Striking Similarity Between the Two Planets as Places of Residence. While watching these graceful windings of the planet we naturally inquire as to its real condition, says a writer in Chambers’ Journal, Readers are familiar with the idea that it is a world like our own earth, traveling in a smaller but otherwise almost similar orbit around the sun. On more minute inquiry we find that the likeness between it and our earth is in some points very great—greater, in fact, than in the case of any other planet. In the fundamental element of size they are almost alike, our earth being 7,900 miles in diameter and Venus 7,500. The force of gravity on the surface of the lat- ter is very nearly nine-tenths of what it is with us. Its density is almost the same frac- tion of that of the earth. These facts show that if transported to the surface of Venus we should feel more at home,so far as some essential features of experience are con- cerned, than on any other planet known to us. We should weigh just about nine-tenths of our present weight, and should find distances bear- ug much the same ratio to our muscular power of walking that they do in this world; while in all probability the surface rocks and earth, if such be formed there, would be compacted and constructed like those we daily see around us. ‘This would not be the case on planets so much *maller than the earth, as M-rcury or Mars, or * much larger, as Jupiter, Saturn or Ni 5 Agam, the year on Venus would be about days in length, jood deal more like what we have ou th than is the case cueny other planet. In the length of the day we should find a still more homelike experience, & the difference would be imperceptible except ‘careful observation. Venus rotates in 23: minutes 4 seconds, The day, of course, de- pends a little on the motion of the sun in the sky, but the difference between this as seen on our earth and from Venus would not apprecia- biy atfect the similarity of the days in each. ‘These hkenesses to the length of ourday and Year and to our world’s density would cause a similarity, in all probability, in the important Matters of mountain form and of vegetation. STEALING FROM JUGGERNAUT. A Curious Yarn Told by an Indian Army Officer. Letterto the Times of India, The true and tragic tale which Iam about to relate was told to me many years ago by @ dis- tinguished officer of the {Madras army. The facts have never appeared in any newspaper, nor are they to be found in any of the police records of the Presidency. For obvious reasons the names have been altered; but to this day by the camp fires of the great festival held every year is told with bated breath and listened to with rapt attention the terrible tale of the jewels of Juggernaut and of the vengeance of the great god. “Many years ago,” said my friend, “I was quartered at Fuzarabed. an important military station about one hundred and fifty miles from the Madras coast. There were a large number of troops there of all descriptions, and cer- tainly for half the year the life we all led was gay and high enough. “Unfortunately, at the time I was there gam- bling and betting were much in vogue, and many men plunged and came to grief ‘over their debts of honor. Of all that gay company nobody was more popular and better liked by both men and women than young Fitzroy; but, unfortunately, he lost money at the races, tried to recover himself at the whist table, but failed, ‘ot into the hands of the Marwarees and got THE CENSUS OF 1890. Some of the Wonderful Changes it will Reveal. From the Bankers’ Magazine. ‘The census of 1890 will reveal many wonder- fal changes. The central line of will be much nearer the Mississippi river than it was ten years ago. A series of maps like those contained in the last census, of gradations in color, to indicate the changes in density of population, wealth, health and other important facts, will present a curious contrast with the maps that we now have for the census of 1880, or that of 1870. Over 16,000,000 acres of land were sold in the last fiscal year under the operation of the homestead and timber culture law. More than 124,000,000 of acres have been settled in the last eight years, representing a larger area than the states of Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Michigan. The greatest changes have been made in the northwestern group of states and territories, comprising Dakotm, Nebraska, Minnesota, Wy- oming, and Montana, where nearly 60,000.000 of acres have been settled in the last eight P Fai ears D.

