SEVENTH .MEETING Or THE STAKCLUR
Increased Interest The Bull. HyadeH, Plei
ades, The Kam, The 'Whale, Fishes,
Hare, Deg Star, Nebular Hy Hy
eothesisWarren's Lec
ture, Etc.
The meeting of the Star club en Fiiday
evening at tbe rooms of the Yeung Men's
Christian association was very largely at
tended. The constellations given arc
found above and the list of individual stats
has nearly reached the hundred.
In the constellation Taurus, the Bull of
which only the head, neck and fore-shoulders
are shown in the charts we have two
small hut beautiful groups, the Pleiades
and Ilyadcs, both of which have been
well-known te successive generations for
thousands of years. They may readily be
fixed by a line extended in a northwesterly
direction fiem the three stars in the Belt of
Orien te Almaach in Andiemcda. This
line will pass first through the V-shaped
cluster in the head or the Bull, which the
Reman pect Virgil calls the " rainy Ily
adcs' The very bright star of the fust
magnitude in the cluster is Aldebaran, the
' Eye of the Bull." The remaining four
stars are small, but aid in making a clearly
defined figure. Eleven degrees fiem the
Ilyadcs, upon our line extending towards
thcneitliMCSt. we find the Pleiades.
This faint cluster with which Jeb and
David were familiar, ami which suggested
te Tennyson the happy fancy " fire-llies
tangled in a silver braid," is also known as
the ''Virgins of Spring," the ''Seven Sis
ters" and the " Seven Stars." The bright
est star of this group, of which but six
stars are visible and all of them small, is
named Alcj one, which is known also as
the " Light of the Pleiades." This star is
said te be twelve hundred times as large as
the Sun. When we remember that JJeO
glebes the size of our Earth might be
stiung about the equator eftheSunas a
girdle like monster beads upon a mam
moth cord wc are oppressed with his
cnoimeus magnitude of course without
comprehending it, save in a very slight de
gree by comparison. But think for a mo
ment of a Sun twelve hundred times larger
than even this ! Alcyone has been supposed
by some though it be no mero than the
bold guess of the enthusiastic astronomer
te be the central sun of our stellar sys
tem, that about which all the ether stars
(suns), with their attendant planets, ic ic
velve. By the mysterious influence of
gravity, it l caches out te our Sun, as te
ethcis, aciess the measureless depths of
space, seizes it with a giip of iron and
huils it ferwaid in its eibitwith unifeim
but inconceivable velocity.
Our Moen moves each day through some
thiitcen degrees of its monthly orbit
about the Sun, thus causing the stais te
pass the meiidian four minutes earlier
each evening. But se rast is this orbit
of the Sun about Alcyone that it
travel scs but one minute of its tremendous
ciicuit in a thousand years although the
distance it moves each year is estimated
at 154,000,000 miles. There being SCO
degrees in a ciicle and sixty minutes te
each degree, it will icadily be seen that
for the Sun te move through a single de
gree of its eibit it will require 60,000 yeais,
or meie than 21,000,000 years te complete
a single l evolution around the great cen
tral sun, the '"Light of the Pleiades. " .
If all this be tiue, is it likely that the
plan of the Creater se far as our system
is concerned contemplates but a single
revolution of this grand secondary orb
about its grander piimary? May it net
lather be laiily assumed tliat many such
i evolutions have already been made and
that many arc ye't te be made, - each oc
cupying its mere than 20,000,000 years of
time, as reckoned by man's arithmetic?
When wc think of the earth in this rela
tion, it grows elder, by far, in its astrono
my than even in its geology !
