STRANGE HIMALAYAN MIsFIT
s'Panda' Is Bear-Cat With Some
 RaccoOn Trimmings.

The characteristics of three species of quadrupeds are united in the animal known as the banda, which came from the solitudes of the Himalayas to the small mammal house of the Bronx zoo- logical park few days ago. The banda has the head of cat the legs and claws of bear. the general conformation of body and tail of a raccoon.
 The white and fluffy head, topping a reddish brown body and black legs, with thickly padded feet give 1t the appear ance of a four-footed pierrot. The freak animal from India weighs about 25 pounds, and is 21a feet long The tail is very bushy, and is r inches in length.
 Specimens of both the male and the fe- male are in the park It is said these are the only representatives of the spe- cies in captivity in the United States. Tho two recruits up in the Bronx are Friendly and approachabe. At first they were coy about taking food. but finally the keepers tempted them with morsels of fish and fruit
 The banda is as troublesome to the farmers in the foothills of the Himalayas the fox is to our own husbandmen, for they are nocturnal in habit and given to making raids on chicken coops and fowl shelters.
 The composite specimen has long been a puzzle to Zoologists, but it is believed to be a grotesque variation of the rac- coon. 1t is one of the rarest animals in the collection in the Bronx geological park

 the great star cloud around us. We must remember that our sun is only a very little star. Among the millions of other, almost infinitely distant stars, and that our world and the other seven planets are very minute objects which are very near to and revolve about our sun. We have explained in other of these monthly articles why 1t is now be- lieved that very many and perhaps most of the other suns or stars also nave worlds revolving around them Our own little system of worlds is probably but one of many millions of systems, Which so far no man has ever seen.
 We cannot doubt that in the course of their slow development many of these distant worlds attain to a condition which fits them to become the abode of living creatures. A most interesting specula- tion has been recently advanced to eX- plain how the beginnings of life may be transmitted from a living world to one which has become fitted to sustain life. II is. in brief. that excessively minute forms of life scattered through the at- mosphere of one world may be driven out into outer space by Light Pressure that is, by the action of the llght waves in the ether, and that some of them may ultimately reach the other world ana set tie upon 1t and multiply there. Measures show that some living particles are small enough to be driven off in this way, ana experiments seem to render it not i'm possible that they may even retain then vitality during their long journey through the cold of space. Thus all new discov' cries bind together more closely the grea' worlds of the infinite universe of whicf we are part

ing and interesting object in the heavens Is undoubtedly the beautiful planet Ve- nus. For many weeks it has shone out so very brilliantly in the west that It must have attracted the attention of every observer, and no one who looked
 at 1t from time to time can have failed
 to notice how rapidly it has been run ming eastward and southward over the sky, and how 1t has ever been growing brighter It's extraordinary brilliance was well illustrated in the early part of July when in it's eastward journey it passed very near the bright star, Regu- lus. Then this object, although It is the most brilliant of the stars ip the bright group known as the Sickle, seemed very faint indeed when the far brighter Ve- nus remained near it, and in contrast with the silvery whiteness of the planet

idly nearer to us. he will see it apparent ly growing larger, but as the sunlit half of the planet is nearly all turned away from us, the shape of this world as he sees it during the next few weeks Will seem to be that of narrow crescent. He can easily see that this crescent IS highest along its outer, rounded edge, while the inner edge is fainter and IT, regularly shaded. These shadings are the effect of twilight and tell us clearly that our sister world has deep atmos- phere. The dark ball within the cres- cent is the part of the planet on which the sun is not shining; that is, the part where it is night, and, therefore, this IS usually invisible to us. But sometimes even this is dimly lighted by an indis- tinct and changing glow whose cause IS unknown to us, but which suggests the northern lights of our own atmosphere
 As the end of the month draws near the crescent will grow rapidly narrower and during the first two weeks of Sep tember it will become nothing but a sli-' very line, curved to the shape of bow

hours, and on August 31 nearly seven hours before sunrise. Readers who have looked at the southeastern heavens a few hours after midnight have doubtless noticed how rapidly the two worlds seem to be approaching one another. and on the morning of August 16 the Red Planet will be seen a little above. but very close to it's more slowly-moving neighbor. The passage will occur while the two bodies are almost on the border line between the star groups of the Ram and the Bull The planets will be separated by a distance less than two-thirds of the dis tance across the moon. In a small tele- scope both may be seen together; Mars with it's reddish and greenish areas and its bright polar cap, and Saturn with it's remarkable system of rings will form a most unusual and interesting field

The Other Planets
 Jupiter is still well up from the ground in the southwest, and forms a most in- teresting object for study, but it is rap idly leaving the evening sky and cannot be well observed after this month.
 Mercury will reach it's greatest dis tance east of the sun on August 13 and for a few days before and after this date may be seen shining out in the twilight glow for a short time after sunset It sets very little north of the west point, and so must be looked for a short way up from the ground in direction al most exactly west of the observer.

 On September 15 the planet will pass from the west to the east side of the sun. At this time 1t will not pass ex- actly between the earth and the sun, for then we would see the world as round, dark. dot moving across the bright suns disc. This very rare and important phe- nomenon is known as a transit of Ve- nus, but it will probably never be seen by anyone now living, for the next one will not occur until the year 2004 In the present year Venus, as seen from the earth. will pass about eight degrees be- low the sun At this time the dark side of the planet is turned toward our earth. and so is invisible to us, but in a large telescope there may be seen a perfectly round little ring of light, which is the rim of atmosphere around the planet shining in the sunlight.
