liiK for u NIMV Out .
The newly organized city council began
work In earnest last night. All thu members
were present , except Duncan , and a tre
mendous amount of business was disposed of
with more than ordinary dispatch.
Councilman O'Malloy signalized the be
ginning of his ofllclal career by starting a
crusade against the Ice trust. Ho offered the
following resolution , which was unanimously
adopted :
AGAINST THE ICE TUUST.
Whorea ? , Thcro Is an association of per
sons In the cities of Omaha and South
Omaha , organized for the purpose of eon-
trolling thu I'rlco of ice and preventing
competition , an association commonly
known ns an "Ico trust ; " and.
Whereas , This association nibltrarlly flxoa
the price of Ice , conditions under which It
must be bought , n to time , from whom and
tit what price ; and ,
Whereas , Said nsroclatlon or trtiHt baa
for some time , and Is now exacting cxorbl.
tnnt prices from consumers , and , having a
thoroughly organized monopoly , Ifl compel
ling said consumers to pay said exorbitant
prices ; nnd.
Whereas , Said trust or association has , In
addition to charging exorbitant price ? , es
tablished obnoxious rules , ono of which re
quires private consumcis to pay for Ice In
advance , thus giving * nld tiust tlui bcncllt
of the use of about SCO.CWO per year of the
people's money without compensatory bone-
lit ; and ,
Whereas , Trusts nnd associations of such
character are Inimical to the publlo weal
and are forbidden by the statute ? of the
state of Nebraska ; now , therefore , bo It
Hesolvrd. by the city council of the city
of Omaha. That the legislature Is hereby
respectfully requested to direct the attorney
general to forwlth proceed to enforce the
statutes In such cases provided ; and be It
further
Hesolvcd , That the attorney pencral bo
Instructed to urge the county attorney of
Doiulas county to take such notion as will
result In tbo enforcement of sal'l statutia ,
and In the destruction of raid monopoly.
Hesolved , That the cltv clerk Is hereby
directed to make a rertllled copy or copies
of said resolution , that the same may be
presented to said legislature.
IN MEMOUY OP JOHN GHOVES.
The following resolution was also offered
by O'Mallcy and adopted by a rising vote :
Whereas In dispensation of Dlvlno
Providence John Groves , formerly city clerk
of Omaha , has passed from the mortal Io
the Immortal , and It Is duo to his memory ,
as a faithful public olllelal and a worthy
citizen , that the council shall wlvo appro
priate expression to the general feeling of
resrct at his death ; therefore , bo It
Herolvod , That as a public oUlclal , both
In the servlre of the city nnd county , Jo'in
Grovea wnn conscientious , capable , ener-
petlc and prosre-sslvp. Ho was prompt and
careful In t u > performance of every duty ,
and gave tn the public service at all times
bis best efforts.
Kesolvcd That as a citizen of Omaha for
many years , liolnjf classe" ! nmonir the old
residents. Mr. Grove0 established a char
acter as an upright and incorruptible innn.
a warm-heaited and constant friend ard
his Roncroslty was onlv limited by his
menai He was a mo- < * . filial son and a de
voted hiKb.inil and father.
Hcsolveil. That the council extends to the
bereaved family of John Groves Us pro
found sympathy and heartfelt condolence
In their Irreparable loss. In the public man
ifestation of sorrow at his death they have
the consolatory assurance of the great cs-
tcpin In which ho was held.
ItPBolvcil. That these resolutions bo spread
tijon the Journal of thl * council , and an
cnsrossnd copy of them lie transmitted by
the city clerk to the family of the deceased.
ATTACK ON THE JAIL CONTIIACT.
Ono of the most Important resolutions of
the sesslcj was Introduced by Christie. It
declared the city Jail contract , recently made
with Irving Allison , null and void , and di
rected the city attorney to notify Mr. Alli
son not to proceed under his contract. The
resolution was referred to the Judiciary com
mittee.
The resolutions adopted by the Commer
cial club , demanding the repair of the Elev
enth street viaduct , were referred to the
committee on viaducts and railways , and the
city attorney.

( Copyright , 1S97 , liy the Atithur. )
Of the four outer planets there Is one
which let specially accessible to our oltserva-
Mora. Jupiter Is greater tl-an cither Sntiirn ,
Ur.Mius or Neptune , nnd therefore on that
account nlono It would bo obviously easier
to olwcrve Jupiter limn nny of tie ! other
three , even If they hnil nil been nt equal
distances from us. Jupiter U Indeed so vast
that If the other planets of our system had
all been rolled together Into one , their
united volume would not be so great as Is
tint of Jupiter. Hut Jupiter also happens
to bo much nearer to the earth than arc any
of the other great planets. It therefore
follows for a double rcr.eon that this vast
globe offers to the terrestrial astronomer
a surpassingly Interesting object whoso details -
tails ho cm examine under exceptional ad
vantages.
