NOVEMBER METEOR SHOWER.
Preparations Being Made for That
Event at Harvard Observatory.

Event at Harvard Observatory.
Preparations are being made on an
extensive scale at the Hazard observ-
atory, Cambridge, for observations to
be made during the meteoric shower
of November. This will be the second
and most important year of the period
during which the earth passes three
times through or near the Leonid
shower. and if the conditions are ia
vorable it is expected that the observa-
lions will give results of great value
to astronomical science. Last year,
when the earth passed through the
front end of the comet, many observa-
tories were handicapped by cloudy
weather on the best night, some of
them only obtaining records of about
400 meteors. At Harvard, however, the
results We're satisfactory, over 800 be-
ing obtained. This year the earth will
strike the center of the comet and on
the principal night. which will prob
ably be that of the 18th of November,
the rneteoric shower will present "a
scene of rare beauty to those who have
the hardihood to sit up until after
midnight to watch for it. Before mid
night there will not be much to reward
the watcher The Harvard observatory
authorities are sending out a circular
with blank forms on which to record
the time, brilliancy, color, etc, of the
meteors observed, to astronomers and
others interested all over the country,
and also to many points in Europe. In
addition, a large special force of assis-
tants will be employed at the observa-
tory in mbridge-Boston Transcript

THE FAULT FINDER !


I am amused at times and al times
affected by nausea by the claims of
certain newspapers of the town to be
! the guardian of the rights of the
plain people and the palladium of
their liberties. At first 1 thought there
were financial emoluments attached to
these honorable positions and wonder
ed why The Republican was not a pal
ladium. 1 went to the business man
ager about it and he told me that no
body had asked him for rates. I then
went out among the plain people, of
whom 1 know several, and asked them
why, if they wanted champions and
palladiums and such things, they had
not advertised for bids. That would
be the cheapest way to get them If Il
newspaper proprietor knows he's
the only candidate for palladium
in the field, he'll put up the price.
That's human nature. Why said I.
"a man of business instincts would not
hire janitor the way you've gone and
hired a palladium" The plain people
were surprised They said they hadn't
hired a, palladium or champion. They
hadn't thought OF such a thing.
1t was thus I discovered that this
palladium of the peoples liberties and
stituted. I got to wondering how this
palladium reminded me of another, but
for some time I was unable to establish
the chain of recollection. Finally it all
came to me. The other palladium was
Jefferson Brick, whom Dickens de-
scribes in his American Notes." and
who was a type of the journalists OF
his day. The kind is not yet extinct,
but it's remnants are weak and few.
1 do not believe the people of Phoe-
nix. or the people of any place. want
palladiums. They want newspapers. !
respecting newspapers that contain
news. A dishonest newspaper, if it |
publishes news, is much more sought !
after by the populace than the mere
palladium which strives to attach /
itself to the community after the man
ner of the leech. People want to be en- |
tertained, amused and perhaps in |
but not by mere editorial OBJ
servations and disquisitions, which the |

have never heard the public en- masse
calling upon the newspapers for pro-
lection. The courts will attend to that
and the plain people usually have con-
the courts. Now and then when the
courts fail in their duty the plain peo-
pie relying upon their own great
and numbers rise up and pro-
tect themselves.

It is fortunate that the reputation of
the editor of the Gazette is such that
his obscene attacks on reputable people
are taken at their full worth in this
community. OF the coarsest possible
fiber, with a code of morals that would
shame a Bashi-Bazouk, with absolutely
nothing to lose in the way of character.
he violates every principle of decency
in his treatment of men with whom he
is at odds. Unfortunately for those
who become the targets of his malice
he has the financial support of a lead
ing republican, man who goes to
church regularly and poses as a moral
agent in this community while directly
responsible for the maintenance of this
journalistic hyena. Still Dunbar's ten
ure cannot be considered as permanent.
He has lost the Gazette twice in the
last two years. His history in Arizona
is a succession of failures and it is
likely that he will be thrown out
again when he has served his masters
purpose.

James Mccormick Again
Launches Out Into
Baseball World.

