I've felt small at times-middin' small, that is
like when the other fellow pays when you really
didn't mean to be busy, or like when you're down
in Frisco, CROWN forgetful of time and the trail

A life Of great usefulness ended at
Walbrook, near Baltimore, Dec n, In
the death OF Hon; Charles Edward
Phelps, formerly of the Baltimore Su-
preme Bench. Judge Phelps was born
In Vermont IN 1885. and after gradual
ing from Princeton and Harvard settled
in Baltimore ifiI184l, and entered upon
the practice Of the law. He first be-
came prominent a hn opponent of the
Know Nothings, and In 1860 was elect

the war broke out he took active sides
for the Union, and entered the service
as Lieutenant-Co Colonel OF the 7th Md

hours, or at o'clock p. m, the man
would be at b, at the point where the
sun sets, or does not shine on that part
of the earth. If he has kept his race
in the same direction 1t was in the
morning when he saw the sun rise,
which was east, without turning around
he would now be looking west. Where
is the sun at sundown? Is 1t in the

95, 100000 west. Now, let us suppose
that in 80 minutes after the sun has set,
or ceased to shine on that part of the
earth, her motion is reversed. Then the
man at B would see the sun rise again
as he did in the morning. In this case
the sun would set and rise on the same
meridian, for the man sees the sun set
ting in the west 95.000,OO0 Of miles
away, and in an hour he would see II
rising 95,000,000 of miles east, which
would, If true, require the sun to travel
100, 600, 900 of miles in one hour. This
would be going some even for this fast
age. Ny critics have given me plenty OF
lessons in longitude and time and some
primary lessons in phraseology, with
lot of good advice, all Of which is appre-
ciated, but they do not answer the ques-

Where Isrfhc si!n at sundown?

Editor National Tribune: In reply to
my critics, permit fme to say that the
question prdpounded in The Ma
tional Tribune of dune 4. Is not what
one would seq ato the equator on the
goth of March, DREAMY other date, nor
''the apparent pathvof the Sum-" or the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. orbit of the earth
toward the SSuth1Pole. Nor has the
Artic Circle Or the North or the South
Pole anything to do with the question,
and the discussion of these subjects will
never answer it. My critics quote me
as saying that the sun passed around the
earth, as in The National Tribune of
December 3. My problem is founded on
the fact that the earth passes around
the sun, and do not see how any one
could read what was published June 4
and make such a charge. Indulge me
with another diagram to illustrate the
question at the head of this article.

Widows Pensions.

Elias Byerts, S7th Pa, York. Pa,
says that he has been subscriber for
The National Tribune for over 20 years,
and can hardly wait from week to week
to get the paper. He is much interest
ed in the legislation for veterans. and
particularly in the widows pension bill
He earnestly hopes Congress will re-
move the limitations and include all
widows in the pension law. He mar
ried his second wife in 1896, and she
has proved noble helpmate for him.
He is old and hardly able TO do any
thing. so that his wife is kept busy all
the time caring for him and meeting
his wants. She has certainly earned
the right to have a pension when he
has passed away. His first wife had
nothing like the trouble with him, since
he was young and in good health.

Even If an evening gown has only a

sleeve, the white glove Just turns the
elbow. The glove that reaches to the
top of the arm Is out of style this year.
Shops insist upon selling them, and ii
is hard 20 find the especial length which
reaches about an inch above the elbow.
There are hundreds OF those that come
just below, others that reach to the
tiny sleeve; neither is correct. as the
new glove just covers the elbow and
leaves the top of the arm bare.
