down, and the satellite is kept from fall.
ing by the speed with which it rcvolves.
The heavier the planet the faster around
spin the satellites, and so from the speed
OF Uranus satellites Il measure Of the
mass of the planet is afforded. Were
Uranus heavier than he is, his satellites
would reyolve more quickly than they
do; were he lighter, the satellites would
take longer period for their revolution.
We shall hardly have glimpse Of
either Venus or Jupiter during April.
The two are engulfed in the long rays
of gold that shoot with tremendous
beauty from the sun and eiiectually
pale even the brilliant coloring OF these
lustrous gems of the sky. They have n
little meeting of their own on the 2sth,
the day following thaton which Jupiter
is in conjunction with the sun Their
two disks almost touch, and were we
only able 20 penetrate the dazzling sun
light, a picture US rare and as beautiful
rs that exhibited when last they came
together on the eastward side of the sun
would reward us.
Mercury is now among the morning
stars and his fastening toward his most
distant western position from the sun,
which he reaches on the 18th, when he
viii be almost 21o away. At this point
he turns and approaches the sun, with
which lie is in conjunction early IN
June, when he swings around the
eastern portion of his route once again
to approach old Sol.
Neptune, the furthest away of ali the
planets, has but very little to distinguish
him this month. He is an evening star,
is still in the constellation of Taurus,
and is approaching the sun. He comes
above the eastern horizon at about II
o'clock in the evening, but the hour is
getting earlier and earlier each succeed
ing night as the planet gets nearer and
nearer the time of conjunction with the
sun.
While Jupiter, the brilliant, has faded
away and has passed the less conspicu-
GUS Mars on his way to the sun, the
latter continues to shine with his usual
Steadlness, coming into view us the high
coloring Of these beautiful sunsets of
early Spring melt into more sober gravs,
then to take upon themselves tho sombre
hues of night, The warlike planet and
Luna have their customary monthly
meeting on the 10Th, but the fulling
crescent passes ut somewhat too great a
distance for an enjoyable scenic display.
Ever since 5aturn's opposition on the
18th of March he has been an evening
star, and has no doubt already begun to
prove an attractive feature in the even
ing sky, as he is to be found shining
| there soon after sunset, and sin the
| best position for observation that he will
be for the year His rings are now
| slowly opening and will continue to do
SO until about the close of the century,
when they will be open to their widest
extent, the northern side being illumi-
mated. After seven or eight years the
rings will again disappear, and the cir
cult will be completed about 1915. The
southern side will then be illuminated
and the planet will be in its brightes,
aspect.

Gently when the prisoner suddenly

Of great blocks OF ice, stretching quite
across the stream, and the man jumped
safely from block to block and reached
the opposite bank. The policeman fol.

plunging into the river, at imminent

policeman. He succeeded in getting
the officer to land, and then the police

state the case to the authorities and try

DR. MURRAY ON GAMBLING.
Lecture to ths students of Goldey VIII
mington Com lmerclnl CnlIege.


"Gambling the Cause Of Commercial
Failures was the subject of lecture
which the Rev. W. l.. S. Murray, n. d.,
of Dover. delivered to the students of
Goldey Wilmington Commercial College
yesterday week, The lecture ubounded
with good advice and the audience. which
was large, appeared to be deeply inter
ested.
DR. Murray snd it had been stated that
sl7,001,OO3 are embezzled in one year, the
embczalement Of nine-tcnths of which is
caused by gambling. Gambling he added
causes SSU,QO0,UDO to change hands in one
day III Chrstendom, or Sl2S 100000 in
one year.
Gambling, he declared, is illegal. dis
honorable and dishonest because it does
not give the equivalent for what is asked.
There are bills before the Legislatures of
the country 10 lcgali2e gambling which
ought never to be posed. The passage of
the bill i'll New Jersey TO legalize pool
selling and booSmaking has aroused op.
position because il is a measure calculated
TO promote dishonesty.
He told the students they should avoid
gambling because 1t wuuid destroy their
interest in business by absorbing them
through the passion for playing. Men
have become so absorbed in play as to for
get their families, business and proper
hours for sleep and recreation.
Gambling, he continued, should be
avoided because il puts one with the worst
instead Of the best people, Nou may
begin high up but it will lead you finally
to the lowest, Every honest business
develops good men. For instance, traffic
gave us II Peter Cooper, a Peabody and
Others, the press gave us a Greedy, Il
Raymond and Childs, law gave us a
Webster and q Burke, art gave lis an
Angelic and astronomy gave Us Newton
| and a Young, but gambling gives us moth
ing hut thieves.
lie talked for half an hour, and in con.
clusion referred appruyiug!y to the work
of Mr.. Quinn, the reformed gambler.
Before dismissing the students Professor
Goldey emphasized some of DR.. Murray
remarks and urged the avoidance of intern
perance and gambling.
