THIEVES OF THE HEAVENS.

Jupiter IS much the biggest mem Der
of the family Of stars which revoIve
ground our sun Consequently the
power of his attraction is greater than
that possessed. for instance, By the
earth. Jupiter exploits as a burglar
have caused very considerable annoy
ance and inconvenience to astronomer
in the days before his powers Were
fully recognized.
In fl7e there appeared a fine comet,
which was found to have an ellipti-
Cai orbit around the sun Of 50 COM
paratiyely small a size that 3Ir. Lexeii
It's discOyerer, calculated il would re-
turn 10 five and half years. But in
us telescopes were vainly focused on
the spot where il was expected TO re-
appear and again in 1881 it disappoint-
ed all observers. Mr. LeXe1 plunged
into fresh calculations and after much
research found that Jupiter was the
culprit. The unfortunate comet had
been rash enough 70 plunge into the
sphere Of the giant planets attraction,
with the result that il had been COM
pletely diverted from it's former orbit
and flung on into quite a different one
Of a twenty years period. II has never
been seen again by anyone on this
earth and proba bly, never will be.
Jupiter was also responsible for the
delay which occurred in the return Of
that splendid visitant known as Hal
ley's comet. Haley found that he was
not the first discOVerer of this big
comet. II had appeared at least twice
previously. once seventy-five years be-
fore and again seventy-six years before
that. The astronomer concluded that
there would be a further delay in its
third return and predicted that its next
appearance would be SIS days later
He did not live to see it. but in 1853,
the year he had prophesied for its re-
appearance, astronomers were waiting
for il.
But they waited for more than three
months before ii did actually appear,
and then found that it was the planet
Saturn they had to thank for delaying
the comet this extra hundred days
This same comet appeared again in
1888. this time late again. Not only
had Jupiter delayed it 518 days, and
Saturn about 100. but Uranus had also
had a hand in retarding it, and had
added another sixty-nine days to its
journey.

Gainesville. Ga, July 20-HaH Su-
perior Court convened this morning at
10 O'Clock, Judge Kiulsey presiding and
Solicitor General Charters looking aft
81 the interests OF the state The first
case called for trial was that Of Julius
n. Alexander and others against the
Gainesville. Jefferson and Southern
Railroad Company and julius VI. Alex
ander ct al, and ". a. Brown et al.
trustees. VS.. the Gainesville, jefferson
and Southern Railroad Company, which
has been pending for the past six
years
When the case was called quite a
surprise was created when Col. H Il.
Dean announced to the court that the
city OF Gainesville, the Gainesville, JET
fersOn and Southern Railroad Company
and the stockholders had voluntarily
dismissed their exceptions TO the re-
port of the auditor and had further
dismissed all their pleas of usury and
to the statute of limitation.
This is the issue that has been so
strongly litigated for the past six years
between the. Georgia Railroad and the
city OF GdNeSFil1e. ana the tdlueSS HE.
Jefferson and Southern Railroad Com
pany, and invOlevd bonds principal and
interest, amounting TO about $500 900.
The auditor, Hon. II. H. Perry, found
that the bonds, being in the hands
of innocent purchasers, were good, and
exceptions were filed TO this finding,
which were heard by Judge kin1say
at the adjourned term Of the court in
May
About three weeks ago Judge Kim
sey announced that he would sustain
the exceptions, and hold the bonds void
for usury, but did not file his opin-
ion, pOstponing the same TO the July
term, at the request OF the parties in
the case. 1t would seem from the ac-
tion taken to-day that some satisfac-
tory adjustments must have been made
between the parties
Col Dean stated that the total
indebtedness claimed against the
Gainesville. Jefferson and South
ern Railroad Company amounted to
over 81 .000, 900. and that he had
made a careful calculation of the
amount which would be due under
Judge Kimsey's rulings, and that this
WOULD still amount to the sum of SAC,
1890 to the first day of July. 1903
and that he considered this amount
more than the road would bring at
public cutlery Therefore. he could see
no substantial benefit to be derived
from continuing the litigation, and the
only effect of the judgment sustaining
the plea of usury would be to depre-
ciate the value of one set of bonds and

peddler Of patent medicines. owner Of
several side shows advance agent for
nearly all of the big circuses, and a
fact but recently known, on several oc-
casions had made successful balloon
ascensions. He began work as clerk at
the Central Hotel over twenty years
ago and held the same position at the
time of his death. Doc" was con-
sidered one of the best informed and
most universally popular hotel men in
the country.
Caldwell was man who spoke little
of his past life and little is known of
his relatives, except that his father
lives in Chicago He was a devoted
husband and survived his wife not
quite two months. He leaves no chill
