BEGINNING OF TIME.

IT IS GREENWICH WHICH TELLS US
WHAT O’CLOCK IT IS.

 

 

lllarvelous Instruments Employed by the

Scientists in Charge of the Great 0b-

servutory—Tlie Point Whose Longitude

is Zero.

Doubtless every student of geogra-
phy has had his curiosity aroused}
regarding Greenwich Observatory,
whence longitude is reckoned and
where the world sets its timepieces;
and has been desirous of learning more
about the dwelling place of “Longi-
tude Nadght” and the chronometer
that regulates the clocks of the world.
The purpose of this article is to grat-
ify such curiosity; and to describe,
briefly, some of the wonders of the
great observatory.

The most important room of the

. ‘whole observatory is the transit room.
fill-Four broad stone pillars occupy the
greater part of the space of this room.
Two of these pillars are tall, as well
as broad and massive. They stand
east and west of the center of the room
and carry between them the Transit
circle. Here is the home of “Longi-
tude Naught”; for the optical axis of
the great telescope of the transit circle
marks the exact spot crossed by the
prime meridian of the world. Two
other telescopes are in the room, one
to the north and one to 'the south of
the transit circle, mounted on the
two remaining pillars and both on the
line of the optical axis of the transit
circle. .

' THE GREEN‘VICH TRANSIT CIRCLE.

There are two somewhat different
senses in which the meridian of Green-.
Wich is the standard meridian of near-
ly the entire world. It constitutes the
fundamental line whence distances
east and west are measured; and it
gives the time to the world.

It will be interesting to note how
time is found.

The great telescope, already de-
scribed as occupying the center of the
transit room, is very solidly mounted.
Its pivots are supported by the pair of
great stone pillars, whose foundations
go deep down under the surface of the
hill; and it turns but in one plane,
that of “Longitude Naught.” On the
west side of the telescope, and rigidly
connected with it, is a large wheel,
with a number of wooden handles fas-
tened to it, like the steering-wheel of
a large steamer. This wheel carries
the setting circle, which is engraved
on a band of silver let into the face and
_back of the wheel near its circumfer-
ence. Eleven microscopes penetrate
through the pier, and are directed at
the circle on the back of the wheel.
These are the instruments used in
finding time.

Time is usually determined by the -

watching of passing stars. The stars
are used for this purpose, because they
are many and the sun is but one. It
clouds hide the sun at noon, the only
time when it can be observed to de-
termine time, a day is lost; but if one
star is covered by a cloud there are
still many others than can be ob-
served- Star transits can be taken at
various times°throughout the day and
night, while the sun can be used only
once a day.

About two minutes before the ap-
pointed time the operator takes his
place at the eye-piece of the telescope.\
As he looks in he sees a number of

vertical lines across his field of View“

These are spider—threads placed in the
focus of the eye-pierce. Presently a
brightpoint of silver light comes mov-
ing quickly, steadily dnward. The
watcher’s band now seeks the side of
me telbmpe till his finger finds a little
button, over which it rests ready to
strike, On comes the star “without
haste, without rest” till it reaches one
of the gleaming threads. . Tap! The
finger falls sharply on the button. In
three or four seconds later the star has
reached another thread. Tap! Again
the button is struck; and so on until
the ten threads have been passed and
the transit is over.

Now what have the finger taps done?
Each tap completed, for an instant, an
electric circuit and recorded a mark
on the “chronometer.” This is a
large metal cylinder covered with pa-
per, and turned by a carefully regu-
lated clock once in every two minutes.
‘A similar mark is made once in every
two seconds by a current sent by
means of the standard siderial clock
of the Observatory. If, then, one 01
the clock dots and one of the observer’s
dots come exactly side by side, it is
known at what precise second the star

was on one of the wires, as the spider-
If the observa

threads are called.
er’s dot comes between tw0 clock dots,
it is easy, by measuring its distance
from them with a dividing scale, to tell
the instant the star was on the wire to
the tenth part of a second. Since the
transit was taken over ten wires and
the distance of each wire from the.
center of the field of view is known,
practically ten separate observations

I

THE

Ihave been made, and the average of
l these gives the time of transit.

At the Observatory there is a. great
clock, called the siderial clock, which
registers twenty-four hours in the pre—
cise time that the earth rotates once On
its axis, or the time when a. given star
would again appear on a fixed merid-
1311. Hence, since the exact time is
known when the star ought to be on
the meridian, this clock can be read-
ily checked by the observations of star.

THE CHRONOGRAPH.

The error of the clock is determined
twice a. day, shortly before ten o’clock
in the morning and shortly before one
o’clock in the afternoon. These two
times are chosen because, at ten and
one o’clock signals are sent to all the
great provincial centers. Also at one
o’clock the time ball at Greenwich and
at Deal are dropped, so that the cap-
tains of ships within sight of the drop-
ping-mast may set their chronometers.

