PROFESSOR fALs ON 1886.
Bis Announcement of the Critical Day.
For the Coming Year.

HOT the coming 4eAEs
Professor Rudolf FaIb of Liepzio, the
discoverer of the critical days." in
giving their number, order and dates
for the coming year in the columns Of
The Deutsche Kaiser~Kalender for 1895,
states that observations begun in 1858
convinced him that the influence Of the
attraction of the moon and sun upon the
waters of the sea had similar effect
upon the ocean of the earth's atmos-
phere as well as upon the liquid and
volatile masses contained in the interior
of our globe He discovered that great
atmospheric disturbances, shocks Of
earthquake and explosions in mines
were surprisingly often ooincident with
the days upon which the most extensive
tides and other oceanic connections
were caused by the Influence of either
moon or sun, or both. These periods
Professor Falb distinguishes by the
name of ''critical days" because they
mark on the one side periodical turn
Ing points" in the equilibrium of the
neptunic, plutonio and atmospheric
masses above mentioned, and ON the
other side afford the measure and means
for computing the degree and effect OF
lunar and solar forces upon our planet.
The individual consultations affect
ing each for itself an increase of these
forces are: First, the perigee-that is,
the time when moon and earth are near
est to one another; second, the moons
equatorial position; third, the perihe-
lion, when our globe is nearest the sun;
fourth, the suns equatorial position;
fifth, the syzygies, or new moon and
full moon; sixth, the lunar or solar
eclipses
The coming year will be especially
notable for the fact of its three most
critical days being accompanied by
eclipses. In mentioning the dates in
their different orders and grades of in
dividual effectiveness Professor FaIb
takes care to state that the results of the
strongest attractions often precede their
Critical days, as theoretically COM
puted, by one or two days, while those
of lesser import may be from two to
three days later than periodically fixed.
The latter may also be the case at the
time of critical days Of the first order
whenever long continuing and extern
sive atmospheric pressure or eastern
winds prevailed previous to these dates.
The following are the critical days"
for 1895:
Of the first order, Sept. IS, March IL,
Aug. 20. Feb 8, Oct Is, April 9, July
90 and Jan. II.
OF the second order, May 9, Nov. IS,

Sex DISQUALIFIED Her.

The Cook county Oils. board Of re-
view decided that the name of Miss Kate
Kane could not be printed as a oandi-
date for probate judge The petition on
which Miss Kane made her application
was signed by 3,175 voters of the Re-
publican, Democratic, Peoples and So.
cialistic parties, and she has been a
praoticing attorney for years. The deoi-
sion was broadly that the sex of the
nominee disqualified her. Judge Scales
said, in reference to the action of the
board, that women were not yet enti-
tied to vote for county officers, and that
woman was not qualified to hold the
position of probate judge.

TRYING a BIG TELESCOPE.
Preliminary Test of the Forty Inch Lenses
For the Yerkes Ohserxatnrx

In Cambridge on Sunday evening
there was an experimental test of the
great 40 inch telescope now being made
for the University Of Chicago by Pro
fessor G. E. Hale, the astronomer, un-
der whose dictatorship the new Yerkes
observatory Of the University of Chi
oago will enter upon its career; friend
Of his. rising young physicist last
connected with the Massachusetts in
stitute of technology; Mr.. Clark and his
assistants. The great lenses, the largest
that the world has ever seen, each Of
them equal in diameter very nearly to
an ordinary buggy wheel, weighing
with their mountings more than l, 200
pounds, were maintained in their posi-
ton high in air by great steel tube,
63 feet in length, and seeming in the
dimness of the night almost intermina-
BILE. The ponderous tube is poised mid
way upon great shaft, which permits
free motion in every direction, and this
again is perched upon a massive pier of
masonry capable OF upholding in safety
the tons of weight which it is called
upon to bear.
Mounting the stepladder which serv.
ed as temporary observing chair, Pro.
lessor Hale placed his critical eye at
che tube, and then in deliberate success.
sion applied the different tests known
80 astronomers. To the uneduoated eye
the glass on this preliminary test was
truly at perfection, but the trained eyes
of the experts caught points at times
whereby the delicaoy of the instrument
might be increased. Then the planet
Mars came within range of the instrv
nent
The first view of this object by Pro
fessor Hale brought forth explanations
of delight, for this telescope oy far ex-
ceeded in light collecting ability any
instrument which he had previously
turned upon the planet. Mars showed
itself as a great reddish yellow disk,
whose clean cut edges attested the ex-
cellence of the instrument. Its bright
ness with 40 inches of aperture was al.
most sufficient to blind the eye, and its
great disk was figured with the dark
and light markings which define its to-
Biography. For an hour or more the plan
ct was kept in view, delighting every
one of the assembled group with the
splendor of the sight. Then began a
search for the satellites. These are faint |
stars. visible at their best only with |
good apertures, and SO close to the
planet as to be hardly beyond the glare |
of light which it diffuses. The outer
one, Deimos, was easily caught, but
for some time Phobos, its companion,
could not be discerned 1t was at last
seen by Mr. Clark almost against tho
body of its principal, and for nearly
half All hour it was followed by the diff.
ferent members of the company.
The lenses, excellent as they have
proved to be, will again be placed in
the shop and with the knowledge gain
ed of their minor inaccuracies of figure
they will again undergo local treatment
until they reach that high standard
which has placed the Clark glasses al
ways in the van in point of interesting
discovery. Tran.

70 Abolish Toasts.

A report for which some people In
all civilized countries have been longing
for years has at last come from-uf ali
places in the world-Hungary. II is an
agitation against after dinner speech
making. The Pesther Lloyd publishes in
facsimile ali invitation to dinner which
bears note to the effect that guests are
desired to use their influence toward
abolishing all toasts. 1t appears, h9a
ever, that such is the force of habit this;

die of the repast to propose a toast, ITO

Flowers Dear In New York.

Violets cost only so cents bunch,
but the punches are very small. For 90
cents the Broadway florists make up lit
tie punches fov the buttonhole of mems
coats, but they contain only one-third Of
the original bunch. When a man makes
that kind of purchase, he is likely to
conclude that there is violet trust or
else that enough people are not engaged
ia the cultivation Of violets. The best
chrysanthemums sell on Broadway for
81 each. AS cultivators would grow
rich selling them at cents each, some
one must be making goad for the late
hard times, New York Correspondents
