At about 6 o'clock on the morning
of the ED, by Eastern Standard
time, the sun will be on the point
of the ecliptic circle which is known
as the summer solstice. This point
marks the farthest north that the
sun reaches in its annual apparent
path through the heavens and is,
according to the American Ephe-
meris and Nautical Almanac, the
official astronomical publication of
our government, the sign post which
marks the beginning of summer.
Saturn and Jupiter are in excellent
position for observation, the. latter
almost on the meridian at map
time. the former to the west on the
opposite side of the frst-magnitude
star Spica in Virgo. Both Of them
are very slightly decreasing their,
brightness. Venus is a morning star.
and Mars is an evening star, but
are so close to the sun hat OBJ

ton to be observed as a morning
star before sunrise during the last
two weeks of the month.

| star. If we prolong the curve OF
the handle of the Dipper, the mag
mary line will lead us to Arcturus,
| which lies very near the meridian
at mar time. Arcturus is a first
magnitude star, or, to be exact, its
magnitude is plus OF. and it lies in
the constellation of Bootes.
To the eastward of Bootes is the
little circlet of stars known as Cor
ona Borealis. the Northern Crown,
with the bright star Comma as its
fairest jewel. To the westward OF
Bootes is the constellation called
Coma Berenices. Hair of Berenice,
which contains a cluster of stars
from whose appearance the group
name is derived. r. II. Burritt tells
in his book the following story of
its naming:
"Berenice was of royal descent and
a lady of great beauty who married
Ptolemy Softer. King of Egypt,
When he was going on a dangerous
expedition against the Assyrians she
vowed to dedicate her hair to the
Goddess of Beauty if he returned in
safety. Some time after the vic
torious return of her husband the
locks, which she had in conformity
with her vow deposited in the
Temple of Venus, disappeared. The
King expressed great regret at the
loss (~probably with great emphasis
also), whereupon Conon, his astron-
omer, publicly reported that Jupiter
had taken away the Queens locks
from the temple and placed them
the stars in this figure"
The Hunting Dogs
The third-magnitude star which is
shown on the pay within the curve
Of the Great Dipper's handle is some
called Cor Carroll, the heart of
Charles I. of England. 1t is, how
ever. far from a universally recog-
nized appellation. This and the sur
rounding belong to the con-
s~tellation of Canes Venatici, the
Hunting Dogs, which is not of the
classic constellation, but vas formed
by Hevelius about 1900 out of stars
up to that time assigned to the con-
stelIation of Virgo. Hevelius pictur-
ed these dogs as held in leash by
Bootes. the Bear Driver. Within the

Violated by Free

Paris, Aug. 20.-What is declared
10 be the truth relative TO the arrest
of Eamonn de Valera, the Irish re-
publican leader, was given out here
today by Chester Arthur, and spon-
sored by Countess Gabriac, who was,
before her marriage, Fanny Fithian.
Arthurs statement said:
THE British government stands
back of the Irish free state. De
Valera's arrest was the consequence
of trap. ireland officially was prom
ised that the election would be free
and that the voters would not be dis
turbed. no matter who they wished
TO vote for.
Accordingly, De Valera, unarmed,
called the meeting at Ennis, request
ing all who came to appear without
arms. Immediately the meeting be-
gan an armored car and a lorry full
OF soldiers appeared, firing rifles
loaded with bullets, as was proved by
, he fact that women who shielded De
Valera while he was lying on the
platform were struck.
The officer in command OF the
troops summoned De Valera TO sur
render, declaring that unless he did
ire would be opened upon the crowd.
while De Valera was carried away
by the troops in the armored car,

his safety"
