ownership and control over the Central
Pacific railroad.
The court at Its last term rendered
an opinion which reversed the United
States district court for Utah and held
that the ownership and control of the
Central Pacific by the Southern Pa­
cific was in violation of the Sherman
ntl trust act on the ground that the
two systems were competing under the
law.
The decision resulted in numbers
of petitions being presented to con­
gress by commercial and other organ­
izations, some urging and others op­
posing the enforcement of the deci­
sion. The refusal to -eopen the case
will result in the issuance of a man­
date to the district court in Utah to
gfte effect to the decision.
A fter the decision of the court last
June a number of petitions were pre­
sented to congress from commercial
and other organizations discussing the
probable effect of the decision. Some
urged and others opposed Its enforce­
ment, but the supreme court, in re­
fusing to reopen the case, brought the
protracted litigation to its last stages,
and a mandate will now issue under
which the United States district court
for Utah will proceed to give effect
to the decision.
Although no opinions were deliv­
ered by the supreme court, it cleared
its docket of all motions for rehearing»
which had accumulated during the
summer recess and advanced for argu­
ment the Pennsylvania anthracite and
the Minnesota iron tax, the New York
telephone and a number of other Im­
portant cases, besides issuing orders
in oth?r cases.
Cambridge, Mass.— The large Magel­
lanic cloud, a group of stars and ne­
bulae visible from the southern hemi­
sphere. which was believed to be some
sort of a small universe itself, proves
to be of staggering dimensions, it was
announced from the Harvard college
observatory Monday.
The first measurements of the dis­
tance and size of the cloud, accom­
plished by Harvard astronomers from
photographic plates made at their
Peruvian station, have established that
it is 110,000 light years from the earth
and that Its linear diameter is about
16.000 light years. A light year is six
trillion miles.
The Magellanic cloud, which re­
sembles in appearance the milky way.
Is separated from that system of stars
of which our solar system is a small
part. Photometric measures of the
Magellanic stars indicate that many
are actually fur brighter than any yet
found in our solar system. Hundreds
of these stars, it is said, were found to
exceed the brightness of the sum by
10.000 times.

O p HOSE happy-go-lucky individuals
who manifest so little Interest in
the stirring events of life, which are
buzzing like bees all around them, are
often insensible to their lamentable d«£
linquencles.
Occasionally, however, their con­
sciousness flutters a moment, but,
seemingly chunging Its benumbed
mind, yawns, nods and falls asleep to
dream.
But they are going to wake up and
do something tomorrow.
They will yank the <dd world from
Its easy chair and wake its billion in­
habitants with an earthquake.
Hitherto they have been shaping a
brilliant «-ourse, not quite matured yet,
or In a lit state to be presented In its
entirety to tltelr intimates, who have
wept over thtm, prayed for them, and
done their utmost to arouse them to
action.
There is. however, no declaration on
the part o f these liabituuted drones of
making undue haste.
The months und y«-nrs stretch ahead
in long rows on either side of tomor­
row's path. Why fuss, fluster and
worry ?
Why should they bother themselves
while youth is so full of delightful ex­
pectancies and time so ahundunt.
They nre not seeking the dull, com­
mon roads in life, hut the magnificent
avenues that take direct to fame nnd
wealth In th» glare of sunlight and
amid tlie plaudits o f an admiring
world, swept suddenly off its feet by
the daring work of genius.
So the yenrs drift by, and in their
drifting there comes sometimes to
tin-se disciples of the god of futurists
a petrifying fear that makes them sick
at heart.
With an odd mixture of humility and
pride stirring in their ill-arranged
brain they are prompted to exertion.
But tliey have unconsciously lost the
skill which was theirs when life was
vibrant with power. They reach out
but tliey touch not. And now, ail o f
a sudden, a terrible realization over­
whelms them.
