One of tho Worlds Wonders.

The massive six-foot reflector in the
Lord Rose telescope at Parsontown,
Ireland, is justly considered one OF the
modern wonders of the world. The
gigantic reflector, the first that ever
solved the problem of the nebula of
Orion, is set in the end of fifty-fve-
foot wooden tube, held together by
iron bands. Although it weighs a
fraction over four tons it is so sensi-
tive that the pressure of the hand upon
the back viii produce distortion in the
reflected image OF a star. Compared
with the human eye this monster re-
fector is as 10000 to /; it has pene-
trating power of 500, and can reveal
stars SO remote from our earth that it
would require 60,000year for the light
TO reach us, and yet light travels at
the unthinkable speed of l92, 800 miles
per second.

An Unpleasant Possibility.

Should Christina, the queen regent
of Spain, fail to survive the danger
pus operation which now constitutes
the only chance of saving her life the
regency viii devolve on her sister-in-
law. Princess Isabella, widow of
Count Girgenti. The princess, who is
pne of the most masterful and ambi-
tious woman in Spain, is devoted body
and soul to the ultra-cOnServative
party, and is bitter foe of every
species of reform, progress, or popular
enlightenment. A bigot in all religious
matters, she would, if she could have
her way, revive ali the terrors of the
inquisition, restrict almost to the
point of total annihilation the legisla-
tive powers of the cortes, and rule the
kingdom autocratic fashion by right
divine" Should she in turn die be-
fore the baby king of Spain reaches
bis majority Princess Eulalia would
become regent.

Infanta Isabella.
The Spaniards are romantic people,
and the queen regent of Spain, Dona
| Cristine, the mother of King Alphonso
| XIII, occupies in the popular imagina-
ton place which suggests the chival-
rous middle ages rather than modern
| Europe Stories are continually told
of her kindness and magnanimity
which are probably true, and she ap-
pears to have gift for doing pretty
and interesting things. like an old-time
''gentille ladye." Not long ago she
was at Huelva. in southern Spain, and
there visited an old castle whose custo-
dian was blind. The old man was on
the point of weeping and exclaimed:
y have never had so much cause to
regret my blindness as now, for l cam
not see YOUR majesty's face
The queen answered: But if you
cannot see my face you can touch it"
Then she took the old mans hand and
caused him to pass it over her features,
to his boundless satisfaction.
This incident was more touching,
rnanifestly, but less amusing, than one
which is recorded as occurring at re-
Gently at Madrid. The queen is accus-
toned to ride out frequently in the
country about the capital, which is
bleak and deserted to the last degree.
Madrid was built, indeed, in the midst
of a desert.
On such expeditions the queen is gen
orally accompanied by the Infanta Isa-
bella, the young kings aunt. One day
the driver of the royal carriage became
lost in the monotonous plain and spent
two hours v2inly trying to find the
way. The queen and the infanta were
somewhat alarmed.
All at once they came upon an old
wOod-cutter, who, with bunch Of fag-
OTIS upon his back, gathered laboriously
from the stunted bushes to be found
here and there, had sunk down to the
ground, evidently for a moments rest.
''Ho, my good mani" the driver of
the royal carriage called out will
you tell US the road to Madrid?"
''No," said the woodcutter, 81 will
not, except on one condition"
"What's that?"
''That you take me in and carry mo
back to the city"
The coachman declined to do this.
every well, then, find the road your
self" said the woodcutter.
The queen here interviewed. She
ordered to let the man tie his fagot at
the back of the coach and to take him
upon the drivers seat and drive him
home.
The man tied his rough fagot at the
back of the royal coach, mounted the
box and the road to Madrid was soon
found.
When the royal carriage entered the
city in this queer state there was
great sensation, as the people readily
recognized the equipage. The wood
cutter sat proudly on the box. When
his quarter was reached he got down
and unfastened his fagot The queen
put her head out Of the door.
''Go to the royal palace tomorrow"
she said, ''and your service will be re-
warded.

whose passenger he had been, was over

and uttering eXclamations of astonish-

BIG FISH IN TIE HUDSON.
Results of the Work of the Federal Fish
Comm Lssion.

tckult6 OF InS FHDrk OF Ibe r euerai FISH
Commission.
For number of years the United
States fish commission, cooperating
with the New York commission, has
been engaged in stocking the Hudson
and its tributaries with salmon frv.
This river, though never salmon
river, seemed to present the natural
conditions for the establishment of the
species.
There are, however, according to the
Washington Star, on both the main
river and the tributaries, natural
distractions which would prevent the
ascent OF salmon to the spawning
grounds, at the sources of the stream.
1t was, therefore, determined to test
possibilities in this direction by con
tinuing to hatch out and plant the fry
in the headquarters, in the expecta-
tion that they would go to sea and on
their return show themselves at the
different distractions in the river.
Several hundred thousand fry have
been planted IL the river each season
for some years past; and two years ago
ten thousand yearling fish from the
Maine station were also planted in
the river below the Troy dam. Though
no salmon fishery is prosecuted in the
river, and no salmon were taken only
incidentally in the shad nets. recent
reports from E. G. Blaclford, of New
York, indicate the taking during the
present season of more than eight hun
dred salmon, varying from ten TO twen-
ty-tive pounds in weight.
With proper protection in reference
TO the fishing, and with provision made
10 permit the salmon TO reach the head
waters Of the river. there is now no
reason to doubt that the Hudson Will
Become as important stream in this
respect as is the Pcnob scot in Maine.

Along life's lowlands petty men
Mix in crowd with thoughts earth.ttsd
And sympa thies too narrow-eyed
To peer beyond their little then.
They walk their ways, all unaware
OF folk-rloots in the upper air.

The inspirations of the skies;
Then each to each they cry "Geod han"

We are in the heartiest sympathy With
the action OF the South Carolina court In
declaring her liquor law unconstitutional
.rd vo,d. A more Objectionable piece OF
paternalism never emanated from So
c,alist's BRAIN But II cannot be denied
that the decision is out OF line with the
accepted doctrine OF the day. The 6u-
preme Court Of the United States has
established for all jurisdictions that take
the law from It, that the sale OF liquor
is one OF those noxious employments
that "a State may either forbid entirely,
or permit on such terms as may suit II.
The State OF Virginia's coupon contract
provided that Il should be received In
payment Of all public taxes and dues.
The State passed law forbidding her
collectors 10 receive her coupons In pay
ment OF taxes for the sale OF liquor.
1t was contended before the Supreme
Court that. while the State might en-
tirely forbid the sale OF liquor. yet when
she expressly permitted It and sought 10
raise revenue from Its sale. she must
take her coupons In payment or the
taxes imposed on H. But the Supreme
Court OF the United States held other
wise. II held that the right to prohibit
the sale OF liquor involved the right TO
permit It on any conditions that the
State might see 1T to prescribe. and that
the statute was. therefore. valid. Hue
