If we accept thin as truth It necessarily follows that hc center of attraction or gravitation must lie the center of the ?arth; that Is., material bodies gravitate owafd Jhut .common center. Hence, if w were to suspend two plumb lines from any given distance from the' earth's surface say. for instance, from the top of the Masonic Temple to the floor, the weights att tcl i d tu the lower ends of the plumb lines would be clo'uer to gether -than are the oitier ends .qf" the. lines at the point from whlch-'they are suspended. Now what are the facts? Such an experiment has been made at the Tamarack mines In t'alumet. Mich., where there.are u number of shafts ex tending 4.000 feel below the surface of the earth. In these shafts mining experts suspended two plumb lines almost the entire length and mole accurate meas urementH at tin point of suspension anil at the 'lower ends of the lines. TO (heir surprise t'n-y found that the Weights attached to the lower ends were farther ssVart than the other ends of the lines. oilier experiments have been made which indicate that the basis of tbe t'opernlcan system, the form of the earth, may possibly be entirely dif ferent from what we have, been taught.

A COURTEOUS BOMBARD ME KT. (New York Kvenlng Post.) .We now know Why "the Venezuelan war vessels Were sailed by the allied forces of Germany and England It was done "to secure, "ordinary courtesy." So k Wo twlerrrnly stated In the ultimatum of tin two commodores, which preceded the shelling Of the forts at Puerto Cabello on Baturdaj-. After that, we may expect to he tf.ld that the bombardr ment itself was only a delicate atten tion. The astonishing naval command ers who, in the way of ordinary courtesy, seize the fleet of a nation with which they are at peace, would be capable of demolishing a fort as a' proof that they were 1ie very pink of politeness.

Keller, president of jn Piiila delphia publishing house, which Is pre paring to issue a remarkable edition de luxe of President Roosevelt's writings, (had a very interesting experience in ob taining Mr. Kooseveit s consent to the publication. This experience is related in the New York Herald. Air. Keller became oonvinced toward the close of the Spanish-American War that the then Colonel Roosevelt would be a central figure in American politics. Ha started for Cuba, but missed the colonel, who was then on his way to Mojitauk Point. ' Hastening back to Washington, Mr. Keller .procured puss through from Secretary of War Alger, and set put for Monta.uk. He tried to get to Colonel Roosevelt at 6 o'clock in the morning, and was arrested. K.plunatli'iis fol lowed, and he was conducted by the col onel in: person to his quarters. Mr. Keller unfolded his mission and was abruptly "turned down." Colonel Roosevelt said other - publishers who were his. personal friends owned the plates ft his books and he owed fealty to them. .. .f Mr. Keller explained that he did not mean to take the published books out of circulation, but to reissi," them In magnificent form for circulation by sub scription Finally the colonel exclaimed, "Hold on. I must think!" and Jumped on his horse and rode away at top speed. J'or more than' half an hour he galloped around, finally coming back to the tent. Before Mr. Keller could suy a word he was off again, and for another half hour he galloped over the hills. Returning with his animal snorting and pawing. Colonel Roosevelt threw himself from the saddle w..h the words. "All right. Ill do It." There was not a scrap of writing material nor a pen In the tent. Colonel Roosevelt produced a linen cuff and the publisher a fountain pen. It occurred to them that there' might be a blank sheet In Some of the letters lying un opened on the colonells camp bed. A small piece was found, and upon this, In duplicate, the contract was drawn up. Kach piece Is about the size f a visiting card. Negotiations with the puhltMiers to gain permission to republish Mr. Roose velt's Works covered more than two years. The royalties demanded and granted lire Immense, nnd Mr. Roosevelt will receive a very large portion of the amount. The enterprise will be com pleted Inside of the next nine months, nnd It is estimated that the Belling price of the euition will he very nearly a mil lion dollars. WHAT MARCOBtt HAS DOBTI. -VVba.bivctr.u ibfi Imperf ections lnjw I re leas u-iegcapliy. as. now. pjac.t IsitL lOne. cannot but admire the manner In which it has been brought to Its present degree of perfection by Marconi. Others had thought vaguely of the siime tiling, and had eve I devised apparatus huvireg the same object In view. " But they either abandoned the Idea temporarily or failed to work .out a solution of the difficulties which they encountered. Ho far us prac tical results are concerned. Marconi Is reully the pioneer In wireless telegraphy. He has gone ahead where others have halted. He has worked while other: ta in.. He has been peculiarly nva'' st a .1.1 lot Vent, rarely tilklng. xc-pt when attacked. So far as the public can Judge, he has borne himself In a manly fashion toward all rivals. To the suggestion that the Martinis of Solarl has been unfairly dealt with theri? are several effective answers. One Is furnished by the many honors bestowed on Marconi by the King of Italy during tin last few months, und another was afforded by the fact that Solarl himself accompanied Marconi all last summer and fall on board the Carlo Alberto. As for "priority of invention," If any one has anticipated the young Anglo-Italian the courts will no doubt ascertain the fact In due time. I'ntil the world has new light on the subject it will regard him as a gentleman as well as a genius, and accord him the chief glory of, making trans-oceanic wireless telegraphy possible. A8HF8 Or COLUMBUS. To the dead nothing matters, but It Is sincerely to be hoped that the ashes of Columbus nave ar last round a permanent resting place. The recent interment In Seville Cathedral was his fifth burial affer four posthumous voyages. Dying In 1508 In the monastery of St. Francis at Valhidolid, he was first burled there. Sev en .'-ears later he was dug up and car ried to a tomb In the Carthusian convent of I.as Cuevas. near Seville. In 153(1 the dying wish of Columbus was remembered and his corpse carried over sea and In terred In the Cathedral of St. Domingo, his first landing place In the new world. Here he lay in peace for two und a half centuries. Then half of the island being ceded to France it was proposed to trans fer his remains to Havana. St. Domingo objected, so the bones and ashes were divided, half remaining there and the other half being removed to and buried in the Cathedral of Santiago. On the Ameri can eoniiuest of Cuba in 18J8 this latter Ijalf was brought to Kurope. and Is now Interred at Seville. STRONGEST JAIL OH EARTH. Graham County Jail, nt Clifton. Ariz, Is unlrjue. It comprises four large apart ments hewn from the igolld quartz rock of a hillside. The entrance Is through a box-like vestibule, built of heavy mason ry and equipped with three sets of steel I gates. The tloor of the rock-bound Jail j is of .cement, and the prisonous arc con fined exclusively in the larger rooms. Some of the most desperate criminals on the Southwest border have b-en con fined In the Clifton Jail, and s solid and heavy are the barriers to ercape that no one there has ever attempted to break for. freedtiDx. ...Xbe. notorious. J.UacR. .Ja.sK, was there for months. The wall of quartz about the Jail Is fifteen feet thick. Clif ton Is one of the great copis-r mining camps In Arizona, and has the reputa tion of' being as depraved a community as yet exists on" the frontier of civili zation. In summer the mercury there frequently rises to 120 in the shade, and In the winter It never goes below 40 de grees. DEATH OF ASTOBXA NEWSPAPER (Astoria Budget.) John D.
