Mvel Olert.r of the "Tit Col

v auelUaa-
The pen U nilghti.-r than the swt.id, and
also to the army man of a score of year,
service in the outpost of ofllees valiantly
charging rollu.p desks, the upholstered
chair has its advantages over the nrmy
saddle.
Twenty arnty officers at Fort Snelllng
know thte-and know It better now than
they did St 9 m.. October 15; JmoW It
well enoujh to be content to war here
after upon documents and struggle with
ted tape from the revolving rhair.
Tha standing army of the Vnlted Btates
U larger now than It was a decade ago
or perhaps it merely looks that way be
cause It ston.ls more The elory of the
why and wherefore of all this is one which
challenges the g niua of a second Longfel
low. Beside It the ride of Paul Revere
pahs Into Insignificance, and rlghth soi
Tho twenty gallant Jrders of our bos
in blue. Inured by yeara of service t,6 tbe
most desperata dictation of official reports,
skilled In the intrlcwles of threading the
mazes ot red tape, dauntlessly mounted
prancing steeds and galloped away, natur
ally stopping occasionally to walk ilielr
hoises anl take It easy. Many of them
had not been on a horse for years some a
score of years.
Boosted by their adjutants and several
nlhatrs. thy were hoisted on the chargers
I'.ke the armor encajttd knights of old and
wav through the country for six
teen miles and a half.
The reckless, devil-may-care daring of
the thing becomes apparent when It Is
known that It war titedlesa for them to go
mora than fifteen miles. But these officers
of the gvld epaulettes and .typewriters
eared not for the extra, mile and" a half
and besides It they were going to be stiff
they might as mell be good end stiff. Jt
wouldn't have looked dignified to dismount
from their horses and wall in the last mile
and a half anyway, and K la Just possible
that the walking around would have been
Just m bud as the riding.
The ride ' was not to rescue a be
leaguered city nor yet to make a wild
swoop upon the enemy, but Just an out
come of the strenuoslty of President Roose
velt, who could not bear to see the longing
of the officers confined by their duty to
offices for years' for tha wild free life on
the back of the flying steeds. So President
Rooevelt ordered a fifteen-mile ride once
each year for all officers above tha grade
of capte.ui and below that of brigadier
general. Five miles at a walk, Ave at a
trot nd five at a gallop was the prescrip
tion. ,
The last few weeka have been busy ones
of practice, for some of tha officers. At
that one officer fell from his horse as ha at
tempted to dismount after the ride. Other
officers said ho caught his stirrup and
would not tell his name. He walked
ailffiy when ho got up. The riders took the
route along the river road from Fort Snell
lug to BkxMiilngtou, north to the pike, east
to Bloomtleld, and return to the fort. The
ride started at 9 a. in. and took two hours
and fourteen minutes Minneapolis Jour

WORLD'S GREATEST TELESCOPE
II n are Observatory Iastrament with
M'hlch the Solar System Will
Be Stadted.
One by one this country la equipping
(tself with a group of the greatest obser
vatories in the world. On the summit of
Mount Wilson, a peak in oonuthern Call
fornla, is a solar observatory which will
outclass any other designed for that put
pose. It is under tho patronage of the Car
negie institute at Washington. The in
tention is to spend at least tmwO upon
its equipment. Mount Wilson was selected
as the arte because tha atmosphere .there
was rler and tranquil for a greater num
ber of days than at any other place tested.
Ono of the niot Important subjects of re
search will be the apparent decrease in
heat radiation from tho sun in Uie last
few years. Another problem will be that
undertaken by Prof. E. H Barnard, who
Is not satisfied with the theory of he
nebular origin, and who will try to de
termine bosvjnuch faith can be put in the
nebular iyptbesls.
Tho popular notion Is that the astrono
mer points his telescope directly at the
sun and Bras bis vision poWt blank across
the chasm pf millions of miles. Instead,
tho errant sun rays are lasaooed by g
eoelestat, a great circular mirror driven
by clockwork in auch a planner that It
th.cws its tight lulo another mirror above,
and tt.s In turn sends tha long, concen
Wakrd beam fur Into Mm interior of the
telescope house.
Tha two mirrors move lu automatic ad
Jrilf """' to each other, ao that the solar
beams may bo shot into the building, np
matter in what portion of the sky the sun

THE REPORTER SAW THINGS
Sensational Discovery of New Comet
Which Proved to Bo a
Searchlight.
"The Lighthouse for the Plains'' recently
Installed op the top of Pike's Peak caused a
mild sensation last week in Pueblo, Colo.,
a city forty-five mile away. Some rest
dents had been wondering whether a new
and unknown comet had made its appear
ance in the northwest and was daxzllng
their eyes by Its unusual brightness, but
when seversl would-be-famous astronomers
began to make Investigations as to the un
known light they found that their so-called
comet was nothing more than the search
light on the summit of Pike's Peak. The
first time the unknown "comet" was no
ticed was when the city editor of the
Pueblo Star-Journal, who was sitting on
his front porch, saw a new and brilliant
light appear in the heavens to the north
west and after twinkling a minute or ao
disappear and then reappear and continue
the game of light and dark for soma time.
The only solution he could oome to was
that it was a new and unheralded comet
that had burst Into view. Bo much Inter
ested was he that he called up Uis Colo
rado college observatory by telephone to
Inquire If Colorado Springs people had
seen the new tramp of the skies.
