THE SOUTHERN CROSS.
FLOATING SPOOK HANDS.
Ms Name Dose Net Quite Pit This
Wondrous Constellation.
The Southern Crone, wonderful alike
to those living In the southern half
of the world and to the tourist thereto,
is on# of tbs most conspicuous and In­
teresting of all tbe southern* configura­
tions.
Sltuatsd at s dlxtiinr« of about thirty
degrees from tbe eoutb pole. It Is plain­
ly visible In all regioua south of tba
equator, and also to some dlatance
north, about aa fur aa tbe tropic of
Cancer, Tbe farther south one travels

tbe cross, and naturally tbe more con­
spicuous It becomes.
It Mams to have received Its name,

from tbe ancients, but like moot of tbe
southern configurations from tbe Ppe-
tuguese navigators, daring their ex­

Taken all In alL, this constellation of
the Southern Cross, which has been
the wonder of centuries, still holds Its
place as a remarkable curiosity, even
with tbe advance of astronomical in­
vestigation. and with tbe data obtain­
ed from tbe spectroscope and tba
photograph, oar efforts still find un­
limited problems yet to be solved. And.
above all others that of the Southern
Cross Is yet far from a complete eola­
