Chess and War.

The origin OF chess is shrouded In
mystery. There Is little doubt. how
ever. that It's birthplace was In India
and that IL Is an offspring OF a game
called chaturanga. which Is mentioned
In oriental literature as In use fully
200 years before the Christian era.
From india chess spread into Persia.
aud thence into Arabia. and ultimately
the Arabs took II into Spain and the
rest OF western Europe.
The game was In all probability In
vented for the purpose Of illustrating
the art OF war. The Arab legend upon
this point Is that II was devised for
the instruction OF young despot by
hl~ father. a learned Brahman. TO teach
him that a king. Notwithstanding his
power. was dependent for safety upon
his subjects. The Greek historians
credit the invention OF the game to
Palanedes, who. they claim, devised
IL TO beguile the tedium OF the siege
OF Troy during the Trojan war.

The suns Journey Through SINCE.

The Suns Journey Through Space.
BY means Of the spectroscope we can
obtain probably more accurate deter
mination of the suns velocity through
space. AS Is well known, the velocity
Of q star in the line of sight can he
found by measuring the displacement
sf the lines visible In the stars spec
trum. Now, the stars near the position
of the solar apex" should be ap-
preaching the earth on account of the
solar motion. and those at the opposite
point Of the sky, called the "ant apex"
should be recedlng.
This method has been employed by
several astronomers. especially by Yo-
gel at the potsdam observatory. This
able astronomer has found from an ex-
animation Of 40 stars that the suns
velocity through space is about ~
miles a second. but an examination Of
a larger number of stars would be nee
essary before we could consider this
result as thoroughly established.
Flom an examination of the spectra
OF II nebulm Professor Keeler of the
Lick observatory has found velocitles
in the llpc Of sight, and from these the
French astronomer Tisserand has de.
duced a velocity OF about . l-3 miles
Tor the solar motion, a result which
does not differ widely from that found
by Nogel. We may therefore perhaps
conclude that the velocity OF the suns
motion through space Is between 9 and
- miles per second.-Gentlemans
