ONE OF WOMAN'S FAILINGS.
Her Reckless Disposal of Pins IA Mat
ter of Great Concern to
Steamship Line.

Woman's proneness to stick pin
wherever convenient has proved a
serious matter to one steamship com
pany, says the New York Sun. The
line decided some time ago to place the
most modern air-filled mattresses in
the births of the best rooms on two of
its biggest ships. Recently the stew
ards were kept busy at the completion
OF each trip with blowing up with air
dozens of mattresses that had col
lapsed from some unknown cause. 1t
took the officials of the lines some
hours to discover the cause of the fail
ure of the mattresses to maintain their
proper condition. Hat pins, breast
pins, safety pins, stick pins, every
known kind of pin had done the mis-
chief.
Zone advantage of these mat
tresses," said the manufacturer, twas
that they were intended as life pre-
servers or small RATS should the
emergency arise. Give me a decent
sized hat pin if you want to see one
knock the ambition out of the average
1ife-preserver that depends upon air.
The women tourists simply stabbed
those mattresses to DEATH
The steamship company now has
this notice attached to the door of
every stateroom: "Please do not
stick pins in the berth cushions and
mattresses. Pins are injurious to
them

VALUABLE GROSBEAK EGGS.
-Four Dollars Each Received by q
Maine Lad Who Caught Some
of the Birds.

Last February, when the tempera-
ture held at zero for week at a
time and the snow was falling every
other day, Hector Sanborn, aged Is,
set horsehair snares about his home
and caught more than two dozen pine
grosbeaks. Most of them were fe-
males, says a report from Dexter, Me.
He kept the birds in large, open
and well-lighted room at the rear of
the barn and fed them on seeds and
refuse fruit. While the weather con-
tinued cold the birds were most
healthy and took kindly to the new
way of life, becoming fat and frisky,
with nothing to do but eat and sleep.
In March several pairs mated, built
nests and began to lay eggs, and by
April 1 the boy had secured "a fine
specimens.
Then the spring weather came and
caused the birds to have convulsions,
from which nearly one-half died.
Finding that he would be unable to
keep his pets through the summer,
young Sanborn liberated the sur
vivors, allowing them to go north and
seek more congenial temperature.
The boy has received an offer of
four dollars for every pine grosbeak
egg he could spare. He at once
shipped 80 to the Boston naturalist
who wished to complete collection
of rare eggs, and few days ago he
received check for $120. If next
winter proves to be cold enough to
drive the grosbeaks to Maine the boy
can see big fortune on easy terms.

THE NEW STAR IN PERSEUS.
REMARKABLE MOVEMENT OF THE NEBULA INTO
WHICH IT HAS RESOLVED.

San Jose Cal. Nov. 11.-W. ". Campbell of the
Lick Observatory, has issued bulletin regarding
a recent important discovery made by Professor
Perrine of the observatory on Mount Hamilton, IN
reference to the star in the constellation Per-
seus. This star appeared suddenly and unexpect-
edly last February. having been discovered by An
derson, Edinburgh In some four days its bright
ness increased from invisibility in ordinary tee-
scopes until 1t became the brightest star in the
northern sky.
The stars atmosphere was violently disturbed. as
shown by study of its spectrum in the spring
months and since June, at least. the spectroscope
has shown that it is nebula. though retain
ing to the eye and in the telescope the pointIike
form of ordinary star.
In August Professor Max Wolf, of Heidelberg,
Germany. secured four hours exposure photo
graph of the region Of the sky containing the new
star His negative showed the existence OF some
extremely faint nebuous patches about five minutes
of south of the star but with no evidence OF
any relationship between the rebulous clouds and
the star.
In September Mr.. Ritchie. at the Yerkes OBJ
servatory, photographed the region with
more efficient instrument and found that the nebu-
lous cloud was very nearly circular. some ten
minutes Of arc in diameter but of varying intensity
near the middle of the nebulosity.
recent photograph secured by Professor Perrine
with the Crosiey reflector recorded the phenomenal
features of the nebulous cloud. He compared his
photograph with the Yerkes photograph of the
that brightest portion Of the nebu1a at least.
and perhaps the nebula itself, had moved to the
southeast more than one minute Of arc in the last
This observation is In every respect unique. Mo-
ton this enormous scale, one-hftieth part OF
this scale. has never been observed for any celes-
tia body outside the solar system. and it is morally
certain that the observed phenomenon is closely
related to the violent disturbances that gave birth
to the star 1t is perhaps wonderful and
important as any fact yet determined in connec-

WANT ANOTHER STATION
FIRST AND SIXTH wARDERs IN BROOK.
LYN DESIRE TO TAKE TUNNEL
TRAIN AT JORALEMON-ST.

