A Scene in the Park.
From the New York Mail.


On a portion Of the lawn in Central
Park marked Keep off the grass
with a very conspicuous sign two small
babies lay recently, spread COM
fortably out on blanket in the
shade. BY their sides, Oh the grass, sat
the proud young mothers. The babies
were not more than six months old
maybe not more than six months be-
tween themLand they were quite half
naked and were kicking their bare legs
in the air and cooling happily while the
young mothers beamed and smiled. To
this scene Of idyllic peace and joy came
mounted policeman. riding along the
bride path not ten feet from the tres
passing group. He looked at the babies
and their mothers and at the Keep off
the grass" sign. and he smiled cheer
fully at the group with a smile which
seemed to say: For this was Central
Park foreordained from the beginning
of the world Then he put up his po-
licemanly hand in a sort of respectful
salute and rode on his way. And the
Office window man recalled the immortal
utterance of Deyery the Great: "A po-

AIRSHIP TO THE MOON.
Prof. Serviss Says the Only Lack
Would Be Air to Breathe.
From the New York Mail.

rom the New York Mail.
On the deck of La Provence. at the be-
ginning of an old-fashioned ocean Jour-
ney for a summer in France, Carrot p
Serviss. the we'll known astronomer, to-
day talked seriously of an airship service
to the moon, which he thinks the future
has in store for man.
Il begin to think seriously, but not too
seriously, now that we have achieved the
navigation of the air by mechanical
means. that there only remains the reces-
Slty Of providing air to exist upon and
things to eat for man to go to the moon, :
he said.
But We have got to have a new mo-
tive force. Electrical propulsion begins
to hint what that force will be when men
fly from planet to planet. Yet understand
we have got to overcome gravity, and
there are only two forces which overcome
gravity under certain conditions-pressure
of light and electricity.
so l say that the first flying machine
to the moon will be based on the princi-
pie of the pith ball that flies away from
the conductor Of an electrical machine.
When this has been accomplished there
only remains to be done what modern
chemistry certainly can achieve-that is.
to fill strong vessel, a spherical vessel,
with enough food and air to sustain man
during the flight This Is not SO ridicu-
lous as 1t may seem. and the modern
achievement of flying is a step in that d.
rection."
Incidentally Prof Serviss does not be-
lieve there are any inhabitants on Mars
',My friend Lowell he said. doesn't al
low for the fact that Mars is too small
to retain an atmosphere. Human beings
could not remain on Mars because there
probably is not enough oxygen and nitro
gen on that planet. The gravitative force
is too small to retain an atmosphere The
atmosphere flies away. Those lines called
canals are no doubt natural phenom-
enon, Notwithstanding the fact that they
look artificial. Their existence is due to
the fact that Mars is q very fiat planet
There are no mountains there, and waters
spread out in every direction and form

runs in every direction and gives that

Bristol's Slave Traffic.
from the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
Bristol. which welcomes the king.
owed much of its early prosperity to
the traffic in slaves. In the early days
the slaves were principally Welshmen
captured in the wars and brought to
Bristol for transport to Ireland. but in
later times the city became the chief
center of the African slave trade. 1t
has also. however, been prominent in
more worthy Industries. Bristol was
the first place in England to manufac-
ture brass, and at one time it was
the only seat of the soap rfs-<ing in
dustry. In the making Of woolens too,
Bristol took the lead. and ooe of her
citizens. Thomas Blanket. hep set his
name upon his manufacture

How Corn Grows.
From the New York Mail.

from the New lOrk MIL
While the present very warm spell IS
on us it is possible to hear corn grow
One needs only to sit down in the MIDST
of a field after nightfall and. II there
be no breeze to. rustic the stalks ana
mislead the ear, listen to the cracking,
swapping sounds that come softly from
every direction. 1t is the unfolding or
the leaf wrapper. which like a bandase
gives way to the mystery of life
Corn grows. it would seem, in the night.
Some naturaists have thought that the
analogy of the tree life is followed. 1t Is
we'll known that in the spring the sap
of the tree passes upward from the roots
on warm morning and retreats at
night. In it's passage the sap OF the maple
Is to be obtained by wound IN the trunk:
There is little doubt that the life blood OF
the corn rises by the heat of the day
and takes on something from the sun,
something from the air, to breathe Wnlcn
the young blades of the stalks are ike
lungs. But the theory is that When the
chill OF night drives down the corn sap
In retreat there is a deposit of fiber
left In the passage. Hence the stalks
enlarge. Hence the slipping of green fet-
tiers makes itself audible, and the farmer
says he hears the corn grow.
He laughs when the night Is warm. Just
why the process is interrupted by cold
nights is not SO very clear 1t IS true,
however, that one cannot hear the corn
grow when the nights are decidedly cold
Probably that other chemical process, the
twin Of the process in the sunlit leaf
in the upper air, needs warmed earth,
and the sap that undoubtedly went up in
the morning was not made tit.
Speaking of the lower of the twin proc
esses, 1t is noteworthy that air, the same
pure air. must get at the roots. That is
what hoeing the corn means; not a simple
wedding. but loosenins of the soil which
allows aeration of the roots. And not
aeraton only, but the opening of chan
nels for rain and the dews to contribute
moisture. These are in the dark iabora-
tory The leaf works in the light laboca-
tory.

