Facts In Astronomy.

The nearest fixed star is $1,000, 0O0,-
900 miles from the earth.
The moon is without water, and
destitute OF an atmosphere.
Some of the stars move with We
locity of nearly so miles n second.
The fixed stars are suns and each
may have its planetary system.
There are twenty stars OF the first
magnitude and seventy Of the second.
To the naked eye 1900 stars are Wis
ible; the best telescopes show $780,
900.
The fixed stars are of all colors, vio-
let, blue, green and red predominant
ing.
The fixed star second in distance is
60, 900, 600, 900 of miles from the earth.
There are stars whose diameter is
greater than that Of our whole solar
system.
The strongest telescopes bring the
moon to an apparent distance Of 100
miles.
The planets Venus and Mars most
nearly resemble the cal tn in climate
conditions.
The tail of comet is believed to
be matter similar to that contained
in the nebule.
The suns volume is 1,407, 124 times
that of the earth and 600 times great
er than all the planets.
The earth has three motions: Round
its axis, round the sun and with the
sun and solar system.
The. moon gives out heat enough to
effect thermometer and make diff
ference of two or three degrees.
The spectroscope has shown that
the prominences on the sun are out
bursts OF glowing hydrogen.
Some stars are believed to be SO far
away that 2.OO0,0 900 years are required
for their light to reach the earth.
The calculations Of the astronomer
Baily proved that the weight or the
earth is G, O49, 1886, 900, 900, 900 tons.
Some stars are so distant that,
travelling 100000 miles in a second,
their light requires $4,000 years to
reach the earth.
Sun spots 100,0 900 miles in diameter
have been measured, large enough to
hold dozens Of such worlds as ours.
The motion Of the earth around
the sun is 6S, 305 miles an hour; over
1000 miles minute, or 10 miles sec
ond.
The spectroscope has demonstrated
that ali the so-callsd fixed stars are in
motion-some in one direction some
in another.
An error of thousandth part OF a
second in an astronomical calculation
would mean an error Of 200, 900, 900, 900
| miles in the distance OF star.

Ate Their Shipmate.

Three Of the seamsn Of the Nor
wegian ship Thekla, from Philadel-
phia to Hamburg, who were rescued
by the Danish bark Herman, after
enduring terrible sufferings on the
wrecked vessel, have been arrested on
charge of murder, the charge being
based on their own confession that
they killed and ate sailor ofthe ship
in order to save themselves from
death by starvation. The sailor was
a Dutchman, and the starving men
drew lots as to which should die, the
lot falling on the victim twice in sue
cession. Then the others fell upon
and strangled him, and devouryd the
flesh. The three men arrested are
Norwegians, and their names are
Andersen, Jacobsen and Johannson.
Their case is not without precedent,
the mate Of wrecked vessel having
been tried some years ago in England
on the charge of numbering a cabin
boy, whom the mate, while afloat in
an open boat in the Indian Ocean,
and having been without food for
several days, killed and partly ate,
thus saving his own life. In that in
stance the accused went unpublished.
There seems to be no definite rule
OF law on the subject, SO far as the
courts are concerned, the person
guilty Of cannibalisn being put on
his defence to show by the circum-
stances Of the particular case that the
act was the result of supreme neces-
sitv. The arrests were made at CuX
haven. Much sympathy is felt for
the unfortunate men, who are still in
a very weak condition. They can
hardly yet be considered sane, and
talk incoherently.
The sailors were taken into custody
at the instance of the Consul General
OF Sweden and Norway at Hamburg,
the alleged cannibalism having oc-
Cured in neutral waters, under the
Norwegian flag. The prisoners will
be taken to Norway and tried there.

Coffee for Horses.

The German naturalist Martin re-
lates a case he recently met Of horse
which owed its life to coffee. 1t was
in such bad way that it was consid-
cred incurable, and the owner sold
the animal for S15. The animal was
then almost skeleton, and so weak
that it could hardly walk. The man
who bought the horse Immediately
began to treat it with coffee, giving
infusions of roasted coffee beans and
also coffee beans ground and mixed
with honey. In short time the horse
began to improve, and after a few
months its new owner WAS offered
$3.50 for it. He told Herr Martin he
had brought round by the same treat
rnent many horses which had been
overworked or had lost their strength
and appetite.

