FROM BABYLONIAN WISE MEN
Came the Division of the Hour as IL
Has Been Recognized Through
out the Centuries.

The division of an hour into sixty
minutes is of ancient Babylonic origin
and has survived the reforms applied
to notation in the course of the
worlds progress. Along with the dec
imal system in ancient Babylon there
was the sexagesimal system based up
on the count by sixties and original
ing in the discovery that there is no
number which has so many divisors
as sixty. 1t can be divided without
remainder by 2, 8, 4, 5, G, 10, IL, Is, 20
and 80.
Babylonians divided the suns path
into twenty-four parasongs, the lat
ter representing about four and one
half miles. The astronomers of that
day compared the progress of the sun
during one hour to the progress made
by a good walker during the same Pc
Rod of time, each accomplishing one
parasang.
The whole course of the sun was
twenty-four parasangs, or $50 degrees,
and each parasang or hour was sub
divided into sixty minutes.
Hipparchus, the Greek philosopher,
who lived $50 B. C., introduced the
Babylonian hour into Europe, and,
carried along by traditional knowl-
edge down through the middle ages, it
survived the French revolution, which
endeavored to reduce every measure
to decimal system o. reckoning, so
that the measure of time continues
sexagesimal or Babylonian.

RARE ADDITION TO MUSEUM
Specimens of Congo Game, insects
and Snakes Collected by Member
Of the Staff.

The bongo and okapi are animals
that are seen in their natural state
only in museums, after they are
stuffed. They are extremely rare
both inside and outside of museums
and the American Museum of Natural
History is shortly to be enriched by
mounted specimens of beth, along
with some $4,000 African insects, 1900
snakes and 10000 catalogued subjects
of all kinds. The collection Is the
result OF six years work in the Bel
gian Congo by Herbert Lang of the
museum staff. Among the 10000 spec
linens are $500 examples of imple-
ments, pottery and textiles related to
savage arts and crafts, including the
art OF living. The number of speci-
mems is so large that one is moved
to wonder what the natives had left
to sell to the next explorer after Mr..
Lang had finished his collection. The
okapi is a zebralike animal, very
timid, and only two or three white
men have ever seen it. Mr.. Lang cap
tured baby okapi, which had been
deserted by it's mother on the ap.
proach of the hunters. The baby got
along well until the supply of milk
gave out, and then its pelt was added
to the collection. Beside the bongo
and okapi skins the collection includes
skins of the giant Gland, white rhi.

words:

"Way!" hreathed Leith in sheer
amazement, what does this mean,
anyhow? Where is the envelope?
There must be some mistake. Here
1t is-the mischief! At it again-and
worse than ever!"
Leith allowed the letter to drop to
the desk as he scanned the direction
on the envelope: "Mr. Harry Mer-
riam."
The brother of Vera! 1t was meet
that Leith should be interested and
natural that he should be anxious and
troubled He had been a friend and
guide to Harry Merriam. He had
helped, guided and shielded the bright
natured but impetuous young fellow.
Leith had even secured him employ
ment with the business house of which
l. in thof hn
might watch and direct him.
Mr.. Merriam was stern, austere
man and it had cost both money and
patience to control the peccadillos of
the younger Merriam.
More recently Harry seemed to have
turned over new leaf. in order to
get him away from his old associates,
only the week previous Leith had sent
him on a selling tour. Now an echo
of the past defections of Harry had
come to the surface as a menace. With
all his influence, Leith doubted if his
employers would retain Harry when
they learned of his gambling habits.
All, at all hazards the changed
course of the weak and struggling
must not be crossed Leith arrived
at a speedy decision. He WINGED as
he realized the great sacrifice he was
called on I'd make. Then his lips drew
firm and resolute. He forgot all save
the urgency of the moment, tossed the
letter on his desk, picked up his hat
and hurried from the Office, leaving
word that he would return in an hour.
Fifteen minutes later Mr.. Merriam
called, according TO appointment. He
was shown into the office of the man
ager. where he decided to await his
ret2ru. Almost the first thing that

Leith had received. Twice he read 1t.

and placed a pile of miscellaneous
letters en- the desk of young Gordon
Leith, manager of the importing
house of Waltham & Co.
Leith only nodded. He was in a
pleasant dream and did not want to
be disturbed. In four days he was to
marry Vera Merriam. He had every
thing to be thankful for Her father
was wealthy and stood high socially.
Recently Waltham & Company had
raised his salary. Everything was har-
monious and lovely. Even gruff, digni-

seemingly pleased at the approaching
wedding. Was he not coming in that
afternoon to talk over the final ar
rangements for it with Leith?

South park, over the Midland railway,
excursions are run every summer day
for gathering wild flowers.
Down the steep slopes of the pass
dashes in turbulent foam the Fontaine
qui Bouille, past the pretty summer
resorts dotted along it's course. Down
this pass came the Utes in the winter
to fight the Cheyennes on the plains,
and up the pass in summer came the
Cheyennes to return the compliment
and fight the Utes.
AS the stars and wreaths of electric
unearthly brilliancy by their back
ground of somber mountains, so the
story Of the dark and bloody days OF
Indian warfare only accentuates the
contrast between them and the gayety
of the spa of the three red canyons,
the trey of hearts, pulsating with life,
musical with orchestral or band con-
certs and the song of the rushing
FOntaine.
Not far from Manitou, directly to
between them is Colorado City, the
pay roll town of central Colorado.
Cripple Greek gold finds it's way down
hill to this point, where 100000 tons
of ore are annually treated.
A huge couchant lion, to the south
of Colorado Springs, looms the bulk OF
Cheyenne mountain.
The mountain is scanned by two
canyons, North and South Cheyenne.
The latter cleaves the mountain to
it's base with narrow ravine, cut
down 1000 feet in the solid red rock
by the mighty hand of centuries. The
canyon is thickly wooded and termi-
mates in an amphitheater of rocks,
down which leaps Cheyenne Creek in
a succession of seven falls from a
height of 700 feet. A quarter of a
mile upstream one comes to Midnight
Falls, and a short distance farther
Juniata Falls are to be seen.