Our next constellation is Aiics, the
Ram, which is the liist of the twelve con
stellations of the Zodiac, the Bull being
the second. While the head of the Bull
is eastwards tewaids Orien, who is repre
sented en the charts as about te stiikc
him with an upraised club, the head of the
Ram is in the opposite direction tewaids
the West, though he is represented as
looking eastwartls, along the path of the
Sun. The leading stars may readily be
fixed by extending a line from Aldebaran
in the Hyades, te Alpheratz, in Andiom Andiem
cda, at the neithcast angle of the Great
Square of Pegasus. On this line, which
we divide into three parts, we have new
at the first point of division, the brilliant
planet Mars, and at the next point three
stars in the head of the Ram, the two
biightest of which are four degiccs apai t,
that te the north being Arictis and te the
south Shciatan. Seuth of Shcratan, at
the distance of ene and a half degrees, is a
fainter star named Mesartim. Arictis is
in the middle of the forehead and Shcratan
in a coil of one of the horns. The first
named star is ene from which Iongitude is
reckoned. These stars are new en the
meridian about 6 o'clock in the evening.
Seuth of the Ram will be found Cetus,
the whale, occupying some 30 degrees of
the heavens from cast te west, though it
is net a very conspicuous constellation.
The double star Diphda in the tail is
promptly fixed bv a line carried south waul
through Alpheratz and Algcnib, the cast
tern side of the Great Square of Pegasus.
It is the brightest star in this pait of the
heavens and may be readily distinguished.
The gieat planet Saturn is at present near
the line from Algcnib te Diphda. Jlenkar
in the head of the Whale is forty degrees
cast from Diphda and is about twenty-five
degrees west of the Hyades. It makes a
rude isosceles triangle with Aldebaran and
Saiph (in Orien), Aldebaran at the vcitex,
and Mcnkar at the angle farthest south.
It also makes nearly an equilateral tiiangle
with the Pleiades and Shcratan, in the
head of the Ram, or an irregular quadrilat
eral with the Pleiades, Shcratan and Algel
in the head of Medusa. It also makes a
large isosceles triangle with Alpheratz anil
Diphda with Mcnkar at the vertex.
There aie also five stars in the hca, 1 of the
Whale, four or five degrees apart from one
another, which are se situated as te form
a regular pentagon. The brightest of
these is Mcnkar. Thirteen degrees west
from Mcnkar towards Diphda is the
variable star Mira. This becomes invisi
ble once in every 331 days. It is known as
"the wonderful star of 159G," because it
disappeared wholly from sight that year.
The Fishes, a straggling constellation of
faint stars, are the twelfth sign of the
Zodiac. They lie directly west of the
Ram and south of Andromeda and
Pegasus, The star of note here is El
Rischa which may be found some seven or
eight degiees from Mira tewaids Shcratan,
about three degrees west of a straight
line cbnnecting these stars. It is ncai ly
ever the equator.
We turn new te the Hare, a small con
stellation a few degrees south of Orien.
Here the four prominent stars make a
quadrilateral net unlike the bowl of Great
Dipper, the two stars en the western side
being the pointers te Saiph. Of these the
star nearest Saiph is Arneb, and the ether,
which is farthest south en the western
side, is Nibal. The star Arneb is eleven
degrees south of Rigel,
Our last constellation for the evening
Canis Majer,' the -Greater Deg has per
haps been one of the best known te man
kind in all ages of the past, containing, as
it does, the resplendent Deg Star, Sirius,
the largest and brightest orb in the
heavens. The ancients thought it was the
heat of this star added te that of the Sun
that caused the increased temperature of
mid-summer. Hence this season became
known as the "deg days," or the time
"when the Deg Star rages." The Remans
were accustomed yearly te sacrifice a deg
te Sirius te propitiate his favor towards
their herds and fields. This star is about
ten degrees cast of the Hare and twenty
three degrees southeast from the Belt of
Oiien. It is twenty-six degrees fiem
Betelguese and the same distance from
Procyen, with which stars it makes a beau
tiful equilateral triangle, all of them being
stars of the first magnitude. The diameter
of the Sun is about 880,000 miles, that of
Sirius is estimated at ticelce millions, te
that while Alcyone would make 1200 suns
like ours, Sirius would make meic than
2500 ! Its proper motion in its orbit is 840
miles per minute, and its distance from
our earth is reckoned at 22 light years !
Sirius is in the head of Canis Majer ; five
and a half degrees te the west is Mirzan,
iu the fore-paw of the deg ; and in the
neck, at a distance of five degrees te the
cast, is Muliphan, a star that disappeared
in 1070 and was net again seen for twenty
years, but has shone steadily ever since.
