THE N RIG Union.

The zone big union" the goal of the !. w. W.. and evidently
the inspiration of the unauthorized railroad strike, is based upor
the fundamental fanacy that all men are equal in a productive and
industrial sense, and entitled to equal economic reward as a re-
suit OF their efforts. The man of brains is placed in the same
category as the man without, and the man of Drawn as the
physlcal weakIng. 1t is the old communist theory in a new form.
All men are equal in a political sense in America and equal
ity OF opportunity is an ideal of the republic-but no two men
are on the same plane mentally or physically and the one big
union IS an effort to force the competent to divide with the in
competent, the toilers with the slackers and the producers with
the drones.
Lenine and. Trotsky began with beautiful theories of COM
munism and ended with worse tyranny than the Cars. Thew
eonscripted the people for fighting and then used the armies for
industry, forcing the people to work under military discipline.
lhey found that communism was no substitute for brains as has
been found since the world began, and therefore Russian prole-
tariat Drawn has been Communicated by proletariat brains and
chained in compulsory slavery.
The ideals of the one big union work logically into anarchy
ana chaos, which evolve, naturally, into tyranny and slavery to
restore law and order. History is full of object lessons whereby
the masses simply exchanged masters with the substitution of a
new ruling caste, because the masses did not have the brains for

hundred pounds were thrown a dis tance of two miles away, but the larg- est fragments are found, as might have been expected, near the crater rim. The total weight of the rock elected from the crater has been esti- mated as 2o0,000,0o0 tons. but this is probably too low. There can be no doubt that enormous quantities of the rock flour were blown to great dis tances by the wind when the colli- sion took place.
 Scattered over the plains to a dis tance of 61s miles from the crater there are also found great numbers of iron meteorites, apparently outriding mem bers of the great swarm which hit the earth. It is believed that when the compact, central cloud reached us, a cushion of hot air pushed almost as a solid mass before 1t fell and that this cushion was mainly effective In mak- ing the crater. The tremendous out rush of air around the edges of the crater after the actual collision took place would have carried, not only the rocks of the earth, but also the outer meteorites. to great distances from the scene of the collision.
 Altogether this is one of the most re- markable and interesting features of the whole earth. The colliding body may be regarded as a compact meteor swarm or as a comet, but in the latter case we must suppose that the comet was a very small one.
 Mercury, which entered the morning sky on July 27, will attain it's great est western elongation on August If.

10 miles from the Canyon Diablo sta tion. Here there is a great round hole in the earth about 4.00O feet in diam eter, and the depth of which from the rim to the nearly level floor is about 570 feet.
 When this great depression was made the terrific force of the collision pulverized. and even melted, many tons of rock and also threw fragments to great distances. 1t also raised the rim around the hole named by early explorers Coon Mountain or Coon Butte" The whole region for many miles in every direction has now been very carefully surveyed and explored, and deep drillings have been made in the floor of the crater, partly in the hope of finding the great iron mass of the original meteorite itself. To date the latter search has, however, been unsuccessful.
 The elected material varies from very finely pulverized stone, which seems to have welled out of the crater like flour out of barrel" to great masses weighing 40o0 tons and more. Pieces weighing from 50 to several

exception of the remarkable object , known as the Dumbbell nebula. This is in the position M, almost exactly in line with the two stars K and L. Though visible in a 2-inch glass, it re- quires a much larger aperture to show it's complicated spiral structure. In a moderately large glass it appears only as two misty clouds, with many stars garound and between them.
 THE AUGUST SHOOTING STARS
 During the second week in August we have the nights of the August shooting stars or Porseids, so called because these little bodies dart outward in every direction from a radiating point in the constellation Persues, in the position s of Figure 1. Unfortunately, this con- stellation is below the Pole and very near the northeastern horizon in the early evening" but by midnight it has risen much higher in the sky, so that from midnight until dawn is the best time to watch this interesting display.
 The number of shooting stars soon will average about one each minute, or even more. Each one is merely little cold particle, or meteorite with which the earth collides, each particle being burned up and so rendered luminous by friction as it blows through our air. The great stream of millions of little particles stretches around the sun in the exact path of the bright comet of 1862, and it is highly probable that the stream is merely the remains of the comet which has been stretched out along it's orbit by the tidal action of the sun.
 The particles of sthis stream are very much scattered; it is even possi- ble that a very numerous shower of small meteoric stone which fell to the ground on July 19, 1912. were a part of the Perseid swarm, though from the absence of reliable observations upon the direction from which the stones of this shower came, this is by no means certain.
 There is at least one place on the earth where there is definite evidence that a great projectile or more prob- ably a compact swarm of meteoric stones struck us at one time with a very high velocity. This remarkable structure is known as Meteor Crater" It is in northwestern Arizona, about