Thus is time found and regulated at
the great Observatory.

The rating of chronometers for the
Royal Navy is one of the most import‘
ant duties of the Observatory. Here
they are carefully tested until their
time keeping qualities are as perfect
as human skill can make them.

There is little of the picturesque or
sensational in the regular routine work
of the Observatory. The daily observa-
tion of the sun and of many stars—call-
ed clock stars, the determination of the
error of the standard clock and it's cor«
rection twice a day, the sending out
of time signals, the care, winding and
rating of hundreds of chronometers
and the determination, from time to
time, of the exact longitude of foreign
and colonial cities make a ceaseless
round of work. Yet there is a charm
in it all to those who delight in the
handling of delicate and exact instru-
ments which renders its dreary routine
fascinating.

A. Cautious Man.

“It’s a good thing to be cautious
when among strangers,” said the pre-
cise-looking man to a tall, angular
old fellow, to whom he was talking on
the deck of an Atlantic liner.

“Yes,” was the response, ”you can’t
always tell who you’re talking to when
you don’t know, and strangers thrown
together, as we are, are very likely to
make mistakes if they don’t look out.”

“That’s what I think about it,” said
" the precise one. ”There are several

people around that I’d like to know
who they are, but I feel a delicacy in
asking.”

“Who, for instance?” asked the tall
party. letting his eyes wander about
the deck.

"Well, there’s a lady standing there,
by that door, talking to a young fellow,
who looks as if he might be her son.”

“That far door?” inquired the tall
party, stretching his neck around.

“Yes.”

“She looks as it she might bite a nail
in two?” _

“Yes."

"Got a jaw on her like a vice!”

“Yes.”

"Keeps it going all the time, as it
there wasn’t any such thing as an
eight—hour law?”

"Yes.”

"Got a bonnet on that looks as if it
might be a sign for a vegetable gar-
dencr?”

“Yes.”

“Got a complexion like a slab of tan
- bark?”

“Yes." .

“Got clothes on that look as if
they’d been made out of last year’s

‘ circus 'posters?” '

“Exactly—she’s the. one!
she?”

The tall party got up to have a better
look before committing himself.

“She’s a jay from Westminster, ain’t
she?” he saidgwith a laugh, as he sat
down again. .

“Yes. Who is she?”

“0h, she’s my wife. Let me take
you over and introduce you.”

But the cautious man declined, and
managed to lose himself in the crowd
as quickly as possible.

Sublime and the Ridiculous.

A sentimental gentleman, out for an
hour’s sail, was rhapsOdising in the
following terms:—-“When we contem-

light of day, or again in the fading
shades of the evening, when the stars
. begin to appear one by one with in-
‘ creasing splendour, are not our souls
impregnated with a. sense of sublim-
ity, of rapture, of mystic awe? Oh,
my friend’t—turning to the man at the
helm—“oh, my friend, what do you
think?”—“Think?—why. I thinks it’s
wery loikely." ‘

ROPES orV HUMAN HAIR.

 

9110 of Them Kept In the Great museum
ufthe Smithsonian Institution.

In the :iirteenth year of Meiji (1880)
lliiamarz Rei, High Priest of Japan
.nd chief dignitary at the Temple
Hon—2am, which is the principal tem—
ple in the Japanese Empire, decided to
rebuild a portion of the Hon-gwan-jn
Temple at Kioto, and after the man-
ner of priests and other religious lead-
ers in all countries, called upon the
faithful to aid in the. enterprise.

Those to whom he and his subordin-
ate priests miniacred, being devout
Buddhists, gave of the. which they
had. Many gave gold and silver, and
others, which to A nericans will seem
strange, gave. of the hair from their
heads.

Immense quantities of hair were
given. They were sent to Hiramatz
Rei from eight provinces of Japan, and
were considered the most sacred of all
the gifts that were received for the
construction of the temple, it being a
greatsacrifice for a follower of Budd-
ha to part with his or her hair. Under
the dzrection of the Buddhist priests
these gifts of hair were made into
ropes—ropes that could lift the heav-
iest timbers that were used in the re-
SEOI‘ELLIOII of the temple. So great was
the aggregate quantity of hair contri-
buted by the faithful that fifty-three
long lines of ropes were made of it.
These ropes, had they been placed end
'0 end, would have measured 9,972
feet, and their combined weight was
23.51? pounds.
During the rebuilding of the Hon-
gwan-ji Temple many foreigners tried
{‘0 get portions of these hair ropes, but
it was not until 1890 that the priests
could be prevailed upon to part with
any portion of these curious yet sacred
instruments which they were using in
there construction of their temple, and
then only would they part with a por-
tion of one of the ropes as a gift to the
American people.