Eleven degrees southeast from Siiiuswill
be found a beautiful triangle formed of
bright stars all of which are named. That
at the vertex of the triangle, nearest Sir
ius is Wesen ; te the east, in the base of
the triangle, is Aludra, and te the west
Adhara. These last named stars are about
five and a half degrees apart.
Te recapitulate, continuing our numeri
cal list from last meeting, we have : .Ne.
81, Aldebaran, iu the Hyades ; 82, Al
cyone, in the Pleiades, both stars and star
clusters belonging te Taurus, the Bull ;
83, Arictis ; 84, Sheratan; 85, Mesaitim,
in Aries, the Ram ; 80, Diphda ; 87, Mcn
kar ; 88, Mira, iu Cetus, the Whale ; 89, El
Rischa, in the Fishes ; 90, Arneb ; 91, Xi-
bal, in the Ilaie ; 92, Sinus, the Deg btar ;
93, Mirzam ; 94, Muliphan ; 9j Wcsen ; 90,
Aludra, and 97, Adhara, in Canis Majer,
the Greater Deg.
Mr. Frank Giiest then, for three-quarters
of an hour, discussed Ihe Nebular
Hypothesis, making a very clear
and effective presentment of this
grand theory. He had net only
consulted many authorities, both modem
and less recent, but, iu order te have the
latest opinions of our ablest American
astionemcrs, had also been iu correspond
ence with Profs. Ncwcemb, Pierce and
Langlcy, from all of whom interesting let
ters were lead at the close of the lectin c.
It was stated by Mr. McCaskcy that he
had engaged Rev. Henry W. Wan en te
deliver a lecture, illustrated with the calci
um light, en "Recreations in Astronomy,"
in Fulton hall, Thursday evening, Fcbiu
ary 20. Prof. Procter, the foremost lec
turer in the world upon this science, had
been in Lancaster one memorable evening
early in the Star Club course, and the lec
tin e anticipated would come in appropri
ately at its close. Procter is au astronomer
by piofessien and speaks ett'eetivcly anil
with atithei ity from the scientific stand
point. Rev. Mr. Wancn is by profession
a clergyman, one of the ablest in America,
but has for a lifetime pursued the study
of astronomy with all the enthusiasm of a
devotee of the science. He is mere elo
quent than Procter, indeed the most elo
quent lecturer upon astionemy who has
appeared upon the platform since the
death of Mitchell. He is also author of the
most popular weik en the subject that has
recently been published. Mr. Wanen has
already been heard twice in Lancaster,
within the past few years, once en the
"Forces of a Sunbeam," and again en a
"Trip te the Stars." But the lecture
premised which will be doubly interest
ing from its movable illustrations, with
the same gentleman te handle the calcium
light as at the Procter lecture will greatly
suipjss in interst cither of these just
named. Coming near "the close of the
Star Club ceuisc te supplement with vciy
different treatment that of Prof. Piocter,
this evening also in Fulton hall can safely
be reckoned upon as one that will never be
forgotten by these who arc se feitunate te
be present.
In a letter of a day or two since Mr.
Warren writes : " The astronomical work
doing in Lancaster county has surprised
me and new that I see the published re
ports in the Scheel Jeurnnland elsewhere I
am delighted. I received my first lessens
iu astionemy before I knew the four fund
amental iu!cs in arithmetic. These lessens
I have never forgotten. They have made
me feci at home whenever I have tinned
my face te the skies, though I was en the
gi cat ocean, among the Alps, en the Pyra
mid, or under the clear sky of the East,
where Ged, seeking te lift Abraham up te
his own lefty thought, said unto him,
' Loek new towards heaven and tell ine the
stars if thou be able.' Perhaps I did net
thank the district school teacher as I should
at the time, but I have blessed her ev cr
since, and am glad te say any weid of en
couragement te any that aic following in
her footsteps."
The next meeting of the club will be
held en Friday evening, Febiuary G, when
the Zodiac w ill be the special subject for
discussion.
