Bcientlati Claim It Climate la Too Kultry for Human Beirut 'nhablt -Our Satellite la Also outiject to Great Extreme of Cold. Astronomers and scientists now tell us that the old popular Idea of the moon being a frigid body Is a mistake. On the contrary, they declare that the earth's satellite Is an Intensely hot body; so hot, In fact, that life as It is Itnown on the earth could not exist there. "The moon Ib so hot," says an atilclal of the United mates naval oni lervatory, "that no creature known to us could endure contact with her sur (ace and live. Nor Is this fact dltlicult to realize when we havo rellected a lit tle while. For Instance, we know that the surface of the moon Is exposed dur ing the long lunar day, a fortnight of iur tcrrostlal time, to tho rays of a iun fully as hot as that which gives us jur dally heat. With no attnosphero to temper the action of these rays not by Impeding their passago, but by bear ing aloft the cloud-veil which the sun raises from our oceans to form a pro tecting canopy for Us the surface of the moon must necessarily become In tensely hot even before tho rnlddlo of the lunar day. It is true that the absence of an at mosphere must causo tho moon's heat to be rapidly radiated away Into space. It is our atmosphere which retains our heat and acta In regulating our tem perature. Thus at the summits of lofty mountains, where tho atmosphere Is rare, notwithstanding the Intense heat of midday, so rapidly docs this heat pass away that snow forever crowns the mountain heights. Vet, although the nioon'o heat must pass away even more rapidly, this does not prevent the lieutlug of tho actual surface of that satellite any more thau tho rarity of tho air prevents the Aiplno traveler from feeling tho action of tho sun's di rect heat even when the air In shadow Is Icy cold. "Sir John Ilcrschcl long since point ed out that the moon's surfaco must bo heated at lunar midday or, rather, at the time of lunar mld-hent, correspond ing to about 2 o'clock In our after noonto a degree probably surpassing the heat of boiling water. "Not alone does the moon Itself pos sess this extreme heat, but It rellects a curtain amount thereof on the earth. And this Is not all; the moon gives out heat by which It has Itself been warm ed. Nor must these two effects of re llected nnd radiated heat bo confound- Tho distinction between them .may Illustrated In the following man ner: If an a bright summer day wu take a piece of smooth, but not to-) well-polished metal, nnd by means of It. Reflected the sun's light upon the facfa n sensation of hent will be experience jvvhlch Is reflected sun heat; but If we Kvalt, while still holding the metal as ilcscrlbcd, uutll It has becomo quite hot under the solar rays, we feel a Hcnsntlon of heat from tho mure prox imity of the plato to tho faco, even .when It Is held so as not to reflect sun Jieat. There can bo produced by this lixperlmeut first, reflected' heat alone )eforc the metal has grown hot; next, the heat which the metal gives out it sulf when warmed by the sun's rays; nnd lastly, tho two kinds of heat to gether, when the metal Is cnuscd to reflect sun heat and also (being held near the face) to give out n perceptlblo (luantlty.of Its own warmth. It is tho last stago of tho experiment which produces tho samo effect ns tho reflect ed nnd radiated heat of tho moon upon the earth's surf nee. "Hut wo must not think that the moon adds materially to tho heat of tho summer weather. The actual Increaso of temperature derived from the sil very orb can bo easily realized when wo consider that If the moon were ex actly as hot as boiling water we should receive from It Just as much heat as would bo derived from a small globe as hot as boiling water, " so placed as to preserve the sumo ratio of )lze nnd dlstanco as the moon does to the earth." TROGLODYTES OF AFRICA. Marnier, and Cuatoma Unchanged for Bcveral Centuries. If you want to be Introduced to tho slowest people In the world you must visit North Africa and make- your way across the scorching desert that separ ates from the rest of tho Inhabitants tit Africa the race kuown to tbo an cients ns the Troglodytes, from the Greek "troglols," a hole. They were glveu this name on account of the habit of living In holes in tho ground a habit that probably owes Its origin to tho fact that old Sol lu that quarter Is a very merciless old tyrant, and life above ground 1b scarcely bearable ex cept when tho sun has retired for the night. The Troglodytes are In the line of caravan travel, and are visited by these freight trains of tho African desert. No outside Influence has been ablo, however, to wean them from their an cient habits, their antique garb, and their peculiar manner of living. Bo far as Is known, the manners and customs of the Troglodytes have not changed since Illble times, nnd any one coming upon a group of