Start of the Inquisition

From the Kansas City Star
 St. Dominic. a Spanish monk. is sup posed to have been responsible for the holy inquisition--that great organization which tortured and slew men and women and children in the name of God. 1t be- gan in the 12th century and lasted for many years, having been practioed in the New World by the Spaniards in Mexico.
 In the beginning of his life Dominic was very mild hammered monk, so the story goes, and it was not until in middle life, when he set out upon a journey to Denmark, that the tenor of his ways was changed. He met many persons. and shocked by their conduct and heresies, Dominic set himself to reform or punish them. He practiced what he preached and became a barefooted black-robed mendicant friar-a black friar-qnd set out to convert the disobedient children. But success did not attend his efforts, and he had to say at last:
 T have spoken to you with tenderness, with prayers with tears. but according to the proverb of my country, where the benediction has no effect. the rod may have such. Behold how we rouse up against you princes and prelates, nations and kingdoms, and many shall perish by the sword.'
 And many did perish.

Death to the Gypsy Moth

From the Boston Transcript.
 Several millions of gypsy moth caterpii- lars are fed on lettuce in greenhouses in Newton. They have been matched arti- ficially and grow fast on their juicy food' being now in their third or fourth mouit-
 They eat themselves to death. and after they are dead they will cause others flo die Instead of being given respectable burial they will be carted into forest lands of the state and suspended in the air, so as to poison the atmosphere where their kin live in greatest number. Their wilted bodies will rest in little hammocks near the tree top during the hot season, and the ground below them may become filtered with the dead bodies of gypsies poisoned by their presence. Thousands of places have been designated already as the final resting places of these lettuce fed caterpilars from Newton greenhouses. Such, in general terms. is the cycle of the wilt disease with which the state for ester, Prof. F. w. Rane. has experment- cd for some time, and which he has adopted as means of exterminating the gypsy moth.

What Ancients Knew About Eclipses

From the Pall Mall Gazette.
 The ancients found out how to predict
 eclipses of the moon, but those of the sun baffled them. They observed the lunar
 cycle of IS Julian years Il days. in which
 the moon returns to almost the same po- sition in the heavens, but they could not apply this to solar eslipses, although the period answers for both. The reason of the failure was that. although solar eclipses recur in fixed order within the cycle, they are not visible again at the same part of the earth's surface. Eclipses
 Of the moon are universally visible. In any given year the number of eclipses of the sun and moon together cannot be less than two or more than seven. The
 most usual number is four It is very
 rarely that it exceeds six. Astronomers observe what they call "eclipse seasons for each year These last 36 days for solar and 23 days for lunar eclipses The sea
 sons occur about 20 days earlier every | year.