In the southwestern group, comprising ansas, Colorado, Missouri, and New Mexico, nea ly 30,000,000 of acres have been occupied. On the Pacific coast 19.000,000 of acres more have been settled, and 13,000,000 of acres must be added for the southern states on both sides of the Mississippi. Along the Pacific roads 13,000,000 of acres have been opened since the last census, In other words, the government Asx Your Grocer For leeper and deeper into the mire of debt. You could see by his careworn and troubled ex- pression of face that the poor young fellow was in a realbad way. I was not surprised, then, when one day he came to me and said: jajor, Tm done for. I’m utterly broke. I can’t get any more money in the bazaar, and they'll run me in unless I can get away for a bit. I must get to England and see if I can raise the wind there, but goodness knows,’ said the young fellow bitterly, thowIcan dare ask my poor old governor. Major,’ continued he. ‘I must get away; it’s simply killing me. You were a great friend of my father and promised to help me. I wish I had stuck to your advice, but it's too late now. Will you come away with me? Give out that we have taken ten days’ leave for some shooting, and see me down to the coast. If L go off alone I shall be stopped by those cursed Marwarees.” “After some hesitation I agreed. He sent in his application for leave to Europe on private affairs, and I gave out that I was going on a ten days’ shooting expedition. A week later, with a couple of tongas, we had started on our long and wearying journey to the coast, where my poor young friend hoped to pick up a steamer to take him to Europe. On the second day out we met crowds of people tramping along—men, women and children—and the next day still greatercrowds. In reply to our in- quiries we were told that they were returning from the great festival of Juggerraut, held at Puri, now only some three days’ journey from where we were. ‘The tongawallah kept us inter- ested with a graphic description of the festival and of the great god, which was especially re- markable for the wonderful jewels it posseased two emerald eyes of inestimable value, its lips formed of the finest rubies in the world, and a necklace of priceless pearls. “The sun was sinking as at last we neared the town of Puri. and we could see the pinnacles of the temples rise above the trees which sur- rounded the place. Half a mile the other side of the town stood the Travelers’ Bungalow, where we intended putting up for the night! During the last twenty-four hours my young companion had kept silence, and was inoody and almost sullea whenever I tried to rouse him. Amore uncomfortable meal I never ate than the dinner which was served up to us that evening. and I was quite thankful when the poor lad said he was dead beat and would go off to bed. My own room was on the other side of the bungalow, and 1 took my pipe and sat smok- ing in the veranda. Tho moon was just rising, when I thought I saw the figure of a European stealing along the wall of the compound. », I thought, and wondered what other European could be here at the same time. An idea struck me, and I went across to my com- anion’s room. There was nobody in it; the ed was undisturbed, I threw down my pipe and rushed out into the moonlicht. “A few seconds later I was out in the road, ned i ctively in the direction of the the road I soon came to asandy lane which went outside the village walls in the direction of the temples, their pin- nacles standing ont clear and distinct in the moonlight. In the distance I thought I saw the figure of my poor lad, but soon the turnings and twistings of the lane with its thick cactus hedges on each side shut him out from my view. Ina few minutes I was close by the big temple compound. Running up to the wail I looked over, and this is what I saw: An enormous conrtyard of paved stone, on which were lying a number of priests, their white garments wrapped round their heads and bodies. In the background was placed temple after temple, but in the center stood one solitary shrine raised on three sepa- rate flights of steps, and inside I could see ihe great black god raised on three other smaller flights of colored marble steps. The moon- beams shone directly on the god and lit up th emerald eyes and ruby lips, while the pear! necklace glowed on his huge black bosom. Not a sound was to be heard except some distant tom-toming on the other end of the town. The festival was over and Puri had lapsed into sol- emn silence. To my unutterable horror I saw my companion walking right across the court- yard. “Not a living creature moved, until a parian dog rose up from near the wall. gave one howl, and then siunk away and crouched down again. Still no one stirred. My tongue clove to the roof of my mouth. I dared not shout even if I could have raised my voice. A ghastly horror took hold of me as the idea struck me that in his madness my poor friend intended to save his honor by the greater dishonor of robbing the idol. Speechless, I saw him mount step after . and the next moment I saw him enter the sacred shrine across the threshold of which no other foot but that of tae Brahmin has ever passed. Nine steps led up to the s0d—one, two, three, four, five, six. He paused. T tried to shout, but no sound would col He raised his hand as if to tear off the pearl necklace. It was still above his reach, is foot then touched the seventh. Can I ever forget the sight? In the moonlight flashed out two arms covered with a hundred—nay, two hundred—daggers and clasped the daring youth to the black god’s breast. At the same moment the sound of a gong broke the stillness of the night, and in one moment the priests had cast off their coverings and were rushing to the shrine. Two minutes later I saw the amazed and horrified priests carrying out the lifeless body of the dishonored Englishman, and I turned and fi —— see. Spring Smiles.
