] BECISNING OF BASE BALL| The Uoming Week to Inangurate the Scazon in the Oapital City. OMAHA AND LINCOLN CONTESTS Poor Management by the Mayer In the Running of the Police Force—The Publio Sale of Lots, |FIOM TIE BET’S LISCOLN RUREAT.| The present week will chronicle the oening league games of ball in Lincoln, commencing with Wednesday, when the Omaha club crosses bats with the Lin- colns, These opening games will give Lineoln people an opportunity of show- ing just how much they appreciate the ctiorts to give them healthy out-door nmuscments, and if a generous patron- age is shown in the commencement of the season the management of the home c!ub will feel greatly encouraged. The Lincoln base ball association have ele- gant grounds for the summer. The street car companies will use their best efforts to accommodate all patrons, and for a pleasant carringe drive the ball grounds are just the right distance from the city. Whether the home ciub wins every game or not the sport will be ex- cellent, and it is generally understood that when Lincoln and Omaha meet at any time during the season that the meeting will be for blood, It is expected that a large number of Omahu parties will be down to witness these opening league games, and it will all contribute to make it especially interesting, Some new players will also appear in the Lin- coln nine for the first time. POOR MANAGEMENT, Nothing whatever is lacking to show the very poor management the magyor is exereising in running the police force without giving the chicf any power in the premses and without giving the council oommittee on police an opportunity to exercise their influence in the matter. Ckief Cooper could build up an efficient force if he had the opportunity, and he has had experience in such matters, but when the mayor holds to himself all the owers of appointment and removal ‘hief Cooper can neither do himself or the publie justice. Mr. Cooper recog- nizes the fact that some of the mayor’s selections as policemen are totally untit for such service, and Councilman Burks, chairman of the council committee on lice, recognives the snme stato of facts, &‘n thus far their efforts to rigln mat- ters have been unavailing. The night volice force '8 officered by & man who is a4 tolally unfit in every varticular for efficient service as could be founda, and who ought to have been removed months 0 on general principles. The spectacle of a policeman arresting a dflmty sher- it in the course of uty was a fair examplo of some of the day force, and to cap the chmax, it is stated that the mayor has given em- loyment to Detective Pound, the mana- ger of the state hou isode, who is to act as dotective for thisclegant force and point out the violations. All theso ridi- culous and farcial experiments are daily bringing the force into disrepute among the better class of citizens and the crooks and toughs continue to flock to the city for a haryest time. Meanwhile, Chief Cooper will be expected, by those unac- quainted with the facts, to do eflicient work with the motley crowd of wholly unexperienced men that the mayor holds under him. THE FIRST PUBLIC SALE. The first auction sale of Lincoln real estate took place Saturday under the management of Cludeus & Honnell. This is a method of selling that has met with success ofton in older cities and its in- troductory in Lincoln was quite success- ful. A band in the circus wagon parad- ed the streets and led the way to the different places where lots were sold, followed _vuhuut:!flt)[lxeonluin carriages, The sale as & whole must have been satisfactory to the projectors, some of the lots selling at & handsome figure and others netted the purchasers special bargains. A few of the sales will give Lincoln people an 1dea of the sales as a whote. The lot on the southwest corner of P and Ninth streets, 25x142, sold to O. W. Webster for $10,600, a handsome prioe for u handsome piece of property. The Winger lot, on the southwest corner of Ninth and 8 strects,” was sold to the same purchaser at $16,000, but it is understood that Captain Winger gave 8400 on the spot for the release of the sale. Two lots north of the tracks that were on bottom ground sold for from B1,200 to $1,300 each, and the next sale was alot on O street, between Nincteenth and Twentieth, a fifty foot lot, and it was considered a great bargain at $6,825, the figures for which it sold to Mrs, Skin- ner. A lot on L and Nincteenth, with a ood two story frame house, brought 5,300, J. L. Ryan bein, urvhaser, and two vacant lots on and E(uoldw . E. Loomis for $6,300. Two otson N and Nineteenth fzmngm an pxcellent price, selling for $7,300, and a loton F near Twentieth sold for the neat sum of whilo the residenoce gm rty of E. P. Roggen was purchased )y J. C. McBride for $0,100. ABOUT THE CITY. ‘The needs of a city hospital have been made manifest in the past two days in the case of » colored girl who was driven oven! " from the house in which she was being cared for, and in the case ot the man who had his skull cracked with a hatohet and who was cf for in the counoil chawber. Bomething ought to be done and that speedily for the sick and desti- tute in Lincoln. Postmaster Watkins suggests a good olicy for the city to ulloxt and that is ror itannually (0 set aside a sum of money to expend on the park in the goverument square. The national gov- ernment will not appropriate money for decorative purposes, and uf the park here is made what it should be the city will have to assist. Personal contributions havo been mude heretofore for the pur- pose, but for permanent work the city should lend yearly assistance, County Atmmoi.ll. D.

