CHICAGO, Nov. 20.—Professor G. W. Ritchey of Yerkes Observatory is reported to have made a discovery in astronomy which will make himself and the observa- tory famous. The discovery, in brief, is the proof of what is known as the nebular theory, and Professor Ritchey appears 1o have reduced to a matter of certainty what has heretofore been merely a brii- Lant hypothesis.

Adams and Mrs. Ten- | nant Harrington. The table, an immense round one, was magnificently decorated, green being the only color used. Delicate maiden hair and asparagus ferns, the vel- vety leaves of the cactus and the tall and graceful papyrus were used principally in the exquisite and artistic decorations. Green candles in silver candelabra and with green shades were used for illumina- tion. Luncheon was served at 2 o'clock.

The wonderful doll table, necktie talle and apron table will be stocked with a most tempting collection of neckwear, aprons and sawdust and bisque ladies. For the past few days fairy fingers have been fashioning the ties and the aprons and dressing the dolls. The result of all this labor is one of marvelous and en- trancing beauty.

President Roosevelt has finally found a suitable span of horfes with jo tails. ‘The two animals, thoroughbred Hamhle- tonians, were bought in Baltimore. The horses are perfectly matched bays. They will be known as “Admiral” and “Gen- eral.” The horses were bought from Moses Moses, a Baltimore dealer, the same who sold to President McKinley his two spirited bays. These animals are now front, although he had been previously a member of the crew of the Queen. On the strength of the certificate Johnson ob- tained admission to the United States Ma-~ rine Hospital and received free medical Round a table gorgeous with yellow | trentment for about three months. Nielsen’'s counsel, Bert Schlesinger, ad- mitted the facts, but raised the legal point that the issuance of the certificate was roi a violation of any Federal statute. Commissioner Heacock sustained the point and discharged the defendant —_— being used daily by Mrs. McKinley in her drives about Canton, Ohio. The horses Jjust bought by President Roosevelt both were sired by Abdallah Belmont and were bred in Michigan for trotting uses. The negotiations for their purchase were con- ducted by Arthur G. Hurley of North Adams, Mass., foreman of the White House stables. Mr. Hurley went to Bal- timore, made a study of the animals, re- turned to Washington and gave a minute description to President Roosevelt. Th2 President then sent Dr. E. Brown, veterinary surgeon of tine quartermaster's department of the army, to Baltimore. He pronounced the horses thoroughly sound and the President at once com- pleted the purchase. The price is said to have been about 3200(2 . President Roosevelt's action in adorning the hats of 'his coachman and footmen with cocleades has created a good deal of discussion in society. The origin ot the cockade dates back to the days when soldiers used to ‘‘cock’ their hats, that is to say, hold the brim in position by means of a bunch or rosette of ribbons, usually consisting of the regimental colors. Long after the three-cornered hat was aban- doned in the army it was retained as a headgear for footmen and coachmen, and indeed still to this day forms part and parcel of the state liveries of great nobles, high official dignitaries and of royal per- sonages in Europe, the n?les using a cockade of the colors of their escutcheons, while Embassadors, as a rule, make use of the colors of their country for the h silk hats came into purpose. ‘When ordinary hl? use for the wear of liveried servants the cockade was transferred to the hat, and worn no longer on the brim, but fastened to the crown on the right side, and it is this form of cockade that has been adopt- ed by President Roosevelt for his men in livery. Strictly speaking, the cockade should be used by none but the servants of those holding commissions in the army and navy, and it is to be presumed that the President has caused his domestics to adopt it in his capacity as commander-in- chief of the naval and military forces of the United States. In England, however, the cockade is worn not only by the ser- vants of officers of the army and navy, but likewise by the domestics of all those holding any kind of high office under the crown, and on the Continent much the same rule prevails, there being, indeed, laws almost obsolete and rarely enforced against the unwarranted use of the cock- ade. The cockade forms part and parcel of the liveries of all Old World rulers, those of the President of the French republic being red, white and blue, that is to say, the colors of the republic.

