"The Chinese student speaks of his own college as my very humble alma mater. He never boasts about it as an American does. He only bestows praise when he is referring to an institution that is a rival of his alma mater. "Teaching is rated much higher in the Stale of professions in China than ,it is in America.

Philadelphia, May 12. ?The earth was passing through the outer confines of the corona or exterior envelope of the sun one the night of March 22, when the inhabitants of the northern portion of the* United States witnessed the great display of the aurora borealis says Professor Monroe B. Snyder director of the Philadelphia observatory. The astronomer, in a statement to the Associated Press, says that the "universal force of radioaction" on the sun "huried the final atoms of an explosion, namely electrified hydrogen and probably helium, straight to the earth." Professor Snyder's observations follow: "The recent aurora is a fine indication of the explosive disintegiation which takeB place at the surface of the sun and is responsible for its prominences, spots and corona. Our discovery of the magnitude and precise atomic order of the explosion of the chemical elements in the sun, and in the stars generally, leads to conceptions of the aurora and the accompanying magnetic and electric storms which are beyond any doubt as to their validity. "During the hours o^fche night of March 22 the earth a very true sense, arfd to the delight of us all passing through the outer confines of the solar corona. The same universal force of radioaction which disintegrates the atoms in stupendous localized Krakatoas, or Mont Pelees, on tV> sun, and produces the hydrogen of tne coronal streams, then also hurled the final atoms of that explosion, namely, electrified hydrogen, and probably helium, straight to the earth. "Only within about a month of the equinox, vernal, or autumnal, is the earth is an orbital position to be thus successfully bombareaed. The moving electric hydrogen is of course, an electric current and ii therefore carried toward the poles of the earth and round them with earth's magnetic foroes. The fascinating colors of the atirora. ajW due to thq changing electee excitation of the ' hydrogen asm other gmSea. The theory ol' Ve! (Card, the jjwedish physicist, whiclt I has explained the wonderful curtain ed Auroras as due to hydrogen particles, of positive electric charge, 'is now shown to be unquestionably true in that it is but a logical result of the explosive eruption of the electric hydrogen from the suiv. "The well-known delay or lag in time, between the solar eruption and the appearance of the magnetic ' storm and accompanying aurora on J the earth, of about forty-five hours, is due to the time taken for the hydrogen atoms to travel from the sun to the earth. The Tate of travel is ! about 575 miles per second, or somej what in excess of the rate of the upj ward movement of the gases in some I of the great solar prominences. "The numerous and complex details of the auroral phenomena are found thua to receive, for the first time reasonable explanation. Additional j confirmation of this explanation is I given by the fact that our discoveries j also prove that all the elemental atoms, so wonderfully explosive ih the stars, are structural products <?f hy| drogen."

I Gadsden, Ala., May 9.?A fine! gold watch ticking incessantly i "moonshine, moonshine, moonshine," was disowned in feaeral court here. The watch was found by federal agents in a pair of overalls which hung close to a moonshine 3tiil that J they raided. Two men fled to the. woods at the approach of the reve-' nuers. On the case were engraved initials corresponding to those of Mino Washburn, and it was said on the back of it was a photograph of Mrs. Washburn. On the witness stand however1 Washburtf said that he never saw the watch and certainly did not own it.1 But the accusing talk of the watch brought about his conviction. ? i ^tart Early andI^ight with fKeacK Base Ball Goods^ Best on the jBf Diamond ,qj We carry the line ^ THAT MAKES FAMOUS PLAYERS THE UNION HARWARI COMPANY, Sporting Goods, UNION.
