Trouble With a Telescope.

Continued observation with the tele
scope of the Yerkes observatory re
vealed the unpleasant existence Of i
number of curious streaks Of light run
ming horizontally, whose appearance
had certainly never been noticed be
fore and gave rise to redoubled un
easIness. And yet everything seemed
right with the glass viewed externally
and the most searching investigation
could discover no cause.
At last in desperation the eyepiect
end was unscrewed, and Professor
Ellerman, the slimmest Of the party
was hidden to crawl. as he well could
do, along in the tube Itself. and see II
he could discover aught amiss. Ht
crept along well enough, so wide Is the
tube, till he got beyond the center
when the telescope began to turn ovel
with his weight, and he would have
slid down on the top Of the glass had
not the other end been promptly seized
and held fast. Then he continued his
Journey. and in another moment had
discovered the unsupported author OF
the mischief, an overindustrious spider
and her equally hardworking progeny
who had succeeded in filling up the
entire end of the tube with mass OF
cobwebs In the hope Of catching what
must have been wholly imaginary flies
The webs and their spiders were care
fully removed, and from that day to
this the behavior Of the Yerkes 40 inch
glass has been all that heart could de
sire.-Good Words.
