OMAILN, WEDNESDAY, JUI1 DO SunS CorpTRRT T Crash in | —_— Space? By GARRETT P, SERVISS, OIS Ay ! “What is to prevent the suns of space ! from running amuck and causing head on collisions, unleas somewhere in the | sreat immensity there is one mighty sun around which s woven a network of all the uni verses, each per- forming fts respec- tive function of a pertectly organized system Wwhich re- volves around this central body?'—L. B.. Chicago. 1t 18 probable that such encount- ers do occur, and one of the gener Iy accepted ex planations of new stars which from time to time arc seen to burst Into visibility s that they are the consequences of tre- mendous collistons in space. The planet- esimal hypothesis, which many astrono- | mers now regard as more eatistactory | than Laplace’s theory of the mode of origin of solar systems, i based upon| the calculated results of a near approach | of two suns, which, without actually | meeting n collision, would disrupt one | another by the enormous strain of their tidal attraction. According to this| theory the spiral nebula, of which many | thousands exist, are formed of the prod- icts of such disruption, and should be rezarded as new solar systems in process | of formation | We should not think of the universe as | resembling a piece of mechanism, like a | clock, in which everything revolves | smoothly and unchangeably, all parts | belng cogged together, so to speak, from center to circumference; but, rather, we e#hould think of it as like a living being. in which varlous parts are continually | decaying and being renewed. From our | narrow, humon point of view, it seems a | dreadful catastrophe for two mighty suns, | followed, perchance, each by its flock nf| abited wWorlds, to plunge together into maclstrom of flery destruction, but! looked at in a broader way, such inci-! dents are only the ordinary processes of a self-renewing svstem. [verything about us flatly contradicts such an assumption. Accidents, catas-| trephes, collisions, violent changes, vol- | canie explosions, earthquakes, affect the | animate and the inanimate world alike. | Plants and animals die, are consumed | and.are renewed; mountain chuins riso | nd, are worn down-again to sea level continents and oceans appear and disap- | pear, and, after sufficient time, “the! great globe itself shall dissolve, and leave not a wrack behind! e MLt She (Mrs. Jack Sprat shall we call her because she blundered in her luncheon-invitation, and asked can eat no fat?), the girl who hag a nightmare always entertaing the idea that there is a cen before her-—a double chin—whose crimson cheeks are \ her thin ped cream and delectable things beneath! friend to feast with her.
