LEAPED INTO NIAGARA. Nervy Feat of Robert Leech to Cele brate Dominion Day. More than two thousand peopk who had gathered ot Niagara Falls on Dominion Day witnessed a sight never before seen at Niagara.

It was just 1.10 o'clock when Leech sprang out from the railing of the bridge and Sr song towards the current 200 -- para- c 8 meal 4 nd in less than a half minute he had made the descent and he struck thy water with a softness that hardly caused a splash.

The Way This Filmy Dust Train I: Tossed About by the Sun No bridal vell was ever so filmy us n comet's tail. Hundreds of cublie wiles of that wonderful appendage are out- welghed by a jarful of air. By means of the spectroscope we have magically transported this fairy plume to our laboratories and have discovered that {It Is akin to the blue flame of our gus stoves;.for the gas by which we cook and the delicate of a comet both consist of com- binations of hydrogen and carbon, 'ap- propriately called by chemists "bydro- carbons." When it first appears in the heavens, far removed from the sun, a comet fs a tailless blotch of light. As a comet swims on toward the sun the hydrocarbons of the tail split up under the increasing beat into by- drogen gas and hydrocarbons of a higher boiling point With a still closer approach to the sun, these more resistant hydrocarbons eventually yield to the increasing beat and are decom- posed in the form of soot. Interplanetary space is airless; hence the soot canuot burn. It must pursue the comet in the form of a dust traln The particles constituting that train are small enough to be toyed with br the pressure of sunlight. No matter where the comet may be In its orbit, whether it bas just entered the solar system or is speeding away, that plume Js inevitably tossed away from the sun, just as If a mighty wind were blowing it from the central Ju- minary. The appendage of shining dust is the symbol of the triumph of light over solar gravitation. THE PLANET JUPITER. What the Man of Science Has to Say About Its Wonders. The jolly Jovians are sald to be real- ities and not myths. Not only are there sald to be inhabitants on Jupiter, but also on some of his moons, in the midst of which the vast planet, 1,300 times the size of the earth, spins at such tremendous speed that it cnuses nround the equator a furious wind that blows perpetually at the rate of 230 miles an bour. Those who believe in the Jovian say that bis belght runs from fifty to fifty-five feet and that hie exists for about 800 to 1,000 of eurth years. The Jupiter year, bow- ever, consists of 144 months. The ocenus of Jupiter, torn Into fury by the hurricanes, would pay no attention to one- moon such as moves the tides of our earth, and It takes no fewer than five of these satellites to perform this work for Jupiter. They travel at vn rious rates of speed, some flying close to Jupiter's surface, others far off. They have atmospberes like ours on earth, and a moonlight on Jupiter is {indecd a glorious sight. for these moons have a variety of color; two are blue, one {s yellow, and one red. Jupl- ter needs all her moons at night for INumination, for without them ber five hours of darkness would be black in- deed. So distant is the sun that brond daylight 1s hardly brighter than twi- light on earth, and one Jone moon would not reflect enough of the sun's rays to guide the Jovian footsteps, e Human Touch.