‘\ ’hen the priests of the Temple
Hong—wan—ji were asked for a piece of.
inc of the ropes they refused to part
with it, fearing that it would be pro—
faned by being in the hands of unbe-
lievers. but when Hiramatz Rei was
asked for it and was told that itwould
be received by the American nation as
an espeeial gift, and, as such, kept in
its great museum the Smithsonian In—
stitution, he gavea piece of one of the
3 old ropes to the people of the United
States. The piece of rope was sent to
this country as quickly as possible af—
ter it had been prepared for shipment,
and is now in Washington. How
many thousands of hairs there are in it
no one knows, and how many millions
upon millions of hairs there were in
the original 23,517 pounds of‘rope no
one can guess—New York Times.

 

Easter Eve Custom in Italy.

Travellers in Italy are able during
the last week of Lent to study the orig-
in of the spring cleaning. During
this time every nook and corner is
turned out by busy housewives, who
are “preparing for the Holy Water of
Easter Eve"——when every house of
high and low, rich and poor, must be
looking its best, and a table spread
with the viands for the Easter dinner.
including specially lamb and eggs.
For 011 that day the parish priest
knocks at every door, and, followed by
the whole family and servants, walks
through all the rooms, blessing the
house and sprinkling bed and board
with holy water. At the end of the
ceremony the Easter offering, pence or
pounds, aucording to the means of the
donor, is presented by the head of the
family, with the words “Christ is Ris-
en,” to which the priest replies, “Alle-
luia, He is risen indeed."——Philadelphia
Ledger. ‘

Clever Smoke Device.

The Japanese have a. curious way of
clearing railroad tunnels of smoke and
gases. Each end of the tunnel is pro—
vided with a canvas curtain, hung at
the top so that when it is dropped it
covers the. entire mouth of the tunnel.
When a train enters the tunnel the
curtain. at that end is dropped, and it
is kept down until the train leaves the
other end of the tunnel. The result is
that all the smoke and gases are car- _,
ried along with the train and forced
into the open air at the further end 0.
the tunnel. It is asserted that this
plunger action is’so perfect that smoke
from an engine seldom reaches as far
back as the middle of the train.
entific men are puzzled to account for
the succcess of the system.—~Boston
Budget.

CURRENT HUMOR.

“We are mad,” exclaims the editor of
a paper in the backwoods of Tennessee.”
“Darn the people! How can they ex—
pect us, out here, twelve miles from a
railroad, twenty—five miles from a. riv-
er, millions of miles from heaven,
about two miles from the devil and
about two hundred yard-s from a whis—
key 'shop to get out a lively newspa-
per!”

 

“You was in the mlnstrel business,
wasn’t you, Mr. Marigold?” “Why, no,
Johnny. What makes you ask that?”
“Pa said that, if you could only be
corked up, you wouldn’t be such a bad
sort of fello-w.”Cleveland Plain Deal-

Said the married man who'likes to
be sympathized with: “My wife is nev-

“How happy she must be!” said the,

He is new Cured, and He Thanks God
and P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Rem-
edy, For lt_.

Mr. George Briggs, of Moore. Olcla.,
suffered almost indescribable torment
for three long years. Neuralgia held
him captive. The right side of his face
was so badly affected that the slightest
touch would cause the unfortunate
man intense agony. For several weeks

. he could open his mouth just wide

enoughto be fed with liquid nourish~

ment, and in this manner life was sus-

tained. Read the following extract

from his letter: “Truth is stranger

than Fiction.”

NEURALGIA, CATARRH AND RHEUMA-
TISM COMPLETELY CURED.

George Briggs, of Moore, Oklahoma,
writes that P. P. P., Lippman’s Great
Remedy, cured him of catarrh, facial
neuralgia. and rheumatism, after three
years of intense suffering. The pain
lay in his. cheek bone and temple, down
the. right side of his face, along his
upper lip, and from the slightest touch
he suffered agonies for weeks at a time.
Could only open his mouth wide enough
to admit a. teaspoon, and any acid in
his food would put him in torture. He
had a. consultation of the best physi-
cians in Texas, but all to no purpose.

Catarrh and rheumatism were also
causing him much trouble, until he
tried P. P. P. He says he is well and
will swear that there are no cases of
neuralgia, catarrh and rheumatism,
no matter how chronic or how old the
cases are. that P. P. P. will not make
a. total cure of.

Mr. Briggs winds up his testimony
by saying he thanks God and our ined-
lcine, l’. P. P., Lippman‘s Great Rem-
edy, for the great cure.

Kidney troubles, if neglected. bring
about serious and painful and very'
often fatal results. P. P. P. removes
the irregularities, and cures the dis‘
eased parts.

Dyspepsia and indigestion, skin and
blood diseases, can be speedily removed
by P. P. P., Lippman‘s Great Remedy.

Ladies, take P. P. P. and rid your
face of pimples, blotches. freckles,
yellow. or muddy skin, wrinkles and
vulgar redness.
