MAKES DISCOVERY WITH HOME
MADE TELESCOPE.
Young Farm Lad, interested in Study
of Heavenly Bodies, Constructs
Crude lnstrument-Gets
Good Results.

Madison, Misleading at the skies
through a telescope made by his own
hands, j. f. Mellisch, of Cottage
Grove, boy scarcely out of his teens,
has discovered a new comet
Although he is just farm boy, with
a meager education, Prof. George c..
Comstock, head of Washburn observa-
tory, says Mellisch has made an in.
teresting discovery. An effort will be
made to get the boy a position in the
Yerkes observatory at Lake Geneva.
Prof. Comstock said the comet was
moving little east of north at rate
of eight degrees a day. 1t is bunch
of floating rock and stone, the parts
so separated that distant stars can
be seen through it. 1t is a small
comet, but looks large because of its
nearness to the earth.
The comet was found on the south
ern edge of the constellation Gemini
about midway between the stars Proy-
on and Alpha Orionis.
On the same night of the discovery
by Mellisch, but at later hour, the
comet was observed at the Yerkes OBJ
servatory. The boy found it by the
merest accident. After the days work
is done, il the skies are clear, the boy
spends his time observing the stars,
and while out in the back yard search
ing the heavens one night recently
he made the discovery. But he would
not believe he had discovered a new
comet until the next evening, when
Prof. George Comstock and Prof. A. S.
Flint confirmed his belief at the uni
versity observatory.
II got interested in astronomy in

for my use.

as a carpenter. | was only a helper
and did not get much money. | wasl
able, however, to save enough to buy
few books and new telescope. The
instrument cost me SIC and was only
couple of inches in diameter. With,
it l was able to see new stars and I
was happy then.
1T was only a few more months
when l read so much about the stars
and the wonders of the skies that my
instrument failed to show me that 4
vas eager for a new one. l wrote to-
manufacturer and found that one
such as | wanted would cost $500. II
could not pay that much.
About this time l got book which
told me how to make rejecting tele-
scope. | found / could make such a
! telescope for a small amount and l
sent to Chicago and secured pieces OF
plate glass six inches thick. Out OF
these made it by grinding one piece
of glass against the other with emery
dust between. The construction OF
this instrument took me all winter and
last spring. My present telescope, "a
inches long, cost me SIS"
Mellisch intends to leave the farm
and get employment in some observa-
tory. He says he believes he will be-
come an astronomer. Profs. Comstock
and Flint are much interested in the
work of the young man.
The comet is supposed to be about
50,000,000 miles from the earth. 1t Is
peculiar in that it does not have a
bright head such as most comets pos
sess, but appears like trail of smoke.

DEFENDANT WAS A BIRD.
Maiden Court Pronounces Death Pen
atty on a Captured Gamecock.

Boston.-An unusual defendant in a
case before Judge Charles M. Bruce,
in the Maiden district court the other
day was valuable gamecock captured
at the farm of Charles NJ. Walker in
North Reading, on Sunday, May 5.
when constables of that town and the
state police interrupted a cock-fight.
About so sports" from various places
had assembled to witness the fight.
The court tried to determine the own
ership of the rooster, and as this SEEM
ed to be impossible, Judge Bruce SEN
fenced the bird to death. 1t has been
in charge of a constable since its cap
ture on May 8. At that time it was
taken from Patrick Donovan, who
claimed to have been offered half a
dollar by some one to carry the bird
away, when the police made their de-
scent and the crowd scattered. After
that Donovan was fined $25 for being
present at the game, and Walker, the
owner of the farm where IL took place
was fined 500 for being party to the
affair. He appealed.

EXPORTS ARE GROWING FAST.
Shipment Of Manufactured Articles In
creases-Crude Material Lessons.

Washingtcn.-Grea as has been
the growth In the volume of the manu-
featuring products of the United
States since 1850, the bureau Of stats
tics has issued statement showing
that the proportion of these products
which have been exported has grown
steadily. While in 1850 the exports
were GA per cent. of the entire prod
uct, they had increased in 1905 to
81 per cent.
Taking the articles which have I'M
dergone a process of manufacture and
comparing the expectations with those
of all articles the bureau finds that 1t
formed 32 per cent. of the total ex-
ports III 1850 and 60 per cent. in 1905,
while articles in a crude condition
formed 6S per cent. OF the exports in
1850 and but 40 per cent in 1905.
Articles which have undergone a
process of manufacture increased
twenty-three-fold during the period,
while those exported in crude state
increased less than seven-fold, indicat-
ing growing tendency to turn the
product into finished state by Ameri-
can labor before offering it for sale
