ANOTHER BIG TELESCOPE.
A Combination of Rejecting and
Refraoting Instruments.

1t has been announced that a re-
fractiug telescope is to be built for
the end of-tbe-century Worlds Fair
in Paris, having an aperture of forty
eight inches. The Nerkes telescope,
soon to be set up at Lake Geneva,
Wis for the University of Chicago,
will have an aperture of forty inches,
and that of the Lick telescope (the
largest refractOr now in service in the
world) is thirty-siX. But it is pro-
posed to have the tube OF the French
glass immovable in horizontal posi-
sition, and to throw into it images of
the heavenly bodies by means of
siderostat or heliostat, huge mirror,
outside of the observatory and adjust
able, so as to take a ray of light from
q moving body and continually reflect
it in precisely the same direction.
The main story of this great project
has been confirmed by Ambrose Swa-
Zey, of the firm of Warner * SwaZey,
of Cleveland, who make telescope
mountings, but there are two reasons
for doubling whether the undertaking
will yield any better results than our
American telescopes, If as good.
In the first place one mustn't judge
a glass by its size alone. Much depends
on the quality of the material and the
fine workmanship on it after it is
roughly shaped 10 its proper dimen-
siOns. Among small telescopes, for
instance, one may find an instrument
Of three inches aperture that is worth
more than another OF four and half.
Although the latter would admit more
than twice "a much light, the former
might have been corrected for color
and roundnesS Of image so as TO allow
the use of a higher magnifying power
in the eyepiece. Sharpness of defini-
a mr. of hn a E
fraction rings seen around a star in ali
telescopes, and other optical qualities
with which only experts are familiar,
are requisite in a good instrument;
and 1t Is not every maker who takes
the trouble or has the necessary skill
TO supply them. And this is particu-
larly true in regard to large lenses.
M. Mantois, successor to the firm OF
Fell & Sons, Paris, has agreed TO fur
nish the rough discs of crown and
flint glass. He did the same for the
unfinished Yerkes instrument, and
his predecessors provided the raw ma
terial for the Lick objective. 1t is
probable that this important part of
the work will be we'll done. But the
shaping OF the discs is the all essen
tial matter. This is task on which
AIvan Clark's sons sometimes spend
two or three years. The Henry
Brothers, OF Paris, who are telescope
makers as we'll as astronomers OF re-
pute, have been invited to grind and
finish the proposed lenses, and they
probablywill do so, although they have
expressed reluctance to assume such
responsibility. Every great glass Is
an experiment, especially when it Is
of unprecedented size. And it would
be rash to predict with confidence tae
outcome of the highly interesting
venture.
Furthermore, the intensity OF any
image obtained by a siderOstat is not
so great by about three Fights as that
ct one formed by q refractor aimed
directly at the star, nebula or other
object under eXaminatio d. What

TWO FAMOUS CUP TAKERS.
Cranfeld and Sycamore to Manage
the Valkyrie.

Some British yachting writer's are
now commenting IN a testing way on
the fact that Lord Dunraven has
seen fit to employ two shippers to
race the new Fslkyrie. The Yacht
ing World says: The Valkyrie will
have one skipper for the starboard
side, and another for the port" An
other well known British writer says:
"Eo doubt the fact that the Valkyrie
will have two shippers will cause
much mirth IN America, because it
was never thought necessary to do
such thing before"
William Cranfeld is big bodied,
strong, but clearly built man. Fair
faced and blonde bearded, he has a
genial manner, with just twinkle in
his left eye indicating that he knows
his way around. His bearing and
demeanor suggest at once a true
specimen of the Saxon seaman, and
also a thoroughbred and we'll TODD
racing shipper.
William Cranfeld has now been
several years with Lord Dunraven,
having succeeded that fine old Itchen
Ferry skipper, Tom Diaper, in the
Valkyrie in her second season. His
sailing of the May-George Watson's
bonniest forty-for Mr.. John Dun
cuff, In 1886, brought him promin-
emily into notice, and made it plain
that il ever Lemons best deeds were
to be emulated by one of his own
race and name here was the man to
accomplish the task.
Accomplish the task he did, too,
and the winning of twenty eight
prizes, worth about $500, in the
May; seventy eight prizes valued at
S16,S50 In three years in the Yarana,
and fifteen prizes representing about
$500 In the Vslkyrie In 1891, are
quite up to anything ever done by
anyone.
Captain Sycamore was born IN
1856, and IS what may be called
Colne native, his parents being ma
tives of Rowhedge, on the banks OF
the Colne. at an early age he took
to the sea. He was skipper OF the
well known Heather Chinee and the
celebrated Babe, the crack q ton
boat of seasons 1S90-91. The first
season he took with her twenty
prizes; second season, thirty nine, of
which thirty six were first prizes and
three second.
In 1892 he took command of Ad-
miral Montague Corsair, 40 rater,
and that season won twenty-five
prizes, thirteen firsts, including the
Queens Cup. The Admiral then
built Vendetta, and with her Captain
Sycamore took nineteen prizes,
eleven frsts. Carina followed, and
his prize list amounted to thirty one
prizes, including the Queens Cup
and twenty four firsts. In one of
the races at Cowes last season the
German Emperor sailed with them
In Carina and himself presented
Captain Sycamore with handsome
diamond scarf pin.

