Yale
orU Newton, the famous
Dr. H e'+� A.
professor and the retiring president of the
American Association for the Advancement
of Science, chose the subject of Meteorites
to be the theme of his recent annual ad-
dress. He summed up all that we know,
and he touched upon the numerous theories
which scientific mon have advanced, but
which have not yet been confirmed by ob-
servation or reasoning,
All sorts of opinions have boon held about
the origin of meteors, It has been argued
that theycome from the sun, from the moon,
from the planets, from volcanoes on the
earth. 50110 have argued that they were
condensations of nebulous matter left over
soto speak, when the world was created.
Others have supposed they wore fragments

1' body—and we
to believe that anysolid
know that meteors arsolid—culd have
been projected from the sun to the vicinity
of our earth. It would necessarily have
been fused and vaporized in passing through
the enormously heated atmosphere of the
sun, and if itltacl escaped this peril it would,
under the law of gravitation, have shot up-
ward a certain distance and then fallen back
whence it carne. So far as we know, none
of the lunar volcanoes aro in a state of activ-
ity. Meteors cannot have been ejected from
terrestrial volcanoes, for none of them pos-
sess the energy necossery to throw a mass
of metal a hundred miles into the air. There
is no probability that they once formed part
of a lost planet ; it is difficult to perceive
how the materials of a planet, once gathered
together, could have been dispersed. After
reviewing all these various theories, Prof.
Newton comes to the conclusion that meteors,
fireballs, shooting stars, falling stars and
cornets all substantially belong to one class
—that they are aggregations of primitive
matter which formed' somewhere in the cold
of space.
The elements are known. Almost every
boy has picked up in the fields a curious
metallic stone, which he has taken home to
be told that it is a meteoric stone, which
the ancients called Jove's thunderbolt. This
stone, whkaaanalyzed, is found to consist of
silicon, mag esium, iron, nickel, a little oxy-
gen and a few other materials. Prof. New-
- ton supposes these elements to have been
floating about in the night of space and to
have conte together—how he does not ex-
plain. He assumes millions upon millions
of such aggregations to have taken place in
all parts of the universe. The aggregations
may be of any size ; from a great comet,
nearly as large as a planet, to a stone which
a boy can hold in his hand.
The moment a solid body came into ex-
istence by these aggregations it obeyed the
law of the universe and began to travel to-
ward the stir with cemetery veloci.y. It
must go round the central body of our
system and thence return whence it came,
moving in a parabolic orbit. It starts from
a point in space so cold that the severest
Arctic weather seems torrid in comparison,
but in the course of its appointed revolution,
when it approaches the sun, it passes through
a region whose heat glazes its surface and
gives to meteorites the shiny, wrinkled
aspect which the inside of an overworked

A NARROW ESCAPE.
TW/INTv-FIVE. SAILORS ESCAPE A IIORRITILII
FATih IN Til1t Aio rig.
A despatch from St. John's, Nfld.,
says.:—Tho fortunate interposition of the
Newfoundland whaling steamship Eagle
prevented a repetition of the horrors of
starvation and death so mournfully associ-
ated with the Greely Arctic expedition.
Tho Eagle arrived hero yesterday, and
brought 24 Peterhead whalemen, who
abandoned their vessel on the eastern side
of Davis Straits. Tho following account is
gleaend from the oflioors and ere v of the
lost whaler :
On the 13th of March the whaling strip
Catherine, Captain Benzie, well equipped
and manned with a crew of twenty-five men,
sailed from Peterhead, Scotland, for Cum-
berland, Gull, and Davis Straits to prosecute
whaling and sealing. On the voyage west-
ward as faas the neighborhoodhborhood of the fish-
ing ground st
rms and turbulent seas
char-
acterized the voyage. The ship rolled and
strained and labored heavily. Early in
May the Catherine rounded Capo Farewell
and was headed for Davis Straits:
The weather � unpropitious
ro a
le vas most uu itious
for the prosecution of the voyage, and no
work was accomplished down to September.
On the 30th of that month the Catherine
leaked so badly that it became necessary to
beach the ship, and accordingly (thew as
stranded on the eastern side of Davis
Straits. She had not been beached long be-
fore she fell over on her starboard side.
Under the impact of a heavy sea her bottom
and side were pierced and crushed by the
rocks of the reef and before evening she was
a complete wreck.
Meantime the boats were disengaged
from the wreck. Some provisions and
clothing, charts and other nautical instru-
ments were saved and placed in the boats
and a departure taken for the northward,
the most probable route to cross the home-
ward bound track of any late Scotch or
Newfoundland whalers. Two hundred
miles of rough water ware traversed by the
whalers with sails and oars. Ten days and
nights were occupied in compassing this
distance.
The crew suffered terribly from continued
exposure. Their clothing was meager, and
they had no fire. Their limbs were cramped
from being imprisoned in the small space
available in a little boat, and a very dismal
prospect loomed before then,. At length,
about sunset, Black Head Island was reach-
ed, and the whalers landed and hauled up
their boats on this island. There theyfound a
station house established and owned by Wil-
liams & Sons, of London. Itwas very spars -
ley provisioned, and was controlled by a
Russian named Frederick Sheermann, assist-
ed by a German gunner and an Italian cook.
Here the Peterhead whalers were treated a small quantity of iron -grey hair at the
with barbarous inhospitality, fortunately sides and back of his head, and a few hairs
rare among civilized men. The shipwrecked of the same color under his chin on the
sailors were denied shelter under the station neck. On the body was a pair of heavy
house roof. Their clothes, dripping with worsted black pants, lined throughout, two
sea spray, were left outside to freeze, and white shirts and an undershirt. The name
the fisher waifs were constrained to seek re- on the tag of the shirt was John. He had

