two youths with q decided liking for
pretty girls drove out to sec these two
fair damsels. They were cordially re-

Supper over, they still fingered. Bed

INEXCUSABLE SENSATIONALISM

Congress having adjourned, and mat
ters being quieted down at Washing
ton. the public mind Is recurring TO the
outcry raised against the packers In
Chicago and the reason why that cry
was raised, We find the following In
Leslie's Weekly. which makes the mat
ter more OF puzzle than ever;
The hearing by the Congressional
committee revealed the fact that when
Professor Neill OF the Roman Catholic
University of Washington, and DR..
had completed their examination OF the
packing houses. and had prepared a
very adverse report, II was suggested
by the packing house management that
the latter would be glad TO have thirty
days In which TO correct any and all
evils that might exist, and In any man.
ner that might be recommended by the
investigators The latter were asked
not to teopardize great industry by
needless publication of disputed
charges If the purpose of the lnvesti-
CATION was simply TO correct abuses,
why was this fair and equitable offer
of the packers declinedr Was the first
consideration a reformation of abuses
or notorlety? This Is a question that
no one has yet answered"
The statement Of this proposition In
fact carries with It the answer to the
question asked. If Ii is true-and 1t
seems TO be true-that the packing
house management was entirely willing
TO comply With everything that the
Government required. and TO do 1t
within thirty days, there would seem
to have been no reason whatever for
publishing the. extremely sensational.

HEIGHT OF THE ATMOSPHERE.

HEIGHT OF THE ATMOSPHERE.
Chicago Tribune.
One hundred and thirty-one miles is
the height OF the atmosphere as meas
ured by Prof. T. ]. j. See. who deter
mines the thickness OF the air envelope
by noting the difference between the
time OF sunset and the complete disap-
pearance Of blue from the sky.
The moment at which the blue
changes into black can be observed
quite easily with approximate certainty
by the naked eye when the air Is clear
and by trigonometry may be ascer-
tained the distance below the horizon
OF the sun at the moment of change
BY this means may be calculated the
height OF the smallest Illuminated par
ticles OF oxygen and nitrogen. which
give to the sky its biuest tint by the
reflection OF the smallest wave lengths
OF the suns light.
The instant of change from blue TO
black is possibly little difficult of ex-
act observation, but the method is not
more doubtful than that based on the
observation of shooting stars. The
shooting star method gives q result not
greatly differing from the vanishing
blue method. The former gives the
height OF the atmosphere at 109 miles.

That an Indian tribe 1000 miles
