THE TELESCOPE.
eaIilei's Rude instrument the First
Used In Astronomy.


Used In Astronomy.
The first telescope was pointed to-
ward the sky on Jan. Z. 1910. when
Galilei first tried his rude instrument
and was rewarded by discovering some
of the moons Of Jupiter No great
magnifying power was needed for this
rs at least one of the moons is large
enough TO be seen by the naked eye
did not the nearness Of the brilliant
planet prevent this. Lenses bad been
known for long time and were at
that time In common use by near
sighted persons.
The name OF the real dlscoverer OF
the telescope seems to he unknown.
but the accepted story now is that
two young sons OF a Middebury op-
tician named Lippersley some time
between 1905 and 1908. while playing
with some lenses. happened 10 hold
two OF them at a distance from each
other and we're surprised and delight
ed to find that the weather vane on q
neighbOring tower seemed TO come
near them when looked mt through the
two lenses. In April. 1909. a little
telescope made I'm Holland was offered
for sale in Paris.
The next month Galilei, then a pro-
fessor In the university at Padua
heard OF this instrument and realized
at once its importance in the ssldy Of
astronomy. From the descriptis~ Of
the Dutch instrument be had enc
made at once, and In August he as
founded the people of Venice by show
ing them from the top OF the cam
panile persons entering the doors OF
the church at Murano. This spyglass
was less than two inches In diameter
and magnifled three times. From this
crude instrument of Galilei TO the
monster telescopes forty inches IN

manager of the Long Acre a. c., OF
New York, for a meeting between aim

Percy Woodruff. manager of Wilson,
visited the manager of h club last
week an; laid down Wilson'S challenge
to meet the Dixie Kid at catch
weights. To show true faith in the
ch allcnge Woodruff posted 800 with
the manage ment. The club told him
that It was willing to stage the bout,
but it il doubtful if the two will meet
on accoune of the Dix Kids de-
mald for a larger purse thar the club
would he able to pay. If the Dixie
Kid refuses to meet Wilson'S terms
the Club stated that 1t would try to ar
range for q meeting between Wilson
and Dick Hyland to a place the
second week IL October. In speaking
of Wilson'S def, Woodruff says that
the chs lienge is open to any fighter
in the business, providing that they
will weigh within the limit. He also
states tha Wilson would like to meet
Billy Leary or Paeky Mcfarland at 1875
pounds, to weigh in at 6 O'Clock. As
Woo druff has always shown a willing
hess to post a forfeit of any amount,
there is no doubt that he means bust

is unable to obtain bouts with men

journey to Europe during December
and challenge the best men obtain

FOOTBALL MAY BE
RESTORED AT COLUMBIA.

NEW YORK. Sept. 27.--President
Nicholas Murray Butler, Of Columbia
University. yesterday called the student
board in consultation to ask its advice
on the question of restoring football to
the list of sports, n again instituting
inter-class games. which were abolished
two years ago. Advocates of the game
at the university believe that under the
new rules the ban on football may be
safely raised. 1t is expected that if
inter-class games are restored, Column
bia will again become a contestant with
the other large colleges for gridiron
honors.

"a among local paperWelgnt poAtrs
- is Tommy Andreach. Under the
management of DannZ Sullivan, n Of
the best-known trainers in the East
and also of physical culture fame,
Andreach is developing into one of the
best boys of his weight in the State.
He has fought most of his battles at
McGuigan's. 1t is only lately hat he
has been boxing at the well-known
New York club, Browns Gymnasium.
In all Andreach has fought t~hirty-ive
battles and has yet to lose one which
is a grand record and also n that not
many amateur pugilists h~ereabouts can
boast. He has defeated such men as
Young McKenna, of Jersey City; Young
Dick, of Brooklyn, and Young Dick, or
Jersey City, all of whom are good.
Andreach is training hard for his fight
with Young Seymour, which takes place
at Browns Gymnasium this Thursday
evening. He will try hard to win this
battle, Andreach may be matched to
fight Kid Williams, of Baltimore. the
latter in a recent show at the Armory
A. C. in Baltimore knocked out three
men in one night, but with the local
lad he will find the proposition harder.
