 The Moros surrounded the pearlers and began the attack at long range. To this fire the crew of the pearlers responded, but having limited arms and little ammunition, the defense did not amount to much. Two of the rearling luggers immediately got up sail and were able to escape.
 As the steamship ,Borneo was leav- ing Jolo a pearler was being lowed in by a launch, but being pressed for time, Captain Pfort could not await to hear the details of the affair. How ever, the report that he brought is

LONDON, England.-That which but a short time ago seemed to take its rank with the fairy stories in the Fables is fast becoming an cs. abolished fact, and the existence of the people of Mars is discussed as seriously as any other scientific phcn- omcnou which is in progress of proof.
 A storm of mcredulity was raised when SchiaparclH first discovered the marks on Mars which he attribut- ct to the work and agency of living beings. The usual sneering remarks were called forth, but the uucrriug eye of the camera has proved beyond doubt that those marks exist.
 The romance of Mars, however con. sists on the fact that if life exists there it is q life which is fighting a death struggle with nature Mars is planet on which water is bccom- ing scarcer and scarcer.

 Mars is much smaller than the earth, and consequently the process c; drying has gone on quicker. More. over. it is probably much older in its evolution.
 Professor Lowell suggests, in his extremely interesting article, that the Martian canals are the hopeless struggle of a people to convey water from their poles that only a race of great intellect. developing with the menace of nature to its existence, could have surmountcd the growing difficulties but the struggle environ mont." he says, must be drawing to near the limit in Mars and the last resources of ingenuity have been in- yokcd in the struggle with the incX- Crablc conditions of the universe
 A nearer interest perhaps attaches in the fact that that the history we see carried out in Mars will eventual, " be the history of our own world.
