UyHE cast iron ram or prov of

II GINA (Merrimacl is now lying
in front of an iron foundry In
Baltimore. Nd. at the Jones Hol-
low WareN Co., 1000 block, Asland

Of the foundry furnaces.
IT'S authenticity is vouched for
and it undoubtedly is the original
Merrimac ram having been posi-
lively identified by Mr.. III, A..
Ramsey, who was chief engineer
OF the Merrimac.
There is absolutely no local
interest in the preservation Of
this civil war Confederate relic as
it is in no way associated with
Baltimore city or State Of Mary
land history.
After careful consideration Of
the matter the conclusion has
been reached that this ram Is in
every sense a national relic and
logically should be In the posses

In their Orbital movements.
With 3 magnifying power OF
100 diameters we see Jupiter as
IT would look to the naked eye
At q distance OF 4,24O, 900 miles, or
about eighteen times the moons
distance. The spectacle becomes
more impressive and formidable
the longer you watch It and the
more you think about It.
That giant globe Is, perhaps. e
world in the making. One indi-
cation is its relative lack Of
density. It is 1900 times larger
than our globe, but weighs only
3l8 times more. It must be
mass Of hot gases and metallic
yapors. 1t Is no doubt slowly
cooling and condensing.
It's life as a world, In our
sense OF q world, Is yet before II.
II must first become rigid within;
it must be clothed with q cool
permanent habitable crust; IT
must acquire a placid atmosphere

And then what a world It win
be! Contracted to the average
density OF the earth, 1t viii still
be some 1900 miles in diameter.
1t could contain continents and
oceans relatively more than forty
times as large as ours. But It's
surface would probably be
smoother than the earth's, while
the force OF gravity upon it
would be much greater. Because
Of this the inhabitants might be
smaller than we are, which would
serve to multiply their number
as compared with those Of the
earth.
They would have & much
fainter sunlight and lower degree
of solar heat than we get, but
that could be compensated by
the extent and composition of
their atmosphere.
Another very vivid indication
that Jupiter is not yet rigid

taking place on It's variegated
surface. Its rotation is so swift
that It can be seen in an hours
watching. Notwithstanding its
enormous size, Jupiter makes a
whole turn on its axis in less
than ten hours!
