TIE CHAMPION TELESCOPE OF
THE WORLD.

The people of California are peculiar
i'll this, that they must have an inor-
dinate desire Il always be al the top OF
the heap. To excel i'll everything
taken hold Of i'll earnest is their reli-
gion. II is not sufficient that they pro-
duce the largest squa>he> in the world.
but they must also bear Oft the palm
i'll every public enterprise IL which
they engrge. We like this characters
tic of our tranS-mountain neighbor>.
albeit their ambition tends to the pro-
motion OF reckleS>neSS and eNtrava-
yance. But California Is the Eden Of
the world, and no one who has ever
lived among her generous people and
breathed her pure air can forget the
manifold blessings and eNollercieS
which she possesses. The latest evil
dence we have of her determination to
do things on the Crapdest imaginable
scale is thus related by the Truckee
PcpublicGa of recent date. Says that
excellen, local journal:

lighted the scientists OF this : ate with

OF $4,000, and will compare With this
proposed monster as the pocket spy

instrument OF the observatory. Just
how large the new telescope can be
made. i. IS impossible at pre>entto say.
Experiments must be made with -la>E.
and the most careful investigation will
be needed in order TO determine the
feasibility OF constructing 4 lens Of the
extraordinary diameter and focal
length required. The Scientific -imcI-
'c0n points out the capability of a
twelve-foOt objective with j focal
depth of 10 feet. which, with an eye
piece OF l-20 inch focus. would give a
nagnifyin- power of 5000 times the
linear dimensions, or over s0.ooa.t NJ

Charles NJ. Stewart is a somewhat
notorious Georgian who killed bis wife

life. Lately a numerously signed pc
titi0n for his pardon vas presented TO
Governor Brown, great stress being
laid upon the fact that at the time the
crime was committed Stewart was too

SPECIAL sERv1oEs.-Special services
were held at the 18th (John) street Luth.
eran Church yesterday in memory
Of the late Mrs. 8. B. Barnitz. In
the morning the communion OF the
Lords Supper was celebrated, the SER
vices being conducted by Rev. ]. W.
Goodln, the efficient secretary Of the
Board Of Home Missions. Rev. G,
preached a very eloquent and touching
discourse,
At the regular session Of the Sabbath
School in the afternoon, the infant class
was brought down stairs, and after q few
words upon the lesson by the pastor, Rev
Goodlin spoke at some length, dwell.
ing particularly and eloquently
upon the great loss suffered by the
school in the death Of Mrs. Barnett. Il
was not necessary, nor did he dwell upon
the history Of her life. Her works are
known. Her Christian spirit, her love
for Christ, her almost perfect life are all
known by all who knew her. But the
speaker endeavored to assuage the grief
which filled every heart. He pointed
the school 10 her life as an example which
was worthy Of imitation, and which
would lead to life everlasting: To the
pastor he gave words Of sympathy,
drawn from the love Of Christ, which is
in his hour OF trouble his only refuge.
AT the evening service Rev. Good
lin preached very touching
discourse to the largest audience
that ever assembled within the
walls Of the church. He took as his text
the words Of Job: "And now men sec not
the bright light which is in the clouds;
but the wind passeth and cleanseth them"
After preaching a beautiful sermon, full
Of warning and loving messages from on
high, he referred in fitting terms to the
solemn occasional memorial to her who
had gone before. To attempt to report
his words without giving them in full
would be to rob his discourse Of all It's
beauty. But 1t touched every heart. It
brought tears to many eyes, and must
have been sweet consolation to all who
loved the departed one.
The discourse was somewhat shortened
by the impending storm, which burst ere
the doxology and kept the congregation
prisoners for some hours.
