The photographs of 25,876 standard plates show the pole*", or images, of 100.600,000 suns. These have not been actually counted, but plates secured by exposure in teleeameras to typical regions of the sky have, und the entire number has been subjected to the cal culus of probabilities, resulting In the general number of 100,000,000 colossal suns. These have been weighed—that is, their combined force of gravitational attraction has been computed. This led to one of the most overwhelming discoveries—namely, this entire pull of attractions of the quantity of matter in 100,000,000 suns as massive as our own sun could not eveD begin to im part the high specific speeds of several well known “runaway” suns. These are dashing through what has lieen named space with velocities so much greater than all other suns that they are a class by themselves. Our sun contains 333,426 times more mr:ter than is in the earth, and this multiplied by 1(0,000,000 reveals the quautity of matter known to exist, be | yond ail human imagination.
