sPHERIcln OF THE EARTH.
Old .Parallax"S Bet Against Il, and He
Lest His Wager. q

Old .ParaiIax" Bet Against Il, and He
Lest His Wager.
The straightest canal in the
world is in England and runs from
Firth, in Cambridgeshire, to Den
vers Sluice, twenty-five miles away.
It was here that years ago q decisive
experiment was conducted to prove
the ~sphericity of the earth.
At that time, says Highways and
Byways In Cambridgeshire," q de-
luded old gentleman, who called
himself 'Parallax," was obsessed
with the notion that the globe was
a fiat disk and used to go lecturing
with great vigor on the subject.
After these lectures he invited
questions, none of which was able
to shake his belief. When asked,
for example, "Why does the hull of
a ship disappear below the horizon
while the masts remain visible ?" he
would answer, Because the lowest
stratum of air is the densest and
therefore soonest conceals objects
seen through it."
Finally he showed his whole heart
ed belief in his absurd views by lay
ing a heavy wager that no one would
disprove them. The stakes were de-
posted in the hands of judges, and
the trial, under agreed conditions,
took place upon the New river, as
part Of the canal is called.
Three boats were moored three
miles apart, each provided with a
crosstree of equal height. If the
earth was spherical the central cross
would appear above the other to an
observer looking through telescope
leveled from the crosstree of the
boat at either end; if it was flat he
would see both the other crosstrees
as one. tfParallax'' declared that he
did see them SO, but the judges
unanimously decided against him,
and the poor man lost his money.
