London News.
The name OF the trst discoverer OF
Il planet Is as completely lost In the
dark backward and abysln OF time"
as that OF the man who first ate an
oyster or sailed boat. 1t Is even
more obscure, in fact, for Mr.. Watts
has given us picture Of the antici-
pator or Dando, and the ratiOnalizers
OF Greek mythology attribute the in
vention OF the sail to Daedalus. But
it Is hopeless to look for any reference
to the first shepherd watching his
flocks by night who satisfied himself
that five of the stars did all not pre-.
serve the same relative position, as
all the consultations seemed to do.
These 1--we stars we're called the
wanderers" or planets, 10 opposition
to the fixed stars, and the sun and
moon were classed with them. When
astronomy emerged from the mists OF
antiquity it already possessed this
amount oi information, which was
unchanged for some thousands ol
years. Galileo was the flrst to whom
we assign the discovery OF . new
member OF the solar system-not q
planet in this case, but the four satil'
lites Of the planet Jupiter. 1t Is
amusing to recall the objections that
were leveled against this first revela.
tion of his wonderful telescope.
THOUGHT THERE WERE PLANETS
ENOUGH.
| Atypical one is quoted by Principai
! Lodge from the work OF Florentine
astronomer, who thus argued against
any attempt 10 increase the number
OF planets-in which the sun aud
moon were then included: "rhere
are seven windows In the head-two
nostrils, two eyes two ears and .
mUutll--s0 In the heavens there are
two favorable stars, two unpr0pitious,
two luminaries and Mercury alone un-
decided and Indifferent. From which
and many other similar phenomena
Of nature, such a. the seven metals,
etc, which u were tedious to enumer-
ute, we gather that the number OF
planets Is necessarily seven, :

danger of volcanic upheaval on Ha-
wall They explain that the goddess
Peie has always been well-treated and
as result is kind to her people. In
other volcanic regions the presiding
ce'ties are often neglected or affronted
put mere Pele has never lacked for
black pigs. white chickens and ohela
berries On this account there Is no
reason TO think that her mood will be-
come vindictive.

sHARKEY AND MAHER

considerable interest is displayed in tne six-round battle between Peter Maner and Tom Sharkey, to be de- clded at Philadelphia tomorrow night. IT It is on the level there should be- plenty Of slugging Sporting men have not forgotten the encounter between these lrishmen at the old Palace A. c. several years ago. which was stopped py The police just at point when things were becoming interesting
 Many persons have insisted ever since that, owing to rumors of interference and because of the big gate receipts. Alaher and Sharkey were requested to
 go easy" for six rounds. At any rate they put up very tame bout during tnar time, but when the seventh round opened they cut loose. Each scored q knockdown and when the bell rang Sharkey was apparently anxious to whip several of Maher's seconds. Ref- cree James Colville of Boston called the affair a draw, as Police Inspector MeLaughlin got into the ring and pre- vented further proceedings. So little was shown in the way of fighting skill by either man that the question of s11- premacy has remained in doubt ever since. If Maher is in his old form and can land one of his punches he is liable to make the sailor wabble. Peter has an advantage in reach and Is fairly clever, perhaps q bit more scientific than Sharkey. but the latter possesses the greater physical strength and en- durance. Sharkey. is a powerful hit tar, but is slow on his feet and not quick to nee openings. If he can come

SPONGE FISHERS IN LUCK.
Constant Demand for the Fungi Gives Many of Them Profitable Em-
 pIoyment.

The sponge fisheries along the coast of Florida have been pushed to the ut most limit, until the. annual sales amount to $500, ,0o0, says q recent re- port. The product sells as high as $2.50 pound; which makes the busi- ness most profitable. There are 60 schooners in the trade and the business is the staple of many of the towns along the coast of the state. The fishermen have brought the business to a high state of perfection. and they are able to make large catches in season. The sponge fishing is done in deep water, the best specimens of the large bath sponges being obtained from 50 feet below the surface. They are located with water glass and then picked with a long pole carrying on it's end a blade like the letter s, which cuts the sponge loose with twist, and then it is brought to the surface, if there is luck; and, if not, and it gets away, tits lost forever. The men becor- very expert in the business and they will carry it on during high winds, losing very few of the sponges.

COOK IN HEAT OF VOLCANOES.
New Zea1anders Make Use of subter- ranean Heat in SinguIaR
 Manner.

The Maoris of New Zealand cook their potatoes and other vegetables in volcanic heat. There are few volcanoes in New Zealand, and some of the Maoris live up in the mountains near them. They make the volcanoes do several useful things for them, but s'le queerest is the cooking, says the Detroit Free. Press. A few of the volcanoes have a sort of periodic ac- tion. They heat up the ground in the fall and then lie idle the remain der of the year.
