The Russian Academy of of Science has
elected Prof. Simon Newcomb, the dis
] tinguiShed astronomer of Washington, an
honorary member of that body. Prof.
Newcombs portrait is hung in the OBJ
servatory at Pulkowa, the Russian gov
| eminent having, in 1887, ordered that II
| be painted for the collection of portraits
! OF famous astronomers. The academy mas
also conferred the same honor on two
distinguished British scientists-Lord Kel-
win, professor OF natural philosophy at
! the University of Glasgow, and Lord Ray
| leigh, scientific adviser to the corporation
OF Trinity House.
Prof Keller of the Allegheny observ-
atory has for some time past been devot-
ing mis- attention to the classification of
the stars. The first attempt at classlfica-
ton was made by the astronomer Her
schel, who grouped them according 10
their colors, the only method then posi-
BILE when the spectroScope and all the
marvellous revelations that follow in its
wake had not yet come into view on the
horizon of the scientific world. The nrSt
classification by means OF the new lnVen-
ton was due TO Rutherford of America
and Geschi OF Europe. BY them the
stars were divided into four distinct types
or classes
The main difficulty in constructing a
large modern telescope lies in the glass.
Enormous difficulties have to be en-
countered in order to obtain a pure glass
without a nav. In this respect the great
est success has been obtained py Alvin
n.
the Lick observatory III California. The
lens in this wonderful instrument is 30
inches in diameter and without a flaw.
In his famous works at Jena, DR.. Schott
has managed to cast a piece of glass
which comes very near the dimensions of
the Lick glass. There are two lenses. one
OF flint glass, the other OF crown glass.
They are polished by Steinheli i'll Munich,
and each has a diameter of something
over % inches
During the last few years number of
mountain stations for meteorological pur
poses have been established in various
parts OF the world. Clement Wragge, who
was active in promoting the scheme for
such an observatory on Ben Nevis, the
highest peak in Great Britain, is endeav-'
oring to secure a similar institution for
the summit of Mount Wellington, near
Hobart in Tasmania. This post is only
APO feet high, or $50 feet lower than that
o.. Ben Nevis. But Mr.. Wragge hopes
eventually to see other observatories on
such heights in Australia as Mount Cork,
which has an elevation OF 1900 feet Lord
Kelvin and DR.. Buchan, the distinguished
Scottish meteorologist, have expressed
hearty apprOVal of the idea.

Truthfulness and Forcibilitv.

Philadelphia Ledger: Truth has
many powerful enemies against which
to struggle. and to which it is too often
sacrificed. Fear, passionate desire.
envy, malice, greed, shame and a host
OF other emotions come into conflict
with truth and prove it's deadly foes
When they take possession of the mind
justice departs and truth is often ruth
lessly stricken down. It has, however,
another opponent, which is less appar-
ent and less open to criticism, but not
less effective in its assaults This is
the desire of being forcible, emphatic.
of creating an impression, of being in
terestlng in conversation, brilliant in
writing, eloquent in oratory, successful
in debate. These are all good things
and worthy of being striven for in their
respective places. At first sight it
does not appear that they need ever
interfere with truth or demand that
she be sacrificed to them Yet they
often do. and the reason is not far to
seek. The desire for forcible utterance
tends towards emphasizing only one
side OF question, whereas truth is
many sided. To present one side of
anything in strong colors and 10 leave
the rest unsaid does not appear at
first TO SAVIOR of untruth. but while
preserving the letter it certainly vio-
lulCS liz SJlill anu conveys a wrong
impression. Yet how almost universally
this is done And when to this one
sided presentation is added the effort
to write in piquant and racy manner
stimulating and winning their readers
to partake of their views, do not the
blows aimed at an antagonist really
fail upon the cause of Justice and
truth"

causes good in themselves, but pleaded
in the same one-sided manner. The
same is true in the daily details of or

