and for the time being devote his
entire time to making the Gem the
bsst five-cent play house in the state.
This does not mean that Mr.. Hirsch
has no other plans on foot except
that of running the Gem, for he has
large ambition in the amusement line.
and when his plans eventually reach
fulfillment the people of the Hatties-
burg section will doubtless be looking
to him for a very large share of their
entertainment. The first of these
plans will doubtless materialize next
summer and will give Hattiesburg
what many contend it has long need
ed.
In the meantime the Gem is going to
be carefully looked after and every
effort made to provide for the com
fort and entertainment of the patrons
of this playhouse.

there is no further effort to prosecute
the case that should return a verdict
of not guilty, which was done.

The worst error OF exercise, the

very men who denounce all physical

those who pay the heaviest personal
penalty for this delusion. They use

BABY PLANETS NUMEROUS
Asteroids, All Moving In Orbits Be-
tween Those of Mars and Jupl-
ter, Number $50.

1t is related that when the one hun
dredth asteroid. or minor planet. was
discovered, many years ago, certain as
tronomers organized a celebration of
the event and that while the solemni-
ties were in preparation two or three
more asteroids were picked out in the
sky by the diligent observers.
These bodies, so far as recognized
and officially mapped. now number $50.
They all move in orbits between those
Of Mars and Jupiter and may be eth
er the debris Of ruined planet or the
results of an abortive attempt of ma
ture to form a planet
The development of astronomical
photography has added large numbers
of these minor planets to our lists. In
the Harvard observatory at .Arequipa,
Peru, sixty-four separate asteroids
were photographed between 1898 and
1901, and forty-seven of these were
new discoveries.
As may be imagined, the number of
these bodies is now so large that 1t is
a difficult matter to tell whether one
Of them is new or is to be identified
with a previous discovery. In several
instances mistakes of this kind already
have been made. The swarm of plane
toids is numerous one. and 1t has be-
come a kind Of astronomical sport to
pursue them and pick them out.
AS instruments become more power
ful and methods more delicate the
smaller bodies Of the group will be de-
tected one by one and added to our
charts. The exact value Of such dis
