established with Han Francisco instead
of Vancouver, but as there is no imnio
diatu indication of the United .States lay

on the opportunity now presented, and
it ia not to be wondered at. The people

It is painted to indicate the places left

Carnegie company tried to get some
other method of bolting the plates. An

their credit and churacter, have deter

not then. Manager Dudgeon, of the

quarters Ht Chicago, have combined for
ces. They w ill demand the appointment
of a committee by the chamber of com
merce to go to Ciiicago and examine the
operations of the syndicates. Later, by
paying all expenses, they claim they
w ill show their operations are legitimate
and will then take legal action against
all persons who have criticised them and
thereby caused the recent run.

Chicago, Oct. 27. Professor T. S. C.
Lowe, of Pasadena, Cal., the inventor
and owner i.f tho Mount Lowe railroad,
and also an astronomer of note, thinks
the invention of a Chicago man has rev
olutionized tho entire scope of telescopic
research. Mr. Lowe is making a busi
ness trip throupb the Kast, and is stop
ping in Chicago for a few days. Ho has
examined the new telescope invented by
L. Ciatham, of this city. Mr. Gatham
and his new glass have heretofore been
pronounced exceedingly visionary, and
the inventor is naturally elated over the
indorsement of a man of the scientific
standing of Professor Ixwe. Mr. Gath
am's method of construction is diametri
cally opposed to the old plan. Instead
of the iK'ge lens, which, owing to the
difficulties surrounding manufacture,
bus always been full of defects, Mr.
Gatham has built a telescope composed
of a number of small lenses, two inches
in diameter. These lenses are set in a
stiff glass frame, or sash, and are ex
ceedingly dense and clear. The com
bined effect of the small lenses causes
them to net as a single lens. Telescope
builders have denounced this theory as
totally impracticable. Professor Lowe
says the idea is a success, and ia one of
the most iuiportant discoveries for years
in astronomical ecience, and he adds:
"I confess Hiatwhen the idea waa first
presented to me I was not favorably im
pressed with its practicability. I prom
ised to look at Mr. Gatham's invention,
however, at my earliest opportunity,
and so Tuesday night 1 examined it. I
can only say I was exceedingly surprised
and pleased to see the moon and belts of
Jupiter in looking through Mr. Gatham's
7-inch telescope. The oceans and divis
ions of Mara were also defined in an as
tonishingly clear manner, notwithstand
ing all the adverse conditions which sur
round Chicago for astronomical observa
tions. I have a 10-inch instrument on
Mount Lowe, but if Mr. Gatham's tele
scopes were put upon the market, the
Mouit Lowe Company would be willing
to place one of them. I aee no reason
w hy a 50 inch instrument could not be
made which would work wonders in as
tranomical discovery. Such a telescope
as the Lick could not, in my opinion, be
put in the same class with a telescope
built on these lines. It opens the entire
question anew, and it looks to me as if
no limit ctin now be puton the possibili
ties of sidereal research. It is certainly
a wonderful discovery."
Mr. Gatham says he can build an in
strument for $1000 which will be as ef
fective as toe famous Lick telescojie.
The Wound Not I'owder-Bumed.
Ciiicvtio, Oct. 27. Charles Po"ve!l,

Nellie Sweetman, shot, died this morn
