TORY.

vided only that every piece of glass is
ground precisely according to its po-
sition on the complete convex surface.
The principle of optics involved is
this: In looking into a telescope, the
eyes are fixed not upon the lens but up
on the point where the incoming rays
of light are focused.
The Importance of the invention of
the sectional lens will be the better real
lied when one considers the tremen-
dous difficulty of making very large
lens. The object glass of the telescope
in Lick observatory is SO inches in diam,
eter, ard it took months and months of
work, months and months of repeated
failure to get proper results. The
Yerkes telescope has 40-inch lens, the
largest ever made. With all the precau-
tons exercised, with the thousands and
thousands of dollars spent on the work.
these lens are sadly deficient, after all.
A microscope containing material of
the same quality could nat be used in
any nice work.

AS the slightest blister or other ir-
regularity necessitates a new pouring
the difficultyof Incorporation increases
greatly with the size of the mold. But
1t is primarily the danger attendant
upon the cooling process that has set an
absolute limit to the size. The surface
OF the glass cools and contracts rapidly,
while the mass within is still hot and
presses outward. Though months are
allowed for the glass to cool, disloca-

Itoo anected perceptfD1y Dy changes of
temperature. Each small glass can
disturb its focus only in proportion to
its size. And If there are ten sections
across the diameter, the disturbance
can be only one-tenth as great as in
same sized lens made in single piece.
Mr.. Gathman has built telescope
with seven-inch sectional lens at his
private observatory in Chicago. The
instrument is working admirably, and
is said to be the equal of the telescope at
the Northwestern university, which has
a fine objective of 1917 inches. Gath
mann has become wealthy through sew
eral other successful inventions, not
ably submarine torpedo boat, the
plans of which have been adopted by the
German navy. He expects to use a part
of his money in building telescope
with 60-inch objective. If sufficient
capital is provided, he will at once ven-
ture upon the making of lens twice
that diameter. According to the claims
OF the inventor, sectional lens of 80
inches will be twice as clear. and there
fore twice as powerful as single-glass
lens of the same size. Moreover, as
the difficulty of making large molds is
removed, it will be much easier to make
q sectional lens of 100 or 100 inches, than
a single lens, like that of the Yerlies
telescope. AS the power of lens va
ries directly as the square of the diam
eter, the sectional lens of a12o inches
would be twice as clear and admit nine
times as much light as the Yerkes lens;
that is, it would be IS times as power
full. The tremendous power of such

Electric Buses in London

Experiments on a Comparatively large
scale have been made in London, accord
ing to the Electrical Review, published in
that city, as to the pos Utility of operating
horseless omnibuses by electricity. Ac.
cording to this article the operating ex-
penses of 800 omnibuses by horses for SIX
months in London, covering a total mile
age of 10000, 900 miles, is given as 1O.84c
per omnibus mile, exclusive of drivers
conductors, office and general adminissra-
ton expenses. Trials of electrical omni.
buses after runnipg a total of 5000 miles
show cost of 4.S8c per mile, exclusive of
the same items. The power is supplied
ny storage batteries. The prospectus of
company to run such omnibpses has been
issued. While these figures are probably
not entirely reliable, yet the lact that at
tenpts are being made on large scale to
adopt horseirss vehicles in practical work
evidences more than transient interest in
this important industrial development.
