surpassing the most dazzling dream of
imagination. This in what Professor
John Uri Lloyd has done in that strange
hook. “Etldorpha; the End of Earth."
Professor Lloyd Is a chemist and phys-
icist and among the most distinguished
men of his profession. For more than
20 years he has studied quietly while he
worked. experimented and thought.
One of the results In the book ”Eti—
dorpha," which name Is merely “Aph-
rodite" spelled backward.
It records the journeyings of a man
who. for revealing the communion and
usages of a secret order. In doomed to
wander nptm and in the earth. descend
ing into its depths. to its very cutter.
and drawingtherefrom knowledge hith-
orto undiscovered by mortal man. Pro-
fessor Lloyd takes universally accepted
facts and uses them as weapons and argu-
ments to show that the conclusions
hitherto drawn from them by scientific
on are often diametrically wrong.
One of the strangest experiments in
the volume is that showing how a man
may see his own brain. that. too, with-
out the help of any Roentgen X ray. It
is an experiment which any man may
make for himself and be convinced.
One theory put forth by the sage who
has been in the bowels of the earth and
seen unrevealcd things is that matter is
merely retarded motion. The sage takes
an illustration in shower of bullets mov-
ing rapidly. Nothing can be more solid
than bullets. They move faster and
faster. They emit a singing sound.
Faster and faster yt-t. They shine with
a dull rod glow. Still faster on they fly.
The dull rcd changes to white. The
flying bullets are at white heat. Faster
still. and faster. Bound, heat and light
have all disappeared. The solids are
disintegrated by their fearful speed.
They break into molecules, the mole-
cules into atoms. Next they arogaseous.
then uothingness, nothing but pure
force and energy. Reverse the process,
think backward over the roads the bu!-
lets came and you get solid. hard, heavy
matter again.
The engravings in the volume are of
exquisite quality. but as weird and un-
earthly as the story itself. illustrating it
well. No picture seen in a hasliccsh
dream over exceeded in strangeness the
scenes that represent the nightmare
drunkard’s cavern which the wanderer
found hundreds of miles underneath the
earth crust.
We find here that just plain, cold sci-
once has an occultism of its own as
marvelous as any fakir of the orient evm
juggled with the senses of man to pro-
dupe.
The wanderer is pitched from one ex-
treme to another and driven through one
wild experience after another. The les—
son he was to learn is expressed perhaps
at the close in these questions of his
guide:
“Have you accepted that whatever
seems to ho is not and that that which
seems not to be is? Have you learned
that facts are fallacies and physicpl
existence it delusion? Do you accept that
material bliss is, impossible, and that
while humanity is working toward the
undiscovcrcd land man is not, cannot be
satisfied 'r’ " ,
“Yes," I said, "I admit anything,
everything. ”
Finally. Professor Lloyd’s sage, in
spite of knowing as much science as any
man upon the earth and of having dived
down to the center of the earth besides.
still has the honor to believe in God
and is old fashioned enough to admit he
has a soul. ‘
One point made by Colonel Carroll
D. Wright in a late paper should be
noted. He says we ought now to pro-
pare for taking the census of 1900, es-
pecially m‘ the matter of having certain
lized nations. For this purpose we need
the active co-operation of other nations.
It is none too soon to make out the list of
international inquiries and to bring
them to the attention of other govern-
ments with the view to have them adopt
these inquiries in their own census lists.
If such an international census can be
taken, and it can, it will throw much
needed light on various sociological prob.
lems.
It is gratifying to Mr. William Wal-'
dorf Astor's fellow countrymen to find
there is still a spark of American feel-
ing in his soul. It would indeed ill be-
come a citizen of the United States
whose immense fortune was all made in
America, and whose colossal income is
still drawn from his native land, to per-
mit constant sneers at the United States
in a paper which is supported by Amer-
ican money.
Attacking the financial resources of
Spain rather than her army seems to be
the war policy of the patriot Gomez.
and it is amusterly one. When Sherman
destroyed all the Confederate supplies
he could and burned corn and cotton
fields, he worked in the way to end the
war most quickly. “It is cruel,” he
said, ”but war itself is cruelty."
Kaiser Wilhelm has been awfully in-
sulted. A dreadfuivillain fired a pack-
age of newspapers at him, and it hit him
on the shoulder. Well. that is what a
public man must expect when he will
not allow newspapers to attack him in
thelegitimute way. -
