Some Mysteries to AVhleli Men Hare ot Gained n Clew. Prof. Simon Newcomb,' in Harper's Magazine. When the number nnd violence of magnetic storms are recorded and compared it is found that they correspond to the spots on the sun and go through the 6arae period of eleven years. The conclusion seems almost inevitable: Magnetic storms are due to some emanation sent out by the sun, which arises from the same cause that produces tho epots. This emanation does not go on incessantly, but only In an occasional way, as storms follow each other on the earth. "What is it? Every attempt to detect it has been in vain. Professor Hale, at the Yerkes Observatory, has had in operation from time to time for several years his ingenious spectrohellograph, which photographs the sun by a single ray of the spectrum. This instrument shows that violent actions are going on in the sun, which ordinary observation would never lead us to suspect. Rut it has failed to show with certainty any peculiar emanation at the time of n magnetic storm or anything connected with such a storm. A mystery which seems yet more impenetrable is associated with the so-callod new stars which blaze forth from time to time. These offer to our sight the most astounding phenomena ever presented to the physical philosopher. One hundred years ago such objects offered no mystery. There was no reason to suppose that the creator of the universe had ceased Ills functions; and, continuing them, it was perfectly natural that He should be making continual additions to the universe of stars. But the Idea thaUthese objects are really new creations made out of nothing is contrary to all our modern ideas and not in accord with the observed facts. Granting the possibility of a really new star If such an object were created it would be destined to take its place among the other stars as a permanent member of the universe. Instead of this such objects invariably fade away, after a few months, and are changed into something very like an ordinary nebula. A question of transcendent Interest la that of the cause of these outbursts. It cannot be said that science has, up to the present time, been able to offer any suggestions not open to question.

Lecky's histories never enjoyed the wide popularity which was obtained by Macaulay's: but for the ntudent the late Mr. Lecky s volumes are an. inex haustible mine. His style la the very on poslte of that of the brilliant writer with whom he was most compared, but for Im partiality and carefulness of statement his "History of England in the Eighteenth Century" stands head nnd shoulders above that of Macaulay s History of England under the Whig obligarchy. Except in a few passages in his Irish history, where Mr. I-iecky's Irish national- predilections nnd the intensely controversial character of the subject warped his judgment, the absolute fairness of his writings is beyond reproach.

It was an object lesson in the real meaning of .democracy in this country for them to learn that the son of the laborer had equal chances with any other one day to be the President of the Unittd States himself.
