THE MILKY WAY
An Interesting Talk by Mr.. B. R.
Baumgardt

Mr.. and Mrs. ]. D. Hooker entertained
the astronomical section of the Southern
California academy of sciences Wednes
day evening in their Adams street home.
b. r. Baumgardt read a paper on ''Thc
MILKY way and What 1t Teaches Us of
the Construction of the Heavens" Mr..
Baumgardt' said that from the earliest
times the milky way had attracted the
attention as we'll as the admiration of
all men whose minds were capable of
rising somewhat above the ordinary af-
fairs of life
We learn that the milky way was con-
sidered by the early Scandinavians as
monster sea serpent, which was en-
circling the world. For us the most in
teresting thing about the milky way is
what 1t teaches US of the construction
or the heavens. Kant believed that the
nebulae which telescopes fail to resolve.
into stars are in reality universes of
stars, so far away that all their. collected
light dwindles into one pale, milky
glow. But we have no warrant for the
truth of this scheme: in fact so far as
we can ascertain, all the stars are NOV
ing in proper motion which curve them
now this way, now another way, as the
attraction preponderates for the time.
Some few interesting special facts
connected with the milky way were
brought forth, which proved of general
interest, one of which was that its
greatest luster is attained in the con-
stellation Cruz in the southern hemi
sphere, and it's greatest brilliancy in the
northern hemisphere, at a point exactly
opposite from this. in the constellation
Cygnus. The average magnitude of the
stars composing the milky way is be.
tween the ninth and tenth order.

ORANGE, June 9.-Regular Corre-
spondence) AS a number of Bonnie Brae
lemon trees have been planted in this Sec
