THE DEMON STAR.
A Favorable Opportunity to See 1t To
Morrow Night.

Morr0w Night.
Among the most interesting sights IN
the heavens at this season is a star IN the
northeast in the constellation Of Perseus.
To this star the Arabs. many hundred
years ago. gave the name Algol, meaning
The Demon. their fantastic belief being
that the star was the slowly winking eye
Of one Of these objects OF their superstitl-
Gus fear who inhabited that portion oil the
heavens.
Algol ordinarily presents the appear
ance Of a star Of the second Magnitude;
in which condition it remains TWO DAY anu
fourteen hours. 1t then begins slowly 10
fade for about three hours ana quarter
when it sinks to the fourth hlaghlI Gu9:
This appearance continues for about nan
an hour. when it begins to brighten, re-
gaining its full lustre in about three
hours and quarter more. The time oc-
cupied 10 the round Of change from one
minimum to another is little less imam
two days and twenty-one hours. A favor
able opportunity to see this star VIII De Oh
Sunday night at 9 :40 O'Clock.
While AIgol NAV be identified by no.
ticing what bright star is exactly over
head at the hour given for the meridian
passage. a better method OF nndlng the
star at the time when wanted Is 10 urdW
an imaginary line from the little group OF
stars called the PIeiades. or seven sisters,
to the constellation CassiOpela, or the
Lady in her chair, which Is well marked
by five bright stars in the form OF W,
and now visible in the northeast, very
high up. Algol is situated on TINS me,
about One-half of the distance from the
Pleiades to the centre of the w. Al ABOUT
O'Clock last night. and for some Tune 10
come, the three objects nam a, cassie
peia. AlgOl and the Pleiades, are IN
straight line from the zenith to the north
east horizon.
As to the cause of this singular and
rapid variation in the amount OF hight
emitted by the star astronomers are not
perfectly agreed, but the most generally
received opinion, the theory that, on the
whole, explains the phenomenon IN the
most satisfactory manner, is that Algoi
is attended by an enormous dark planet,
revolving at a very short distance from
him in the period observed-that is, ,
DAYS 30 hours and 40 minutes
thus eclipsing a very large portion OF the
stars light-abOut seYen-tenths. In order
to give an idea of how matters stand, if
this theory is correct, we will suppose
AlgOl to be a sun-of the same size and
light-giving power as our Own-that Is,
$50, 900 miles in diameter, and 1t reYOlYes
at a distance Of about 100000 miles
from AlgOl. The planet is, therefore,
over eight times the diameter of Jupiter,
the largest in the Solar system, and its
distance from its primary Is about one
seventh that Mercury is from the sun,
Mercury being the nearest to the sun Of
any in the solar system.

The railroad Cotton Sheds

There has been rumOr in circulation
during the past week that the Central
Railroad Company was about to erect a
ton along the line Of the road. A reporter
Of the MORNING News called on Superin-
tendent Rogers to learn if the report was
true. and, if possible, to learn at what
stations the sheds would be erected, and
what the dimensions OF each were TO be.
The superintendent replied that he had
no information 10 give upon the subject,
and seemed surprised that such a TumOr
should be in circulation. He took Occa-
sion 10 observe, however, that if the sheds
were to be erected il would be impossible
ut this time 10 ascertain the dimensions
of any of them.

I'm tic surf Too Long.

The delights Of the bath are so great,
whether you are bouncing about in the
ocean or swimming in the pond near home,
that you are apt to stay in too long, You
are chilled, your teeth chatter as if you
would shake them out; your lips and your
nails are blue, and your finger tips are
wrinkled. You need Immediate warming
up. or you will be i'll. Internally, take a
few drops of Perry Davis Pain Killer in
some water. Externally rub yourself
with it, either with the palm Of the hand
or with a flannel rag. Then lie down to a
pleasant sleep, and awake refreshed and
happy.

The NIiddIeground Road.

This highway, which is a continuation
Of Montgomery street, south, which has
been i'm a bad condition for number OF
years. has recently been put in good order
by the road force under the direction OF
Gen. &. r. Harrison, Road Commissioner
for that district. The coffee weeds which
had grown so rank as to leave only bril-
die path, and in some places scarcely that,
have been cut down, mud holes filled up
and all distractions removed, except one
encrOachment Of about twenty feet near
where the road makes its first turn. The
road force consisted entirely of cOlOred
people, and the work reflects credit upon
them and General Harrison, who gave
his personal superintendent.
