bllity for organic life. Here. too. am not
aware that the whole facts have been sum-
ciently considered. yet there are fscu
that indicate our position In this respect
to be as central and unique as that OF the
sun in the stellar universe
1t In not possible 70 follow DR. Wallaces
cogent arguments In detail on the question
Of the adaptabillty Of other planets for the
development Of organic life and Of the
higher forms OF Intellectual beings
Writer'S on this subject, he says, have
usually been content to show that certain
planets may possibly he now In condition

the earth, but they never have considered
the precedent question; Could such Ire

these planetst This is the real cruz OF
the problem, and DR.. Wallace believes
that full consideration Of the required
conditions will satisfy US that no other
planet oan fulfil them.
DR.. Wallace observes that matertalists
will object that the want OF all proportion
between the means and the end condemns
the theory that the universe was created
for the production and development OF
man, but he asks II there Ia any such want
Of proportion. Given infinite space and
infinite time, there can he no such thing

that Il was NO by the fact that II has been

almost infinite time; but on the other hand,
those thinkers may be right who, holding
that tho universe is a manifestation OF mind
and that the orderly development OF living
souls supplies an adequate reason why
such a universe should have been called
into existence, believe that we ourselves

would occur, tonight, is not known,
but active preparations in anticipation
of something were in full progress.
1t was expected that Fort Mckinley
would bear the brunt of the attack, to-
night, as it is supposed the enemy de-
sires to force that entrance to the har-
Dor ii possible. Levett and Preble will
support the defence, though 1t is con-
sidered likely there will be diversion
off the shores of Cushing island to
draw the fire Of Fort Levett away from
the main attack of the squadron.
An evening paper says: 1.-THE the
DRY of the navy that it has countermined
the harbor falls to the ground in view
of the manner in which the torpedo
boat troops entered. The honors stand
about like this: The battleships tenn
porarially silenced the lower forts and
forced an entrance to the harbor: the
army drove off all landing parties, cap
tured one ship and destroyed two 9TH
ers. Thus the army leads.
THE searchlight question is another
one. The navy claims the system is
imperfect. On the other hand the army
claims to have repulsed one boat at
tack, to have destroyed a torpedo boat
and captured an armed tug by the aid
of the lights"
