Not q Good Match
While Charley has entertained
nicely around Washington rings
with the various talent which he
has been asked to meet, since
his name was first mentioned as
an opponent for Lew Feldman,
we were of the opinion it was
not an equitable match. Won
Reedon is not yet ready to meet
the crafty New York 130-
FOUNDER.
We would even go so far as to
say that the withdrawal of Char.
ley was a break for the Riding
and Hunt Club which naturally
wishes to get off to an auspicious
start in it's boxing promotions.
Won Reedon and Feldman, you
may suspect by now, were moth
ing like a natural in our belief,
all Of which is said with the
greatest charity toward Sir
Charles who was simply over
matched as the original foe of
Feldman.
Judge Indignant
The name Of Joe Judge never
breaks into print that an Incl
dent in his baseball experiences
at Brooklyn doesn't come to
mind.
Joe declares he was never so
indignant in his life, not even
excepting when he was released
by Brooklyn, as when the then
manager of the Dodgers, Max
Carey, decided about year ago
now, that Judge didn't have
the proper batting stance, and
undertook to change his position
at the plate.
"Can you beat that" Joe
observed to a group of friends
when reminiscing over the in
cident up at the Jewish Com
munity Center before he under.
took to play first base for, and
manage the Baltimore Orioles.
''Me, with q 300 lifetime bat
ting average on the Washington
ball club covering periods when
the dead ball, half dead ball
and lively ball were in vogue,
and Carey trying to teach me
how to stand at the plate. was
] mortified" he declared in his
best Durante accent.

Visits in Starland.
Rig TeIeScOpeS.

THE famous Calico looked at the
planets and stars through tele-
scopes which were only an inch
Il or two in diameter. He saw
many things which had not
been seen before-moons going around
the planet Jupiter. for eXample-out
he did not have nearly the help which

What would Calico say if he could
return to life after three centuries
and behold our modern telescopes?
feel sure that he would be so happy
that he could hardly express his joy.
One great present-day telescope is
at Yerkes Observatory, Lake Geneva.
Wis. 1t has lens 40 inches
wide, and through it men look d.
rectly at the stars. Fine work has
been done with this telescope in
study of the Milky Way.
A different type of telescope is to
be found at Victoria, B. c., and other
places. This kind is known as re
f1ector" because it has mirror to
reflect lignt from the stars. Those
who use it look at the mirror instead
of directly at the stars.
The telescope at Victoria has a To-
inch mirror
A still larger telescope is in use at
Mount Wilson, Calf 1t has a mirror
100 inches wide. With this mighty
telescope, which weighs 100 tons,
about 1,5Oo,0OO,0O0 stars have been
brought into view.
At present, the Mount Wilson tele-
scope is the largest in the world but
it will not hold that honor long. Men
are building a telescope which will
have a mirror 200 inches-more than
l6 feet-Widel
The greatest problem about the new
telescope has been to make the mirror.
Efforts to form it of fused quartz
failed after three years of work. Then
it was decided to test special kind
of glass. and a mold was made for
test mirror of smaller size. After five
months of cooling, the test mirror,
weighing five tons, was taken frcm
the mold
Last month the mold for the 200
inch mirror was finished, at Corning.
N. Y. and in less than a year We are
likely to read Of the successful mold
ing of the largest telescope mirror
ever made.
The new telescope is expected to
bring into view hundreds of millions
of stars never seen before. With 1t,
we shall learn far more about the
Wondrous universe around us.

Fire Losses in State Decrease

Montana's fire loss in 1888 was ap-
proximately a million dollars less than
the previous year, according to State
Fire Marshal John w. Mountjoy, who
was a visitor in Butte a few days ago.
The fire marshal reported that the loss
was 81 per cent under 1882. He also
stated that fires believed to be of in
cendiary nature dropped ~ per cent.
The Montana public is becoming bet
ter educated in fire prevention, Marshal
Mountjoy stated.
