0NE MILE TO The MUUlS.
What a South American Hopes to
Accomplish with a Telescope.
Marvels to Be Produced by the Use of
Rejecting Mirrors-Thc United
States to Be the Field
of Development.

Let any scientific reader stand on an
unobstructed plain and look at an OBJ
ject one mile away and he viii find that
he can distinguish in Il very clear way
not only the outlines, but even minute
portions of the object. If, then, the
moon could be brought to within an APP
parent distance of one mile from the
earth, what a possibility of scientific
discovery would be opened up. This
possibility of discovery is what a live
and energetic gentleman from Colom-
bia, South America, feels certain he is
able to accomplish, and if success
crowns his efforts there will be exhib-
tied at the worlds fair a rejecting
telescope of SO much greater power
than anything yet known that in com
parison the present big instruments,
according to the Philadelphia Times,
will be little. less than toy Eyeglasses.
Senior DR.. Carlos Alban, of Colombia,
is the wizard who proposes to produce
all these marvels, and at present the
doctor is in Washington comforting
with scientific men and officials as to
the best mode of procedure DIR. Alban
brings with him letters from his own
government and from prominent
American and French residents of Bo-
gotta. He has served as procurator
general of Colombia, and is we'll
known as scientist of high standing.
His plan for a telescope embraces the
principle of rejecting mirrors with sew
cral radical changes from the old
the first place, for the mirrors them
selves, and then for focal adjustment,
instead OF the present method of NOV
ing the eye piece, the mirror itself is
moved to obtain the proper adjustment.
DR.. Alban has already built an instru-
ment, twenty-five inches in diameter,
which has been exhibited in New York,
and which has shown marvellous power.
An instrument of four yards diameter
viii only weigh two hundred pounds,
and unless the eminent inventor has
made a very great miscalculation will
have such power as to bring the moon
within one mile of the earth and allow
observers to finally determine the
structure and question of the practical
bility of life existing on that luminary.
An article recently published in the
Courier des Etats Unis contains an
account of somewhat similar tele-
scope which was expected to be pre-
pared by the grand exhibition in Paris
n 1900. 1t is interesting to know that
DR.. Alban had developed his plan be-
lore the Trench apparatus was thought
If, and that il further success crowns
lis efforts the credit of this great |
stride in astronomy will belong to the
american continent, while the United |
states will be the scene of its practical
development and operation.

FINGERS ALL THUMBS.



Mouth He Deserved No Pity.
''Did you ever observe" said we'll
known st. Louisan recently, what
funny things man will do when he is
confused or suddenly embarrassed?
Well, have paid a great deal of atten-
ton to the NATTER aud l think the
amusement have had well worth my
time.
THE other day 1 was riding out to-
ward the west end on a crowded street
car, and | noticed handsomely dressed
young man who had toothpick in his
mouth. He whistled little-as well
as he could with the toothpicl1-and APP
peared absolutely imperturbable. Then
he decided he would take smoke,
which he had a right to do, being on
the rear end of the front car
HE took from one pocket a cigarette
and from the other a match, and at that
critical moment the conductor de-
manded his fare. The gyrations of that
young man were a social study. With
the cigarette in one hand, his match in
the other, and his toothpicl in his
mouth, and two pretty girls observing
him intently, the result could hardly
have been otherwise than ludicrous.
''He first undertook to put the cigar
cite in his mouth, by which operation
he stuck his finger on the toothpicl1.
Then he put the toothpicb in his pocket
and dropped the match. BY an extraor-
binary effort he regained the match
and underworld to regain the toothpick
and find the nickel
This caused the loss of his cigarette,
and by this time everybody in the car
had begun to litter. AS last resort
the young man stuck the match in his
mouth, put the toothpick in his left
hand, dropped the nickel, and offered
the conductor his cigarette"

MULES BORN AGAIN.
After Four Years Underground the Day
light Makes Them Blink.


81 saw an odd sight in Luzerne
county few days ago" said E. B. Coke,
of Scranton, to c. L. Magee, of Pitts
! burgh, and one or two others in the
Fifth Avenue hotel, New York, the
other night. 'Six mules that had for
| four years hauled cars in the lower
workings of colliery to and from the
! foot of the shaft had to be brought up
owing to the flooding of the mine on
account of fire. The mules in all that
SINE had seen no light stronger than
the flicker of the little Davy lamps the
miners carried. The sun was in the
zenith when they reached the surface,
and the atmosphere was as clear as
crystal.
''The astonished creatures closed
their eyes to shut out the flood of
strong light, and kept them tightly
closed while they were driven to pas
ture lot mile distant and turned loose,
There they stood, trembling as if
afraid something evil was about to be-
fall them. Presently they half opened
their eyes and peeped around in actual
open mouthed amazement. 1t was

When they became accustomed to the
sunlight they elevated their heads and
slowly swept culm piles, mountains,
sky and horizon again and again
Toward shutdown they broke into
chorus of joyous brays, the like of
which was never heard from mules be-
fore.
after quarter of an hour of that
music they took to kicking, jumping,
whirling about like teetetums and
rolling on the sod as though they had
gone mad. For four days they spent
their time staring at the new sights Of
field and sky, refusing food and water,
not even nibbling at the grass and not
as much as blinking an eye in sleep.
After they had looked enough their
and thirst returned and they |
became common everyday mules, but |
while they were slsygazing hundreds of
people went to see their didos''

THE CENTENARY OF GAS.
VIII Another Hundred Years Supersede 1t
as an ulumirant?

VIII AnOLneT 1eArS SupefSeu6 1t
as an nluminant?
Among the many anniversaries which
are being celebrated this year is the
centenary of the invention of gas
as an illuminant, says the New
York Tribune. 1t was in 1892
that William Murdoch first lighted up
his humble home at Redruth, in duchy
of Cornwall, by means of coal gas made
in an iron kettle, into which he inserted
six years later that the invention was
developed on large scale, when Mar
dock was employed to establish gas
lighting apparatus at the great Soho
foundry at birmingham. In 1903 the
I4yceum thcater in London was first
lighted by gas, and in 1916 the gas
lamps which had been used to illu1ni-
nate Piccadilly since 1907 became com
mon throughout London. 1t was at
this time, too, that David Melville, of
Newport, r. l.. first adapted gas, for
the manufacture of which he had Sc
cured patent in 1906, to the Beaver
Tail lighthouse, and it has since be-
come one of the principal illuminants
used in those watch towers which, in
imitation of the ancient pharos, are
scattered all over the globe for the
guidance and protection of ships and
mariners.
1t is doubtful whether hundred
years hence, on the occasion OF the BIZ
centenary of the invention of gas, the
latter will still retain the commanding
position which it now occupies rs an
illuminant. On every side signs in
crease which presage that the age of
electricity is at hand-that age which
is far more likely to rcvolutionize the
civilization of the world than any Of its
predecessors. Gas will probably be
gradually forced into back seat and
its use confined to stoves and fire
places, which find such favor among
the small households of crowded cities.
1t will be entitled, however, to the
grateful remembrance of man as a
powerful factor in the development Of
his civilization and progress during the
last one hundred years. 1t has contrib
uted moreover, to his enlightenment as
well as to his comfort, and has done
much to increase the broad and deep
gulf which separates humanity of the
century from mankind of
the dark ages
