OLDTINIE NEW STARS.

Away back in the year 1874 there
appeared bright star about which
we know very little, save that its APP
pearance led the Greek philosopher
Hipporchus, to form a catalogue
showing the positions Of the bright
stars, so that in future It would be
an easy matter to identify a new star
This was the beginning Of our modern
star catalogues, which now register
the exact position Of every star WIS.,
ible in ordinary telescopes.
The third famous one recorded was
by Tycho, in 1872. Win first seen 1t
was already brighter than Jupiter, and
very soon became as bright as Venus
herself, being ever visible by day.
Within a week or two 1t began to fade,
but continued visible to the naked eye
for full sixteen months before 1t fully
disappeared.
Coming down to more modern times
there appeared a new star in the
group, or constellation, known as
Auriga. This was not particularly
bright one, but instruments, like the
spectroscope, had by this time been
invented which made possible the
analysis of the stars light, and this
was the first nova upon which the new
instrument was tried out. A great deal
of information was thus obtained, and
better methods of investigation for
subsequent outbursts were thereby
brought to light. - Victoria Colonist
