CEPTED) BY
THE STAR OF BEENLELEa.
j. j. HILL & CO.

The theory concerning the "Star OF
Bethlehem" Is based on poetlcal foun-
dation. having little TO support 1t. In
the wear 1872, Tycho Brahe, Dutch
astronomer, discovered new star near
Caph in the constellation OF Casslopea.
1t increased in brilliancy until 1T was as
bright as Venus, and could easily he
seen at MONDAY. 1t continued to SHINE
bright for a month, then gradually
grew dim, and in sixteen months dis
appeared from view. 1t was looked
upon as new creation. or sun on
fire, and the general opinion was that IL
would never again shine III the star
depths.
Forty wears later the telescope was
invented When it wos ttTaed 80 the
position in the heavens occupied by the
blazing star, minute star was found
near the identical spot. This telescop-
tc star is still there, and IS doubtless
ihe same one that blazed forth IN 1872.
The discovery that it existed led astron'
omers to search Astronomical records,
and it was found that similar bright
stars had appeared in the same region
OF the sky IN 94j and 1864 Cuuating
back three periods from 9i5 we are
brought b the near vicinity OF the birth
OF Christ. Observers gifted with poet
js fancies have naturally connected the
two events, and have Inferred that the
star IN the east, pointing TO the place OF
the nativity. was a sudden oUtburst OF
this wonderful star. For this reason II
has received the name Of the Star OF
Bethlehem.
About twenty-four OF these temporary
stars have appe.r red in the last 2.0CO
Years. subject. like the star ia Casslopea,

t. their normal ilsign ticauce. Tney
are nos ciassed as variable stars, sub
i.ct to sudden outburst due to erup-
tions oi blazing hydrogen. aud which
are followed by long periods oi quies-
cnce. According tO this theory, the
star Of 1872 is a variable star, with a
period OF = few more than 800 years
The last period was 30S years, II the
bright star OF 1864 was one and the
same We may, therefore, hope for a
repetition Of the incomprehensible phe-
nomenon in the immediate future. The
star was due IN 1880; if il appears az
all, il will surely blaze forth by 1888.
There is a possibility. therefore, that
the long-lost Star of Bethlehem. the
Pilgrim Star, the star of 1872, or Tycho
Brahe's star-for II is known by all
these names-will once more become a
shining wonder in the sky. Such a
celestial visitor will be warmly well
coined by astronomers. and far more
acceptable than a great comet spanning
the heavens with its gossamer tail.

The Genoa Shooting.

The principals in the Genoa
shooting affrsy, mentioned in the
APPEAL several days ago, were
James Campbell, bar-keeper for
Dan Robishaw, and Adam Dickson,
"a bad man when drinking. "
Dickson thought Campbell would
not fight, and taking advantage of
that belief he abused the latter
villainously for some time. The
Courier says. when Campbell could
stand the abuse no longer he fairly
wiped up the floor with Dickson.
After Dickson WAS allowed to got
up, he still felt desire to keep up
his reputation as "bad man" so
he went home and armed himself.
Returning. he opened fire upon
Campbell, in which the latter took
a similar hand. but no one was
hurt. The "bad man" is held to
await the action of the Grand Jury.

the Secretary of the interior has
ruled that the fact that a soldier
had a disease prior to enlistment is
not an absolute bar to his pension
claim. It must be presumed the
soldier was sound because he wss

vice and subsequent disability
being proved, it does not require
much evidence to establish the fact
of his soundness at the time of en-