Some results of the investigation have lately been published. = According to the ¢ statistics of 1851 relaiing to sixteen gov- ernments of the south and west of the empire there were 2,930,039 Jows of both sexes in a total population of 35,500, 000— t. o atthe rate of 114 per cent. The Hebrew element 18 most largely repre- sented in Lithuama and White Russia, and least in Little Russin. In Mink it is as one in five, while in Kharkov the pro- vortion 18 one to 350, In general the Jews profer to settle in villages, or in towns which are not seats of government, A striklng example of their prepanderance is shown in the hamlets of the Troki district (Wilna) where they form 92 per eent of the popu- lation, Regarding their position s owners or ocenpiers of land in the above mentioned provinces, whioch contain 137,000,000 acres in all, it appears that they have purchased 1,800,000 from the nobles since 1861, and they hold 5,220,000 acres as tenant farmers. These lands they do not cultivate themselves, but let or sublet them; a8 the case may be, in small lots to tho peasants of neighboring villages. Their profits as middlemen have hitherto been very large. There are instances in Bessarabia, Volhynia and Kherson of extensive districts hired by them at from one-third to two roubles an acre, and relet 1n small lots at four to ive roubles per ac In Bessarabia they h obtained long leases of agricultural land belonging to gome forcign convents which t sublet 1n some cases for vy bles per faltcha, o loeal measure equal to nearly three acres. In Podolia all the large estates situated in the basing of the aflluents of the Dniesaer are heid by Jews at long terms. The system of agriculture pursued under these new masters is found to be no beiter than that of other classes of land specalators. The soil is exhausted after five or ten vy’ cropping, and it is not to be wondered at that within the last decade there has been a fallof thirty per cent. in the value of ianded property.

