could afford to indulge in It but with a large Institution like that of the Ainerlcuu Museum of Natural Ulstorv in New York the proposition of making such a collection Is attended with less difficulty Now and then wealthy per sons of scientific tastes are prompted to make gifts of this sort Recently one of the most remarkable meteorites yet found became the property of the museum through the generosity of Mrs William E Dodge This twenty ton meteorite was discovered on the banks of the Tualatin river In Clackmas coun ty Ore In 1002 It Is known as the Willamette meteorite and Mrs Dodge is said to have paid for It 20000 the largest sum ever given for such a curi osity It will have a rival at the mu seum In the shape of the famous Peary meteorite also a very wonderful Imen and a curiosity which reached Its present abiding place only after the expenditure of much labor toward tho accomplishment of that end It came all the way from Bushman island near Greenland where Commander Robert E Peary first saw It In 1S9G Later he succeeded In getting it on board the good ship Hope and bringing it to the United States It weighs thirty six tons and is supposed to have fallen from the sky and struck the earth in the land of the Eskimos many yours ago perhaps before the advent of the human race upon the planet There is equal uncertainty as to when the Willamette meteorite started on its journey from an unknown part of the tjuiverse and found its course in space arrested by our own planet Rut it has had an interesting and unusual history since a mining prospector stumbled upon it about four yeara ago and mistook it at first for iron ore lie kept his discovery secret and tried to get possession of the land upon which the queer mineral lay Failing In this and becoming convinced that his find was of chief value as a curiosity he set about removing it from Its original ammi mimmm rowirrvtixf w 4 THE 20COO WTILAMETTE METEORITE location on to his own laud about a mile distant Special trucks had to be constructed but the feat was flnally accomplished and the whole proceed ing was kept as secret as possible But the owners of the land where the meteorite had fallen got wind of the fact that a queer looking object had been taken from their property and went to court about it The finder claimed that being a shooting star from some unknown region of space it should be considered the property of its discoverer The owners of the land where it had lain for perhaps millions of years claimed it as mineral prop erty whose ownership goes with the land The court ruled in their favor thereby establishing an important precedent for heavenly visitors that may in the future unwittingly hit the earth and about whose ownership liti gation may The Willamette me teorite Avas exhibited at the Lewis and Clark exposition at Portland In drag ging it to the exposition site twelve horses were required Both the Wil lamette and Peary meteorites furnish evidence in themselves of their origin outside the earth The Peary relic is as unyielding as a piece of steel plate and relic hunters who think to chip off pieces of it are disappointed The Eskimos by continuous hacking were able to knock off a piece now and then Astronomers are not agreed as to the distinction that should be drawn be tween meteors or shooting stars and meteorites though most scientists hold that there is no essential difference in their physical nature Both move with great velocity and before encounterintr the earth travel In orbits controlled by the gravitation of the sun There are two classes of meteorites the stony and the iron The Peary and the Wil lamette specimens are iron meteorites which are much more rare than the stony variety Iron usually constitutes about DO per cent of the mass of such meteorites though other metals are found in combination About one third of the chemical elements known in the laboratory have been found In meteor ites but no new element has yet been discovered In them Usually they have distinguishing markB by which they can be pretty accurately identified as J visitors from outside of our planet IHTWj rrmai v w i OItl Parliamentary Kitten It Is costly to be

dispersion of the seed If the fruit were of the same color as the leaves it might easily be passed over When the fruit or seed Is Incon spicuous through either the want of color or the small size dispersal is ef fected without the aid of animals as in the case of the dandelion whose seed Is carried about by the wind or of the balsam the seed of which is eject ed by a sort of spring The colored fruits such as the grape and the cher ry are furnished with succulent coats which provide food to birds who in their impatience often swallow the seeds or stones which may pass through the animals body without change Seeds may thus be conveyed not onSjy for considerable distances on land but also from continents to ocean ic Islands which may In this way ac quire a new vegetation Some London Clubs London has many curious clubs such as the Utopians whose motto is Serve God nnd be merry and the Froth Blowers whose members are said to be bound to curse and swear every time they enter tho club There are also many unregistered clubs which have no headquarters aud take out no licenses and there are also many clubs whose members are manifestly- drawn together by some common bond of sym pathy Among these the London Daily Express enumerates the following The Boz club admirers of Charles Dickens The 05 club amicability and the arts The Royalists guillotines and dia monds The Castaways club resigned naval officers The Lost Legion for empire pio neers Tlie AVayn of Madeira The people of Madeira are as harm less as their country The stranger meets with no snakes and need not fear mosquitoes neither has he to take any precautions against being molested In the most out of the way parts Everywhere civility politeness and pleasant faces will greet him The prices asked are grotesque often five times what will be finally accept ed Some find the absence of fixed prices abroad a great nuisance but the bargaining in Madeira is so good humored and can be made so amusing that the change of custom in this re spect Is rather refreshing A Picturesque Wcddingr An interesting wedding recently took place in England The bridegroom was a fireman and accordingly the mem bers of the local fire brigade attended the wedding They formed up outside the church and made an arch with their axes under which the bride and bridegroom walked Then the firemen drew the happy couple home in a car riage blowing their whistles as thev went tLrough the streets German Silver One of the oddities of nomenclature is that the combination of metals known as German silver contains no silver in its composition and is of Chi nese and not of German origin It was introduced into Europe by the Germans and for some time it was not generally known that they had simply borrowed it from the Chinese
