of Vincent Aston at Sulzer's reception
has given rise to the report that the
Governor intended to appoint the
young millionaire to an honorary po-

Governor Sulzer said: THE young
man is very much interested in the
National Guard. We talked about
National Guard affairs; that was
about all. Maybe Vincent will come

Brother Anselm, in charge of the

saw her at 10 o'clock and left her
there at noon. When he returned
later in the afternoon she was still
praying there. He thought she had
gone out in the meantime and had
returned. The church !s always open

pray. some of them for hours.

vantage in other lines of astronomical
investigation. AS yet we have no evil
dence that people do exist on Mars"
Lack Evidence of Life.
In line with this theory Professor
Edward Pickering says:
No astronomer in good standing
to-day believes that we have, enough
evidence to warrant the theory of life
on Mars
"The Harvard Observatory makes
no observations of Mars. At the In
ternational Conference of the Solar
Union at Bonn, last summer where a
large body of the greatest astrono-
mers gathered, no paper was read
upon the subject of Mars; it's surface
was not officially mentioned at any of
the meetings and the theory of life
on the planet, if referred to at all,
was spoken of only in joking way.
Professor Lowell has obtained ex
cellent data at Flagstaff, but the facts
that he has learned there do not war
rant him in the theories which he ad
vocates. His Judgments in error He
uses his imagination too freely in his
deductions
Errors Are Easy.
"At the Mount Wilson Observatory
Pasadena, Cal, the workers have not
discovered the canals which Professor
Lowell aScribes to the surface of Mars
and at Mount Wilson the work is car
ried on with 60-inch telescope aper-
ture under the most favorable condi-
tons, while the telescope at Flagstaff
has only 24-inch aperture.
at must be borne in mind that it is
very easy for one looking through a
telescope at Mars to mistake a series
of light points for surface markings
LAS to the idea of signaling Mars,
as one astronomer says: There may
be field of cabbage on Mars, but
what good would it do to signal a
field of cabbage?'"
Professor LoVells idea concerning
the data made relative to life on Mars
is exactly at variance with the idea
of Professor Pickering.
Grounds of Proof.
He says the proof of the habitation
Of Mars has two parts:
l. The trustworthiness of the OBJ
servations, and,
2. The Flagstaff theory that ex-
plains them.
$50 unanswerable has proved the
latter" he says, that those who
would disbelieve it have been forced
to deny the geometric. character Of
the observations. NOW these have
been confirmed by all those who have
made serious and special study of the
planet, from Schfaparelli, the first
astronomer of his day. down to the
most recent ones by NJ larry -Des-
loges.
THE critics have been star workers
and sun workers, but not planetary
workers, and to ask their opinion on
such a subject would be like asking
a surgeon about bacteriology
THE arguments as to the habitation
of the planet are given in my book
and can be judged by anybody who
reads them.
"As to my using my imagination
in reaching my conclusions, have
been extremely careful to do nothing
of the sort.
"A European astronomer. larry
Desloges, who has built observatories
in many places and at great expense
to obtain the very best working con-
ditions. has made drawings of the
planets surface which look like alb
solute replicas of ours, and / do not
