moons atmosphere.
Whatever its density on the surface
we should have to ascend nearly &c
miles before that density was reduced
to one-half, and to AZ miles before il
was quartered. This difference OF
distribution, if we take account of il
atone, would have very striking eff.
feet. For, if the atmosphere density
at the moons surface were no greater
than that at 40 miles above the earth's
surface, at so miles above the two plan
cts the moon would have the denser at.
mosphere, and for all heights above
that. The total amount of such a lunar
atmosphere would nearly correspond
to that above distance of 30 miles
from the earth, though it's distribution
would be very different for it's density
would be much more nearly uniform
Such an atmosphere could not fail to
give evidence of its presence in twi
light effects, and in softening the ex
IRENE hardness and blackness of luna
shadows: but it would be quite incap
able of carrying any appreciate
amount of water vapor, or of sustain
ing any cloud that could possibly make
its presence felt across the 100000
| miles which separates us from the
moon.

a Chronic GrumbIer.

To fke large number of stories Of the
"meanest man" which are frequently re-
lated, one should be added of certain
Frenchman, famous for his habit of grumb-
ling at everything and on every occasion.
He was attacked by inf1ammatory rheu-
matism, and was carefully nursed by his
wife, who was very devoted to him, in spite
of his fault-6nding disposition. His suf.
fering caused her to burst into tears some
times as she sat at his bedside
One day a friend of the invalid's came
in and asked him how he was getting on.
Badly, badlyi" he exclaimed; "and it's
all my wife's fault"

prise.
Yes. The doctor told me that humidity
was bad for me, and there that woman sits

FIVE MINUTES WITH TIE BIG
NEWS OF THE WORLD.
President Failed to End Strike.

In response to an invitation from Presl-
dent Roosevelt, Messrs. Baer, Truesdaie,
Thomas, Fowler, Wilcox and Msrkle,
representing the anthracite coal mine
operators, and Messrs. Jonn N ml.cnell' '
president OF the United Mine workers,
John Fahey, T. ID. Nichols and Thomas
Duffy, district presidents of the Nine
Workers. met the president and Attorney
General Knox, Commissioner OF LABOR
Wright and Private Secretary Cortelyou
at the temporary White House last Friday;
The object OF the conference was 10 emo
the coal strike. The president reau .
statement impressing on those present the
necessity of an early resumption OF coal
mining. in view of the impending coal
famine, and urging the parties to harmon
ize their differences on some OASIS. Inc
president disclaimed any legal authority
TO interfere but believed that his duty re-
uuired him to use whatever influence ne
could "to end a situation which has be-
come literally intolerable.p When he had
finished, President Mitchell, in behalf oil
the miners, offered to submit the dlfer-
ences TO the arbitration OF President
Roosevelt and a board to be named by
him. the miners to resume work at once,
pending the settlement. BY suggestion
OF the president, a recess was then taken
to afford the parties time Tor cohslaera-
tiOn. On their return, each OF the mine
owners read a lengthy statement OF their
side Of the controversy, casting the blame
ON Mitchell and the strikers and holding
them responsible for the violence and
intimidation which, they alleged, are
keeping miners who wish to return 70
work from doing so. They maintained
that il adequate protection were given,
the mines would soon be operated 70 their
fun capacity and the trouble would be
over. They refused to treat with mitchell
or his union, and declined his oner oi
arbitration. The operators made a coun-
ter proposition that if the men would re-
turn to work they might submit their m
dividual grievances TO the Judges OF ri lne
pennsylvania courts for arbitration. Thls
was rejected by Mitchell. The latter re-
piled, denying the responsibility OIL ms
union for the disturbances that have oc-
CURED. and saying that reports have been
gross exaggerations. The conference was
| fruitless in actual results. II Is under
stood that President Roosevelt is stlll AT
work quietly to relieve the situation.
