Perhaps the most striking one Is the
delicate Northern Crown a chaplet OF
beautiful blush stars which lies be-,
tween Bootes and Hercules, whose
brightest star, at C, Figure I, is known
as the Pearl of the Crown. This little
group of stars is remarkable for the
large. number of double stars which it
contains. and many of these are true
binaries being composed OF TWO great
suns which are very close together and
moving rapidly around one, another.
In the northern part of the consteiia
ton there are several wider pairs;
those, for example, at A and can be
seen as two stars even in very small
telescope.
Another faint little group is the
Arrow, which having been shot at the
Eagle by the Archer. is now flying up
the center of the Milky Way between
the former constellation and the North
ern Cross. The Milky Way has many
very rich star fields in this region. To
the east of Sagitta is the strange little
group of the Dolphin, or Jobs Coffin. of
which the star at E Is double sun,
that at D varies in brightness, and that
at f Is also remarkable double-sun
system of a greenish color, and about
colored sun is slowly moving. If.
which is very improbable, there are
any habitable worlds in this system,
the, irregular succession and varying
brightness and color of their days must
be very striking.
The faint stars between the Dolphin
and Aqnarius constitute the Little
Horse: those between the Dolphin and
the star at H form the Wolf; those
between Andromeda and Cygnus are
the Lizard. and there are several other
faint and little known groups which
may be found marked on any good star
atlas. A knowledge of these Is of inter-
est, but is by no means a necessity, to
an amateur observer of the heavens.

Maybe of all the damage wrought DUR
ing the siege of seven weeks and the al
German artillery no one projectile earned
for itself more distinction than the one
which hit squarely the great gilt cross
which tops the summit of the MINISTER'S
quaint openwork spire of which part
at least was the work of two famous
young architects from Prague, styled the
Junler Won Prag. The projectile knocked
the cross out of plumb and for years
after it hung in a perilous position at an
oblique angle as IL momentarily about
to fall.
The cathedral also suffered from the
vandalism of the mob of 1893. which
amused itself by tearing down and de-
molishing hundreds of statuettes. A
story has it that the beautiful spire es-
capped like destruction only because the
church authorities had provided it with
a metal red cap, which was stuck upon
the pinnacle of the tower as a badge of
protection. The twin tower has never
been completed. although the Munster
was begun in the twelfth century.
While the Munster was the target for
many shells and much damage was
caused today it is as quaint and beauti-
full as ever. In the south transept still
stands the famous astronomical clock.

TOM FERRIS BOWS 10
 PHOENIX AUDIENCE
Eminent English Character Actor at
 the Arizona Again Tonight

Tom Ferris. the eminent English in terpreter of the famous characters of the novelist Charles Dickens, is seen
 in pictures in Arizona for the first time at the Arizona theater today in a wonderful picture founded upon the story of The Christmas Chimes" Fer ris takes the part of "Trotty," one of the most wonderful creations in Eng fish fiction, and the manner in which he portrays this old fellow is such as to bring tears to the eyes of the hard est hearted person in the audience. The scenes in the picture as shown yesterday at matinee and night and as will be shown again so held the crowd and so affected it that there were many eyes bedimmed with tears when the curtain finally rang down on the last scene.
 The Christmas Chimes is one of the recent releases of the new service that has been procured by Manager Mace from the World Film corporation and it is well able to hold it's own with the other great pictures that have been shown in this picture recently. The stories of Dickens have peculiar adaptabilitYto pictures and the present sample well proves the assertion.

IF IN DOUBT FOLLOW THE
 BAND IT'S INTERESTING
It Leads to an Old Friend Newly
 Attred

Follow the Band" may sound mar tlal but it has nothing to do with the war, even if it is new slogan in Phoenix. It only leaked out yes terday that if one followed the band
 they would land at the Coliseum, the
 old theater which has been mobilizing
 for the past two weeks and will
 make an attack in force tomorrow
 night An attack in force does not
 mean that the Coliseum is lining up
 it's forces for either the Germans or
 the Allies, although the name of Vic
 Steinneger would indicate that Elm peror Bill could count on strong sup port there but in Eugene Redewill the French are sure of at least one Gaelic strong arm while A. E. How ard is English on his mothers side at least. The orchestra will supply it's quota of Slavs, and in the makeup of the bill will be found representa- tiVes of all the other nations engaged in the conflict, hence. for the peace, quiet and prosperity of the new Coli scum, Steinneger demands that strict neutrality be enforced, otherwise he will declare a moratorium when the time comes for the ghost to walk.
 Follow the Band" means to follow the Coliseum's own pet organization. It will start somewhere in the vi cinity of Center and Monroe parade down town and wend it's way by a devious course to the Coliseum mid colored lights and waving banners If anyone can keep their feet still or walk in the opposite direction during this parade Steinneger wants to know the reason why.
 Follow the band and it will lead you to the good old Coliseum and it's brand new show.

General Scott assumed his new office this week, on the retirement of Cen eral Witherspoon under the age pro visions of the army. Not the least of General Scott's accomplishments is his knowledge of Indian sign languages. He Was governor of the Sulu archi- pelago and abolished slavery and the slave trade there.
