HOW OLD IS THE WORLD?

Prof Ray Lankester, in the course of an interesting outline of the advanc- ment of science in the past twenty-five years, which he gave at the opening meeting of the British association at York, raised the question of the age of the earth.
 He said the discovery of radium far exceeded all other discoveries in inn portance If the sun consisted of a fraction of 1 per cent of radium it would account for and make good the heat that is annually lost by it.
 This is a tremendous fact the pro- lessor continued, "upsetting all calcu- ations of physicists as to the duration in past and future of the suns heat and the temperature of the earth's sur face.
 "The physicists, notab' y Prof. Taft, had long contended that some thou sand million years must have passed during which the earth's surface has presented approximately the same con- ditions of temperature as at present, in order to allow time for the evolution of living things and for the formation of the aqueous deposits of the earth's crust.
 The physicians. notably Prof Taft and Lord Kelvin. refused to allow more than 10,O000O0 years (which thty sub sequent'y increased to a hundred mil lion)-basing this estimate on the rate of cooling of a sphere of the size and composition of the earth. They have assumed that it's material is self-cool- ing.
 But, as Huxley pointed out. mathe- matics will not give true result when applied to erroneous data. It has now, within these last five years. become evident that the earth's material is not SC e'f-cool;ng, but on the contrary self heating. And away go the restrictions imposed by physicists on geological time. They now are willing to give us not merely a thousand million years, but as many more as we want.'-Den- yer Republican.

10 GUST GEAR
 OF HE BOWERY
Roosevelt Backing Young Mans Fight
 Against Tammany Boss.

New York Aug. 23.-C Special Cor respondence of The Republican, Gan the Bowery be Harvardized and can a young gentleman fresh from the cIas- sic shades of old Cambridge supplant Big Tim Sullivan. the Tammany poten- tate, as czar of the east side? These are questions that are being seriously considered in that turbulent quarter these days J. Brice Gordon Rinehart. a young Harvard man who has taken up his residence on the east side, thinks they can be answered in the af- tiTmative and he is making the first move toward the decapitation of Big Tim" by going after the republican leadership of de Thoid" assembly dis trict, Big Tim's bailiwick. The present republican leader is Jimmy" March. March was christened Giacomo Maggie, and up to year or so ago was one of Big Tim's chief democratic lieutenants. But Big Tim decided that as the dis trict was his property he must control the republican leadership as well as that of his own party. So Maggie changed his name and his politics. and soon captured the republican post. That is the way politics are run on the Bowery, and, besides, the big republi- can bosses were complacent. The dis trtct was admitted to be Big Tim's property. But now Rinehart is giving the Sullivan dummy a hard fight. He is what the BOwery calls a good mixer" and a sport" The fact that he knows several languages helps him 10 make friends with the heterogeneous population. At first the Bowery laughed at him, then it began to ad- mire him, and now it is betting on him. James B. Reynolds. co-author of the Neill- Reynolds packingtown report. is working with him. and MT. Parsons. the reform president of the republican county committee, stands by him. All the resources of the Sullivan clan and the machine element in the republican organization are pitted against him.
 Since MT. Rinehart opened his head quarters at the Capitol hotel. in the heart of the Bowery, he has discovered that the east side is fairly swarming with gentlemen who are willing to ad- init without cOaxing that they also are Harvard men. They are scarcely of the accepted Harvard type. for tattered beer-statned clothes and rubicond noses are their prominent characteris- tics. Also they are without exception Tn need of pecuniary aid. At first they usually solicit MT. Rinehart for $10 for their starving families and later ex- press a willingness to compromise on 5 cents for a schooner of beer. Among the prominent Rowery gentlemen who have con6ded to Mr Rinehart that Harvard is their alma mater are Mir

Now, as to the present forgery case. Forgery is not an offense designated in the section above quoted. But MT. BUllard contends that as the offense was not committed against an Indian, and the crime was not committed on
 United States territory or a reserva- ton. but was committed by an Indian against a white man, inside of terri torial Jurisdiction that though the crime is not enumerated in the statute
 the territory has Jurisdiction just as much as it would have against any foreigner.
 Continuing MT. Bullard said: Tt
 has been decided by the supreme court
 of the United States that in a state
 this doctrine is true, but it is intimat-
 ed by the same authority that in a ter
 ritory the contrary might be true. The United States supreme court" he said
 has never decided the question. but
 has intimated that congress has the
 right to specify what crimes an Indian may be punished for as being perfectly ] comprehensible by him. and others that
 he may not be punished for, for the reason that. not belonging to a higher civilization he does not understand the right or wrong of the case"
 Mr. Bullard admits that the enumer- alton of certain crimes for which an Indian may be tried carries with it the implication that he could not be prose cuted for offenses not enumerated However. until the district court de- cides against him, he will hold that the 1 territory has jurisdiction. If the court decides to the contrary. the situation
 will be that. the offense not being
 against the United States government the Indian will practically escape pun ishment. MT. Bullard was asked if the i Indian would not be amenable to pun ishment in the United States court He replied that he had not fully invest:- gated that matter, as that was a ques- ! tion for the United States district at l torney to decide but. so far as he had looked he had found no section in the United States statutes covering forg- cry, except forgery against the United
 States government
 The interest in the case lies in the fact that if the territorial court is without Jurisdiction and there is nc
 United States law covering the case
 an Indian can forge a white mans name until his arm is paralyzed or somebody hits him with a club. and there would be no redress.

COURT JURISDICTION
 IN INDIAN CASES
Possibilities of a New Industry for
 Native Americans.