LICK'S Bringing the Moon Within Sixty-Six Miles of the Earth—Mount Hamil ton's Hage Dome-Great Lenses, JAMES GENEROSITY. During the coming summer there will be erected upon the summit of Mount Hamilton, in California, in the huge dome already prepared for it, the great- est refracting telescope the world ever saw or is ever likely to see unless the art of the glasssmaker and of the lens- grinder should take some marvelous leap in advance. Itis quite natural that uni- versal curiosity snould be awakened as to the probable extent of the yet untried vowers of this monster telescope. The eves not only of all astronomers, but of the intelligent reading public all over the world, are turning impatiently to- ward Mount Hamilton, and one of the first questions that an astronomer hears in a miscellaneous assemblage is: “What do you think the Lick telescope will show ' If Mr. James Lick, who charged his executors to construct the most pow- erful telescope in existence, conld hear the buzz of expectation that the near ac- complishment of his behest has awakened he would probably already feel repaid for ng generosity. HE OBSERVATORY. ¢, then, of this widespread and faudable curiosity about an mstrument that represents the crowning achieve- ment of the telescope-maker, itis well worth while to inquire what the Lick telescope will really be able to do, In answering that question there are three principal points to be keptin view. First, the sizo of the telescope; second, the quality of its workmanship, and third, its location. In all of these respects the Lack telescopestands in the front rank The true measure of the sizo of a telo- scope--reflecting telescopes like Lord Ropge’ ¢ here lett out of consideration, although a similar rule would :n)r}y to them—is the diameter of the object- glass, that 18, the large glass in the end of the tube furthest from the eye. The object glass of the Lick telescope is three feet ncross, ten inches broader than the Brobdinagian eye of the great telescope of the Naval Observatory at Washington. But thoso ten inches represent a far mightier increase of' power than the un- initiated would suppose. They enable the Lick glass to grasp twice as much light as the Washington glass can do. More accurately speaking, while tho Washington telescope collects 16,900 times a5 many rays of light as the un- aided human eye can do, the Lick tele- scope will collect 82,400 times as many rays as the eye isablo to grasp, The great te ope recently set up at Pul- kowa, Russia, has an object-glass thirty irches in diameter, giving it a light- grasping about two-thirds as great as that of the Lick telescope. As to workmanship, the same ma: hand that shaped the lenses of the W ington and Pulkowa instruments o the object-& for the Lick telescope, > | veteran Alvin Clark, who y' acknowledged to be the gr the Lick glass will compare most ably with the previous masterpieces of which it was subjected at Cambridge be- fore it was sent to California. MOUNTED FOR USE. 1 Finally as to the location. In this re- spect the Lick ope will have an ad- ntage of those who are not amiliar with the workings of astronom- 1cal instruments can form buta faint idea. The astronomer’s worst enemy is the atmosphere. calmest weather itis asource of annoyance and a stumbling-block to him. One can form some notion of what the trouble is by looking over a heated reach of sands in the summer or over the top of a flat stove in which a lively fire is burning and noticing the waving and trembling mo- tion of the heated air, which twists the rays of light traversing it into a con- fused blur. Similar motions and cur- rents prevailing in the atmosphere near- 1y all the time are magnified by the tele- scope until their effect is to_destroy that sharpness of vision which is needed in astronomical observations. There are two ways of getting rid—to some extent at least—of this annoyance. One way is to plant your telescope 1n_some part of the world where an equable climate gives unusual steadiness to the atmosphere. Another way is to climb up into a high mountain and set your telescope above the denser and more troublesome layers of air. Thirty years ago Piazzi Smyth, the astronomer royal for Scotland, made a famous experiment which demonstrated the effcctiveness of the last named _expe- dient. He went to the Canary Islands, and dragging a powerful telescope to the top of the lofty peak of Teneriffe, set it up there amid the pumice stone and lava bt:mks of that giant volcano. The astro- nomical world was delighted with the en- thusiastic deseription that he brought back of the clearness and distinctness of the tolescopic vision upon the moun- tain top. ot it was not easy to find a mountain on which an observatory could be built,and so astronomers, for the most part, continued to do the best they could al the bottom of the acrial ocean, only aspiring in their hearts to be inhabitants of the limpid upper air. Now the Lick telescope has all the ad- vantages that come from both s high elevation and an equable climate. The observatory stands on the summit of a mountain 4,200 feet above tha sea level. ‘The chmate of that region is delicious; to the astronomer exquisite. Mr. Burn- ham, the eagle-eyed discoverer of double stars, went there to test the seeing quali- ties of the Mount Hamilton air and’ was both charmed and astonished. New double stars fell into his catalogue like ripe apples in an autumn night. 