WY “Saturday Night” cited a number of cases or re- descrtbe wireless telegraphy and the remarkable passage in which Strada. the learned Jesuit historian. writing in 1624. also depicted ‘Man-ooni’s invention, In the third part or “Gulliver’s Trav- e15.” Swltt describes the two satellites of Mara. As the London “Spectator" points out, “when Swift wrote, astro- nomy had not advanced greatly beyond Huygens: contentment with the twelve bodiesâ€"cu planet- and six satellites- which made up the “perfect number’ of suspected that Mars had mo'ons mt; ' own. Thus Swift made a. very wild Ines. when he announced of the La.- putan philosophers: ‘They have like- wise discovered two lesser stars or satellites, which revolve about Mars. whereof the innermost is distant from space of ten hours, and the latter in twenty-one and a half.’ Not only were there no grounds for the prediction of two satellites. but such an estimate of their dbtance from the planet was un- precedented; it was as if our moon should ,‘be within twenty thousand miles of the earth. and rise and set twice or thrice in the twenty-four hours. Nothing could be more impro- hable. Yet in 1877 Professor Asap'n Hall, with the great Wiashi-ngton equa- torial. actually discovered two tiny satellites of Mars, whose distances from the planet are 1 1-2 and 3 1-2 dia- meters, whilst their periods are 71-2 and 30 hours respectively. The agree- ment with Swift’s guess is in the main so remarkable that it is hardly possible to ascribe it to mere accident; and yet these satellites are the merest points of light, which no telescope in existence before Her-schel's day could possibly have shown." Many other similar anticipattons are chronicled in the Philadelphda “Era.” We quote as ton'ows: “The law of gravitation was an- nounced by Newton 1n the year 1685. Had it not been foreseen by Shake- speare in 1609?

The Press says:- In November next by the best of ocean m amships, and at the most luxurious of American hotels. and on the finest of special trains, there is to be made out of England an invasion of the United States. At the personal expense of Al- fred Mosely this invading force is to be organized, maintained and transported. a force of 120 ieaders. iorty_ of them 1‘3 Invade the United States. conspicuous in the worm of educational afl'airs. forty more being men of auth- ority in the trade unions of Great Brit- sin. and forty more being capitalists. The visit will be prolonged until Janu- at y of next year, and when this company returns to England it is expected that tleir fellow-citizens will be enlightened as to those mystic influences which have made it possible for the United States to gain equal rank with other nations in world affairs and in many things pre- errirent rank. Mr. Mosely was one of the invited guests at the installation of Dr. Nicho- las Murray Butler as President of Col- umbia Unive sity last Saturday. He sat with the representative and dis- tinguished group. which, as a whole. was a composite representative of all the intellectual and material influences that lave made the United States what the nation is today. He was peculiarly im- pressed by the ceremony, and especially y the presence, in enthusiastic accord and sympathy. with .all that the election and installa‘tinn of. Dr. Butler means. of men of affairs. men of distinction in commerce. in manufacture, in applied science, and in finance. That was some- thing to which celebrations at English or European universities, of which Mr. Mosely has had knowledge, can ofl‘er no counterpart. In the presence and in the enthusiasm of these men he discm'o end one of the reasons why the United States has been and is now passing by unconscious promotion from the rear rank of nations to a place of suprem- acy. He was reminded of the attempt made by the Duke Qt DevoTlshire a. few years ago when one of the ancient and most fan ous of the English universities. find- ing itself in some pecuniary need, made appeals for help. The Duke undertook to raise a considerable fund, having in iz‘ind as much as $300,000, American money. But when he turned to the men of commerce he found them deaf. When he appealed to the financiers he discov- ered that they looked upon the univer- sity as something apart in all its influ- ences and scope from their vocation. When he approached the manufzwturers he learned that even Oxford with its venerable traditions was for them a mere incident '1) the national life. of Great .liritain. So that. having at last «cured a scanty $.30,Ui:~;, he Duke abandoned his undertaking. And Ml‘. Newly. am"; ‘9 had idg::ti‘.icd the vari- mts pers'imaiities prominent in finance and in all material activities who shared in the installation ceremonies of last Saturday, di<covered one of the reasons “by “Hunt and L.'211I1L.‘idge are, com- paratively speaking, dead, so far as their influence upon the prosperity and ad- vancement of Great Britain are con‘ cezned. Nor was he surprised when he was told that had an American prince of hranec been appealed to as the Duke (f Devonshire was some years ago, he would have, and many times in recent years he has within a day or a week or a Liief time, secured the hundreds of tlousands, and even millions, that the uriversity ncedeti. Columbia. itself had 1'! exlwrirnce of that kind _ last wra- l tcr. haps he wasmof a recent experience of Yale's young president. It seemed to Arthur liadley that there ought to be raised for Yale, so that administrative and other convenient buildings might be constructed, $1,000.000, and he hOped that it would be possible for him to an- nounce at the bi-ccntennial that this money had been pledged. He had not then learv l the art of approach, how- ever, or the manner by which rich men make up large funds. so that he began _- -1--- :o despair of SU('('(‘;:5. Then one day he met an alumnus of Yale. M.C.D. Bor- den. a man of wealth. and to him Mr. Borden said in efl'tct ; “You are not do- ing this the right way. What you want first is a nucleus of, say. $500,000, secur- ed from a few men, and when you have got that there will be no trouble about the rest.” Bug . vs; up. “But who is to form this nucleus 1” President Hadley asked; and Mr. Borden replied, “I will. I will begin it with $100,000. Tomorrow I will see Mr. Van- derbilt and one or two others.” And on the next day in less than five minutes’ chat with Frederick W. Vanderbilt Mr. Borden had secured his pledge of $100,. 000. Mr. Vanderbilt’s only comment be- ing, “It will give me great pleasure to do it,” and a day or two later two oth- ers were secured pledging a like amount, and at last James J. Hill. and thus Pres- ident Hadley had his nucleus of women. and it was a mere detail to secure the rest. . .. Such an experience. accordinglto Mr. Mosely’s View, would have been impos- sible in Great Britain. even for Oxford or for Cambridge, and these institutions staggering under land poverty and the indifference to them of the powerful men of material affairs in Great Britain cannot in Mr. Mosely’s view-or in that -9 «Mormon ndanrs. even though cannot in Mr. Mosely’s view-or in that of American educators. even though stimulated by the enuowmcuts. made pos- sible by the will of Cecil Rhodes, give to American youths that training. exper- ience, ard character which they may ob- tain at heme. and which they awed, it they are to be of service in their day and gemration. In fact. the American youth would probably do better were they to attend some of the universities in the greater cities of England, for some of the quickening'influcnces of modern times has been felt. in these institutions. Mr. Mosley might have bgen told-7pm.
