GUARD ATTACKED BY
A BURLY CONVICT
Desperate Struggle at San Quentin
Prison With Prisoner De-
tected Violating the Rules.

SAN QUENTIN PRISON, Sept. g.
Thomas Molloy, a strapping convict serv-
ing ten years from San Francisco for bur-
glary, was detected in a violation of the
prison rules this morning by Guard Ran
dolph, and when an attempt was made
to remove him to the dungeon he fought
so desperately that Captain Russell and
Turnkey Mcclure had to be called to the
guards assistance. Randolph received a
hard blow in the region of the stomach,
and was temporarily incapacitated for the
performance of his duties. but was not
seriously injured
When Molloy was detected in the mis-
demeanor he was in his cell and an at
tempt to remove him to the dungeon led
to tumult, the other convicts rushing to
the windows of their cells and yelling
encouragement to, the prisoner at the, top
of their voices. Molloy was finally lodged
in the SOLITARY and will be kept there
until the Prison Board, acts upon his case
next Saturday Warden Aguirre states
that this is the first time the prisoner has
given the officials any trouble.

IMPORTANT STELLAR DISCOVERY
AT THE LICK OBSERVATORY
POlariS, the North Star, Found to Be Composed
of Three Bodies That Are Con-
tinualIy Revolving.

SAN JOSE, Sept. "a discovery of
great scientific and considerable popular
interest has just been made by Professor
Campbell with the great telescope of the
Lick Observatory. 1t is that Polaris, or
the north star, doubtless the best known
star in the whole armament, is really
triple system. Two of the bodies in this
system revolve around each other in a
period of four days. and at the same time
move in q much wider sweep around a
third body, in much the same way as
the earth and moon do around the sun.
The separate bodies which compose the
system cannot be seen with the telescope,
nor is it likely that they ever will be
seen with any instrument. Their exist
ence is demonstrated by observations
which need not be explained here the
speed with which a heavenly body is NOV
ing toward or away from the earth can
be measured with a spectroScope at
tached to a telescope. The method has
been known for many years, but II is
only recently that the necessary accu-
Tacy for observations of stars has been
reached by the application of photogra-
ply. There are various ways of check
ing the correctness Of the results. Thus,
as the sun turns on It's axis, one edge
is constantly approaching the earth and
the other is receding from it at the rate
OF about IA miles per second; the spectro-
scope is found to measure this motion
correctly. Again, the velocity with which
the planets are moving in the line Of
slght can be calculated from the known
dimensions of the solar system, and in
this case also the reliability of the spec

troscopic method has been proved. OBJ
servations of stars by this method are
now being made at number of the lead
ing observatories of the world.
According to the laws of motion a BODY
once set in motion, and left to itself, Will
move on forever, in a straight line, with
uniform velocity. Any change whatever
in its motion Indicates the existence or
disturbing force. The great majority

Der of cases the velocity varies, and
these are of great interest to the astron-
omer. 4 star may of course move across
the line of sight, as well as in 1t, but OF
the former motion the spectroscope taxes
no account.
The existence of a revolving system was
proved by this method in the case OF the
famous variable star Algol. 1t had Ions
light of this star were due to eclipses by
a dark companion, and the correctness
of the hypothesis was proved by Fro
feSsor Vogel of Germany in 1883.
Quite a number of similar cases are
now known, fourteen of which, including
the brilliant binary star Capella, have
been discovered at the Lick Observatory.
Polaris is now, however, the most inter-
esting of these. The velocity changes IN
a period of days % hours by about
kilometers or nearly four miles per sec

to several years. 1t may be some time
before this discovery is verified at other
observatories, as the high degree of ac-

SAN FRANCISCO
RIDS ITSELF OF
A HOODOO

A seraphic smile illumtned the counte-
nance of your Uncle Henry after the
game yesterday afternoon. The hoodoo
which had hovered over his aggregation
for weeks was dispelled and the happy
manager whispers to his friends that it
was not through the offices of rabbits
foot, q horseshoe or a three-leafed clover
that fortune beamed once more on the
local hall tossers. He stoutly claims that
timely hits and good all-round base
ball won the game from Sacramento, and
he is telling the truth.
San Francisco defeated the Capital City
nine by dint Of slugging the ball at the
right time and heady playing. To Brock
hoff is due the credit of the first victory
achieved by the nine in some time. It
was Brockhoff who made timely hits and
clever piCk-ups. His playing at short was
a revelation to the fans" who voiced
their appreciation at every opportunity.
The four runs and the six hits scored
by Frisco were, strange to say, made in
two innings. In the third the local play
ers took the lead. which they maintained
till the end of the game. Pyne opened the
inning by singing to right and took sec
ond on Harvey's error. Iberg struck out,
and then little Brockhoff batted out
pretty one to left, and while trying to
steal second was nearly caught between
the bases During the play Pyne scored,
the bail being thrown too late 10 head him
off and Brock" went to third on the
throw. "Scotty' Hnderbrandt flew TO
left. and "Heney'' Krug lifted out a nice
single and BrOckhOff went home. SuIll-
van retired the side with d bunt to
The Gilt Edges did not do anything un-
Ill the sixth. In that inning they escaped
a "wnitewash'' by scoring a lone tally.
Sheehan led off with line drive to left,
and Courtney, in making a desperate ef-
fort TO land the sphere, fell down and
earned an error. Many thought it VAS
an excusable one and that Sheehan, should
have been credited with two-bagger.

lieve," was the reply; "but what ia the
use OF knowing-there are no guns in

said the mayor; "but l am going to
give the governor a salute in spite Of
that, and it will be a royal one" On
the Following day all the light. and
leading of the town assembled at the
railway station to greet the arrival of
the train. AS it approached the plat
form there was a loud explosion, i'm
mediately followed by twenty others.
The train came to a standstill amid a
scene of tremendous excitement. Most
OF the people of the town were fright
ened, but the visitors were still more
alarmed. They had only one solution
they thought Fenians had been at
work, and Lady Darlington received a
severe shock. The mayor was calm.
He explained that he had wished to
give his distinguished visitors an ap-
propriate greeting, and, as there were
no guns in the town, had ordered the
station master to place tw%enty-one fog
signals along the line just beyond the
platform.
