sTIRs ASTRONOMERS.
Professor comstock of Wisconsin Says
We DONE See So Very Far
With the TELESCOPE.

Madison, Wis, Dec. 22.-Professor Geo.
C.. Comstock, director Of Washburn OBJ
servatory and professor of astronomy at
the University of Wisconsin, has created
something of a furore among scientists in
his department by declaring that. accord-I
ing to, exhaustive experiments made by
him for a period of years, the Ideas held
by astronomers about the telescope range
of Vision and photography are enormously
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 1000 times.
Heretofore it has been held that astron-
omers could see through their telescopes
stars. the light from which took 1000. 600
years to reach the earth. Professor Com
stock declares that 1t is, in his opinion.
impossible to see a star with the best
telescope in existence the light of which
star takes more than 1000 years to reach
the:.e earth.
Modern investigation" Professor Com
stock said in an address before a gather.
ing asof scientists and students, proves
that the statement of the astronomer who
said a century or so ago that with his
telescope he could see stars from which 1t
took the light 1000, 600 years to reach the
earth was enormously exaggerated. Mod
ern astronomers claim to be able to see
stars from which the transmission of light
takes 10000 to- 10000 years, but I believe
that we cannot see farther than the stars
whose light Is transmitted. in: 1000 years,
nor do I Believe we. will be able to get be-
rond that distance"

Expelled From American Club in the
City Of Mexico and May Resign.
City of Mexico, Dec. 22.-Andrew d..
Barlow, United States consul general,
has resigned his membership in the
American club under circumstances
practically meaning expulsion, and it is
believed as a result hat he will also
resign his official position.
When the board Of managers con-
.vened in formal session to .considerath the
charges against the consul general Of
conduct unbecoming i gentleman the
board summoned Mr.. Barlow to appear
and explain. Instead Of appearing,
however, the consul sent his %resigna-
ton, which was. promptly accepted.
The affair is causing much comment.
not alone in English speaking but in
diplomatic and official circles.
The Mexican Herald editorially says:
"a moments reflection will convince
MI. Barlow that the resignation of his
membership in the clup must be. fol-.
lowed by the resignation of his official
position as consul general from the
United States. Mr.. Barlow was SUM
moned before,sth board of managers
of the club to explain acts which it is
not necessary to characterize which
were committed by him on the club
premises. Mr.. Barlow anticipated the
action of the board by resigning. Is he,
while laboring under the disability Of
membership in the American club,
qualified to fill the position of Amer
lean consul general? Do not the same
reasons which render it an impbssi-
bility for him to belong to the club rem
der it impossible a f%ortiori that he
should continue to be the chief con-
sular representative of the United
States in the republic of Mexico? His
position has become ~untenable and
there is nothing left him but to relin-
quish it,"
Washington, Dec. 19.-Andrew D.
Barlow, consul general at the City of
Mexico, was born in Missouri and APP
pointed from that state. He was ap-
pointed June 8, 1897, and has been sta
toned at the City of Mexico since, then.
He has had no other appointments in

Of the Hamilton hotel in this city, while

Efforts TO Find Frank Melbourne, Cred,

EIortssIo FIND Frank melbourne, Cred,
tied With Strange Powers.
Deadwood, S. D., Dec. 21.-Efforts are
being made to ascertain the where
abouts of Frank Melbourne, who was
famed a few years ago as the rainmak-
er. A brother, William Melbourne, Of
Canton, O.. is on his way to Deadwood
to consule A. w. Rothernel, who claims
to be a scientific mining expert and
able to locate gold mines and lost and
miS-ing articles. Some one has inform
ed Melbourne that Rothernel could To-
cate his brother, if alive, and tell him
where to find the body, If dead.
The ~fainInaker first came into prom
at Cheyenne, Wyo., in 1892. He
made several demonstrations there, and
1t is claimed by many hat he was able
to perform all he protested. 1t is as
serted that he did actually produce
rain, although this. Of. course, is open
to question. His manager was Frank
II. Jones, civil engineer, who is still
located at Cheyenne. Jones is as much
at sea as nyone pertaining to Mel
bourne's whereabouts, and is inclined
to believe that he is suffering with in
sanity or other causes through which
he has lost his identity. Jones says he
never was to ascertain by what
method Melbourne operated when try
ing to produce rain, as it was kept a
profound secret by the rainmaker.
When Melbourne disappeared some
eight years 6 Jones, thinking that
Melbourne had e~ndeavored to leave him
in the lurch, felt. much offended. Now,
however, he is satisfied that Melbourne
a either gone insane or has been
foully dealt with. Rothernel. the sicen-
fist, is in Deadwood and says he will be
able to locate Melbourne if furnished a
photograph or some other article that
a been in Melbourne's possession. He
had been approached by Melbourne's
former manager, the surveyor at Chey-
enne, on the matter Of the rainmaker's
disappearance, but raj surprised when
Informed hat Melbourne's brother was
