Whoever looks upon this constellation
and learns its name viii never forget
il. There are seventy-eight visible
stars in it, and when it is on the merid-
ian il is visible TO the entire habita bic
world. There are three stars of the
second magnitude together in a straight
line, which constitute the Belt of Orion.
These three stars make a line exactly
three degrees in length. They are some
times called the Ell and Yard. In job
they are called the Bands of Orion: and
the ancient husbandman sometimes
called them Jacobs Rod. To the north
west or Orion we see the Pleiades and
Hyades, while TO the north of the Hy-
AIDES is Auriga. with milk white Capella
a little past the meridian. Perseus,
containing the bright and variable star
Algol. is situated in the midst of the
Milky Way. and is now about halfway
between the meridian and the western
horizon.
The Great Bear is slowly climbing up
from beneath the North Star. and will
ere long be on the meridian. This con-
stellatiou is easily distinguished by
means of cluster of seven bright stars
forming what is called The Dipper. IN

increasing in bTilliancy and at the same
time rapidly journeying on in her course

feat she very nearly accomphshes by

a little to the northwest of her great

pTactical sciences as tn p last
two named have had such direct
bearing upon practical and everyday
life as astronomy. without knowl-
edge of that great science we should
have no. accurate ms ans Of measuring
time. navigators would hopelessly lose
themselves on the painless waves of
the sea, accurate geOdetic and topO-
graphic measurements would present
insUperable difficulties, such practical
and indispensable things as. calendars
and almanacs would not exist; III
short. there would prevail ineXtricabl
confusion in regard to many things
Even such as have but little conception
of scientific matters viii readily uu-
derstand that the location of places by
longitude and latitude Is of the great
est importance.
The mariner that wants to sail for
a certain island or certai nharbor
does not sail about the sea at random
until he inadvertently alights upon his
place of destination He knows the
longitude and latitude Of the. latter and
ne sails toward IL as directly as other
circumstances would permit. Now.
here present themselves two distinct
astronomical problems; first. the OBJ
tanning Of the longitude and latitude of
places or the surface of the earth. and
after these are established. how the
navigator gets there without losing his
science is nothing but a branch of as
tronomy. and without at least a pFac-
teal knowledge of it, the mariners
would be no more than professional
soldiers without arms. The practical
results of the astronomical science en-
ables the nautical man TO find out at
any time on the ocean. exactly where
he is. and TO arrive where he wants to
go.
In a mere newspaper article we can
not be supposed TO enter minutely into
AN explanation of the more or less
ingenious methods of finding the lOngi-
tude and latitude of places on the sur
face OF the earth, and we confine our

GREAT FLOODS IN

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. l8-Rain has
fallen in Kansas City and vicinity
every day excepting one in September,
with total downfall Of ten inches
in seventeen days, and today there is
NO prospects Of immediate cessation.
Practically the same conditions have
prevailed throughout western Missouri
and portions Of eastern and central
Kansas. AS a result all streams In
this part Of the country continue TO
rise, and railway traffic is becoming
demoralized because Of numerous
wash-outs.
Trains on nearly every road between
Kans City and st. Louis and southeast
Of here on the Katy are several hours
late or have been annulled temporarily.
At Kansas City since yesterday an
inch and half OF rain has fallen,
while at Wichita the precipitation
amounted.to 3l4 inches.

STABBED
Citizens Fight With Revolver
and Knife.

Shortly after the closing of the en-
tertainment of the Salvation tent Sat
urday night where several hundred
citizens had listened to an illustrated
lecture on the bright and dark sides
Of life, as seen in our large cities, and
while great many we're yet upon
the streets, the quietness Of the night
was startled by the report of a reyolv-
er shot which rang out from the alley
near the postofiice. The marshals
hurried to the scene, to find no one
there, but the echo of footsteps in
the distance caused the officers to fol-
low them with the result of locating
the parties implicated in furnishing
a more realistic picture Of the dark
side Of life than shows on the canvas.
They we're M. o. Gabert, a piano
dealer and tuner, party of the first
part, and Lee Taylor a COW boy or
cattle man, party Of the second part.
Stories are plentiful and much at
variance as to the real cause Of the
incident, but rumor has it that the
party of the second part had made
defamatory remarks regarding the
party of tie first part, MS heirs or as
signes, and that said party Of the
first part had loaded up his gun and
set forth to find the said Taylor with
the Intent of doing him bodily harm.
Another story which is reported to
have come from an unknown source,
and is therefore not substantiated, is
that Gabert attacked Taylor for said
defamatory remarks and that Taylor
drew knife and stabbed Gabert in
the left side and thai during the
fracas, Gabert drew his gun and fired
at Taylor and missed him; anyway a
shot was fired, Gabert was stabbed
and Taylor was arrested. How seri-
Ous Gabert is wounded cannot be
learned, but he is expected to recover.

THE difficulty of keeping our

N. .Burdin, which was quickly put
out. The hose carts were all on
hand in very short time and the
entire fire department was prompt

This alarm brought to our notice
the necessity of constructing side
walks large enough to accommodate
the hose carts. Attic corner near
the property of Mrs. @. Basset the
bridge is too small, the hose carts
had to be hauled over the ditch,
this should be remedied at once,
We believe there are other few
places like this one that should be
attended to at once. In building
sidewalks the authorities should
exact that they be wide enough
for the passage of the carts or the
carts should be made to conform
with the sidewalks, because when
the streets are muddy and heavy
as they we're Monday night, it is
useless to think of hauling the
hose over them unless with horses
which are not always available
