The fact that r. r. hasn't said
anything much of late need not be
taken to mean that he will have
nothing more to say. His present
silence is not only in good taste,
but is part of mastery tactics.
SO far, Mr.. Tumulty's appoint
ment as secretary to the incoming

more serious than an avalanche

Theory of Scientists.

The belief of astronomers is that
space contains vast number OF
bodies that we can not see. The
great visible bodies, like the sun,
the moon, the planets, and the
stars (Which are only very distant
suns) are of relatively immense
size, while most of the visible bod
les are very small-mere particles
in comparison with the earth.
These small bodies are scattered
through space, among the suns and
the planets, but they apparently
collect about the greater bodies,
and particularly about the suns, as
dust clouds collect about speed
ing automobile. They are all nee
essarily In motion-for in space
nothing can stand still-and their
motions are governed by the at
traction of the suns near which
they happen to be.
Our own sun evidently has vast
swarms of them circling about him.
If we know the shape of the paths
in which they are travelling it is
easy to calculate, from the attrac-
tive force of the sun, how fast they
must go. The fact that the aver
age velocity OF these bodies, when
they first become visible by catch
ing fire from friction upon plunging
into the earth's atmosphere, is
about twenty-siX miles per second,
shows that they are moving in
elongated orbits about the sun,
like those of comets. We speak Of
them, in general sense, as meteors.
Now the earth, travelling round
the sun nearly in a circle, with
velocity of about IS IL miles per
second, is continually moving
across the field in which the me-
teors are darling in various direc-

Our World Like Others.

AS to the composition Of these
strange bodies, it is a fact that no
element unknown on the earth has
ever been found in them. But they
nevertheless present peculiarities,
which enable mineralogists to dis
tinguish between them and mineral
masses Of earthly origin. They pre-
sent another proof, in addition to
that furnished by the spectroscope,
that the universe is everywhere
composed of similar substances.
Many columns might be written
about the question of the origin OF
such bodies, but I have space only
to remark that many believe the
iron meteors were originally shot
out of the sun, or out Of some dis
tant star. If this Is so, then when
you take such a meteor in your
hand you are touching bOdy
which may have come from Sirius,
or Aldebaran. or some sun lying on

~ Natural History, in New
York. writes d letter to ex-
press his disbelief in the state
ment that the huge mass of iron,
weighing thirty-six tons, which
Peary brought from Greenland
fell from the sky. And he is equally
incredulous concerning the celestial
origin OF the other aerolites, or
air stones" that are on exhibition
in the museum.
"They tell US" he says, that
these. masses of iron were shooting
through space with planetary We
locity, which means many miles per
second when they encountered the
earth. 1t seems that if that is SO
they could never have remained in
tact. They would either have been
melted. or broken up, pr buried
deep in the earth. Yet they say
that they are found resting on the
surface. Then, they are composed
of iron, copper. cobalt and other
minerals familiar on the earth, but
it seems to me that if they came
from another section of the uni
verse they would show us matter
at least little different from that
which composes our planet"
No doubt a great many other per-
sons have been as much puzzled over
these things as is the writer OF the
letter whose substance l have con-
densed above, and for that reason
il is worth while trying to enlighten
him little.
