CLOSE RANGE PLANETS.
Thoughts of Scientist on Nearby Bodies
Which Might Signal the Earth.

Whether wireless disturbances are
attempts at inter-planetary communicat-
ions or not there are astronomical bodies
within 80 miles of the earth's surface
which have attempted for some time to
come into communication with the earth
and such communication will be establish
ed more quickly than most chemists
realize, according to Charles Fort, author
of The Book of the Damned"
He believes it may be one of a number
of non-luminous planets closely adjacent to
the earth's surface which is attempting
TO establish contact with US.
There is a large mass Of data the
scientist declares, (which points to the
fact that there are planets within few
hundred some perhaps within 50 miles of
the earth's sur ace Thus, for example,
there have been many unexplained
eclipses which conceded with earthquakes;
these incidents lead to the conclusion that
some other planet is at that time close to
the earth, but that, because 1t Is not light

There are at least 80 echpses on record
which point strongly to the confusion
that planet passed between the earth
and the sun in such close proximity as to
cause perturbations within the earth it.

attempts to communicate with the earth

planet" he explained
''On several occasions swift plaques have
visited the earth. We may expect, with
out doubt, that some nearby planet viii
give the world new disease. 1t is a
matter of record that putrid falling
bodies have dropped upon the earth from
an undiscoverable place And these
bodies, putrid and bacteria bearing, may
be disease carriers
Mr. Fort maintains that the Newtonian
theory, although correct as far as it goes,
is fundamentally wrong in rejecting the
theory of repulsion as complement to the
law of gravitation. Astronomers, he says,
are too lazy to admit the truth of re-
pulsion because they would then be forced
to make their calculations and formulate
all over again.

STATE TOOFFER
HUGE REWARD
$4,000 Sum Proposed for
Capture Of Paymaster's
Slayer.

Boston, April ga motion has
been made in the Legislature to
offer a reward Of $4,000 for the cap
ture of the murderers of Frederick
A. Parmenter. paymaster of the
Slater and Morrill, Shoe Manufac-
turing Company. and his guard.
Alessandro Bernandelli, at South
Braintree last Thursday afternoon.
Tie murderers got away with
$40. .ooe.
The hold-up and murders were
committed in broad daylight close
to the factor, and witnessed by
hundreds in the factory. The rob-
bers drove up in an auto. and with
out warning began firing from
rifles on the two men, and kept on
firing after they had dropped and
after the paymaster was dead. They
then took the bags containing the
money. fired several shots at people
who inadvertently stuck their heads
out the windows, drove of, and that
is the last that has been seen of
them The auto was found in a
piece of woods about five miles from
the scene. There presumably con-
federates met them with other
autos.
Briefly that is the story of the
crime which has sunk so deeply
into the consciousness of New Eng
land-a thing the like of which even
Jesse James was never guilty of.
But the State of Massachusetts, is
going to leave no stone unturned in
its efforts to capture the murderers.
