placed the earth.
HE knew whom to suspect, and that
night he called on his neighbor. He
seemed thoughtful and distract, and

"'Well, I'll tell you, said my great

In ancient history days the feast of Thanksgiving lasted during one phase of the moon and was sort of harvest home" festival, which was called the Feast of Tabernacles. The offerings which the ancient Hebrews made to God on tais occasion were gold, silver and precious stuffs, besides laborers to
 work upon the rebuilding of the House
 of God. Reaf the first chapter of Ezra
 and you will find that this is so The Thanksgiving was an occasion of great
 pomp and ceremony. Workers in the
 church of God from the head dignitary to the least among them were clothed in purple and fine linen and wore gold
 en bands upon their turbans bearing the inscription, Holiness to the Lord" 1 They blew great trumpets as a signal, and all the people gathered together in the open places of the cities singing
 and praising God and giving thanks. Moreover, the building received the
 name of the builder The Temple of | Zerubbabel, for example, was built by l Zerubbabel under King Cyrus So the l feast Of Thanksgiving which we ob-

CLAIMS ASHES FROM THE SEA
Box Containing Them Was Cast From Pier, But Did Not Sink
 as Expected.

Atlantic City, N. J.-George A. Half ia of Philadelphia came to this city and claimed the box which was picked up 11a miles from this shore by Capt. Horace Smith containing the ashes of his mother, Ida Haffa.
 He wanted to bury the box in the ocean, he said, and was amazed wher! the box of heavy brass did not sink as he cast it from the end of the piers. He found he could not get it again, and told one of the workmen of the pier to look out for it in case it washed ashore, and offered reward of $10 for it's return to him.
 Haffa told Chief of Police Woodruff that the body had been exhumed from one of the old cemeteries of Philadel- phia after having laid in the grave five years, and was cremated last Tuesday. He took the box back to Philadelphia and will have it inferred in one of the cemeteries there. .

SUN WILL ABSORB WORLD
Professor Fauth, British Savart, Thinks New Solar System Will
 Be Created.

Berlin.-The whole of the present solar system is ultimately to fall into the sun, causing an explosion that may result in 2 new solar system. Such is the theory put forward in the Weekly Journal of Natural Science by Prof. Philip Fauth, a well-known as- tronomer, whose reputation has rested principally upon his researches into conditions on the moon.
 The novel feature of Dr. Fauth's the ory is that it is based upon the suppo- sition that a great part of the known solar system, including especially the planets Jupiter Uranus and Saturn, are not composed of mineral matter at all, but are tremendous masses of ice, or balls of ice surrounding a mln- eral kernel. Furthermore, he de- clares, part of what is now known as the milky way is not mineral or gaseous, but "a ring of ice dust, masses of particles of ice suspended in space, the outer planets receiving a constant addition to their ice mass from this source.
 Professor Fauth declares that the world already at some remote period has had similar experience, result ing ip tho death of nearly all animate nature and that all species of life as we know it have arisen since then. Eventually the planets swinging through their narrowing orbits will fall into the sun, causing a new ex- plosfon and perhaps the birth of a new solar system, but for thousands of years before that time all life, ei- ther on earth or elsewhere, will have disappeared

He then steps off and waits for the next up-stroke, when he is carried down another 12 feet. This process is continued until the bottom of the shaft is reached For ascending this process is reversed.
