Light of the Stars

Various attempts have been made to
estimate the light Of stars. In the
northern hemisphere Argelander has
registered 324, 1000 stars down to the
nine and one-half magnitude, with the
aid Of the best photometric data.
Agnes M. Clerks System of the Stars
gives the sum of the light of these
northern stars as equivalent to 1.44O
of full moonlight, and the total light Of
all stars similarly enumerated in both
hemispheres to the number of about
100000 is roughly placed at 1.180 Of
the lunar brightness. The scattered
light Of still fainter celestial bodies is
difficult to evaluate. By a photograph
ic method Sir William Abney in 1896
rated the total starlight Of both hem
ispheres as LOO Of full moonlight,
and Professor Newcomb in 1901 from
visual observations Of diffused sky
radiance fixed the light power Of all
stars at just 72S times that of Capella,
or 1.S9 Of the light Of the full moon.
It is not certain, however, that the sky
would be totally dark if all stars were
blotted out. Certain processes make
the upper atmosphere strongly lumi-
nous at times, and one never can be
sure that this light is absent.

The Penang Patrol Wagon.

Writing Of the local patrol wagon the
Penang correspondent of the Straits
Times, Singapore, says: "It forcibly
calls to mind at first sight four wheel
ed bakers cart, bar the fact that it is
drawn by about the slowest pair Of
bulloclzs in the settlement There is
nothing grim at all about it, for it is
commanded by a sleepy Malay con-
stable perched on the box; it's roof and
sides are formed of white canvas, and
it has no door to close at the back, but
merely an opening in which another
Malay constable half slumbers Two
or three other constables ride inside sit
ting on the benches with the prisoners,
who seem to be too struck with novelty
of the ride to make any attempt at es-
cape. I should say that an escape from
this prison van would be as easy as
falling off log" .

DUE TO DEsPONDENCY.
Suicide of Ex-President Wilcox Of the
Delaware and Hudson.

New York, April 29-The body of
David Wilcox, former president of the
Delaware and Hudson company, who
committed suicide on board the steam
or Barbarosa in midocean on Wednes-
day, was landed at Hoboken and given
into the care of his cousin, w. G.. Will
cox. 1t was found that Mr.. Wilcox
shot himself in the mouth, dying in
stantly. Mr. Wilcox was in a very
nervous condition from i'll health when
he sailed for Europe a few weeks ago.
After reaching Europe he cabled to his
cousin that his condition was worse
than when he left America. Since then
his relatives in this city have had no
word from him.
Mr.. Wilcox boarded the Barbarosa
at Gibraltar. Although he shot him.
self on Wednesday night 1t was not
until noon of the following day that
his death was discovered, when the
door of his stateroom and found him
lying dead in his berth.
His dependency is said to have
been partly due to financial losses suf.
fered during the slump in the stock
market in March.
It is reported that while in Europe
Mr. Wilcox was informed that he
would eventually become blind. This,
1t is said, is one of the causes of the
depression which ended in suicide.
Mr.. Wilcox had already lost the sight
of one eye and that of the other was
failing.