Variety In Food.

Variety is one great charm OF life;
variety we demand on our tables, and
variety we must give also to our
feathered favoritcs, il we would have
them fulfill our expectation. Our
own appetites, says Poultry and
Meat Supply, would flag we're the
same dish to be presented to us day
after day, excellent though that dish
might be.
In like manner, we will find our
poultry droop, il we present to them
the same unvarying mess. Let the
hen-wife, then, study a reasonable
variety in their food. And she has
wide range for this-oats, barley,
wheat, rice, may all be given in turn.
Buckwheat is much used in France
for fattening fowls 1t is grown sue
cessfully In England, but not in Scot
land. Sunhower seed are said to
fatten fowls rapidly, and are eaten
greedily by them. Rice may be given
raw; the fowls will pick it up like any
other grain; but it will be found a
much more economical plan to boil
it; for when boiled very soft and al
lowed to cool in the water, it will
swell out to an amazing extent. 1t Is
more expensive than grain, except
when it is bought damaged from
wholesale dealers, in which case it
will be found economical.
Grain can be given raw and boiled
alternately, except oats, which must
always be given in its raw, dry
state. Barley, if given raw, must be
supplied very sparingly; for it swells
out so much in the crop that, if given
freely, it will be sure to injure the
fowls. The safest plan is to have it
boiled, so that the process Of swelling
may be accomplished before it enters
the crop. In this way it will be found
an economical food. Wheat is also
rendered more economical by boiling.
1t is fay orite with fowls.
Whatever may be the method
adopted of feeding fowls, they should
have a fair allowance OF dry grain
each day, or small quantity twice
day, morning and evening. If they
have too much soft and green food,
they will be apt to have diarrhea; if,
on the contrary, they have too much
dry grain, they will suffer in the OPP
posite way. Attention must be paid
to the proper regulation of the diet.
By watchfulness in this respect, dis
ease and death might frequently be
warded off,

Just How She Escaped.

Early in the sos l was railroad
telegraph operator down in Georgia"
said he, land had a mighty narrow
escape from being lynched one day.
A gang Of darkies came along to
where my station was, about three
miles from any human habitation.
They had in their grasp beautiful
young white girl, and they had tied
her fast to one rail OF the track, right
before my eyes. They then stood
there, and pointing revolvers at my
head said if | interfered in any way
they would murder me. Five min
utes before the Atlantic Express was
due they departed, leaving the girl
on the track to be cut in two by the
train. was in terrible suspense. l
knew would be called q coward and
q cur if | allowed the girl to be killed,
but was afraid to signal the train to
stop, because l knew the dar<ies
would kill me il did.
But l was going to save my posi-
ton anyhow. Just as the train
passed my signal station l ran down
the track and with pair OF pliers
cut the wire connecting the signal to
the station. BY doing this thought
| could tell the railroad officials that
the vandals had cut the wire so that
could not signal the train. See the
fine point? Well, while was cutting
the wire the wind came up suddenly
and blew a.perfect tornado. Big oak
| trees were blown over so that their
tops touched the ground, and had to
hang on to the track so that l
wouldn't be blown away. Well,
when l went up the track l saw those
darkies running away and supposed
that the girl had been cut in two. |
was prepared to look upon u terrible
sight, but to my great JOY and utter
establishment, she was still alive. L
cut the rope with my pliers and re-
leased her. l carried her tenderly up
to the signal station, bound up the
gashes made in her limbs by the rope,
and"
And whatY' asked somebody.
And l asked her to be my wife"
What did she say?"
"She thanked ME for my bravery
and softly murmured: Yes
Il never found out until two years
afterward. Then 1 met the engineer
Of that very train. He explained to
me that just as the train was about
to strike the girl that heavy gust OF
wind came along. 1t was so power
full that it lifted one side Of the train
over, making it run on one rail for
about 500 feet before it fell back on
the other rail. 1t so happened that
the girl was tied to the rail from
which the wheels raised, and that's
how she escaped"
