LATEST MAN ON EARTH.

Of Bed, But He Returned,

LONDON. October 9.-The LATEST
man on earth has been discovered
again. This time 1t is Archibald
Depau of Westgreen, who was sum.
moned yesterday for neglecting his
three children. +.
The prosecutor said that since
January. 1908, Depau had never at
tempted to work, but spent most OF
his time In bed. his wife and fam
lily being left to maintain them
selves as best they could. So lazy
was he that. II 1t were possible, he
would get somebody to draw his
breath for him. His wife would turn
him out OF bed In the morning ana
urge him to seek work. but he would
go back again. He had variety OF
excuse for his idleness. He was ell

lie would turn over on his side, and,
with yawn say he did not want to
be spoken to. When was hungry he
crawled out of bed and helped him
self to the children's food and went
back again.
Depau's wife testified that he lay
In bed for weeks at a stretch. She
had lifted him and the bed I'D 20

once, after severe struggle, she
got him out Of the bedroom, but he
crept back again through a win
dow.
Mr.. GRANVILLE. relieving oficer,
who had given him an opportunity to
earn money at the stoneyard, SAID
that Depau had told him that the
stones were too hard.

Nuinberless small meteors ranging
in sise from a goose egg to q large
watermelon are on exhibition in va
rious museums throughout the
States. One In particular is on pub
lie show In the State Board of Trade
rooms over the ferry building at San
Francisco. This meteor fell in Napa
county. California, and is of irregu-
lar shape and about the size of a
five gallon can.
1t is an established fact that
large majority Of falling meteors
reach the ocean. This is probably
accounted for by the fact that there
is three times as much water as
there is land, and again It may be
that large bodies Of water have a
larger attractive force than dry land.
The writer has examined large
number OF meteors and they all APP
pear to be of the same composition
which shall be nameless as far rs
he Is concerned. 1t is neither rock.
iron nor earth. Nothing OF the same
nature has ever been mined on this
globe. OF course It is a fact that
nothing will ever reach this eraht
from any satellite, star, comet or
planet without first passing through
most intense FRACTIONAL heat that
Will totally destroy all traces OF It's
original composition. A meteor,
when It reaches the earth very much
resembles piece Of Stag from
furnace only It is of a hardness un-
Ike anything used in every day
life.
There Will be another meteoric
shower next month that will, ac-
cording to the astronomers, be more
wonderful than the last.
