 Valuable observations of the meteor showers may be made by simply draw ing on star chart the apparent paths of the shooting stars across the sky W hen these paths are produced back

The point , from which these stars seem to come slowly changes its position: the occa- sional stars seen on August 1 will ap pear to come from A, Fig. l; those seen on August lG. will appear at F. while those of August 10 and II. when 1he shower is greatest. will dart outward in every direction from the point C.
 The whole account of the growth of our knowledge of these peculiar little bodies is most interesting. It was first supposed that they revOlved about the sun in nearly circular orbits, lying not far from tine orbit of the earth. When it was discovered that they encounter the earth with too great q velocity for this to be possible, it became evident that they must fall toward the sun from far greater distance. A swarm of little particles so far away that it be gins to feel the pull of the sun will fall toward that body. but the nearer par ticles will gradually come to move much more swiftly than the outer ones, So that in time the whole swarm will be stretched out in long stream of particles revolv- ing about the sun in an. elongated orbit. And when the actual paths were de termined in which these streams of par tices are moving. it was discovered that many of them are identical with the paths of high comets, which have been observed to pass aronnd the sun. The August shooting stars stream exactly along the path, followed by the great comet of 1862. completing their entire journey around the orbit in 121 years. The comet of 1S62 is apparently only the densest part of the great meteor swarm.

THEFT OF DOG TAGS
 THRIVING INDUSTRY
Inquiry Into Garcia's Case Develops
 That There Are Others.

Further development in the case of the late dog catcher indicates that the
 business of robbing defenseless dogs of their brass tags was getting to be more than an infant industry. The late dog catcher, Bryan or Garcia, was taken before Justice Johnstone for ar lraignment. Inquiry into his case brought out the fact that man by
 the name of M. R. Pacheco had a tag which belonged to the dog of woman
 by the name of Sylvania Sanness. He was taken into custody and accounted
 for his possession of the tag in such a manner that it seemed he was lying and he was held for examination in the sumOf s15. Pachecot got excited
 and told a half dozen different stories, all of which confirmed his guilt He
 said that if he could be given his free
 dom on bail he would find the man who sold him the tag. The authorities did not believe he could do it but if he could furnish the bail money that was none Of their affair. He man.

 It cannot be charged against Bryan that he ran down the price of tags as he very easily could have afforded to dO There is no proof that he ever sold any below the regular price es- tablished by ordinance but there is a record that in at least one instance he sold a tag for $250.