MOOSE IN MINNESOTA.
More in Woods of Northwest Now
Than for Years Past.
From the Chicago News.

FROM the Cnicago news.
There are more moose in the woods of
northwestern Minnesota this year than
there have been for the last ten years.
and the outlook for the hunting season
next fall Is the best 1t has been for
years." said H. E. Flynn of Two Har-
bors. Mimi, who was in the city the
other day.
Until the recent stringent game law
was passed by the Minnesota legislature
1t looked as II the ravages of the hunters
rifles would drive the last remnant Of the
monarch of the American forests beyond
the Canadian border. The slaughter OF
moose by interruptions sportsmen was
wantoniy cruel.
In the forests about Ely l have found
the remains OF carcaSSeS left where the
animals were killed without even taking
thu hide. Monster bull moose were SO
common ten years ago shat II was little
trouble TO bring down fine specimens
and II COW or calf moose we're slain they
were not considered worth carrying
home.
Five years ago / doubt whether a herd
OF any size could be found in the forests
of Minnesota and it was practically i'm
possible to get fully grown bull moose.
Few of them were lucky enough to evade
the broaGside of hunters who fired where
ever u tWig cracked. hoping that it was
game but often finding that 1t was an
unfortunate fellow huntsman.
When the moose began to thin out the
deer herds began to suffer. but they, too.
are recruiting something of their old
time numbers. The does and fawns, in
particular. are plentiful. woodsmen tell
me. due to the fact that they are eX-
tremely tim.d anu pass most of their
time in thickets that form a real shield
from hunters.
IF the game laws are enforced ~ they
have been for the last tive years there is
no doubt that both deer ana moose will
be plentiful for years to come despite the
prediction that they will be almost en-
tirely wiped out in decade. The greater
danger is in the ravagcs OF the lumber
mems axes, which are gradually clearing
away the forests and which will In time
bring about the utter extinction Of these
wild animals"

CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, July 21.-Deniais of rust re-
ports from Canada today pressed the
wheat market down. Statements by
number OF correspondents declared crop
conditions generally favorable. In the
Saskatoon district. where advices yester-
day told of an outbreak Of rust. today's
dispatches insisted that the outlook was
first-class. Opening prices were un-
changed to l. up. September started at
9fis to aiss, 4 to y higher. and then fell
to 93ss.
Further rain in Nebraska where needed
made the corn market weak Support
seemed 10 be lacking. September opened
u to % lower at 65is to 65l4, and sagged
to 64&4.
The July option in oats went to pieces
owing to heavy receipts expected Mon
day Although offerings today were
only moderate. the price dropped as
much as IA at one time. demand was
SO small. The collapse led to fair gem
eral selling of other months. Septem-
Der started II to IS off at :s23s to 3311s, and
receded to ::2,s
Ffrmness in the hog market caused an
upturn in provisions. First sales varied
from a shade to % higher. with Septem-
Der delivery 1875 TO 1896 for pork, ~. SO

Premature Burial.
From the London Atkenaeum.

rom the LONDON Atkeuapum.
nj. Thoinot. professor Of forensic
medicine to the Paris Academy de
Medicine. has just been lecturing upon
premature burial. an accident the fear
of which is, perhaps. not SO prevalent
as It was in the days Of Edgar Allan
Poe. He gave an interesting descrip-
ton of the many inventions devised
for the avoidance of this, including
the insertion of a breathing tube in
the mouth of the corpse, which is
brought through the lid of the coffin
and projects from the grave. But he
declared that no precaution was SO
satisfactory as that of delaying the
burial until the signs OF putrefaction
are apparent. The provisions OF the
code Napoleon. which ordain that no
burial shall take place until twenty
four hours after death and inspection
by the medical authority of the dis
trict are, he said. entirely adequate on
this point, and if they are carried out
to the full no one need have any fear
OF being buried alive.

The Use Of Reverend"

The term reverend was first applied
to 4 clergyman in 1o57' May / draw
your attention to the statement made by

where occurs the following: The death

John Connant." As a term of respectful
address not followed by any name, the
use is very much older. dating back as
