Professor Barnard'S Astronomical

The San Francisco Chronicle, speaking
Of Professor Barnard's astronomical
lecture, which is to be given here on
Wednesday night, and which he deliv-
cred in San Francisco recently before the
Polytechnic, says it was brilliant lecture
and that Professor Barnard astonished
and delighted his audience, and adds that
sit was one of the most interesting lect-
ures ever heard upon the Pacific Coast"
After giving some of the chief points of
the lecture the paper adds that "he was
greatly aided by magnificent stereopticon
views from photographs taken through
the great telescope. Photographing by
that instrument far surpass all results of
stellar photographing obtained in any
other part of the globe, and has brought
the study to such pitch that the results
adduced are almost incredible. The
pictures were really sublime and elected
murmurs of astonishment and repeated
bursts of applause from the assemblage.' -

A Solitary O Agent Waylays
Billy WesterdeId.

Last Saturday afternoon, while
leisurely riding to Dayton, ex-senator
Westerfeld was halted near the Briggs
mill below Silver by a lone highway
man, and compelled to disgorge. The
robber expected to secure the sack
containing the money to be paid to
employees OF the Woodwork mill, OF
which Mr.. Westerield is Superinten-
dent.
But the money had been transferred
over the road and paid out two days
before, and the road agent found but
IS 80 in Mr.. Westerfeld's possession,
which was a sad disappointment.
After the robbery the ex-senator,
with Sheriff Donely, returned from
Dayton in search of the robber. They
returned as far as Johnstown, where
they met two men driving a horse from
MONEYS stable. They said they were
from Silver City, but had met nobody,
and it was afterwards learned that
they had driven out OF Daney Canyon.
After parting from the occupants OF
the buggy, the Dayton officer was JUS
picious that they were the robber and a
confederate, but the suspicion was not
well grounded. The persons mentioned
were a well known clerk in a G street
store and a popular drummer of the
Comstoek, who were out taking an
airing.
Diligent search of the surrounding
country has as yet failed to find the
bold highwayman.

A DEEP HOLE.
An on Well SINK 4,IOO Feet Near
wheeling.

One Of the most important scientific
explorations into the depths OF the
earth ever undertaken, says the Phila-
delphia Press, will be carried out near
Wheeling, Penn, under the joint aus
pices OF the United States Government
and the city Of Wheeling.
some months ago the Wheeling
Development Company began drilling
a well near this city in search of oil or
gas. 1t vas determined to bore as far
as possible. The hole has already
reached the depth Of loo feet, within
500 feet Of the deepest well in the
world. In this distance a dozen thick
veins of coal have been passed, oil and
gas both struck, but not in paying
quantities, and gold quartz, iron and
other minerals found. The hole is
eight inches in diameter, and the
largest in diameter Of any deep well in
the world.
Professor White, State Geologist, has
arrived from Washington, where he
had succeeded in getting the govern
ment geological survey officers inter
ested in the exploration, and the re-
suit is that the hole will be drilled toa
depth Of one mile. Then the govern
ment will take up the work under the
direction OF two expert officers OF the
geological survey and drill into the
earth as far az human skill can pene-
trate.
The idea is to take the temperature
and magnetic conditions as far as
possible, and by e Of an instru-
ment constructed for the purpose, a
complete record Of the progress and all
discoveries made will be kept and will
be placed in the geological survey ex-
hibit at the Worlds Fair.
