Yet, there is one little point on which I am not altogether clear, nd if not out of order, would respectfully ask for a littie more light. Mr. Hoge says “a ball passing into a hole through the earth has less and less ap- parent weight until it reaches the center, where it“has no weight, because the force of gravity being equal upon it in all dire tions, is balanced in al} directions, and the ball remains at rest there, if placed there without motion or momentum within Kself. to carry it away from there. ‘Thea he illustrates the point he desires to make by referring to the pendulum, which, having been raised to a horizontal po ton, and then released, swings with con- stantly increased velocity to the center of its oscillation and with constanily de. creased velocity to the other end of its half circle motion from that center. In other words, that it is obeying the iaw of falling bodies in falling toward the earth store of G. M.

Holbrook’s building is utterly destroyed, as is the Masonic Hall, which on the upper floor. From Holbrook’s the fire con- tinued to the large dry goods establishment of C. Ross & Co.