8o we see that 1n every way the great telescope will possess an advantage over most of those now in_ existence, and in uui ulmuar of size is is, of course, unri- valed. Aext let us inquire what it will proba- bly show. When talking of the powers of telescopes, people naturally think first of the moon. It is the nearest of the heavenly bodies, and in some respects the most interesting, The first celestial ob- ject that Galileo turned his telescope upon was the moon, and the delight that he expressed at the sight of its plaing and mountains has been felt increasingly by all observers since his time. Every increase of the power of telescopes has brous.h.l to new details in those wonderful lunar landsca) There is & simple ratio between the magnifying powerof a telescope and the spparent distance of the object looked at, which renders it aauywnnl::l that zgr lnfl popualar and easily-under: 'm. » telescope nifies 100 diameters it will bring l}am:fiwl apparently 100 time o8 near a3 it really is. The mean dis the moon 15 about 240,000 miles telescope mafinifylng 100 diame ters it would, “therefore, lpreu to be bron‘m 400 mifes of the earth- Now the Lick telescope, under the most favorable conditions, -g bear a nfll. tyin, F, _vqrwoi 8,600 u:metem af WO ril e moon within an apparent distance yhtm six xmspll 5 seven miles. At such a Gistance it would be very dificult to detect any but the coarsest featvres of the landscape. Arti- ticial works, if any existed 'wfio le of great size to be seem: A structure ike the pyramid of Cheops would be arying ap under different illuminations. In faot, it is l? the shadows of ebjects upon 1t that we learn more of the moon’s surface than in any other way. Owing to the abeonce of any appreciable atmosphere shadows upon the noon are s black ns ink. A building like the Washington monument standing on the lunar surface would bo invisible to us when the sun shone per- pendicular upon it. Dut with the rising or setting sun it would cast a long spire of shadow that the Lick telescope might be able to show, A LUNAR VOLCANIC REGION. Of courae a city on the moon would be visible, an would probably be recogniz- able us such. Cuta picce of paper an inch long and a quarter of an inech broad and hold it six or seven inches from the It will oceupy nearly the exact angular diminsions that the city of New York would have if it stood wupon the moon and was viewed from the earth with a telescope magnifying 8,600 diam- eters. Then try to mark upon this bit of paper in their true relative proportions the streets and principal buildings of the city, and you will have a queer notion of I nount of detail that might be ex- ccted to be seen. But objects would not appear as clear as they would to the naked eye ata imilar real distance, owing to the loss of light in the telescope and the necessary imperfections of the image. And, while the [|-ov.'|'|’ mentioned could doubtless be used upon the Lick telescope, yet in prac- tice it hardly ever would be used, and better results could probably be attained with powers of 2,000 or 1,500, or in many cases of on 00, with which powers the apparent distance of the moon would be resp vely 120, 160 and 240 miles. But astronomers were long ago con- vinced that there are no cities upon the moon and no inhabitants to build them. Some, believing that the Creator would not have formed so complete a world y a little reflected light nk the must in the long-past < of lunar history who may have left some traces of their presence. However this may be, the diseovery of artificial works is not needed to make the moon interosting, Tossed and torn as it has been by the most territie voleanie torces, the face of our sateliite presents to us as strange a. world as the most grotesque imagination could picture. C and fifty miles across; completely ringed and ' shut_in by giant mountain peaks; strange shining moun- tains, whose mighty flanks fairly blaze when the sunshine strikes them, so that even the clear-eyed William Herschel thought he saw them actually vomiting fire; empty bottoms of long dried-up chasms a mile wide, 100 miles or more long and of frightful depth—with all these features to excite the wonder and even the admiration of the beholder, for the moon is very beautiful in the telescope, there is nmo danger that the lunar revelations of the great Lick glass will lack interest, even 1f they only serve to strengthen the evidence that our bril- Liant satellite is often all but the skeleton of a world. Y comes the planet Mars, which in- us in a very different way, for Mars is not improbably an inhabited