THE STARRY SKIES IN AUGUST


The principal change in our evening skies since last month is the appearance of the four bright stars which form the Great Square of Pagasus Cat D, Figure D, and this beautiful figure will remain with us until the end of the year. The summer branch of the Milky Way has risen so high in the east that it now passes almost through the zenith and with it's many star clouds and it's long train of bright cancellations will well repay study with a small telescope
 The bright planets, Jupiter and Sa- turn, are very low in the west, and so nearly lost in the suns rays that they can only be viewed with difficulty in fact, during the month the former planet will enter the morning sky. There only remains with us the interest ing planet Mars, which now shines brightly in, our skies, and during the month will be seen to move entirely across Libra and well into Scorpio. It will be remembered that during the last two weeks of June the Red Planet formed beautiful pair with the bluish Spica Cat B; during the first days of August it will form an even more strill- ing pair with the widely double, golden star at c, but it will not remain near this star nearly so long as it remained in the vicinity of Spica, for the east ward motion of Mars is now very rapid. The planet Venus is also now in the evening sky. but it will not withdraw far from the suns rays during the pres ent month.
 THE AUGUST STARS
 The reader who is already familiar with the larger consultations will find it of much interest to gradually extend Eis knowledge by learning the fainter ones also. But few of these are named on Figure l, though their brighter stars are shown. For example, just north of Aquila is the stream of faint stars known as Sagitta, the Arrow, shot by Hercules toward Aquila and Cygnus and flying between them- Its most remark able object is a faint star just north of the star at F, which is rapid triple star, whose three suns are respectively of colors green, white and blue.
 To the east of Sagitta is the striking little group Dolphinus, often called Jobs Coffin.'' This constellation is of great antiquity: even to the Hindus, from whom the Greeks borrowed it, it was known as the Porpoise, but to the Greeks it became the Dolphin, which rescued Arion on his voyage to Corinth. Though so small a constellation, it con- tains many objects of interest Its brightest star, at F, is a variable, while each star marked H is a double or triple sun; the northernmost one is a beauti- full object in small telescope, it's com ponents being golden and bluish-green and Il seconds apart.
 The band of faint stars above Dol phinus and Sagitta is vulpecula, the Fox, while those between Dolphinus and Aquarius make up Equuleus, the Little Horse. Both of these constelations con- tain many double and triple Stars, whose positions may be found from any star atlas, but they contain no star clusters Or nebulae bright enough to be seen in a very small telescope, with the single

It will then rise far in the northeast little more than one hour before sun rise.
 Venus entered the evening sky on July ?, but throughout the month 1t re- mains so near the suns rays that it can only be seen with difficulty On Au- gust l it sets in the northwest about 50 minutes after sunset, and by Au- gust 3l this time is increased to nearly one hour In its steady eastward mo- ton out of the suns rays. Venus will pass S9 minutes north of Jupiter on August 8, and it will pass 2S minutes south of Saturn on August 22. These will be most interesting conjunctions to observe in small telescope, but the observations must be made very soon after sunset while the western sky is still very bright.
 Mars is now the only planet which Is conspicuous in the evening sky. It's distance from us will increase 12.4 millions of miles during the month, so that it will lose one-fourth of It's brightness. Throughout the month il. will nevertheless be most conspicuous in the southwest. shining with nearly twice the brightness of first mag

Russia's Past and Present

From The Mirror of the Russian Stage
 by Oliver M. Sayler, in Asia.
 One reason why the varoius aspects or the Russian stage is that the whole panorama of the nations existence has been kept strangely intact by the sur vival of anceint institutions. For the artists of the theatre, the traditions of any given period are close at hand, to be observed and transposed to serve as the background for plays dealing with that period. Probably no other Euro pean country has carried it's past down into it's present with 50 little change as Russia. These are days of violent change, however and together with po- litical and industrial revolution, a pro- found revolution of custom and tradl- ton is bound to set in, with the prob able result that the Russian theatre will preserve the only true record of departed days and moods.
 Just as the historic and imperial tra- dition lived down to our own day in customs and tradition of the Russian people underwent surprisingly few changes The aspect of life in the cities took on new forms in recent years, but not far from Moscow and Petrograd ferdai estates preserved the manner and the flavor of century ago. The great family stood at the head of hierarchy reaching down through gra- dations of servants and peasants to the villages. where customs. costumes and occupations had changed but slightly in hundred years. Pushkin and Gogol and Tureenieff could have returned to peasant Russia in the month just pre- ceding the revolution with little neces- sity for readjustment to new conditions. Even in the cities the peasants clung to their way of life during the months when they left the fields to work in the growing factories In their crude homespun clothes. into which they sewed themselves in the autumn and from which they did not emerge until spring. they could be seen on the streets of Moscow and in the open markets as proprietors Z the booths and the stalls; or in the traktira (cheap restaurants) over their bowls of borshch and shch

 Jupiter will enter the morning sky on August 22 and throughout the month is too nearly lost in the sun s rays to be well observed.

 to observe the planet Uranus. for 1t comes to opposition and is hence near est the earth, on August 27. It is slow ly retrograding and moving southward in Aquarius, and will pass exactly 37 minutes north of the star at A Gig. D on August 2. To make the search for the planet easier, the stars in the vicin- ity of A are shown in figure 8. The smallest dots there represent stars of the tenth magnitude, which will be too faint to be seen in any telescope of less than 1.6 inches aperture. The star at A is of magnitude 4.9, while the magnitude of the planet is 6.1. With the help of Figures and 3, Uranus can readily be found, but 1t will appear only as a dull greensh star in a small telescope. The planet is so far away that it's interesting system of four moons, revolving in periods of from 215 to 1872 days, and varying in size from 400 to 1000 miles in diameter, can only be seen in the largest telescopes.
