There are some amusing memories
at Kyleakin, in Skye, Of visit once
made there by Carlyle, travelling in the
train of Lady Ashburton. The KY
Ieakinses felt a lively curiosity con-
cerning the distinguished author, and
whenever he appeared in public he
was surrounded by a crowd Of admir-
ing men. women and children who had
heard sensational reports concerning
his "cleverness as a scholar" Carlyle
seemed to like this hero worship until
these admirers clustered round him
while he was in the midst of his sea
bath one day. Then he assailed them
in language much more emphatic than
elegant. which soon made them tax
to their heels and scamper off with all
speed out Of his sight. Lady Ashbur-
ton had prayers with her daughter and
servants morning and evening, but the
sage was never present. During these
periods. Neil Machines. the tnnkeeper
used TO relate. ''he would lead me to
the coffee room and there. laying hold
of me by tPe coat buttonhole, he
would lecture to aae for half an hour
on end on all sorts OF subjects, and he
we4ld be so intent on 1t that he
wouldn't allow me to put in a word

OBSERVATION OF MARS.
Synopsis of the Recent Observation by
w. w. Campbell.

San Jose, Cal, Sept ia synop-
sis of his recent observations of Mars
from the summit of Mount Whitney
has been given out by Director w.
w. Campbell, of Lick Observatory. He
says in part:
Water vapor in the atmosphere of
any planet causes dark bands at GER
tain definite positions in the spectrum
of that planet; conspicuous bands of
water vapor is abundant, inconspicu--
GUS if the quantity is slight
"Observers of Mars usually have to
look through the earth's atmosphere,
which contains a large quantity of
water vapor, but from the Summit of
Mount Whitney, 14,501 feet above sea
level, this expedition places itself
above four-ffths of the water vapors.
Our observations seemed to prove
that Mars has only slight quantity
of water vapor.
These observations don't prove
that life does not or cannot exist on
Mars. The question of life under
these conditions is biological rather
than an astronomical problem"
