JUPITER HAS

SAN JOSE January 5.-Professor w.
w. Campbell, director of Lick Obser-
vatory, reports that a sixth satellite
of Jupiter has been discovered by
Professor Perrine by means of the
Crossley reflector. Photographs of the
region Immediately west of Jupiter
taken with this instrument early i'm
December showed the image of an uu-
known body, which changed its posi-
tion from night to night
Further observations needed to de-
eide whether this was a new satellite
or one of the asteroids have been Sc
cured this week. and leave no doubt
that the body is revolving around the
planet Jupiter. Last night it was for
ty-five minutes Of arc due west of the
planet and the distance is now slowly
decreasing.
The satellite is of the fourteenth
magnitude or slightly brighter, and
requires telescope of ten or twelve
inches i'm diameter to perceive it. Its
orbit cannot be determined till OBJ
