THE EARTH AS A MOON.
Our World as II Appears to Venus and
e Our Own Moon.

Our World as Il Appears to Venus and
Our Own Moon.
II we could be transported TO the
planet Venus peculiar set OF views
could be obtained of our earth which
wonld enable us to see ourselves. to
some extent at least, as others see u.s.
I Venus Is about the same size as the
earth, is somewhat closer to the sun
and has more atmosphere than the
{ earth. When the earth and Venus are
nearest together they are. OF course. on
the same side Of the sun, and in conse.
quence OF this the earth does not see
more than very small part of the
Venus Illuminated, but Venus, on the
other hand, sees all OF one side of the
earth illuminated and consequently is
able to claim she has something that
takes the place of moon anyhow. for
the earth to Venus at this time looks
very large and bright, almost as much
so as our moon does to us,
If we could see all the Illuminated
surface Of Venus on these occasions
we should have quite a distinct sec
ond moon. When we do see all of her
Illuminated surface she is on the OPP
posite side of the sun from us and con-
sequently at an enormous distance. yet
she is so brilliant as to keep us from
seeing her surface distinctly.
But to our own moon we appear in
the best light as moon. A full earth
as seen from the moon, according to
Professor Todd and other astronomers.
is very inspiring sight Oh the moons
surface. 1t can at once be seen why
this is necessarily true. The earth is
several times larger than the moon
and would appear In the heavens as a
disk about fourteen times the size of
the moon. 1t would shine with prob
ably variable light, due to the shift
ing clouds on the earth. though the
light. of course. is reflected from the
sun. and the rejecting is done in part
by the upper surfaces OF the clouds.
The outlines of the continents of the
earth appear very clearly to the moon
as If they were formed OF papier
mache on a globe. Cities of compara-
lively large size could be made out
with ease in case people were there
to make them out. The intensity OF
the reflected earth light would be as
much as fourteen moons and would
enable the SeIenites. it such they are
to read or work in comparative day
light.-St Louis Republic.

The strained relations between
the Cannon and anti Cannon fore
es in Congress came to an open.
rupture last week. 1t was occa-
stoned by resolution introduced
by Congressman Norris, of Ne
braska, which provided for change
in the time honored method Of sa-
lecting the committee on rules.
Under the old system the rules
committee was composed of five
members, of which the speaker of
the house was president and the
other four members were appointed
by the speaker. Whether with JUS
tice or not, it has been urged that
this arrangement gave the speaker
too much influence over the com
mittee, and consequently over leg
|islation, in general, and for some
time the plan of divorcing entirely
the committee on rules from the
speakership has been agitated. The
resolution of Mr.. Norris, as finally
amended provides for committee
OF ter instead of five, six members
to be chosen from the dominant
party and four from the minority !;
excludes the speaker from mem
bership, and provides that the com
mittee shall be elected by the
house.
After struggle lasting two or
three days, during which time the
house was in session continuously
for % hours, the resolution was H.
4nally passed receiving the solid
support of the democrats, and
thirty five republicans, consisting
of the so called insurgent repub-
licans and few of the regulars.
a move to depose the speaker was
also introduced but on this motion
the republicans lined up against it
| and it was defeated.
| Many are disposed to attach too
! much Importance to this change
but it is in reality only an incident.
"a parliamentary body has the right
ito amend its rules at any time,
4and by a majority vote can set
Paside ruling of the speaker CT a
Recommendation of the rules com
'tnittee. The incident has served
, crafty the desires of those WHO
i>aished to humiliate the speaker,
I but the authority still rests with
the majority, just as it did under
the old system. Whether the new
system will result in less friction
than the old remains to be seen.
