The Lick Observatory.

Concerning the Lick observatory the
San Jose (Cal. Times says: The OBJ
servatory is situated on the lowest of the
! peaks OF the mountain. at an elevation
of 4,2S5 feet above the sea. We found
here ample testimony that the S114, 600
which Captain Frazer has paid out this
year has been wisely expended. Almost
one-half OF the observatory proper is now
being rooted. When completed it will
be 2l0 feet long, with width in the
center of 60 feet, and is 40 at each side.
At one end of this structure stands a
dome 30 feet in diameter at the base and
40 feet high, in which is mounted fine
tWelye-inch refracting telescope. This
instrument is twice the size of anv other
glass in the State. and is capable of
power of 200 diameters 1t can cause
the moon, which is almost 100000 miles
away, to appear as though it were but
POO miles distant. The remainder of the
finished section of the building will be
devoted to clock room, large work.
shop, dormitory and waiting room,
and g reception room for visitors. The
excavation for the great dome is 80 feet
diameter. The dome will be built on
oiiO ooIu iOoN aiIu VIII w OCCuplou Dy
the famous thirty-six inch refractor.
This glass is the largest in the world,
the next in order being the Vienna re-
tractor, twenty-seven inches, the tele-
scope at the Naval observatory at Wash
ington, twenty-six inches, the Newhall
instrument at Newcastle. England,
twenty-five inches, and the recently
erected refractor at the Halsted observa-
tory, Princeton, twenty-three inches.
The focal length necessary for the Lick
telescope can not be determined until
object glass is tested Hence it is now
impossible to build the dome for its re-
ception, FORTS length may be anywhere
from forty to sixty feet. Two small
structures adjoining the main building

Why the Faro Bank Wins.

That is something that a great many
clever men who play a great deal
against faro do not know. 1t is not that
there is a steady percentage in the
bank favor in the eases of "splits, ~
but that the bank plays with the most
money. that the bank always wins in the
end. That is a simple enough PROPOSE
ton, but is seldom understood. A bank
with $25, 200 cash has as many more
chances of winning in the end the money
of player worth 800 as the bank 8
capital is greater than the players. The
player can only lose his 800 once; the
bank can lose two hundred and fifty
times before it has reduced its chances to
the players. In other words, the chances
in favor of the bank, as quoted, in
addition to the percentage on "splits,n
is two hundred and fifty to one. This
is susceptible of absolute mathematical
demonstration, yet will be read with
by many who occasionally
buck the tiger. The ordinary player
who goes with ten or twenty dollars to
lose in bank having 800, 900 to lose,
can do little Sunday morning work in
figuring out his chances of beating the
bank.-San Francisco Call.

A Donkey in a Railroad Car.

lhey tried to load a donkey on a Hudson
River Railroad train at the Grand Central
aePot, but the nine men engaged in the
undertaking now fully realize that tbnv
made mistake. The donkey was a
member OF theatrical company, which
started out to battle with starvation for
thirty weeks. The other members of the
company were quartered in a first class
railway coach, but the donkey was as
signed quarters in baggage car. AS
he was noted for using his heels rather
more industrlously than compatible with
the rights OF freemen in great country
like America the manager had caused to
De constructed crate in which he was
TO travel. When the donkey appeared
with his attendant the baggage master
suggested that the crate be first placed
IN the baggage car and the donkey next.
In the car the ceremony of Grating the
donkey was to take place in a quiet way.
ihe donkey was taken in and invited to
enter the crate. He objected. Placing
his ears at an angle of forty-fve degrees in
advance OF his eyes he braced himself for
further developments. They soon came.
Three baggage smashers, who had had
summer S campaign tossing trunks and
expressing diabolical delight in, seeing
them break up under their manipula,
tlons, undertook to push the donkey into
the crate, but he didn't 90. His heels
flew up and the baggage smashers flew
down. The donkey stood still, looking
as innocent as q young squab The
three men approached in rage. and
down they sat again. Four brother
baggage smashers came to their assist
ance. They took. him by. the head,
while this left plenty of room for his
heels. Up came the other three, rein
forced by two more men. In atwink-
ling the nine men were on the floor and
the donkey was out in the baggage room
among the trunks. The nine men fol-
lowed. One flung himself upon the
amman neck and another on his back;
one got hold of each leg, and the next
instant the donkey was out in Wander
bilt Avenue looking into a vacant lot.
He was captured by the manager of the
company and held while the railroad
men brought the crate into the street.
The manager then coaxed his donkey
ship into the. crate, fastened the gate
and invited the nine men to carry him
into the baggage car, which they did,
oaths at every step. This
was a piece of baggage they could not
smash, and something they could not
trltte with.-N. T. Mail. ....... -F.

A California Rain.

The popularity of a California rain
storm is that it makes no "fuss' about
it but attends strictly to business and ac-
compiishes more in given time than
would appear possible from any amount
OF observation. One feels a sense of
dreariness, and looking from the window
sees that it is raining; the quietest rain
in the world, the drops being very small
and falling with no appreciable weight.
But step out into it and it is almost like
stepping into the bay, the wetting is so
rapid and SO thorough. 1t very rarely
happens that any wind accompanies a
rain-storm in that locality, and thunder
and lightning are almost unknown. The
average length of rain-storm is about
forty-eight hours, the water coming down
steadily and resolutely, while from the
hillsides an unbroken sheet an inch or
more in depth rushes rapidly to the res
ervoirs below, until every stream be-
comes river, every valley lake. Some
times it continues to rain-though not
in this unbroken way-for weeks. But
this is a rare case. As a rule, after
about two days and nights of solid del
uge, it clears off, the farmers go to work,
and the weather is too beautiful to be
described at all. Such blue depths of
sky, such acers of brilliant wild flowers,
and the woods ablaze with color, all form
picture which, if an artist should rep
resent truthfully, would be at once pro-
nounced gaudy, unnatural and out of
taste. This style of storm with the in
tervening sunshine) about once month
for five or six months makes an average
California winter.-People's Weekly.

The Literary rebellion"

Mr.. John B. Alden, who organized
the Literary Revolution" which has
given the people the best of books at
such wonderfully low prices, does not
give up the fight with the failure of
THE American Book Exchange"
which failure, he claims, was in no re-
spect the result of selling books too
cheaply, but the combination Of pub
fishers and booksellers against the en-
terprise; Infamous and baseless SANDER
being scattered broadcast eliminated
in panic among the creditors of
the institution, causing a ''rua" which
resulted in the failure of the company,
Just as it has often caused the failure
of banks or other institutions perfect
ly solvent under ordinary conditions.
He and other friends of the enterprise
have organized 1.-The Useful Know
ledge Publishing Company" and a
literary Rebellion which proposes to
carry on the, fight. The first work
published by the new company is
beautiful edition of Macaulay's "1ife
of Frederick the Great" which they
sell for the marvelously low price of
20 cents, neatly bound in cloth. The
company proposes co begin immediate
ly the publication of series of CYCLIC
padas-one of history, one OF bio
graphy, one of science, one OF choice
prose literature, Que Of poetry, and
one of religious literature of
which cyclopedias will be in several
large octave volumes of over 1000
pages each, at the price of $1.25 per
volumn, in cloth binding, and will also
be published in numbers, at only two
cents per number, being considerably
below even the revolution" prices!
They will send specimen pages and
catalogues free, and friends of choice
literature at low prices will be sure to
shower them with postal cards at least.