Spencer, April 1S.-Spencer's crack
base bail player, James Mccormick, has
gone to Allentown, Pa, where he will
play for the season. Jimmie" as he
is known to his friends, is the Spencer
base ball cranks' ideal player. Born
about 20 years ago in this town, every
one knows him and have followed his
playing closely ever since he started,
u years ago. He started in Spencer
as a pitcher, but soon gave it up to
take position with the Sacred Heart
Lyceums of Worcester, being the first
team of any prominence that he ever
played with.
During that year he played with sew
eral teams in Worcester county, and
was soon known to the people as one
of the coming players. Two years at
forwards he signed with the Mansfield,
o.. team, playing but five weeks and
then met with an accident, breaking
his leg. During that time he estab-
lished name among the base ball peo-
pie. The next season he went to Lew
iston. Me-. and remained there for five
years.
About this time the Boston Globe
cracked him up as being the fastest
third baseman in New England. He
was sold to st. Louis, but only re-
NAMED there four days. After getting

Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfils every wish in curing rheuma-
tism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver,

water and scalding pain in passing it,
or bad effects following use of liquor,

Get THEIR ORDERS
Joint Commission on
Samoa Given In
structions.
POWERS ARE LARGE.
Principleo fUnanimity Fully
Recognized by Three
Nations.

Washington, April 1S.-The instruc-
tions to the Samoan commissioners
have been completed. The are alike in
all essential respects. They were sum-
med up today by one of the high com
missioners substantially as follows;
The commission is given complete
authority to carry on provisional
government for Samoa. In doing this
the instructions carefully prescribe the
preservation of order and the security
Of life and property as first requisite.
1t is provided that the duties of all Of
ficials heretofore exercising authority
in Samoa, either under the treaty OF
Berlin or in the service of either OF the
governments shall be suspended in Or
der that the high commission shall nave
complete authority over the affairs OF
the island. The commission is requir-
ed to make report upon a variety OF
things, including the recent collisions
and the cause leading up to them, al
so as to the administration of the ISL
ands, the rights of the several claim
ants to the kipgship; also what changes
are desirable in the methods provided
in the treaty of Berlin.
The instructions call for unanimity
in all actions by the commission. Inc
action taken by the commission when
unanimous, is to be conclusive with
out referendum, except when it sus-
ponds a, provision of the treaty of Ber-
lin. In that case also a provision OF
the treaty may be suspended by lant-
nous agreement of the members but
the suspension is ad referendum, and
is not finally binding until the three
governments approve or disapprove OF
it. The exact extent to which the trea-
ty can be temporarily suspended is
not quite clear, and one of the COM
missioners said today that it would re-
quire consultation among the commits
sioners to make this point certain. The
instructions are broad enough to in
elude the recent troubles, the oom-
bardment, fighting, arrest of a German
citizen, ETC.. so that these acute phases
as well as the general government oil
Samoa, will be adjusted without furth-
er conflict between the three govern
ments.
In connection with the statement
made in the British house of commons
yesterday that there was sworn evil
dence that a German had melted the
natives to ambush the Anglo
party, it is stated in official German
quarters that if any German has been
guilty of such action the Gern1an gov
eminent will punish him. instructions
have been issued the commander of the
German warship Fake to see that the
accused is held until the facts can be
| established.

entative on the Samoan commission

MAY CUT DOWN coURT-HILL
Will Improve the Court House and Ter
race Front.

TdGC FIOuAs
Members of the board of aldermen
are of the opinion that Court hill
should be cut down still more than as
proposed by plans of the...cou1Tty com
nissioners. The plans, as submitted to
the city council, provide for a cut of
three feet in front of the court house.
Since that time members of the board
have looked the ground over more
thoroughly, and Monday night the de-
cree will probably be held in allegiance,
for a time at least. Alderman Vaughan
contemplates introducing an order au-
thorizing the city engineer to consider
the advisability of making cut of five
or six feet, instead of three, as origin
ally proposed
The idea of the aldermen is that
about a dozen trees will have to be
sacrificed in either event, and that the
additional cut can be made without al
fecting adjacent property, in addition
to improving the appearance OF the
court house and terrace in front.
If this plan should prove feasible, the
terrace on the west side of Main street
will be cut down to a considerable eX-
tent, but this is considered in the light
of an Improvement rather than detrl-
ment Three or four additional steps
would be necessitated in front of the
court house, but the cost of steps add
ed there would, of course, be equalized
by the decrease in the number neces-
sary leading from Main street.
The aldermen interested are of the
opinion that the cut win not material
ly affect the property of either the. An
tiquarian Society or the church, and it
is thought that the grade of State
street will not be affected.
One point which may give trouble Is
the distance that additional steps in
front Of the court house will extend in
to the Greet. The steps may come out
into the street four or five feet. The
city solicitor has been consulted in the
matter, and another hearing may be
nannssarY.