We may first put down some numerical
facts with regird to the dimensions of thit
splendid globe and the track In which It
moves. Like all the other planets , Jupiter
of uolirai ) revolves In an elliptic path around
HID central luminary. The average distance
of tlm great planet from the sun Is 482,000-
000 inllcn. The course whluil ho follows
Is therefore rather more than flvo times
as great In diameter as Is the path pursued
by the earth. The elliptic track of Jupiter ,
however , departs appreciably from the cir
cular form Inasmuch as we sometimes Iliul
the distance of the planet from the sun to
bo r.fl great us li.-iri nnd sometimes as llttlo
as 4.'J. , If In each cr.sc wo take the average
iltatanco from the earth to the sun as the
unit.
unit.Tho
The most favorable circumstances for ob
serving the planet will be found when the
earth Iko directly between the sun and Jupi
ter whllo at the same tlmo the earth Is at
Its grontwt feasible distance and Jupiter
at lt.i least possible distance from the nun.
Dut even on the rare occasions when these
conditions nro fulfilled Junlter must still be
nearly four tlmro as far from the earth
as the earth Is from the sun.
JUI'ITKH A SLOW PLANET.
It Is a rule In the celestlil movements
that the more distant Is the track of n
planet from the sun the slower Is the pace
at which the orb moves forward on Its
mighty Journey. The earth has to hurry
on at the rate of eighteen miles a second
In order to accomplish Its Journey round
the sun within the allotted year. Hut
Jupiter , though It has a much longer cir
cuit to accomplish Is murh more leisurely
In Its procedure. The great planet , in fact ,
moves only eight miles in each second.
This no doubt seems a very high speed
when measured by our ordinary standards ,
of velocity , such ns those possessed by express -
press trains or rlilo bullets. There Is , however -
over , another way of Judging of the speed
of a planet which IB perhaps more appro
priate to the case than any compailson with
the movements of relatively small objects
like railway trains or rlflo bullets. Let us
think of the time that Jupiter would require
to move through the length of his own
diameter. The equatorial diameter of the
planet Is S7f > QO miles , being about olevcu
tlinrs that of the earth. As Jupiter moves
eight miles per second , or about 4SO miles ,
a minute , It Is easy to see that the planet
requires a period of not less than three
liours to move through a distance equal to
Its own diameter. Looked nt m this way
the speed of Jupiter seems Blow enough.
\Vo should not consider a missile to ho mov
ing quickly which required three hours to
advance through a distance equal to Us own
length.
Ono of llui moat remstkable features con
nected with the great planet Is the abnor
mally high speed at which he rotates around
Ills axis. Notwithstanding the hugo bulk of
Jupiter vvo find that ho requlns much less
tlmo to accomplish a revolution than docs
the earth. Tor while our globe takes about
twenty-four hours to complete eacii turn
wo BCO that Jupiter goes round In less than
half the name tlmo. Indeed the period of
rotation of the great planet la not more than
nlno hours fifty-five and one-half mlnutra.
With this rapid spin nbout his axis another
remarkable feature of the planet Is con-
icctcd. It Is obvious to anyone who looks
it Jupl'.er thrcugh a good telescope that the
'orm of the planet Is not circular. The great
orb is bulged out at the equator and it Is
flattened at the poles. The figure of the
earth , If will be remembered , manifests a
'caturo of the same kind. Hut the depart
ure from the circular outline Is much more
> ronounccd In the great planet than
n our own earth. This certainly
depends upoi- the high opecd at which Jupi
ter rovolvca. The planet not being made of
solid materials , but rather of substances
vhlch for the present we may speak of as
nllant. gradually yields to the centrifugal
action connected with Its rapid rotation.
The equatorial regions are consequently
> ulgcd out and thus the characteristic form
of Jupiter finds Its explanation.
The most noteworthy feature of Jupiter
as well aa of each of the other exterior
planets is the apparently gaseous character
vhlch they exhibit. In this respect they arc
sharply contrasted with the robust globes
of which our earth Is the type. This point
s so fundamental that unless It be under
stood the actual appearance of the creat
ilanet will bo hardly Intelligible.
