What is the Sun Made orr

1t is generally agreed that the main body
of the sun-the nucleus within the photo
sphere-must be purely gaseous. This seems
to be an unavoidable conclusion from the
suns low mean density and its tremendous
internal temperature. which must almost
certainly be far higher than that of its
outer surface: SO high that even the enor-
nous force of solar gravity is able to COM
press the vapors to a density only one and
four-tenths that Of water, although among
the constituent elements are many OF the
metals Qron being the most conspicuous),
which in the solid or liquid state are from
three to eight times as dense. The reader
must not imagine, however, that this gas
eous nucleus Is like air other gases as
we encounter them upon the earth. Denser
than water, and strongly viscous from the
heat, 1t more resembles a globe of tar ex.
cept near the outside. There the vapors re-
lieved from pressure are free to expand,
and cool both by the expansion and by
radiating heat TO outer space. I'm a region
OF powerful currents, ascending, descending

The philosophers of luminous surface IL
generally believed to be what 1t looks like
sheet of clouds enveloping the nucleus,
and consisting of minute drops and crystals
formed from those vapors which condense
at the highest temperatures. These clouds

permanent gases like hydrogen and helIum

Americans a Nomad Race.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
How readily Americans move" is shown
by the fact that hardly two-thirds Of tho
representatives and only about half the sem
ators in Congress were born in the states
which they now serve. No member OF either

Dakotas, Washington or Wyoming is ma

Cannon of Illinois was born in North Caro-

sylvania is represented chiefly by native
Pennsylvanians, but New York, among
the old state. shows an opposite tendency.
In the earlier history of the country men
often become prominent in the politics of
several states in turn. James Shields whose
figure stands In statuary hall as the gift
of Illinois, served three states in the United
States Senate. Sunset" Cox represented
Ohio in Congress and afterward New York.
George w. Jones held important Offices in
Missouri, Wisconsin, Iowa and Northwest
Territory, Senator Elkins of West Virginia
was at one time the territorial delegate
from New Mexico. The rivalry of New
Han pshire and Massachusetts in claiming

Hunting Wild Cattle.

FROM the London Mail
Such a hunt as would have delighted the
heart of Fenimore Coopers doughtiest hero
has Just concluded within three miles OF
the center OF Belfast city, herd of wild
cattle being exterminated on the slopes of
Cave Hill, which frowns majestically over
belfast Lough. Some years ago Mr.. Stat
fofd Mclean, a farmer, put some polled
cattle on the hill and young bull reverted
TO saVagery and induced some members of
the herd to follow his lead
IN the course of time they multiplied and
the younger members were wilder than the
ora. lhey broke hedges and fences, and
iorased anywhere and everywhere.
MI. Mclean was held responsible for their
oepredatlons Claim followed claim for
fences broken and hayricks demolished

horses were exhausted. and it was neces-
sary to take a long rests Meanwhile, the
cold was increasing day by day, and haste
was necessary if we were to reach our
destination before the closing Of the river.
Therefore, l left three Yakut with the
horses and the goods and prepared to de-
scend the river on raft with the rest OF
my party, hoping thus to reach camp of
the Yukaghir, which is located on the
course of the Korkodon.
1t took us one day to build a strong
raft. and then we began the descent of the
river, made dangerous by numerous rapids
by jams of driftwOod. Our guides had in
timated that we could make the descent in
two days, but instead we spent nine days
on the raft.
Provisions Low.
ut was my desire to leave ample provi-
sions with the three Yakut who staid with
the horses, and for this reason / reduced
our own allowance to the very lowest limit
Thus 1t happened that three days rations
had to last us through the nine days which
we spent on the raft. For the last six days
we had to be satisfied with forty-fve
pounds of flour or an allowance of two
cups Il day for every person, and little
tea without sugar.
I'VE spent four days among the Yuka ghr
of the korkodon. and after finishing our
work and purchasing a supply of fish we
continued our journey to Verhne-K olymsk
in a boat. down the korkodon and the
kolyma. The journey took seven days. In
the night following the seventh day the
river froze up while we were still forty
miles from our goal. We left the boat
and after a tramp of two days reached
Verkhne- Kolymsk on October o. 1901"

Water Lily Seeds for Food.
From Golfers Weekly.


Some of the Indian tribes of the United
States still cling to their primitive forms Of
food notable instance of this is the con-
tinued use of wokas by the klamath In
dams. This tribe occupies the Klamath
reservation which is. part of the territory
originally occupied by it before the am
rival or the white men, and lies in the
southern part of Oregon The land has but
snail annual rainfall. but, on account Of
Its situation at the foot of the eastern slope
OF the cascade mountains, it is well wa
tered with streams and contains two con-
siderable bodies of water
one OF these, Klamath Marsh, is particu-
larry rich in plants. and consequently in
animal hfe Occupying about 10000 acres
OF TINS marsh there is a solid growth of the
large yellow water lily, Nymphaea polyse-
paia; In the old times the seeds of this
piaht were collected by the Indians. and, I'M
ger the name of wokas, furnished their
principal grain supply, filling the place of
the corn used by some other tribes. To-
Gay these seeds are still collected and re-
garded by the Klamath Indians as deli
cacy Inc lily seeds are harvested In Au-
gust the wokas gatherer uses dugout
canoe, and, pulling herself around among
the uense growth of stems and leaves, PICK
