A SIGNIFICANT NOTICE.

Richard Croker, the day of his de.
parture for his Irish home, said to a
New York reporter:
ut is the desire for freedom that
sends so many Americans and so many
millions Of dollars abroad every June
The Puritanical laws of America en-.
slave us. These laws, with their total
misconception of freedom and of en-.
joyment, are we'll exemplifed in a no.

feet per second would have force
sufficient to carry it to a point where
the force of gravity of the earth and
the sun counterbalance one another.
The monster projectile would then
hang balanced in space, as the moon
is held in position by the opposing
attraction of earth and sun. Like
the moon, the projectile would re-
volve round the earth, drawn by the
rotary motion of the latter. Being
much lighter than the moon, the pro-
iectile would revolve more quickly.
1t would, in fact, revolve round the
earth in one hour and twenty min
utes instead of one month, the time
occupied by the moon in the same
performance
The new peace proiectile at night
would then furnish the most wonder
full and brilliant spectacle in the
skies, and would also be very useful
as timekeeper. As the time of it's
passage does not correspond with the
hours, we should probably establish a
separate time system for the night.
The projectile would serve still an
other valuable purpose if, when it
was just ready to be fired. some ma
ton insisted on disturbing the newly
established universal peace. then the
colossal projectile could be fired at
that troublesome nation instead Of
at the sky.

A little colored girl, deeply insult

FIRING OFF A LITTLE MOON As A
UNIVERSAL PEACE MONUMENT

The peace lovers of Europe are
planning a wonderful world-dazzlng
monument to commemorate the abo-
lition of war. This conclusion, they
believe, is close at hand, as a result
of the strenuous efforts now being
made by leading statesmen to secure
universal peace through arbitration.
The plan of the peace-lovers is to
create a new celestial satellite of the
earth, which will constantly remind
the nations that war is over.
This will evidently be a difficult un-
dertaking to carry out, but some Of
the most distinguished scientists IN
the world have pointed out how it
may be done.
Camille Flammarion, the greatest
and most imaginative astromer in
France, has furnished most of the
working plans and calculations for
creating the new satellite.
All the cannons now existing in the
world will be melted into one great
cannon and all the shells now exist
ing will be melted into one great
shell of spherical shape.
This will furnish a gun with a
3OO-mile range and a muzzle velocity
of 10000 feet per second. 1t would
be capable of destroying Paris if fired
from London, or vice versa. NJ. Flam
marion has calculated that a project
lie with muzzle velocity of 26,O)C
