Toward the east andisouth the heavens
are covered with faint : stars forming
beautiful and delicate groups which are
no less Interesting than the more striking
consultations In the west There is no
better month for tracing out the two long
consultations of the Dragon and the
Water Snake. while Bootes, or the
Driver, is so nearly overhead that it is in
excellent position for examination. The
brilliant blue star Vega, which few
months ago sunk from view in the north
west, is again appearing in the north
east. This beautiful star the arc light
of the heavens, is a summer star;Y it
remains in the early evening sky OILY
during the warm nights of summer by
next August it will be almost exactly
overhead, but as the winter months APP

the sky.
The Planets.
During the month of April most bril-
liant star may have been noticed shin
ing out low down in the west, just after
sunset. This is the planet Venus, which
is so bright that 1t is easily visible long
before the sky grows black enough for
the other stars to be seen. At the be-
ginning of May the planet is seen for
only about an hour after sunset. As the
month goes on it mounts very rapidly

ing the month will present a most inter-
esting spectacle. AS shown in Fig. 2 they
are all moving eastward but at very diff
ferent speeds. Thus Venus will overtake
Mars on the morning of May g. Jupiter
on the evening of May II, and Neptune
on June 2, while Mars will overtake Jupi-
ter on May IS. The observer should not
fail to examine Venus and Mars with a
telescope on May s. They will then be so
close together that to the eye they will
seem to touch each other; in the telescope
they will appear as shown in Fig. B.
Venus being five minutes south of Mars.
This will afford an excellent opportunity
for comparing their brightness and colors.
Similarly Venus and Jupiter may be seen
together with small telescope on May
II. Venus then being degree and II min
utes north Of Jupiter. They will then APP

The other planets are now morning
stars and cannot be seen in the early
evening.

pion to the Lesser Dog, an ill-omened
constellation which has come down to
us from remote antiquity. Just above
Hydra are two little known groups known
as Corvis, or the Grow, and Crater, or
the Cup. According to the legend. the
Crow being sent by Apollo for a cup Of
water lotered at fig tree until the
fruit became ripe and then returned with
a water snake In his claws, blaming the
snake as the cause of his delay In pun
ishment he is fixed In the sky with the
cup near, but Is forever prevented by
the snake from drinking from 1t. From
this rather unpleasant legend the con-
stellation has at different times received
other names. the Fig Bird and the Lott

IL was stated that this bird alone never

with nebulas, more than 500 being crowd
ed together in this one little space.
Above Virgo Is the great constellation
Bootes, Or the Driver, which bears a
rough resemblance to a man with up
raised arms who is continually driving
the Bear before him, around and around
the Pole. This group is so large that
after it begins to set in the west, eight
hours are occupied in its sinking from
view, and even then the appraised hand
does not disappear. 1t is in allusion TO
this that Homer sang of Bootes, that

1t is to be hoped that enough re-
plies to the letters of the committee
will be received this week to make
it worth while to call general
meeting of the people of the city
soon, to determine in general way
several important points regarding
the character of the event.
While it is true that there are a
great many diverse opinions as to
the proper time to celebate, there Is
no good excuse to delay the prelimi-
nary organization of the affair. It
takes long time to work up big
interest in an event Of this kind, and
it should not be delayed for too
long. Details could be arranged
now, so as to allow ample time for
arranging a meeting that will be his
torical in this valley.
1t is not out of place to again i'm
press upon the minds OF the people
that the advertising value, which can
not be estimated in dollars and cents,
will be lost If the celebration is put
off too long. That is the advertising
feature of the proposition. A cele-
bration held soon will be the means
of inducing thousands Of people to
come to the valley now, while they
are needed. Whereas, II 1t is de-
layed too long, the advertising effect
will be lost until next year. which
will cause many to forget the place
and settle elsewhere.
1t should be the motto of the mer-
chants to strike while the iron IS

AFTER SICKNESS.
Our Druggist, Fred l.. Janeck, Tells
How to Regain Strength.

lowing to this changeable climate
and unreasonable weather, there has
been good deal of sickness in North
Yakima during the past few weeks. "
said our leading druggist, Mr.. Fred
l.. Janeck, land we want to say to
the people of North Yakima that the
one thing to aid recovery after sick
ness is to give the patient a blood
building and strength-restoring tonic,
one that will create an appetite and
give strength to every organ in the
body.
Now" continued Mr.. Janeck,
from an intimate knowledge of al
most every medicine on the market,
we do not believe there is another
remedy in the country equal to our
delicious cod liver oil preparation,
Vinol, for this purpose"
Vinol is not patent medicine, as
everything in it is named on the
back label of every bottle; 1t con-
tains every one of the bodybuilding,
medicinal elements OF cod liver oil,
taken from fresh Gods livers, but
without drop of the system-clog-
ging oil to upset the stomach and re-

Speaking of the approval of the
Tietan project and the chance for
commencing work Chief Engineer
Jacobs said: " think that the
Typographical work on the Teton
project will be in such shape in six
months so that contracts can be let
for the construction work. OF
course there is much to do yet, and
hope that the contracts can be let in
that thine. The greatest strategical
point in the whole project is the
Tietan tunnel, 5000 feet in length,
below the mouth of the Tietan can
yon. Work on thils cannot be rushed
as the men can only be employed at
each end. With everything favor
able this ought to be finished in ~
months from the time the work is
commenced. Construction work on
the canals and laterals can be rush
ed as many more men can be employ
ed there. The storage reservoir dam
Is to be built. The capacity of the
reservoir will be 10000 acre feet, or
$4,000 acres one foot deep in water"
Enthusiasm is getting warmer and
warmer every day in favor of cele-
bration Of the approval of the Tietan
project. The fervor is not confined
exclusively to North Yakima, as let
tiers are arriving every day favoring
the holding Of the fete.