Reichstag May Consider Ref- erences to the Old Soldiers. ——— BERLIN, Nov. 19.—The anti-Chamber- lain movement in Germany is spreading. In spite of the remonstrance issued offi- cially by the Deutscher Kriegerbund, the Soclety of Veterans of Berlin to-day held a large and enthusiastic meeting, in which the utterances of Chamberlain at Edinburgh were heartily denounced. Other soldiers’ anti-Chamberiain meet- ings are to be held at Cologne, Mul- heim, Brunswick and Bonnvetie, and stu- dents’ meetings of like character will be held at Bonn, Wurzburg, Leipsic, Halle and Munich, while popular meetings are announced in Bochum, Brunswick and other places. Referring to these matters, the Post, speaking semi-officially, says the Govern- ment sees no reason to identify itself with the vehement utterances at irre- sponsible meetings, or to take action against Chamberlain’s accusations con- cerning the German soldiers, since the latter’'s words at Edinburgh were noth- ing more than the private utterance of the British statesman. But if the matter is broached in the Reichstag affairs will assume an entirely different course. In this event the Government would find occasion to express itself befittingly. Policeman’s Murderer Captured. JUNCTION CITY, Kans., Nov. 19.—W. D.

L e o e e ] PLOT TO BREAK JHIL MISCARRIES Murderer Suesser Fails in Attempt to Free Himself. Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, Nov. 19.—A plot to break jall, with George Suesser, the murderer of Sheriff Farley of Monterey County, at its head, has been unearthed by Jailer Dreischmeyer in the Cotnty Jafl. Im- plicated with Suesser, who is under sen- tence of death, were Frank Johnson, an ex-convict, who was taken to San Quentin on Monday to serve a burglary sentence; Jan John, a Chinese convicted of perjury, and a prisoner named Curtis. ; Owing to the overcrowded condition of the jail the men were removed from the little to the big tank. They occupied cells adjoining one another. Some time ago a man named Bowman was committed to the jail. He was a cripple and on the side of his shoe was a steel rod to support the ankle. Suesser and the others took this shoe from Bowman and out of the piece of steel made a saw. The cripple was threatened with vengeance if he reported the loss of his shoe. This steel was con~ verted into an excellent saw and blankets were torn and woven into a rope. In the rear of the cells occupied by the men were small windows covered by bars, and above the bars another grating. It was proposed to cut these with the saw. ‘The men could then climb to the ceiling, and after cutting the bars over the sky- light reach the top of the building. Then they could lower themselves to the ground with the blanket rope. Before the plans could be carried out Johnson was taken to San Quentin and a search of the cells revealed the hidden articles by means of which the men hoped to escape. Syesser and the two others are now doing a stunt in solitary confinement. COAL WAGON WRECKED BY POST-STREET CAR Brakes Did Not Hold and Valuable Horse Will Die of Its Injuries. A coal wagon belonging to C. A. War- ren was wrecked on Fost street, just be- low Taylor, at noon yesterday by an electric car of the Pcst street line, and a valuable horse was sc badly injured that it will probably die. The driver, Walter Stanton, was thrown violently from the wagon and severely bruised. All of the four horses of the tear: were more or less bruised or battered and one side of the car was wrecked, but, fortunately, none of the passengers wers hurt. The car was coming at a high rate of speed down the hill and the wagon was going in the same dliection. As the car approached the motorman applied the brakes, but the rails were wet and the brakes would not hold. The car plunged ahead with its momertum scarcely dimin- ished and struck the wagon just after crossing Taylor street. The wagon was lifted into the air and it and the horses were carried more tian a hundred feet down the street before the car stopped. One of the horses, a fine bay animal val- ued at $175, was got (rce from the wreck- age of car and wagon only after much effort, and then almost bled to death from cuts in the groin beforc it could be taken to a veterinary surgeon on Howard street. Two women were on the front outside seats of the car, but succeeded in jump- ing off without being injured. The pas- sengers inside were showered with coal and broken glass, but no one was hurt, and though one side of the front of the car was ground into kindling wood the motor man escaped injury. ——— Huntsman Accidentally Killed.