Stone ella ma That His Bondsmen
withheld Money Due Him From an
Estate.
Mr.. ". f, Stone, who is accused Of
embezzliug $1349 from Kranich Il Bach,
bat who was released on 500 bond, re
turned to the city yesterday.
Mr.. Felix Kramer, OF New YORK, the
agent for Kranioh and Bach, is here,
looking after tho interests of tha Com
pany in the case. Col John W Hins-
dale represents the prosecution.
One Of Mr.. stones friends told noe yes
terday the strange story Of Mr. Stones
side of the case. lie said that two reia-
tiges Of Mr. Stones who we're settling up
an estate in which Stone vas interested
were on Stones bond, as agent Of the
piano makers, TO the extent of two or
three thousand dollars. Stone
Kept collecting without remittiDg to
the company until he was over
thousand dollars behind. The com
pany at last wrote him a pressing letter.
He wrote them to look TO his bOndsmen
for the amount; that they had withheld
money owing TO E'n from the estate,
and that was tba only way ne knew 10
reach them. Der 4e company, instead
Of going to his handsman, got after him,
and had him brought to Rale and
put in the county jail here.
This is the story that his friend told,
Mr.. Stone has been living ia Hyde
county for some time, and has no near
neighbors. 1t is said that the sheriff
took two r1en along with him to make
the arrest, but Mr. Stone unders God the
matter at once, and made not the slight
| est resistance.
A gentleman saw him on the street
yesterday, and said "That man was a
college mate of mine, and one of the
brightest minds ever knew"

THE COTTON CROP.

Capt. Thomas Thinks the Crop will
be Z 800 ZOO Bales; that With Prop
err Marketing will Reach s liz and 8
Cents--Farmers Ought Not TO Rush
the Crop TO Market bus Distribute the
Sales Throughout the Year.
A reporter had a chat yesterday morn
ing with Capt. J. J. Thomas about the
probable price of this years cotton crop
and the wisdom of the policy advocated
by many of holding back the cotton for
higher prices. Capt. Thomas has stud
led cotton for many years. is a prudent
and careful business man, and his views
will have interest and profit for our
readers. He said:
The conservative estimate of the cot
ton crop for '95-'G is $500, 900 bales, with
no unusual excess Of old cotton carried
over. With cotton mills, both in the
New England States and especially in
the South, running to their full capacity,
some running day and night to fill their
orders, with more corn, which means
more meat raised by the farmers through
out the South, with smaller debts con-
tracted to make these crops, with a bet
ter feeling in all lines of trade, all con-
spire to bring about renewed confidence
among ur people and the financial world.
We have often heard that the price Of
cotton is put up about planting time,
/ to stimulate production Cotton has
gone up and just now is not planting
| time, but 1t happens to be gathering
time. All those who have noticed or
kept up with the condition Of the crop,
/ very well know that the crop will not ex-
coed, if it comes up 10, the requirements
Of The American crop. Such being the
/ case, it behOoves the planter, if he will
/ consult his interest, to market only a
/ lin ted quantity of his crop. I am
glad to see that this sentiment is
/ prevalent and growing throughout the
entire cotton bait, while the sales can not
| be equally distributed for the twelve
months, say $50, 600 bales per month,
/ based upon an estiIate Of 2 million
bales, yet it can be so marketed as to
prevent any accumulation of stock for
which there is not an &C i've and good
/ demard at prices that will compensate
the grower. The farmer or holder Of
cotton will find no difficulty in obtain
ing cash advance upon his cotton to
meet any necessity for the immediate
use Of funds to liquidate any claim due b.
him. If this practice, which has been SO
auspiciously inaugurated, will be faith
fully adhered to, the price of cotton will
not only be maintained at cents, but
Will, in all probability, advance to IL,
8 al d as many suppose, to 10 cents by
next March"

The North Carolina Trainer to Part
Company With the Rich Sports
man.
The New York World in connection
with its forecast of the First Special
Race, the beginning of the meet of the
Brooklyn Jockey Club this week, says
"There is considerable speculation
among turfmen as to August Belmont's
trainer for next season, Mr.. Belmont
and his present trainer, A. J. Joyner,
having agreed to part company. There
is the best Of feeling between them,
but Joyner will have other interests, and
Mr.. Belmont is searching for some one
to take his place. Two names have been
mentioned, one a leading trainer and
the other Byron McOlell4nd. 1t is not
probable that McClelland, who is now a
rich man, would care to train for any
body, and he denies the truth Of the re
port.
'While Mr.. Belmont's horses have not
been particularly successful this season,
he is a good sportsman, and blames no
body, least of all his trainer. The best
trainer who ever put saddle on horse
could not make great performers of un,
reliable brutes like Jack Of Spades,
Merry Prince and Song and Dance. No
conceivable care or prudence of skill
could have prevented Hastings getting
sick, or Keenad going lame That was
simply the luck of the game Mr.. Bel
mont is determined to have great
stable, however, and next season, with
Henry of Navarro to lead the string
and some highly tried and superbly bred
yearlings to draw from, he ought to
rank high among the successful own
ers. Mr.. Belm0Dt's Margraye, who was
thought to be a phenomenal coli, seems
to have great deal Of speed, but no
ability to go a long route. In the Great
Eastern be had the race won at five fur
longs, but he tired p9rCeptibly after
that 1t is true that he ran from the ex
IRENE outside Of the track and covered
perhaps thirty yards more ground than
any other horse in the race, but even al
loving for all that he should have been
able to have reversed weights with Ore

were a colt of high class. Col. Thomp-
sons FLY deserves all the praise she has
received. She has speed and courage
and sta nina; bat the colts she Eas beaten
have beaten each other repeatedly, and
next season most of them will probably
be strue Cling in selling races.
Mr.. Joyner is North Caroliniap, and
is well-known among horsemen ali over
the State. He has made quite reputation
as a trainer, and an exceptionally good re-
cord as head trainer at the noted Bel
mont stables.
