SUN SPOTS OvEREsTIMATED.
Scientifically They Are Said to Be of
 Small Value.

Boston Transcript.
 Prof. Pickering, of the Harvard Col lege Astronomical tation. is at pres ent bewailing his fate because of the popular interest in sun spots. Not day passes but inquiries are poured in upon him on this subject, and while his replies are always interesting and satisfactory, they are never as com plete as he would like them. In speak ing on this subject, recently, Prof. Pickering said:
 "I wish I could impress upon the great mass of the. reading public tho fact that astronomers do not regard sun spots as such important or won derful phenomena as the daily papers would lead one to think. To the few of us who are making a special study of these occurrences on the face of the sun they are, of course, deeply in- teresting; just as different cloud forms are interesting to one who is making a study of clouds.
 But taken relatively with the other astronomical phenomena which are constantly drawing our attention, the appearance of sun spots is a really small matter, as far as scientific in terest goes
 AS to their effect on the earth, we may reasonably assume that they arc allied in some manner with our mag netic storms; but that is about all. As far as we know they have practically no other influence upon this planet. and, therefore their study should not be one of intense public importance There are other phenomena of far greater popular interest, were they only presented to the public in q properly entertaining manner, and I hope some day the newspaper readers will appreciate this; then we will feel here that our work is really receiv- ing its due recognition.

Dinner Table Candles.

Candles on the dinner table are al most a fashionable necessity these days and the shades for them elabor- ate and beautiful. Bead fringes seems to be universal and the deeper and heavier it is the better 1t Is liked. Square, instead of the more usual round shapes. are among the latest of ferings. A pretty shade, easily made at home. is of sidepleated ruffles of plain maline, of any desired shade fas- tened to a round frame. whose edge has the usual bead-fringe finish. in a tint to match the maline. The top has the ruffle inverted to stand up around 1t. joining with the reversed one below being covered with a mar row ribbon tied in pendant loops and ends at one side.
 The girandoles of old had always handmade candies of the finest wax in them. Tallow candles were not then in vogue. and were never con sidered correct in the parlor. Wita other things of the colonial period, handmade bayberry dips are the proper thing now. These are the old fashioned, handmade candles, made by dipping wick in the wax of bay berries. They are of a light. greon- ish brown. tapering slightly at the end. burn with starry gleam and give out sweet, pungent ordor when ex- tinguished. Artists claim they should never be "desecrated" by shades.

To Cut on Cape Cod.

New 1ork world.
 It is confidently predicted that two years and a half will see Cape Cod its fogs, its storms and it's other perils cut out of the calculations of the coast wise mariners by the completion of a s, 100000 ship canal across the narrow neck of land.
 canal at this point was proposed in 1876, in 1897, in 1776 and in 1924. Government surveys of dredging was done in 1885. The latest promoters say the work of digging will be begun in earnest this spring.
 The estimates of the building com pany, based on observation of round- the-cape traffic, allow for the passage through the canal annually of at least 300O0 vessels, 5000 of them steamers. Through the locks of St Marys ca nal in 1904 passed 16.120 boats The Suez canal in 1900 accommodated 3,411 vessels.
 On the water route from New York to Boston the Cape Cod canal will save l42 miles over the present outside trip and half as much over the Vineyard Sound passage. Besides, it will do away with exposure to such conditions as in the years from October 1875 to January. 1899. cost 165 vessels and nearly a hundred lives.
 It is possible now for a ship draw ing not more than fourteen feet of wa ter to steam direct from any ocean port in the world to Duluth or Chicago. but by way of Canadian canals. With the completion of New York's S101 ,O0O,- 900 enlargement of the Erie system, and with the Cape Cod improvement ready to continue great inside water way. we should he on competitive terms with the $9o,ooo.OO canal establish ments of our Northern neighbors.

MIR. BRYAN's ROUTE TO HAWAII.
An Interesting Mathematical Point q,
 to Travel.

J. Scheffer, in Baltimore Sun.
 MT. William J. Bryan, in his most in-
 teresting letter. published last Sunday in The Sun, makes a remark which one hears not unfrequently. viz: That 1t seems strange that the c1arse his ship took was 10 degrees north of what one might suppose. This is. however, very natural, for it is mathematically demonstrated and an incontrovertible fact that the shortest line on the sur face of a sphere which connect two points is the arc of a great circle. Some years ago the following problem was proposed in a mathematical periodical of this country: "A journeyman takes the shortest path from San Francisco to Athens, Greece. Though what countries would he pass and where would he attain the highest latitude?" furnished a mathematical solution of the problem, which was published. 1t Is a very singular route the journey man would have to travel in order to reach Athens, which lies almost on the same latitude as SanFrancisco on the shortest line possible. Leaving the metropolis of California in the direc- tion north 2* degrees, 26 minutes, 25 seconds east, he will cross that State, pass through the States of Nevada, Idaho, and Montana, enter the Domin- ion of Canada in a northeastern direc- tion, then cross the northern part of Hudson Bay. traverse Baffin's Land and, having passed the Arctic Circle. he will traverse water again between Baffin's Bay and Davis Strait travel across Greenland, south of the central part; enter the Atlantic, after having reached his highest latitude. in a line which coincides with the west coast of Greenland; cut off a small piece on the northern coast of Iceland. passing the Arctic Circle again somewhere in that neighborhood, turn gradually south ward, cross the Farce and Shetland Isles, then pass through the western part of Norway. thence across the North Sea, enter in a southeastern di rection, pass a part of Turkey and the, |, Balkan States and enter Greece In order to reach his point of destination, accomplishing thus the most singular journey which ever fell to the lot of man. If he had performed the journey in the parallel which connects the two cities he would have travelled 1864 is, 1,1S1 miles more than he performed on the arc of the great circle.

HIrnIANIrARIANIsM.

Among the late events, showing the progress of Humanitarian principles, may be mentioned:
 The use of the check rein has been discontinued in the Royal Court equi- pages at Berlin.
 The President of the Police of the city of Berlin has forbidden the use of binders on the horses of public con- veyances.
 The Lord Mayor of London adheres to the reform initiated by his prede- cessor, viz, the discontinuance of the check rein and the omission from the menu at the Lord Mayors banquet. of pate de foie gras, in the production of which geese are subjected to great suf- fering. #-" .*..@
 The fashionable Birmingham Club in London has given up live pigeon shoot ing.
 The Pennsylvania Legislature passed 8 bill to introduce humane education into all the schools of the State. A number of States have already such law
 The military institutes of Berlin and the building contractors connected with them, have issued the regulation that "onIy healthy and strong animals can be used; all rough and cruel treatment is forbidden; for heavy pulls there must be extra horses. When the wheels are covered with sand or gravel, etc, they must be freed before the team Is re- quired to pull. The harness must have proper back-straps, that the animals need not pull back by the neck. The use of the check rein Is forbidden. In cold weather, the animals, while stand ing. must be blanketed. The places of exit and entrance to building places, to sand or gravel pits, etc, must have suitable platform or blanks for the wagon to run upon. The drivers are admonished that all cruelty will be re- ported to the police.