Further information was secured yesterday of Assistant District Attor- ncy Bullard concerning the status of the Indian arrested on the charge of forgery for raising a check given by l.. M. Hoghe, and the reasons of MT Bullard for desiring to prosecute the In- dian instead of turning him over to the United States authorities. The arrest was made under section 79 of the or ganic law of Arizona, the only section that might cover the case. and that don't seem to, The section says:
 All Indians committing against the person or property of another Indian or other person any of the following crimes, namely. murder, manslaughter, rape, assault with intent to Kill, arson, burglary, and larceny. within any ter ritory of the United States and either within or without an Indian reserVa- ton, shall be subject therefor to the laws of such territory relating to such crimes. and shall be tried therefor in the same courts and in the same man ner and shall be subject to the same penalties as are all other persons charged with the commission of said crimes respectively; and the said courts are hereby given Jurisdiction in all such cases" etc.
 III d lOIihef case, where an lnQlan was arrested for stabbing another at the Indian school and charged with assault to commit murder" Judge Kent decided that the court was with out jurisdiction. The ruling was on the ground that assault to commit mur- der was not one of the crimes emu merated in the above section. "Mur- der" and assault with intent to kin" are both mentioned Assault to com init murder is a premeditated assault with malice, whereas assault with in tent to kill might not be. The charge brought against the Indian could not have been made assault with intent to kill" for the reason that that ex- pression is not found in the territorial law. so the grand jury could not indict on that charge, and there could be no trial without an indictment.

The Broad Exchange building, one of New York's taIIest skyscra pers in the Wall street district. has just paid the highest price ever given for a coaIhole. This was no less than S325. .00O. When the big skyscraper was constructed. few years ago, the boilers to furnish power for the great elevators, electric lights, steam heat, etc. were located in an extension in the rear, access to which was had only by narrow drive way running through the property of r. B. Jennings. Recently MT. Jennings decided that the carts that had to de- liver fifty tons a day to the big sky scraper were blocking up his property and he forbade the owners of the building to use it for that purpose any longer The courts upheld his conten- tion. and the managers of the Broad Exchange building found themselves with boiler room to which it was inn possible to get coal. In such contin- gency the elevators would be unable to run. and a skyscraper without ele- vatOrs is a more hopeless proposition than a ship without a rudder. The owners of the building. with visions of what the tenants of the upper floors would say some hot summer morning when they found that they must walk up twenty or more flights of stairs to their offices, decided to act in a hurry. Accordingly after some quick time ne gotiations, they solved the problem by purchasing for S325,OO0 another big building abUtting on the Broad-Ex change. Through this they will run coal tunnel to their own boiler rooms.
 There is good shooting for game in the heart of the metropolis these days. The sport is obtained in the broad acres of Central park, but only one man is allowed to enjoy it. This favored indi- vidual is Arthur Hassler the official huntsman of the park department. whose duty it is to scout about Central park with his rifle and a pocketful of cartridges and kill the small animals that prey on the squirrels, birds and rabbits. Stray dogs that worry the ducks that waddle ashore from the ponds to beg food from visitors; pred atory cats that climb trees to rob the nests, or hunt the squirrels which are tame and lazy; rats that live about the ponds and kill the young fOwl-these are all fair game for the official maI ksman's skill In the first week of this month he killed twenty eight cats, seven dogs and ten rats. Since the open season for dogs. cats and rats be- gan this spring about 450 of them have fallen victims to his rifle

Mile Republican association, and sim liar organizations have been offered to MT. R3nehart by Harvard men" of this type. MT. Rinehart. however, simply gives his importunate callers the glad hand" and d pleasant smile. And that smile IS winning the Bowery. MT Rinehart. by the way. has a good pre- cedent for success. Not many years ago a young Harvard man entered politics in a crowded district in New York and soon had the Tammany bosses on the run. His name was Theodore Roosevelt, and he is now taking great interest in MT. Rineharts s fight.

CURIOUS TALK

There was some curious talk in the
debate by the Iowa State Senator on
the Lewis bill for a national cOnVeti-
ton to decide upon plans for electinS
United States senators by the direct
vote of the people. Senator Durham
opposing the bill said it was inspired
by the interests that are DESTROYS OF
securing the seats now held by SEM
tors Deliver and Allison OF Iowa. He
added that it was a miserable polite Il
impulse which which prompted the
introduction of this resolution. 1t
sprung from the dirtiest, lowest, pea
nut politics in the history Of the state.
Talk of this kind from frieht
of Senator Allison and Dolliver is GU
rious because it will generally be Coz
strued as an admission that neither
Dolliver nor Allison could hold this
senatorship if the people of Iowa ha1
a chance to vote on the question. No
other inference is possible. And II
the resolution was inspired by men
who are unfriendly to the senators
then they must believe strongly II
their ability to GUST them by a popu-
lar vote. Further. if the people Of
Iowa do not want to be represente
by Alison and Dolliver they should
be given the privilege of saying so.
From any viewpoint direct election
of United States senators is altogether
desirable. A large majority of the
legislatures of the various states have
already adopted resolutions of an al
firmative character on the subjec7.
The house has several times passed
resolution for a constitutional
amendment but the senate has lnvar-
iably killed it. 1t may be that at
some future time the senate also VII
act favorably, for the demand is great
and growing constantly.
There is really no sound argument
against the proposition. The pubic
officer who is afraid to let the peOpe
he serves vote for or against him do s
not deserve to serve any people. TIE
adoption of a constitutional amend
ment for the popular election of SCI
ators might deprive the august upper
house of some Of its best known mem
bers but the country could work.