world. The question of actual condi- tion as to habitablene: still under do- bate; und here the great Califorman tele- scope may be able to furnish decisive ey- idence one way or the other if properly d. We already know that Mars has wtmosphere, and we can hardly be wistaken in sayiug that it possesscs water, and that difierently colored re- gions we see upon it are lands and seas. Around its poles we perceive whito patches that wax and wane with the seasons. What can they be but snow ficlds? Ubscuring large portions of its surface at times, misty patches are visible, which are seen to slowly change their position, and some times to gradually melt away, What are these but clouds floating in the atmosphers of the planet? Within the past ten years curious streaks, called canals, have been seen at times upon Mars. They certainly are not canals in the ordinary meaning of that t what they are we do not know. ere is some evidence that their appear- ance and disappearance depend upon the changos of the seasons of Mars. Into the mysteries of the most interesting world—and the reader wiil at once per- ceive that it is full of the greatest inter- est—the Lick telescope should enable as- tronomers to penetrate much furtuer than they have yet been able to do. The planets Jupiter and Saturn have also assumed fresh interest of late, es- pecially the former, on account of the puzzling appearances that they have pre- sented. ’i‘he huge red spot on Jupiter, which was first seen in 1878, is still visi- ble, having in the past three or four years undergone very singular fluctuations of form and visibi It is not hkely, as has been suggested, that this strange spot is a portion of the red-hot surface of the great planet mude visible to us by the withdrawal of a concealing envelope of clouds; yet it can hardly be doubted that it has something to do with the planetary development of that distant world, which is now evidently passing through the earlier stages of what mi;:ht arance The BEMEDY That Never Fails to Cure Catarrh Granuiated Eyelids, Neuralgia, be called its pre-geological history., In dealing with suah phenomena as this the Lick telescope will possess an cnor- moue advantage, if its powers are prop- erly directed. With a magnifying powerof of 3,600 times, Jupiter, when near opposi tion, would appear as if oniy about one hundred aod thirty-three thousand mile away, or something more than half t distance of the moon, If Jupiter really were ouly as far away as that, it would seem to fill balf the beavens, It would have an apparent diameter of over seventy degrees, covering about twenty thousand times as large a spaco as the full moon does, Even with & power of 1,500 Jupiter would be brought within an apparent distance of about two hundred and six thousand miles, or only three times its own diam away. Our present telescope will not bear such a power sat isfactorily, but it ought to be available under the best conditions, on Mount Hamilton, for the study of the features of Jupiter's surface. The same remarks ap- ply to Saturn—the wondeaful world with rings suspended around it. With the great new telescope such views should se obtained of it as have never been ob- tained before. A mgantic photographic lens is to be applied to the Lick telescope, Herein the monster will probably be able to ao- complish enormous results. It has re- ccnll y been found practicable to photo- x:r:uvl)n stars and nebulie which the human cye cannot sce at all, oyen when aided by the most powerful telescopes. But the photographic plates make them visible, showing that the heavens are even more full of wonders than men had dreamed. What new marvels of this kind the Lick telescope will reveal in the awful depths of svace, where suns and worlds are strewn like sands upon the shore ean orly be guessed. [ . One of New Mexico's Burfed Towns, Socorro Bullion: A few days ago two prospectors, whilo wandoring over the foothills east of tho city, accidently stumbled on signs of previous habitation buried under heaps of sand which had been drifted by the winds of years. Hav- ing seleoted a point at which to make an excavation, they went to work with a will, and in a few hours had reached the floor of a small chamber 1n the form of a parallelogram., They found the re- mains of several human beings, several handsome vases carved with gecometrical figures in different colors, stone axes, hammers, picces of cloth apparently manufactured from the fibre of the yucca; several strings of beads, sea shells, arrow heads and an abundance of fragments of obsidian quartz, and an in- credible quantity of pieces’ of broken pottery, including several with a blue glazing. Only 1n one other instance have wo ever heard of this color and quality of ware having been discovered in- this ter- ritory, and that was at the ancient pueblo near the Santa Rita in this coun- try, and it_indicates that the Spaniards had lived in New Mexico bofore the ox- tinction of the race who inhabited this ruined and buried villag DRS. §. &D.
