WHAT IS GRAVITATION?
Some Examples That Seem to Answer the
Weighty Question.
Two men at antipodes on the earth’s
surface are drawn directly toward each
other. Each is at the apex of a cone of
the other. These cones interlock at th''
earth’s center and are there equal, but
the greater part of the mass of each
cone and consequently the greater mass
of gravity holding each to his place is
past the center of the earth and culmi
nates at the feet of the other.
Every point of the earth’s surface
pulls in a straight line through the
center of the earth, not stopping at it;
losing part of the pound in proportion
as it approaches the center; then, pass
ing, regaining it again in proportion as
it approaches the opposite surface. So
that half way past the center the pound
which at the center was nothing has
now become a half pound, and at the
antipodal surface a pound again.
Make the center of the earth the com
mon apex of an indefinite number of
cones radiating to the surface. Accord
ing to mass, gravity pulls from the cen
ter, and the center is again the point of
nugation.
If gravity is an active essence pro
duced by molecular motion, if being a
living essence, it is therefore a perish
able one, it follows that in a conglom
erate mass as the earth, some substances
will probably exhaust sooner than oth
ers by reason of expiration of molecular
activity, if that be its producer, or from
other or any cause. Being an active ex
pending force, it must have a producer,
and that producer must have supplies of
force producing matter. These supplies,
however great, must exhaust. Differ
ent qualities of matter may contain this
force producing quality in differing de
grees and qualities. If so, the minor
will sooner exhaust. A feather, a leaden
ball and a dry stick will fall through
space to our atmosphere with equal
speed because their atoms and the atoms ,
of the earth mutually attract each oth
er regardless of shape or size. Gravity
is atomic, and every atom is the equal
of every other atom, no matter how
diffuse or how concrete the mass of the ,
object of which they are parts. But ,
the dry stick may have lost its active j
principle—gravity. Its essence produc
ing principles may have been exhausted. ;
Nevertheless it would be grasped by the
overwhelming gravity of the earth and
brought down in company with its fel
lows.
Gravity pulls laterally as well as per
pendicularly. The weight of the earth
has been calculated from the pull of a
mountain on a plumb line.
A person standing in a narrow can
yon, with walls towering hundreds or
thousands of feet above him on either
side, has much better footing than if
on the pinnacle of a monument. In one
case he is ield up by lateral gravity.
In the other he is without support.—R.

Rockmart, Ga., January 7.—Last Sai

iams, became suspicious of a steady
stream of negroes and some whites that
wended their way towaids a certaiu por
tion of the town. He decided to investi
and cautiously creeping around the cor
ner of the Christian church found a blind
tiger in full blast.
He promptly arrested the two parties
who gave their names as Hutchinson and
Little from Taylorsville. Sunday morn
ing a brother of the former came to the
city and went on a $lO bond for the ap
pearance of each in the police court

Queer Way. ®f the Toad.
Paternal affection is not perhaps the
precise emotion that we should be dis
posed to look for in the cold blooded
frog. But the Surinam toad appears to
exhibit this praiseworthy attitude of
mind toward his numerous progeny
When his mate lays her eggs, the solicit
ous father p’aces them carefully upon
her back, where in due time their pres
ence causes an irritation that produces
numerous small holes, into which the
eggs forthwith drop. In these cells,
which, from mutual pressure, get to be
hexagonal, like honeycomb, the young
frogs are finally hatched, and for a bit
scramble abo- t their mother’s back, hid
ing in theii nurseries when danger
threatens.—l andon News.
clever Dog:.
Mr. Stacy Marks’ anecdote of the
money finding dog, which he attributes
to Landseer, is a very prince among all
stories of the kind. The dog’s master,
in the presence of a skeptical friend, hid
a £5 note in the bole of a tree when the
dog was paying him no attention. “Go,
fetch!” he said, some time afterward,
while returning by another road, with
out further explanation.
The dog trotted off, and it was a few
hours before he joined the two at home.
As there wer-» no signs of a note, the
skeptical friend grew satirical. But the
host opened the dog’s mouth, and 5 sov
ereigns were concealed under his tongue.
He had found the note, been to the bank
er’s and exchanged it for gold.—Spec

Democrats May as Well Give Up All Hope

Washington, Jan. 7.—A meeting of

all the members present except Messrs.
Washburn, Cullom and Dolph.
Full discussion was had, but they
were unable to agree upon any plan
that would enable the Democrats to
make any change in the existing tariff
law.
The failure of the committee to agree
is equivalent, one of its members said,
to notification to the Democrats that
they might as well abandon all hope.