The absence Of q station at Joralemoa-st and
the East River. Brooklyn. IN the plans for the
East River Tunnel presented at the meeting
Of the East River Tunnel Commission in Brook
lyn on Friday has excited the interest Of per-
sens who live and do business IN that section
Of the borough AT that meeting. which was
held for the purpose of discussing evidence as to
the feasibility Of building such tunnel, VIII
taIn Barclay Parsons, chief engineer OF the
RAPID Transit Commission. said that SIX sta
lions had practically been decided upon. three
81 Manhattan and three in Brooklyn The Man
haitian stations were TO be at Fulton-st, all
St and Bowling Green, near Beaver-st, and the
Brooklyn stations at Borough Hall, the inter
section Of Flatbush-ave. and Fulton-st. and the
intersection OF Atlantic-ave. and Flatoush-ave
This would leave a long stretch without sta
tion between Beaver-st-. Manhattan and Bor-
ough Hall, Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Wharf and
Warehouse Company. which controls stores near
the point where the tunnel is to enter Brooklyn,
and other commercial interests in that locality
believe that a station at Joralemon-st- would be
of immense value to them.
William Barclay Parsons, when seen by a
Tribune reporter yesterday. said that few of the
details Of the proposed tunnel had been def
nitely decided upon. There were now half a
dozen different plans in his Office, and before
New-York tribune., 1901-11-12

the project was finally passed upon by the
courts he thought II probable that as many
more plans would be prepared and rejected.
Whenever a new idea presented itself 1t was
worked out in a set of plans If ii seemed
10 be practicable it retained, but if there
was no evident value 10 il it was laid aside
The question Of establishing a station al
Joralenaon-st. had been fully considered and re-
5ected as impracticabe. The principal reason
for this was that it would be great handicap
20 stop trains at that point because of the diff
Guilty Of again starting them on the steep grade
that there would be Then. again. the expense
OF building and operating an elevator would
rot be warranted by the amount Of business
done
There will probably be q grade OF B per
cent from the centre Of the river to Borough
Hall. Brooklyn" continued Mr.. Parsons. and
to stop trains On this Incline would be an ex-
treueIy serious handicap The running time
between the City Hail. Manhattan, and the
Long Island Railroad station at Atlantic and
FIatbush aves would be materially reduced
The tunnel will be seventy, seventy-five or
eighty feet below the surface Of the river, and,
although there will be gradual incline from
the centre OF the river the tunnel will be about
the same distance below the surface OF the
ground when II reaches the Brooklyn side. be-
cause the surface Of the ground there is higher
than that of the river.
There is no need for a station at Joralemon-
ST. There are nothing but warehouses there, and
few people live in that locality The Atlantic
ave. ferry is near this point, and IL would be
more convenient for these persons TO cross the
river on the boats. The same logic applies TO
the Manhattan side. There are few people near
South Ferry who would have use for the tun-
,1el until you get 10 Bowling Green. There are
the AtIantiC-ave., Hamlton-ave-, Thtrty-ninth-
St Staten Island and CoTnmunipaw ferries all
going in there. The travel from Brooklyn TO
South Ferry by way Of the tunnel would be ex-
frennely small
Passengers coming from Brooklyn, however.
may be able to transfer at the Bowling Green
station and take loop train for the South
Ferry station I VIII not say that this will be
permitted. but It may be You understand that
The system is to have two distinct routes Both
will start AT the City Hall and Will diverge at
the Bowling Green station The loop route will
circle about Battery Park and run back to the
City Hall, while the tunnel route will continue
direct to Brooklyn The depression for the tun-
rel route will begin at Bowling Green station
and VIII be far below the loop at South Ferry.
There are many homes the point where
.te tunnel is TO enter Brooklyn. and people
who live in the First and Sixth wards would
make use OF such q station. With them it is not
"a question OF merely crossing from side of
the river to the other. but Of the quickest way
Of getting uptown in Manhattan People who
wanted to go Thirty-thrd-st- speedily would
be obliged TO walk half a mile the Borough
Hall station, in Brooklyn. cross South Ferry
and take the elevated or underground road.
