It has been reported that much whiskey is being sold in Dothan and we all know those who must have their mornings arrange to get 1t. but very few know that 1t is se- cured illegally.

Simultaneous Discoveries and
Inventions.

IL it d mere coincidence that
Cook and Peary have discovered the
North pole at practically the same
time? The history of science shows
that the greatest discoveries of the
world have been made simultaneously
by two or more men working, UNI
known to each other, toward the same
end. 1t was laid down more than
100 years ago by that grim old Ger
man philosopher. Hegel, that the one
man mind was the world mir His
theory was that discoveries were held
in suspension in some minds, which
permeated with their intensity the
minds OF all mankind, thereby sug-
costing Identical ideas among men re-
motely separated.
Hegel may be deep in his philoso-
ply, but the facts of scientific his
tory seem to bear him out in a man
ner beyond the possibility of mere
coincidence" Not to go back beyond
his time. when the Frenchman lie
Buet claimed a discovery of the at
traction of gravitation simultaneously
with Newton, there is the remarkable
coincidence of Watt and Stephenson,
one in the north and the other in the
south of England, as far removed in
communication in that day of 1888 as
Washington and Sitka are today, and
un%acquainted with each others exper-
iments, each pitching upon the
thought OF the reciprocating engine
the practical engine of today-all
within the same month.
The case of the discovery of the
planet Neptune. SO remote that IT is
hardly distinguishable by the naked
eye, is a most remarkable case in sup
port Of Hegel's theory. For more
than fifty years astronomers had been
securing the heavens to discover the
cause of certain variations in the out
er planets-and utterly without sue
cess. Yet at 10 o'clock on Il night
Of November, 1S45, a certain a%strono-
mer, Adams, in charge of the Royal
observatory at Greenwich, located this
disturbing body as an outermost ana
unknown planet of IA system. At
that very same hour Jean Leverrier,
an astronomer in the observatory at
Paris, found through his telescope
tiiiS very SdIlt htdI do lut out INA
was creating the trouble. Neither
Adams nor Levcrricr knew the other
except by reputation; certainly, as
their controversy afterward showed.
neither knew that the other was
working toward the same end.
A still better case in proof OF
Hegel's law was one i'm Washington.
when on a day in February. 1877, two
patents for the most novel invention
or the age-the telepbone-both idcn-
teal in practical specifications, were
filed within half al hour of each
other. No one had even approached
the true principle of the instrument
until two men, each utterly ignorant
of the other. much less his discover
les, came together with the same
idea. fully developed, all within the
same half hour.
The Darwin-Russell controversy and
the recent simultaneous exploits OF
aviators are other cases in point
London Tit-Bits.