JCIMTBR'S WKIQHT.
Among the neat remarkable achievements
of astronomers an Important place imi.U be
assigned to their discovery of the weights
of the planots. At first It might seem a prob-
cm of almost ineupnrable difficulty to asrer-
aln the tons or rather the myriads of tons
of matter In a globu situated at such a ills-
anco from the earth as the planet Jupiter.
nut the fact Is that such a problem can be
olvcd with all needful accuracy. We now
enow the ma&i of the planet Jupiter ccr-
ainly to within the hundredth part , and
irobably to within the thousandth of Its
otal amount. It seems useless for our pur-
> esc to express this weight In billions of tons ;
t will HUfllco If wo compare the weight of
Jupiter wish thu weight of the earth. The
csult Is that wo nnd Jupiter weighs as
much as 310 bodleu would do If each of them
lad the name mass as the earth.
Hut , though , no doubt , thla Illustrates In
an Impressive manner the great mass of the
ilggest planet of our system , yet from other
joints of view It seems a matter of tnirprlEO
hat the mass of Jupiter bhould not have
urncd out to bo oven greater than la thus
ndlcated. For knowing the average dlume-
cr of Jupiter as well as that of the earth
t can bo shown by a little calculation that
o far as bulk Is concerned not less than
,230 globes , each us largo as the earth ,
hould bo rolled toscther Into ono to form
a single glebe aa big as Jupiter. Here , then ,
vo find a remarkable contrast between the
great planet and our earth. If the two globes
: ad been compelled In the eamo manner
nnd of like materials , then as Jupiter was
,230 times as largo as our earth , It would
io necessary that It should have been also
,230 times as heavy. It would bo obvious , for
zmtance , that of two globes of cast Iron
ono was 1,230 times as largo as another
hen the weights of the two globe * would
Iso bo In the eaino proportion. Dut what
vo actually find Is that though Jupiter Is
,230 times as big as the earth , yet ho Is
nly 310 times as heavy. It la thus plain
hat tbo great planet possesses only about a
uartor of the weight that It would huvo
> eon entitled to If It 'had ' been made of ma-
erlald of the wamo kind and In the name
iliyslcal condition aa the materials of which
ho earth Is made. This la an Instructive
csult , inasmuch on It shown us plainly that
Jupiter must bo a gloljo of a totally
Iffercnt nature from this earth on which
vo dwell ,
The Important fact to which our attention
s thus directed may also bo emphasized In
: io following manner. It can bo shown that
lie earth Is about flvo and ono-half times
a heavy aa a glebe of water would bo which
wan the eamo slzo as the earth. Thla ro-
ult la qulto what might have been expected
rom the heavy character of the rocho and
10 metala out of which thla glebe has been
milt , Dut whun wo mnlto a olmllar calculu-
Ion with regard 'to Jupiter wo arriveat a
cry different remit. Tbo great planet Is , no
oubt , heavier than an equally largo globu
( water , but It la not BO heavy as ono and
a half of Mich globes. This fact nt once
shows that the matorlalo of Jupiter cannot
bo at present In the same phjslcal etnto
as are the materials of the raith. The very
lightest of terrestrhl rocks If formed Into
n globe as big as Jupiter , .vould ecrtnlnly
bo far heavier than the great planet Is
actually found to be.Vo arc therefore ,
forced to the conclusion that Jupiter Is In
some way or other n very different body
from our earth.
JUPITBU'S COMPOSITION.
At ( list It might hcHtlppcAcd that the great
planet was built out of fiomr materials not
known to us on this earth , nnn whoso density
was much below that of the actual elements
out of which our earth has been formed.
Thcro was no doubt a time when such n
proposition. If seriously made could not have
been easily refuted. Hut In thcoo latter
cliyji It Is not passible to contend that any
member of thi > planetary system could bo
composed of materials essentially different
from these of which the earth Is made. It
hfs been the triumph of modern science to
have demonstrated by the help of the spec
troscope that the elemental } * substances of
which the Rim ami even the stars are con-
ctltutcd are essentially the oamo as
the substances of whlrh our earth
Is composed. No doubt the method of analy
sis which announces this Important result
for the aim and for stars , does not npply
exactly In the same manner to the planets.