maux who had pitched their camps for the four pockets outside, and a pair of No. 9

These warm-hearted people divided with pockets was a bone collar -button and asmall
the Peterhead whalers the meagre sleeping pocket book with a brass rim containing a
space of their wigwams and the warmth of satchel key, but'no money. His pants were
cannon wears after a long battle. What•ad-1
ventures it has on the way it is easy to con-
jecture. When it approaches within the at-
traction of one of the planets its course is
run. It cannot but obey the law of gravit-
ation. Down itmust come. As it enters
the atmosphere of a slant the friction is
generally more than it can bear ; it breaks
to pieces or fuses. Sometimes we see it fall
apart, what was one shooting star be-
comes two. Its light is almost invariably
extinguished at a considerable distance
from the earth, showing that its life ended
there.
Prof. Newton thinks that the meteors
we see are seldom further away from us
than 100 miles and seldom nearer than
thirty miles. Prof. Olmsted reckoned that
the great meteor which created such a scare
in the East twenty years ago, was over
2,000 miles away, and the meteor of 1885,
which was seen simultaneously in Pennsyl-
vania, New York and Western New Eng-
land and Canada, was supposed to be as
distant. But it is impossible to take ac-
curate astronomical observations of a
phenomenon which is unexpected and gener-
ally instantaneous ; it may be that Prof.
Newton is right.
According to the ordinary reckoning,
5,000 meteors fall on the earth every year,
the great bulk of them, of course, falling
into the sea. This ismere guesswork. The
data are entirely wanting on which to base
an estimate. The size of meteoric stones
which are preserved in museums varies
from a ton in weight to the size of a child's
msrb1e.
r1ri�(stones which do fall generally come
from fi�eballs or bolides, which are seen to
explode with a great noise and smoke.
The explosion is sometimes heard 100 miles
away, and the concussion of the au shakes
the whole region like an earthquake.
There is probably no general law on these
matters. Most of the meteorites that have

Some philosopher, arguing that life was
omnipresent, once raised tete question
whether meteor's anti aerolites could be in•
habited by a race of beings specially creat-
ed so as to be adapted to their conditions.

The Knights of Labor of Vancouver, 13.
C., at a recent meeting passed the following
resolution :—" That this assembly deems it
contrary to the spirit of our obligation and
the constitution of this Order to quietly
allow a renewal or increase of Mongolian
competition to citizen labor, and that we
pledge ourselves as men bound together by
knightly principles and obligation to do our
utmost to prevent the increase and to lessen
the grievance by an' active and persistent
action against all persons who continue to
encourage or employ Chinese. Committees
of conference have been appointed, who
have met and adopted plans to be submit-
ted to their respective assemblies. It is al-
so suggested that a public meeting be
called to give expressions of public opinion
in reference to the renting of a new brick
building on the corner of Carroll and Water
streets to a Chinese firm."
Tho body of a drowned man was found
washed ashore near Cobourg the other
morning. He was an elderly man of about
5 feet 9 inches in height, bald headed, with
their camp fires, their bear steaks, and their tied at the bottoms of the legs with twine,
seal and walrus blubber. Four clays passed and a rope around the waist. He has evi-
under these conditions. At length, after
much suspense and gloomy forebodings,
about noon on the 16th a welcome sail was
sighted. Signals were immediately hoisted
and the vessel proved to be the steamship
Eagle, of St. Johns, Trfld.
She bore down on the island, and in a
short time had transferred the whalers from
the shore to the ship. There were at the
time of the rescue not more than eight or
nine weeks' provisions to meet the demands
of the permanent residents, the Equimaux,
and the new contingency of whalers. The
Eagle was the last ship in the Arctic, and
without her providential interposition there
must have been a terrible loss of human life.
Landed yesterday from the Eagle, the ship-
wrecked whalers were comfortably lodged
by the shipping master at St. Johns.
