AF TER MANY
LONG YEARS
Prize of $1,000, Offered 4S
Years Ago, Is Finally
Won in Science.

A prize of $1,000 that has been
standing for 10 years to be awarded
to any resident of North America who
should determine by experiment
whether all rays of light and other
physical rays are or are not transmit
ted with. the same velocity has been
won by Dr. Paul R. Heyl, assistant in
the department of chemistry of the
Philadelphia Central High School.
The money was deposited with the
Franklin Institute Of this city, On
March %, 1859, by Uriah A. Boyden,
in his day an eminent mechanical en-
gineer of Boston, and the institute has
advertised the proposition monthly
ever. since.
During this half century % or so
essays have been presented by inves-
tigadors, but after careful investiga-
ton by committee appointed in each
case none was found sufficiently
meritorious to warrant the institute
in granting the prize until the recent
investigation by DR.. Heyl was submit
ted. ~
Dr. Heyl succeeded in demonstrat-
ing by experiment that those of the
ufTd-VIOl0I rays Vi llSlhL III WA1INl
glass is transparent, have the same
velocity as the light rays proper He
reasoned that if the velocity of those
rays were differept they would not ar
rive from a distant source at the same
time.
For this test he selected Algol, a
we'll known, variable star in the con-
stellatiOn Perseus, as the source of
light. By means of a diffraction graz
ting he eliminated all but the ultra
violet rays of a known frequency, and
by focusing them on a sensitive plate
obtained photographs of the star.
For the purpose of identifying the
rays so recorded with the visible
rays, regarding the time of their
emission he selected Tor the time OF
his test the time during which the
lignt of this star shows the peculiar
phenomena of fading and recovering.
The period of this variation is known
to be about six hours. During this
period he took several photographs,
one half hour apart, each exposure
being 90 minutes
After developing the plate the sue
cessive images plainly showed fad
ing and recovering, and although the
exact location of the minimum bright
ness could not be absolutely deter
mined. the approximate coincidence
of the time of the minimum bright
ness of the visible and the photo
graphed rays was obvious.-N. Y.

CARNIVAL BEGINS
NEXT MONDAY
Smiths Greater shows win Exhibit
Near the Baseball
Grounds.

Smiths greater shows will exhibit
near the baseball park all next week
beginning Monday, as per advertise
ment in another column. A Iona
coming, Md. paper, where the car
ival or street fair recently showed
very successfully, speaks in the
highest terms of these shows. 1t
says along with other things:
The main show tents under the d.
rection and ownership of Smith, are
new and first-class. They consist Of
the wild animal show, where feroc-
ious beasts are put through marvel
GUS performances. In one cage the
animal tricks of performers consists
of two bears, boat, hyena and a
dog. A performance is also given
with a lionness. The most thrilling
and sensational feature of the pro-
gram is where the trainer enters the
cage of the large South African lion,
after it has been tantalized and
prodded into anger and ferociay. At
the proper moment the trainer enters
the cage and remains a short time,
moving sensational Embarrassing es-
cape just as the lion is about to fell
him with his powerful paw. The
act is one of the best ever seen in an
animal show anywhere. The lion
is said to have killed three keepers
and sent four others to the hospital,
and this can be believed when the
performance is witnessed. There
are also leopards, monkeys and a
large collection of other wild beasts
that make the animal tent notable
feature of the exhibition.
Perhaps the next in importance
and entertainment is the mysterious
Fora, who gives most remarkable
exhibition of transformation. The
story of Pymalian and Galaten is
given at the tableaux, first showing
the statue, and the attendant re-
moves the head to convince the audi
ence that it is stationary. There
right before the gaze of hundreds Of
spectators the statue begins to take
on life and action, and is transform
ed into beautiful living woman.
The next Transformation is the bur-
ial of flowers, the resurrections. and
the return OF the living form to cold
marble, again removing the head.
1t is most remarkable and myster-
ious performance.

Fine Help at Hand.

The Fairmont Times, the Wheel
ing Register, the Parkersburg senti-
mel. the Charleston Gazette and a
few other Democratic newspapers Of
this State that have been raying and
singing ink over alleged terrible
consequences of the new tax laws,
have the golden opportunity now Of
employing a man to help them out
in producing their editorial tax-law
brain storms and increasing that
enormous deficit that is slowed away
some place within the borders of the
State-no one knows where.
Over in York, Pa, a calamity
prophet has predicted that after a
series of catastrophes the world will
come to an end in nineteen months.
There are to be earthquakes, inter-
mixture of the seasons. awful de-
struction of life in holocausts, many
large sun spots and other dire things.
So many world ending predictions
have been made by self-claimed pro-
phets and have come to naught how
ever that the York man will likely
see the old world revolving about
on its axis twenty months hence as
serenely as ever. At least we all sin
cerely hope so; and Old Mother
Earth has such nice long record of
past services and regular habits that
there is every reason to suspect that
she will be alive, well and hearty at
the time when the York man says
she is going to quit business.
AS it comes naturally and almost
instinctively to a Democrat now
adays to find terrible evils and point
out awful consequences therefrom,
the inference can reasonably be
drawn that this fellow over in York
is Democrat; that he has likely
let his trolley slip OF the political
wire long enough to get it mixed up
with universities and hence his
world-ending dope.
Now here is chance for the
taxation calamity prophet newspa-
pers OF West Virginia to engage a
man to help them out in their work
He would be valuable acquisition
to that editorial band of terrorists
and could assist them materially in
Matching up catastrophies and en-
larging that deficit that they can
find only in their imaginations
and in their editorial columns. That
his predictions and observations
should be wholly impossible would
of course be a necessary requisite;
and as the fellow has given COM
petent evidence of his qualifications
for such position the Times, the
Register, the Sentinel and the others
should at once communicate with
him and open up negotiations for his
engagement,
