THE PRIMITIVE TELESCOPE.
The Instrument with Which the Rings OF
Saturn Were Discovered.

The Instrument with Which the Rings Oh
Saturn Were Discovered.
Soon after the death of Calico the
telescope was further perfected by Huy-
gems, who. in the first place, invented
the form OF eye-piece which still bears
his name, and gives a large, fiat field
with very sharp definition. Many vari-
ations of. form, but no improvement in
the seeing quality Of telescope eye
pieces, have since been made, SO that
from this time all improvements in the
telescope have been necessarily confined
to the object-glass.
Huygens next enlarged the single
lens obiect-glass to its greatest possible
power. His largest telescope had an
obiect-glass five inches in diameter.
and a focal length OF one hum
bred and twenty feet; this enor-
NOUS focal length being abso-
lntsly necessary to reduce the blur
ring effect of the prismatically colored
fringes, as well as spherical alteration,
to such moderate limits that magnify
ing power of upward to two hundred
diarneters could be employed.
To have watched Huygens at work
with his telescope must have been an
amusing sight Its great length pre-
c1uded the use of a tube, and, therefore,
an assistant was obliged to slide the OBJ
iect-glass up and down vertical pole,
one hundred feet high, by cord, while
Huygens pointed the eye-piece at the
object-glass by sighting along string
connecting the two, meanwhile steady
ing himself by resting his elbows ON
two-legged wooden horse. A more
difficult and unsatisfactory contriVance
to use can hardly be imagined, yet, with
this telescope, in 1868, he discovered
the rings Of Saturn, and one OF its sat
elites. Charles P. HoaUGrd, IN Popular

upon the valuable portion of the ranch

Martha Parsons wept as she took

poor their home might be, it was hence

As for John Parsons, he looked neither
to the right nor to the left. de dld NOT
even turn his head for last look at the
old place as he rounded the hill that
shut it from their view.
Pride and ambition We're well nlgn
dead within him, and he hoped Tor
nothing beyond bare existence Tor the

He would come back, he thought,
when the roads got good again, and II

would tear off some of the boards from
such portions as were not buried by the

that the place was absolutely worthless
and probably some tramping miner

CHAPTER XIX.
rnn MonNrAIN IeANCR.

II was high noon when our friends
reached Phippsburg, and they were still
fifteen miles from the new home to
which they were going.
The girls had not yet arrived, the
steamer on which they had taken pas
sage having grounded upon bar
formed from the washing from the
mines.
johnny, too, was complaining OF his
back, and his parents feared to take
him further that day over the rough
roads,
1t was decided, therefore, that Mrs.
Parsons and Johnny should remain at
the hotel in Phippsburg, while the men
went on with the goods, and that on the
morrow when they returned, the heavy
wagon and carriage with the team which
Mr.. Blake was to have should be turned
over to him and the family should 60 on
in the spring wagon.
Small as it was, the expense OF re-
naming st the hotel was sad draw on
the few remaining dollars in the posses
sion Of John and Martha Parsons, but
it could NOT be helped and the teams
drove on and left them.
Towards evening the boat arrived,
and on it came Jennie and Lucy. Mrs
Parsons could not leave Johnny to go
down to the landing, but watched at the
hotel window and beckoned to them as
they came up the opposite side OF the
| street.
When the girls saw their mother they
hurried across the street to the hotel
and into the sitting room where she
awaited them, and in another moment
all three were crying upon each others
| shoulders.
l ssOh mother, mother, it's awful to
think that the old place is lost, buried
| bv the overflow from those mines; is
there no way to save it? Can't it be
floated of AGAIN.? sobbed Lucy, her
whole frame shaking with excitement
II can't bear to live and know that you
and father are driven out of your COM
Portable home and forced to begin on q
piece of wild land again. ] wish you
would 90 to town and live and let me
teach school and support you. I'm sure
could do it. =
You must not take it so hard,
dears,' returned their mother, still
holding the girls close to her. True,
it's very sad to be obliged to give up
the old home, but no doubt we shall be
very comfortable ON the new place when
we get it fixed up little. What hurts
me most is the knowledge that we may
never be able to visit you if You go SC
far away as suppose you will do when
you are married to Mr.. Annelsey.n
.I'll never marry, mother. never, z
sobbed Lucy. II have written Mr.
Annelsey and broken off our engage
ment, and am going to stay with yor
and father and help take care Of johnny
as long as L live. You need not say /
word against it, for it is too late; tht
letter is half way to New York by thi'
time

A fsusl1 of light across the nA8As
which hsFf reveals and half coinceals
The things that arel
Which comes and goes in ghostly shape
And floats afar!
Against the sky
The iet-bIack lines of lofty pines,
Whose million indebtedness know how
At times to sigh,
And how to laugh; but now are hushed
AS thops,h in fear;
Or else that so they may not fail
Some call TO hear
When heralds of the dawn appear.
And now there comes deeper CLEAN
Bright rays that seem
To steal apace to every place:
A bat jerks west: III owl in quest
OF hollow trees drifts down the teas.
And haFki
A bIue-bird sings: its music rings
'TWixt dry and dark.
And now the lines of sentinel pines
That watch on high
The glory gee: for the eastern gates
Or glttering pearl
Where the morning waits,
Wide open whirl,
And pillows of gold the earth Unfold.

Has blossomed from the aarl5some night.

When this was all settled between
them, and a memorandum of the whole

tleman returned the pocket book to his
pocket. buttoned up his coat, and
mounting his horse, rode back to town.
When he was gone Mrs. Parsons gave

The Republican Nomination in 1888.
OPINION OF A DEMOCRATIC PAPER.
New York World, June 81

New fork World, June :.
Some Of the journals which opposed Mr..
Cleveland's election last year and sought to
defeat him with Mr.. Blaine through the
Butler movement are making silly caicula-
tons about the Republican nomination in
1883. They pronounce Mr.. Eyar,s as frat
In the race, with a pretty certain chance of
winning, and name Senator Logan as the
next in the order of probability. Sherman,
Hawley, Allison and Harrison are also
trot,ed out, and it is regarded as a matter
OF course that the nomination will be COB
oled by the United States Senate, which is
now the last ditch of Republicansm in
the General Government
This is pure balderdash. James G. Blaine
is stronger in the Republican organization
to-day than at any former period Of his
career. He is the actual boss Of the New
York machine at the present moment, while
last year the organization was against him

Ohio, which he did not have in 1854. An

his o~n party than he was when he received
the nomination last wear.
His followers believe that he was only
beaten by an accident which could no, have
been foreseen. Since the election Mr..
Blaine has been behaving himself discreetiv
and IN manner to extend his Influence
over the Republican machine managers.
