The funniest-look!ng man in the Sen.
ate is Ingalls, of Kansas. He is tall and
very thin, and his Prince Albert is gen.
orally wrapped so tightly around his
form that one could be pardoned for
supposing that good whistling breeze
would carry him before it. Ingalls, has
steel-gray hair and red nose. lie wears
eyeglasses, and is seldom seen on the
street without kid gloves and polished
silk hat. He is well informed, and his
knowledge extends into nearly every
field of human thought. His eulogy OF
Ben Hill was the simplest, prettiest
speech of the kind delivered in the
Senate for many year, and it has been
scattered broadcast throughout the

out pair of heavy trimmed gold spec

Gently he gave $4,000 to the Georgia

Tobacco Growing In Fresno.


IA prominent and wealthy San Fran.
cisco physician has purchased section
of land west of Fresno, and proposes
putting out tobacco thereon. He has
secured the services Of an experienced
tobacco grower to superintend the
work. About 200 acres of land will be
prepared and planted this season.
Tobacco, II has been demonstrated,
grows luxuriantly on the irrigated lands
of the county, and there is no question
but that the quality, when properly
cured, will DO equal to that grown in
the popular tobacco sections of the
country. Should this plantation prove
q success, the weed will be extensively
cultivated here, as 1t is a very profitable
crop.

The Red Light in the Sky.
PROF. PAUL, OF TIE NAVAL OBSERVATORY, oFFE
c0Nc rypI .TIoN

SOME EXPLANATION.
The remarkably brilliant display In the western
heavens few evenings ago, when the sky was
brightly illunned with a red glow, was quite gen.
eral throughout the country and attracted a great
deal of attention. There has appeared, however,
no verydefinite explanation OF this phenomenon, and
when STAR reporter met Prof. Paul, OF the naval
observatory it occurred to him that the professor
might be able to throw some light on the subject.
81 have not investigated the NATTER" remarked
the professor, in reply to question, "but noticed
the peculiar red light in the sky. / have seen no
scientific explanation OF the cause OF the phenOme-
non. Perhaps you noticed that after the volcanic
eruption in Java the sun in that country as we'll as
throughout the Malay peninsula, had yellowiSh
appearance This was probably due to the gaseous
matter which was thrown out from the volcano,
and the light Of the shining through it assumed
this peculiar color But 1t Is hardly possible that
this could have affected the atmosphere here"
II saw In the morning papers" continued the
professor, 'that Prof. Brooks, at Phelps. New York,
had observed collection OF IneteOrS and he stated
that the earth was passing through mass OF
them, ana that this was the cause OF the peculiar
lght 1t hardly seems to me that this is possible.
A mass OF meteOrS in sufficient numbers to have
upon the sum- and their presence would have been
noted by other observers 1t seems probable to me
mat, owing 10 some peculiar currents of wind,
the clouds had been formed unusually high In the
SKY, ana. the light OF the sun passing through
these clouds, the rays OF the blue end of the
spectrum were absorbed, and the red rays
We're rejected towards us That is the reason
the sun, and sometimes the moon, looks red as
these bodies are sinking In the west. Their rays
haW greater amount of atmosphere to pass
through, and that makes the red part OF the spec
tru1n prominent Ii there was any other cause for
IL, such as VapOrS In the atmosphere the presence
been longer continued. i don't know that this Is
the correct explanation, but il seems probable"

YEARS IN THE PENITENT1ARY.
Benjamin F. Bigelow, late receiving teller OF the
Bank OF the Republic, recently convicted Of en-
beZlement, was called up for sentence in the Grim
fnal Court this morning, Judge Wylie having over
ruled the motion for new trial The district at
torney said he intended that the other twelve in
dlctments against Bigelow should be tried.
The court said that il the Judgment of his court
was affirmed 1t was probable the other cases will
not be pressed.
When Bigelow was asked to stand up his face
was somewhat flushed The court. after remarking
upon the enOrlnfty OF the ofense, sentenced him to
five years imprisonment In the New Hampshire
state prison, at Concord. He said he would not
impose fine, as that would bring suffering to the
family. The usual motion to suspend Judgment,
pending appeal, was made by ME-. Cook.