theso people in the present day, and comparing their ap pearance with descriptions extant that some historians have regarded as fabu lous, will see that they are precisely the same now as they were many cen turies ago, A Troglodyte city is the most curious dwelling place In the world. From the exterior It presents the aspect of a Ilomaa circus. The habitations are built In layers one above the other, and form a circular wall with a single en trance from the outside. All the doors of the houses open on tho Interior of the circular city. Each habitation has a door and a window. To get to them you climb a flight of steps cut in the wall, which brings you to the lower layer of houses. If you wish to go higher you climb another pair of steps to the houses above, and from here to tho third row, if you are visiting some ono living on the top of the pile. The doors are all fastened with the most primitive lock, which Is turned by means of a wooden key. Besides providing protection from their enemy, the sun, the circular habi tations with the dead walls outside form a strong fortress to guard tho in habitants from the attacks of neighbor ing tribes. In theso more peaceful days, however, they have no such fear before them, and so they use tho walled city mostly for storing of crops, whilst they live In holes dug In the ground within tho walls, and frequently change their position In search of pas ture for the animals. The age of the cities 1b immense. Tho exact date when they were built is un known, but it Is believed that they antedate tho birth of Christ, The peoplo are peaceably disposed, In which phase of character they arc superior to most other natives of Northern Africa. They arc Intelligent and hard-working, tend ing their flocks and forming their land with patient energy. The approach to their country Is so difficult and danger ous, on account of the frightful gorges it Is necessary to traverse,, and the risk of being overcome by tbo deadly sirocco, thnt the Interesting people have been disturbed but llttlo by Euro, peans. Now that archeologlsts art turning their attention to tho ancient people, something more la being learn ed of them than was known heretofore. St. Paul Dispatch. LAW AS INTERPRETED. Signature to a paper by mark made by a person for the purpose of Identi fying himself as a party thereto Is held, In Flnley vs. Prcscott (Wis.), 47 L. It.

A. 277, to be lawful, although tho person assessed therefor had prevlbusly been assessed for part of tho cost of building the sewer. Probato of a will by a court having Jurisdiction of the matter Is held, In Chicago Title and Trust .Compauy vs. Brown (III.). 47 L. It. A. 708, not to be subject to collateral attack yearB after ward by a proceeding to annul It, mere ly because of the Incompetency of one of tho witnesses who attested It.

A charitable gift to n foreign city is upheld lu succession of Mcuulcr (La.), 4S u II. A. 77, under a treaty provision authorizing such gifts to cltlzoiiB of a foreign country, ami notwithstanding tho fact that wliec tho will took effect tho city hnd not obtained n necessary permit to tako the gift, and Its cnpnclty to tako It was suspended until tho per mit was obtained. A girl 17 yenrs of age, who enters a convent for tho purpose of becoming a nun without having obtained her par ents consent, Is held, In Prleto vs. St. Alphonsus Convent of Mercy (La.), 47 L. It. A. 030, to be subject to the claims of her parcuts, although she had been received In the convent on the supposl. tlon that she had obtained such con sent. Under such circumstances It was held that sho could be released by writ of habeas corpus, even -If tho girl wns willing nnd nnxlous to remain In tho convent nnd was under no actual re straint. Murphy's Intelligent pp, Murphy, when ho lived lu tho bush, always shared his blanket with tho pup, but when ho shifted to town ho hnd to break tho pup of Its old habit. First time ho caught It in bed he kicked It out. Noxt tlmo Toby heard hi m com Ing, and Jumped up quickly, but Mur phy was suspicious, put his hand on the bed and found It warm. Then thoro wns trouble for ono smnll dog. That day tho pup earnestly watched Mur phy cooling his dinner by blowing on It. Following day Murphy came homo at usual time, sneaked quietly up stairs, and observed the pup blowing on tho bed for all he was worth. That pup Is now In n circus, and Murphy is a gentleman the dog earns enough to keep 'em both. Sydney Bulletin. " Fed by Ante. It is certain that ants Intentionally sanction tho residence of certain In sects In their nests. This Is the case, for Instance, with the curious blind beetle, clavlger, which Is absolutely de pendent upon ants, as Mulley first pointed out It seems to have oven lost the power of feeding Itself, at any rnto It is habitually fed by tho ants, who supply It with nourishment as they do oue another.
