REDS NEAR DISASTER.

Paris, Aug. 23 - Soviet Russian armies which invaded Poland and threatened to ca pture Warsaw appear to be on the eve of complete disaster, says the Warsaw correspondent of the Matin. He quotes General Weygand as saying Poland will be the grave of three-fourths of the Bolshevik army"
 Two Polish cavalry divisions are ad- vancing toward Bialystok for the evil dent purpose of cutting off the retreat of Soviet troops operating to the north of Warsaw. The correspondent de- clares the Bolsheviki will soon be forced into a hurried general retreat and that discipline has broken down in their ranks.
 German workers at Danzls nave es- tablished SoViets and have seized the docks, preventing the landing Of sup plies for Poland, according to report from that city. The German con- mander of the port is said to have re- fused to assign nroor1ngs for the French despatch boat Accra and the cruiser Gueydon.
 Sir Reginald T. Tower. high com mander for the League or Nations at Danzig, has refused to take any re- sponsibi1ity, declaring he must await instructions from London. He has requested the allied nations to supply him with 10000 troops be- fore he will permit the unloading ot munitions.

 Venus is also an evening star be- ing visible for short time after sun set and unlike Mars it's. position is gradually improving. Jupiter is a morning star again, while Saturn and Mercury are too near the sun for any observation at all.
 The Stars . :.
 There are seven first magnitude stars shown on the map. In the West and Southwest are Acturus and Antares, respectively; al1-1osr over head is the great triangle of Vega, Deneb and Altair; in the far north east and in the southeast are two newcomers, CapeIla, in Auriga, and Fomalhout, the brightest star in the Southern Fish,
 Capella is a most beautiful and in- teresting object. It is the nearest to the North Pole of all the firSt-mag- n1tude stars about a degree nearer than Deneb. It is white star, per haps slightly ye1lowish, only a little less brilliant than Vega or Lyra The spectrum of this star is very much like that of the sun, so that it must

In fact if the sun were suddenly removed to distance as great as Capella's, its tremendous 'brilliancy would shrink to the insignificance- of a fifth-mag- n1tude star. just above the lower limit of visibility.
 Capel1a is known so be moving away from the solar system with a speed of about twenty miles per second. It is in reality not one star at all, for the spectroscope has shown that what we ca.f Capella is really a system of two stars moving | about their common center of gravi- | ty in orbits completed I'll about 100 1 days. One of the stars is about a | third larger than it's companion. It 1 is interesting to note that, although | Capella is in the constellation of | Auriga, the Charioteer, the name of 1 the star itself means the she-goat t | and nearby are three stars called the l Kids. These are probably the rem Eants of a stellar nomenclature older 1 than the classic. Of Fomalhaut, practically nothing i is known besides it's apparent magni- tude, which is 1.3, or about the same as that of Deneb, which is overhead at ma ap-time.

September is one of the months in which the sun claims share of our attention, for it will cross the equator in its southward journey, preparing us for the coming of winter. The exact time of this phenomenon by Eastern Standard time will be 3:30 a. m. on the morning of the 23rd. The point on the equator which the sun occupies at this moment is known to astronomers as the autumn nal equinox, for on that date the sun is above the horizon as long as it is below or, in other words, day and night are equally long.
 Of course, this is slightly modified by the results of atmospheric refrac- ton and reflection, and the day gains somewhat at the expense of the night. The former causes the sun to appear slightly higher in the sky than it really is, when near the hori- Zon: the latter produces the twilight period, which is caused by the reflec- tion of sunlight to us from the upper layers of atmosphere after the sun has already been seen to dip below the horizon.
 We have a word to say about our friend, the moon, also. 1T you note the time of rising of the moon this month when it is about full, you will find that the time of 1noonrise on several consecutive nights is very closely the same. The moon rises about the time of sunset, and remains above the horizon until the sun is ready to come once more. The full moon nearest the time of the suns arrival at the autumna1 equinox has this desirable property several nights in succession and is called the liar vest Moon, because it's light aids the farmer to harvest his crops, which in certain localities are ready for har- vesting just at this time.
 On the average, the moon rises about an hour later each day, for it has to make the complete round of the heavens each month. Its orbit in
 the sky is very close to the ecliptic and may be considered practically identical with it for rough approxi- nations. It so happens that the ecliptic's orientation in the heavens 1 gives this minimum retardation o1

That il l why the full moon at this time ha 1 such an appropriate name. The nex | following full moon also is som metime ] given a special name-The Hunter 1 Moon.
