turned In right ascension. 1t consists
of a heavy iron pillar, on top of which
rests the head stock carrying the polar
and declination axes. The former
points to the pole, and it is made to ro-
tate by means of clockwork at the exact
rate the stars move, SO that If a star be
brought into the field Of the telescope
It can be kept In view FOR hours, as the
rlock moves with the utmost regularity.
Should any deviation occur On account
Of difference in friction in different po-
sitions this is instantly corrected BY an
ingenious arrangement called the con
troll, which IS affected electrically and
governed by the standard clock Of tie

provided with circles used to point tho

read from the eye end by means Of mi

rapid setting these circles are also pro-
vided with coarse graduations which
can be seen with the naked eye.
There Is another arrangement. how
ever which enables the observer to set
the telescope without looking at the
circles and without calculating the
hour angle of the object sought. This
consists Of two dlals placed at the

A story which typifes the two doni-
nant characteristics Of the pope, his
LONELINESS and his humor, is as fol-
lows, says a writer in the London
Tft-Bits One day when he was be-
set by pilgrims begging for some me-
mortal of him, something which his
hands had touched, an old lady said to
him, Holy father, give me one Of your
stockings it will cure my bad leg.
with pleasure, madam the pontiff
replied, "but | may as well tell you it
has never cured mine"
Right Rev. Camillus Paul Macs,
bishop Of Coyington, o., who made his
ad lumina visit to Rome In May, 1902.
speaking of the characteristics Of the
pope, said in the Cincinnati Enquirer:
"a very singular trait Of Leo XIII.
is his great store Of good humor and
wit l have known no man more re-
sponsive to pleasant joke or more
keen and quick in his reply. / recall
the case of certain French bishop
who visited the pope several years ago
and upon leaving began to weep. The
holy father asked the reason Of his dis
tress, and the prelate replied that he
could not control himself at the
thought that he would never see him
again. The pope answered. Why will
| you not see me again? You are still a
young man The bishop, who was
about sixty, looked UP at this reply
and, seeing the smile of keen delight
Oh the holy fathers face took his
farewell with conflicting emotions.
In March, 1902, certain French
lady, who regularly visits the pope ev-
cry two years upon leaving inquired
whether she should come again, and
received the answer, Once more and
