MILNERS'

THE MARTIAN PROBLEM.

C. W. S. writes in the Pall Mall Gorette! E will be remembered that in 1903 D Alfred Russel Wallace, the great biologis published a volume, entitled Man's Placa in the Univers," in which heattempted the more than atupendous task of showing tint the entire universe was created for the pro- duction of man, and exists for him: and that intelligent life is possible only on our earth. The thesis of Professor Perival Lowell, that Mars is inhabited by intelligent]. beings, has been disputed by many astroso- mere also, one of the most distinguished of whom lately referred to him sa, "a r Lowell." This "Mr Lowell" is a Doctor of: Laws, a Professor of Astronomy, fellow of many learned societies, American and Con tinental, Janssen wiedalist of the Astro mical Society.cf France, and also naplew of Mr James Russell Lowell, whose name is not yet forgotton. The point is worth noting for its obvious significato.

But it was further necessary to demonstrate the existence of water upon Murs; the indis- putable polar caps might be made of frozen carbonic aid, a view which Dr. Wallace gladly utilised in his book.
