THE POWER OF HUMAN VISION.
The Simple Eye of Man and the Com

pound Eye of the Fly.
A specialist has claimed that he can
with the unaided eye distinguish
lines ruled In glass that are only one
fifty -thousandeth of an inch apart, but
lie Conte has limited the power Of the
eye to distinguish lines to one one
thousandth of an inch.
To show how immensely superior is
the sense of sight in defining single
things one can try the sense of touch
in comparison with it. The two points
Of a pair of compasses placed three
inches apart on the least sensitive
parts of the body will be felt as a sin
gle prick.
With the aid of the miscroscope the
human eye can discern objects whose
diameter Is only about one one-hun-
dred Land eight -thousandth Of a inch.
It has been said that the eye Of a fly
can distinguish an object one five-mil-
lionth of an inch in diameter.
What we designate as the eye of a
fly is really a compound eye made up
of numerous lenses. OF these the COM
mon house fly has something like four
thousand in the two eyes. The struc-
lures Of these lenses are we'll known,
the optical part Of each consisting Of
two lenses, which combined, form a
double convex lens.
That each lens acts as a separate
eye can be easily proved by detaching
the whole Of the front Of the compound
eye, and by manipulation with a mi
croscope 1t is not difficult to examine
a photograph or other object through
it. When this is done distinct image
Is seen in each lens.
Carpenter has shown that each lens
reflects but small portion Of the i'm
age looked at and that 1t requires the
combined action of the 1000 lenses Of
the fly to produce the same effect as
that seen by the one human eye. The
human eye Is therefore a more perfect
optical instrument than the eye OF the
fly.
Scientists who have given consid-
erable attention to the investigation Of
compound eyes have formed no opinion
that would lead to the conclusion that
their power Of vision with respect to
small objects exceeds that of the SIM
pie eyes of the higher animals. The
images of objects formed in the separ-
ate lenses composing the compound
eye are proportionally small, and the
question whether insects can see small
er objects than animals furnished with
single eyes is not question of obtics.
but Of the sensitiveness of the optic
nerve and consequently a matter Of
mere onjecture.-Harper's Weekly.

Another Explanation THE York


vile Enquirer offers this as an expla-
nation for the course Of Judge Jones:
Don't let the idea that the mere
desire to secure the honor OF this hlgn
office figures; because there are Few
men who would hold the governorship
to be higher than the chief justiceship.
Behind it all there Is reason that
seems to be more practical. From the
nature and character of Bleaseism, as
II is commonly understood, no one
would think that the leaders or 1t
would be content to stop with control
of the executive department alone.
Certainly in the light of the very Sc
rious spat between the governor and
chief Justice last winter, no one can
doubt that IL the governors star grows
brighter, the star of the chief justice
would become more dim. The general
assembly to be chosen next summer
will elect a successor to the man who
succeeds Judge Jones, and had Judge
Jones remained in the office, and
should the legislature to be elected
next summer be a Blease legislature,
II Is quite certain that Judge Jones
would not have been his own successor,
That a man of Judge Jones expert
ence and perception could see this Is
too plain for anything, and In this
view of the case 1t would certainly be
monumental idiocy for the judge to re-
main inactive and perish miseraoiy
like a fox in a hole rather than come
out in the open and make the fight OF
his life like the man that he Is.
The Enquirer may be correct. but
it strikes us that the above Is far-
fetched. Judge Jones is not fighting
TO save his place on the supreme
bench, his place in the hearts of his
countrymen, or to prove his ability as
q nolitician. The consequences or
continued growth Of the present DOM
inant influences in South Carolina
would, in the judgment of many, be
very much greater than the overthrow
of a chief justice and other officials

The Demise of Bailey.-"In the SEN
ate Bailey was once a recognized lead

ough knowledge Of constitutional law.
He was never recognized officially as
the minority floor leader Of the senate.
because Senator Money of Mississippi
had been selected in caucus. When
Money retired from the senate Senator
Martin of Virginia succeeded to the
leadership This hurt Bailey's pride,
as he supposed that he would succeed
to the leadership of the minority OF
the upper branch. Shortly afterward'
John Sharp Williams of Mississippi,

Money. Mr.. Williams is an able par