It must bo admitted that \\o cannot as
sure ourselves by direct observation that
the planetary elements nro altogether the
same as thrao on the earth. To a certain ex
tent , however , the method Is available even
for the planets , ami It shows , for Instance ,
that watery vapor at least Is assuredly pres
ent In the clouds surrounding Jupiter. The
nigumcnt la. however , sulllclcntly conclusive
for whenever we have the opportunity of
testing the chemical nature of bodies elsewhere
whereIn the unlvrrso. wo Invariably find
them to bo constituted from the pamo sub
stances that wo know on the earth. It fol
lows that analogy forbids us to suppcao that
thcro can be. to any extent , elements In
Jupiter differing essentially from those of
which the ear'h Is formed.
Wo may therefore take It for granted that
If chemists coulii obtain specimens of Jupi
ter and take them Into their Inborntovles for
examination , they would find these ero'lmorn
o'acntlally competed of those very nnmo ele
ments with which they arc nlrradv familiar
In terrestrial chemistry. Thin being admit
ted wo are now very close to the explanation
of the remarkable disparity between the buiv
of the giant planet and Its weight.
JUPITER'S INTERNAL HEAT.
Thcro cannot bo the least doubt that Jupi
ter Is very much hotter than Iho earth. It
must l > o undeistood that In this statement I
am not referring to the heat derived from
the sun. In co for as that goes
Jupiter receives much less heat than
the earth. so that If wo were
only considering sun heat wo should
find that Jupiter was miioh colder than Iho
earth. It can. Indeed , be ahown that the
share of sunbeams which arrive at such a
distance as that at which Jupiter Is placed
Is only about the twenty-fifth part of the
share of sunbeams which wo enjoy. The
heat of Jupiter to which I now refer Is of
quite a different kind. It Is what Is known
as Internal heat.
We believe that Iho Interior of the earth
is very hot. hotter Indeed than molten Iron ,
though the temperature of the surface of nur
globe is now but llttlo Influenced by the
Internal heat. On the other hand the sun Is
not only extremely hot in the Interior , but
the outer regions of the great luminary nro
obviously In a state of fleice Incandescence.
Let us Imagine the condition of n globe some
what Intermediate In condition between the
earth and the sun. Let un suppose It hot
enough to transform any water that might bo
present Into stcnm , though not hot enough to
glow with any vlslblo light us a stinllke body.
In this way wo might produce a nlobo which
would apparently potrtew the same physical
character as Jupiter. In such a body the
quantity of matter In the vaporous form
would swell the hulk of the glebe In. compari
son with that of n colder globe which might
contain quite as largo an amount of actual
material. In this consldciatlon wo can no
doubt find the reason why Jupiter , though
only 310 times as heavy as the earth. Is cer
tainly 1,230 tlmca as big. Jupiter has cer
t.ilnly very much more Internal heat than our
globo. The outer parts of the great planet
consist of laycm of dense vapor , thousands
of miles In thickness , which have Increased
the bulk of Jupiter enormously without ad
ding to Its weight In anything like the eamo
proportion.
Those considerations will explain the pecu
liar sspects which Jupiter presents to the
observer. It Is obvious that In the great
planet the astronomer flndi before him an
object of a widely different character from the
earth on which ho otnnds. or from such
bodies us the moon and the planet Mars.
The telescope shows the features on these ob
jects to be of a permanent character. The
craters and mountains on the moon are evi
dently solid and tlmo reveals little or no
change In them. I' . Is jicrhrra not
qulto so true to say that the fea
tures of Mara arc permanent. Hut
the fact that charts of .Mars have been pre
pared and that the lending objects thereon
can always bo recognized shows us that
this planet Is to be regarded In many es
sential respects as n solid body like our
earth. A mop of Jupiter depicts , however ,
a very different sct-ne. With the exception
to bo presently noted wo do not -find on
the great planet any permanent feature.
Marks of various Linda thcro are no doubt.
Hut most of these have ; but 111113 moro
permanence than In possessed by the clouds
on our own sky. The marks by which Jupi
ter's surface Is diversified are but our
views of the clouds which so thickly sur
round him. No doubt an observer In the
depths of space who was endeavoring to
survey our earth would nnd at all tlmea
that a large part of the surface of our glebe
was effectually hidden from his scinllny
by clouds. Hut we must suppose that with
duo patience ho would bo able to scl/o n
moment when each tract that ho desired
to Inspect wes free from cloud so that by
careful watching ho would doubtless suc
ceed In the lapse of tlmo In obtaining some
fair notion of the geographical conditions
of our globe. Hut the clouds of Jupiter
are no much more dcnso than the clouds
which encompass our earth that wo are
never nblo to obtain nny view of what
Jupiter below Us clouds may be llko.
