At meeting last evening of the Section OF
Astronomy. Physics and Chemistry OF the New
York Academy OF Sciences. at No Z West Thirty

versty, gave an interesting illustrated talk on
temporary stars with special reference 10 the new
star in the constellation of Perseus The professor
said that OF the nineteen temporary stars known
only three had been visible to the naked eye. The
first was observed by Tycho Brahe in 1872 with
the rude instruments Of his time Keppler OBJ
served star as brilliant Venus which lasted
two years.
The star in Perseus was discovered February
q by the Rev. DIR. Anderson. Of Edinburgh II
was between the second and third magnitude and
brilliantly beautiful on the Sunday night fol-
lowing it's discovery. 1t reached the first magni-
tude on February 26 on March l6 il had gone TO
The fourth magnitude. and last evening. when
Professor Raes caught glimpse Of il, il appeared
TO be OF about the fifth magnitude. but fading SIS
rapidly than when II began grow din. The
professor suggested that perhaps TWO great suns
had come together, and that IN the collision kinetc
energy had been converted into heat and light.

WHY THE BILL FAILED
Ex-senator Butler TnIks About the
River and Hnrbor Budget.

Speaking Of the defeat of the River
and Harbor bill. ex-senator Butler of
North Carolina said yesterday that the
prime cause Of defeat was due to the lack
OF tact on the part Of the Senators who
were IL charge Of The measure.
Had the friends of the River and Har-
Dor hin been firm aald refused to hare II
displaced by the Sundry Civil and the
General Deficiency Appropriation bills. T
said the ex-senator, THE bill would have
passed. as the Administra ton dill not
want an extra session, and an extra
session would have resulted had the
Sundry Civil or the General Deficiency
failed I took Il that those ia charge OF
the River and Harbor bill had an under
standing with the Senators who were
looking after the Sundry Civil and the
General Deficiency Appropriation bills