seem hard at first to tell an interest

whose store water had begun to leak

building. In fact, if the annunciatiors had
not told the tale when they did all OF his
stock would have been rulnSd.
This system does away with any lntrl-
cate locking methods for iank vaults. 1t
is a good thing TO SO compiicate the COM
bination of a safe that no irregularity can
occur concerning it. Some New York
banks, however, use such systems. In the
three combinatioLs, each one in the
hands of three sets OF bank offlclals-
Cryptogramatic combinations, IN Wnlch a
changeable key would be needed TO work
them out, have also been tried IL mas
also been suggested that the complna-
tons of all the banks in the clearing
house association be operated by electric
ity capable of being worked only from
the central protective station. This would
be combination turning at long range
indeed. An instrument for carrying out
such "a scheme has actually Deen IN
vented 1t was on exhibition IN New
York. The operating machine had the APP
pearance of a piano key board. Connect
ing wires led from this to the safe door,
On pressing certain keys electromagnetic
were operated, causing the bolts and bars
TO move backward and forward at the
proper moment.
THE SYSTEM SHOULD BE USED IN
PRISONS-WHY IT IS NOT.
But the great moral of this method of
bank protection lies outside of the depart
ment in which it is already used. The
inference TO be drawn sis this: If it will
keep burglars outside of banks it will
keep them inside of prisons. The question
of jail deliveries is not inconsiderable, if
the moral structure of the community is
to be considered, and here at last is
system that will absolutely prevent any
prisoner escaping from jail. a unique
scheme was suggested a few years ago.
1t was to construct the cell wall and
doors of iron tubes instead of iron bars
These tubes were to be filed with COM
pressed air or else a vacuum was to be
made in them. The theory was that an
escaping prisoner in attempting to file
through his cell walls would spring a
leak in the tubes, and thus sound an
alarm But the defect of this system
was that the tubes were sure to leak.
Under the bank protection system, how
ever, the prisoner could not move a bar
without having it show on the needles.
Each cell would be connected with its
own calvanometer, every door, window,
constantly under surveillance. To bride
a keeper would not avail. One prison Off
cial would be unable to aid in the eS-
cape without the fact being known at
once. 1t should be adopted in every
prison, and it was offered in New York
state but the official who heard the plea
of the inventor listened patiently while
the latter explained the system, then he
delivered himself thus: Your invention.

bar is in its proper place. At closing
time every rday a private signal is trans
mitted to the central station The current
IS turned on. but if any window or door
be open, or bolt drawn, a bell rings and
the galvanometer needle points to the
fact. Word is signaled back that some
thing is wrong and whatever it is must
be rectified When everything is finally
in its place the bell stops ringing, the
nedle comes TO a rest. and the circuit is
complete. Thus many a forgotten sky
light or transom is closed when il would
otherwise have been left open all night.
Quite difference from the old-time
systems wherein the cutting of a wire
would prevent any signal or alarm being
sent in. In this case the cutting of the
wire sends in the alarm.

BANKS ARE GUARDED.

enough protected with all this, nearly

In the midst of fancied' security, these
men are not allowed to doze off as in
days of yore. They are kept almost
constantly on the move. IN various parts
of the building are placed push buttons
The Waterman on guard must push these
buttons in regular order. The time
that each button is pushed is recorded
on a time recorder in the central Office
If the buttons are pushed out of their

At this time nearly all of the 14O

follows. If the family is out of town
only authorized members of it capable
OF proving theid, identity by means of
recorded signatures are allowed to enter
a house while it is in charge of the
watchmen. Complications sometimes oc-
cur, but the owner of a house himself
would not be allowed to enter his own
house if he could not prove his sigma

peared and with a show of buster de-
manded that they be allowed TO enter
the residence of their father. or brother
or uncle, as the case may be, but they
did not so in without the necessary
sanction. Very often the controlling
members of q family have given orders
not to admit certain of their relations TO
their city homes. OF course the watch
