Schiaparelli.

Schiaparelli, the astronomer who first
discovered the SO called canals" Of
Mars, did SO with much smaller tele-
scope than those in use in many other
observatories at that time. And yet he
is very nearsighted man. Garrett p.
Serviss Of Brooklyn. in speaking Of his
first interview with the eminent Italian,
said that Schiapareli would hold q Wis
itor's card within five or six inches of
his eyes in order to decipher it. The sin.
gular part Of this story is not that q
man with such an infirmity should be
able to Guido other astronomers, for
keenness Of vision depends rather upon
the retina than the convexity Of the
lenses Of the eye. and the eyepiece Of q
telescope can DO focused so as to suit
the latter. But it does seem q little odd
that the gifted scientist in question
should habitually refrain from wearing
eyeglasses. Possibly he has theory as
to the effect of their use upon his visual
bowers.

MICHIGAN is paying dearly for re.
turning the republican party to full
power in that state. The taxes have
been doubled, corruption runs riot
in high places. and IN insolvent
machine" rides rough-shod over all
men who dare to protest against the
course pursued. The republican
party has regained power in New
York. and the oldest republican
paper in New York City says that
the state capital lis infested BY po-
litical crooks, brigands and bucca-
neers." The people Of Illinois have
object lessons In New York and
Michigan which cannot fail to deter
them from returning the republican
party and its corrupt machine To

WEIGHT POSSIBILITIES OF CARP.


II Wen Fed and TREATED, Thsy Attain -
Enornoas Size.
Big Ash chronicles are always inter
esting. Attention il just now being be-
slowed upon the weight possibilities Of
carp. These fish are notoriously long
lived. and. provided they are not caught
before they have had a chance Of living
long. and, psovided again. they have
few enemies and sclicitous keepers to
supplement their natural food supply
regularly, it Is only natural that they
ehouN grow to a relatively great size.
Under normal conditions, of course, they
do not exceed . few pounds, and. as it
is the normal conditions that prevail.
discussion Of what they might attain
may be regarded BY not few as some
thing Of a futility. Still, they are some
times placed in peculiarly favorable cir
cumstances, and, as the question is
really concerned with what weight they
can reach, 1t is not such futility after
all
We must 60 abroad for the biggest
carp Of which angling history has to
tell. In private pond in Saxony there
used to be pair Of breeding carp whose
united weight in Saxony measure q per
cent heavier than English) reached 81
pounds. The male was 43 pounds and
the female 4S pounds. By good living
and attention they even exceeded this
In IL years the male put on 0 pounds
and the female IL pounds. The pond
which afforded q home for these crea-
lures was o famous one. In one year
1000 pounds Of carp were taken from it
to say nothing Of tench and jack. In
this same pond-which, by the way, COW
cred IL acres-the proprietor had left
several carp for breeding. Five of these
weighed 103 pounds Saxon, and the
largest Of the five, Spiegcl carp, aged
16 years, drew in the scale BIZ pounds
English. The age Of the two first alluded
to could not be estimated. They were on
the estate when it was purchased from
another family, 80 years before.
We have never to our personal kpowl-
edge known carp that exceeded %
pounds to be caught in English waters.
A brace which weighed 35 pounds was
once presented to the late Lord Eyre
mont. A curious thing about these big
fish is their tameness. Mr.. Pennell tells
Us he has seen carp in the garden ponds
Of Rotterdam eagerly following visitors
about to be fed, while one immense fell
low, with side as broad as fitch of
bacon and an appetite that seemed in.
satiable, actually pursued him for rear-
ly 100 yards along the side Of the bank
until his stock Of bread had run out.
This fish, he adds, must have weighed
10 pounds. Their rate Of growth has
been approximately computed to be
8 pounds during the first six years and
9 pounds before tho tenth year.-Pall
Mall Gazette.
