Fear of the Maine Statesmdn For' His
» -Wife andnaughter.
‘ Few who know him would pretend to
doubt the courage of .“Tom” Reed under
any circumstances. The man who calm.
1y faces the wrath of the, whole Demo-
cratic party'and who smiles at the picture
of Kilgore kicking down the doors of the
House must needs he [possessed of a few-
grains of “sand.” -
Incredible. as it seems, however, there
are times when the big man from Maine
is a coward and confesses there are two
persons on earth of whom he is absolutely
afraid—his wife and his only child. Yet
Mrs. Reed is a little woman, pretty and
amiable, and Miss Reed, who adores her
father, is a sweet-faced, brown-eyed
slender girl, still in her teens. It is not
in private life that Mr. Reed quails be-
fore his nearest and dearest ones, but in
public, when making a speech, that he
hates, above all things, to see his wife
anddaughter looking down upon him
from the galleries.
The seats may be packed with all sorts
of people, as they always are when he
speaks, and if there were bombs in all
their pockets, ”Tom” Reed would go on
serenely, without fear or favor. But
when Mrs. and Miss Reed meekly declare
their intention of being two of the spec-
tators, he gets weak in the knees. The
”Czar,” the “Autocrat,” the “Usurper,”
the “Tyrant” backs down ingloriously,
and begs his wife and daughter to spare
him and stay at home. He does not care
a copper for the public, but he fears those
gentle foes of his own household, and it is
a great relief when he can persuade or
bribe them to stay at home.
A FAMILY’S FORTUNE.
How Lost, How Bestored.——-—A Story of they
Kentucky Mountains.
“I had a glimpse of life in the Kentucky
mountains the other day that I will not
soon forget,” said the capitalist. “I made
a trip. into that section as the representa-
the of a syndicate to look at some coal
Ends. I Went as far as I could, by rail,
and then took a horse and rode into the
Wilderness. Toward night I brought up
at a little cabin, of which I had been pre-
viously informed, and made arrangements
to spend the night there.
“In this establishment were living a man
and his wife and eight children, the oldest
being 12 years. They lived on corn meal
and milk, with occasionally some pork.
Both the man and the woman were bare—
footéd. The elder children had clothes
enough to cover their nakedness, and the
younger were not so fortunate.
After supper the man went out to feed
the hogs and the cow . and do other
chores. .
“I talked to the woman for about an
hour, and succeeded with great difficulty
in etting her story.”
“ e weren’t always this way,” ‘she
said. 3- '
“We were well off once. We saved
enough, him and me, so that we were
rich. “'6 had $27 laid away once.”
That was her idea of wealth. Twenty—
seven dollars! She went on to say that
the children had come fast, that acow
had to be bought, and that 'she cost $18.
The children had fallen sick, and a doc-
tor had to be brought in from civilization
and he cost five dollars, and so it Went
nothing left of that magnificent $27.
The next morning I paid them my
lodging. I had slept in the loft and the
family had slept in the room below. I
had brought with me a huge lot of roast-
beef sandwiches, and ate those for my
supper and breakfast, for I had been
warned that I probably could not get any—
thing to eat there. Before leaving I took
$27, and, wrapping it up in a newspaper,
left it on the table in the middle of the
room. Then I rode away, feeling vastly
pleased with myself, and knowing that
there was one mountaineer-’5 family in
Kentucky that had recovered its lost fort-
une.”-——Louisville Courier-Journal.
TO FIND A STAR’S DISTANCE.
It Takes a Measure 186,000,000 Miles Long
and Six Months’ Time.
The measurement of the distance of a"
star is a very beautiful problem, and the
fundamental principle is perfectly simple.
It depends on the revolution of the earth
around the sun. On the first of January
the earth is about 186,000,000 miles from
the place it will occupy on the first of
July, because on those two dates it is at
opposite points in its orbit, and the dis-
tance across the orbit is 186,000,000 miles.
The diameter of the earth’s orbit thus
serves the purpose of a surveyor’s base
line. {It is plain that the direction in
which a star is seen cannot be exactly the
same from both ends of that line unless
the star’s distance is so immense that the
diameter of the earth’s orbit bears no
measurable ratio to it. Most of the stars
are so distant that that ratio cannot be
ascertained, but there are a few whose ap-
parent places are appreciably different
when viewed from the extremities of our
186,000,000 mile base line. Acdording to
Dr. Elkin, the position of Arcturus is
thus shifted to the amount of .018 of a
second of arc, and this is called its paral—
lax. How exceedingly delicate the meth-
ods employed in measuring such a quan-
tity must be can, perhaps," be understood
when it is stated that .018 of a second of
arc is equal to the apparent distance be-
tween the heads of two pins placed one
inch apart and viewed from a distance of
iso‘milesl
Having ascertained the parallax of a
star the next step is an easy one. Multi—
pi y the earth’s distance from the sun, 93,-
000,000 miles, by the number 206,265, which
is a mathematical constant that I shall
not here undertake to explain, and divide
the result by the parallax of the star. The
quotient will be the star’s distance in
miles. If we apply this rule in the case
of Arcturus we have 1,065,790,250,000,000
miles. In round numbers, one thousand‘
[millions of millions of miles, or about 11,-
400,000 times the distance of the sun from
the earth. The reader may jotdown in
his note book the number 19,000,000,000,-
000, leaving 03 the less significant figures
we have used above, and it will enable
him to ascertain the approximate distance
in miles of a star whose parallax is given,
this number being used as a dividend, and
the parallax, expressed in the form of a
decimal fraction, as a divisor.——Garrett P.
Serviss in N. Y. Sun.
