LIFE ON MARS.
A PROFESSOR’S OBSERVATIONS. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received June 12, 5.5 p.m. New York, June 11. American observers announce that Mars, on the 10th, passed through the point of her orbit directly opposite the sun from the earth. On the 18th it will be closer to the earth by several million miles than at any time, since 1909. Professor Slipper, who is conducting the observations, asserts that Mars shows the existence of certain essentials of life. The water and atmosphere temperature are above freezing point. He believes it amply proved that the markings, which show darker in summer, suggest life in the form of vegetation.
