HEW STAR PUZZLES Origin of Vagrant Celestial Discussed by Astronomer. J. W. DANIELS GIVES VIEWS Professor Kxprees Opinion That New Star Is in No "Way Con nected With Kclipse of Lat Saturday. The debatable origin of the new star, that celestial vagrant which strayed Into the ken of the world with abrupt ness on Saturday night, is interestingly discussed by Professor J. W. Daniels, of Hill Military Academy, who was one of the party of astronomers who visited Goldendale on Saturday to wit ness the eclipse, and who closed a per fect day with the amazing sight of the brilliant blue star. "While a number of us interested In astronomy," said Professor Daniels yesterday, "were standing on the depot platform at Maryhlll, Wash., on our way to Portland, from an excursion to Goldendale to see the eclipse, one of my companions, who, like us all, was studying the sky at 3 A. M. last Sun day, called my attention to a bright star near Altairs, and asked If I knew what it was. It proved to be the new star. This star, like two others in astronomical history, blazed forth Into sight in full splendor, astonishing the profession. Origin la Debatable. "here are two ways in which a ce lestial body new to the universe comes into the field of vision. If a lighted body comes from a distant universe to our own, because its orbit trends in this direction in space, unless It meets with some body or matter extraneous to Itself, it will at first appear as v ery dim star, growing brighter as It pproaches the solar system. 'If, however, a star appears sud- enly and brilliant at the moment of ts appearance. It Is probably because Its passage through space It hae met with disaster In way of collision, rlotion or explosion. Matter in a finely divided state is found in great clouds called nebulas cattered Irregularly through space and strononilcal research and experimen- ation has conclusively proven that un old millions of unlighted globes are likewise scattered everywhere. Heavenly Collision Possible. "If, then our 'new star,' In Its pas sage, should arrive at the crossing of own orbit with that of another peeding world at the same time that this sptedtnsr world arrived' at this crossing, a collision must occur the im pact of which would reduce both the colliding globes to a nebula, and the friction of collision would heat to the utmost all this nebulous matter in an nstant of time; thus the nebula, before being too far scattered by the colli sion through space, would instantly hine forth as a star more or less bril- lant, according to the size of the col liding worlds and their velocity at the moment of impact. Klipne Theory Remote. 'Again, the new star may have come across an amount of nebulous matter space, and its passage through it would create friction sufficient to heat the entire nebulous matter to a white heat; but this nebulous matter, at dis tances too gneat to determine its size, would instantly light up as If suddenly created in space, and would shine forth at such distance as a new star. It t -uuiiw mi ii am me The Popular Motor Oil would be merely a great conflagration In the heavens. "Another possibility also: A world that had cooled off on the outside, but hot internally, may. from unknown causes, have suddenly exploded ana thus as suddenly exposed and spread out the heated matter within. This theory has less of probability, the more credible being that our new star has become such and so blazed forth suddenly because, though dark before, it has met with some great catastrophe In the way of a collision, setting sud denly at a white heat. "Let me add that. In my opinion, the 'new star' is in no way connected with the recent eclipse and that, unless its orbit is determined aa trending in the direction of the solar system. It will not affect conditions on the earth in the least." UNION LEADERS ANGRY WESTERN USilON SAID TO HAVE DISCHARGED EMPLOYES. Two Operators Refuae to Sign Testi monial Addressed to Prealdeat Wilson Pledging Loyalty. Leaders in the telegraphers' organi zation movement were up In arms last night because the Western Union Com pany was said to have discharged two of its employes who declined to sign the loyalty declaration circulated . at the main and branch offices by com pany officials. According to statements made last night Miss H. French and Miss Bessie Smith were dismissed from the employ of the Western Union when they steadfastly refused to sign the testl monlal addressed to President Wilson and deprecating friction between em ployes and the telegraph companies as disloyal to the Nation at this time. While maintaining that their cause is strengthened by present tactics of the company officers. unionization leaders declared they would seek to end the. "intimidation" practices.
