Nothing Beyond the Milky
WASHINGTON. The boundaries of
the universe have been discov
ered, according to a report received
t the National Observatory from
Prof. It. T. A. Innea, director of the
Union Observatroy at Johannesburg,
South Africa. The announcement is
regarded with Interest by astronom
ers all over the world.
The universe, Prof. Innes asserts, Is
contained within the space girdled by
the .Milky Way, and he figures that
the most distant star in that wonder
ful girdle Is 540 light years distant
from the earth. Inasmuch as the
planetary system, of which the earth
la a member. Is commonly supposed
by astronomers to be close to the cen
ters of the arena embraced within the
Milky Way, and Inasmuch as light
travels 186,000 miles a second, or
over five and three-quarters quadril
lion miles a year, the diameter of the
universe, by Prof. Innes's calculation
Is 6.334,951,000,000 miles. This is the
distance light would travel in 1.080
years. A ray of light takes sixteen
minutes and thirty-six seconds to
traverse the diameter of the earth's
orbit.
The so-called "helium stars." the
Johanr.osburg astronomer avers, are
the most distant of all stars from the
earth. The helium stars are peculiar
to the Milky Way.
Is there anything outside the uni
verse? On this point Prof. Innes does
cot venture a positive opinion, but he
Bays that the most powerful tele
scopes penetrate far into space, be
yond the boundaries of the universe
revealing nothing. In particular, he

Popcorn Can Be Profitably Raised on the Farm
THIRTY dollars' worth of popped
corn in the form of 5-cent packages
for the market represents an outlay
of only about 1 or $1.50 for raw ma
terial, according to a farmers' bulletin
(No. 553) Just Issued by the depart
ment of agriculture, entitled "Popcorn
for the Home." Sufficient popcorn to
make $30 worth of 5-cent packages
can be grown on a piece of land 40
feet long and 20 feet wide.
The specialists In corn Investiga
tions who write this bulletin say that
popcorn has considerable value as a
food and when properly prepared for
the table It Is superior to many of
the breakfast foods now on the mar
ket t If It Is desired to grow popcorn as
e field crop, the surplus stock not
wanted for home use can usually be
eold to local merchants at a fair price,
or It can be profitably sold directly to
consumers.
Dealers who put up popcorn in 10
cent packages for the retail trade us
ually have a number of good recipes
printed on the outside of the package.
Some recipes for popcorn confections
that have given good results are the
following:
Chocolate Popcorn Two teacupfuls
of white sugar, two ounces of choco
late, one-half cup of corn sirup, one
cup of water.
Put these ingredients Into a kettle
and cook them until the sirup hard
ens, when put In cold water. Pour
over four quarts of crisp, freBhly pop

the air in South Africa Is very clear

far-away clouds called "nebulae,"
which some astronomers suppose to
be star-systems in process of forma'
tlon. Many of these nebulae are spiral-looking,
and the conjecture Is that
they are whirling around and around,
condensing themselves Into solid
globes, on which Ufa may later ap
pear. The number of stars, according to
Prof. Innes, Is limited, falling far
short of the number of people on the
earth. Me estimates the mass of the
universe as equal to 441,000 times the
mass of the sun. That Is to say, the
combined mans of all the globes, big
and little, in the universe is as heavy
as 441,000 suns. Of stars 100 times as
massive as the sun there are 300; of
stars ten times as massive as the
sun there are S.000; of stars equal
In mass to the -sun there are 200,000:
and of stars smaller than the sun
there are 16.000,000, 1,000,000 of which
are one-tenth the mass of the sun, 6.
000.000 are one one-hundredth of the
sun's mass, and 10,000,000 are one one
thousandth of the sun's mass. There
are besides small stars in scattered

It Is probable that a majority of tha
stars, he adds, have a greater sur
face brilliancy than the sun. Thus, as
In the solar system, nearly all the
mass is contained In a few bodies, the
large majority contributing but slight
ly to the total. The stars are well
mixed as to sizes, small stars occur
ring where there are large ones and
large stars being found where small
stars are nunmrous.
Prof. Innes' other conclusions are
that there Is no 6erlous absorption of
light In space, that It Is unproved that
the sun and stars radiate into empty
space, and that the existence of "dark"
suns Is quite without demonstration.

Kew York. It might have been cen
turies instead of forty-three years
since the first apartment house was
erected in this city, so great has been
the improvement in this popular type
of dwelling. Rutherford Stuyvesant,
a member of the old Stuyvesant fam
ily, was the first to introduce the
apartment in this country. He had
seen apartments in Paris. They were
popular there with the best of peo
ple. Besides, It Increased the ability
of the owner to pay his tax bills and
other expenses.
The tax problem Interested Mr.
Stuyvesant, as he owned considerable
property about the city. Probably this
was the reason for his interest in
Paris apartment houseB. After con
vincing himself that they would go in
New York, he erected the Rutherford,
at 142 East Eighteenth street, soon
after the Civil war. It was known as
the French flats, and was the talk of
the town. The Rutherford Stuyvesant
house is still standing, and according
to brokers, has comparatively few va
cancies. It is five stories high, 112
feet wide and ninety-two feet deep.
There are four apartments of seven
rooms each to a floor. It has steam
heat and hot water and is absolutely
soundproof.
The reception that met the apart
ment house was so great that many
builders entered the apartment house
field. Of late years the number has
increased considerably. These build
ers have given up the construction of
all but apartment houses, which has
got to be a science requiring constant
attention and application. Through
.this specializing New York has been
forced in the last ten years into the
front rank as the apartment center
of the world.
' Many of our apartments here rival
palaoes in grandeur and fittings.
(Scores of such houses may be found
on Park avenue, Fifth avenue. Mad

two and three rooms bring compara

CITY OF FLATS
' Park avenue has usurped the honor
of being the leading apartment street
of the city. It is only a few years
since builders of apartments gave any
attention to the east side of the city.
All their operations were along Uroad
way, Riverside drive and West End
avenue. It is only a few years since
the first apartment house was erect
ed in Park avenue, yet moBt of the
blocks on either side of the avenue
from Fifty-second to Eighty-third
street, are lined now with tall apart
ments, which are said to be the best
in the city. Though Park avenue is
considered the leading apartment
house avenue in the city, rentals
there are not exorbitant In fact,
apartments in new buildings may be
got to fit almost any purse. Six rooms
and two baths can be had for $1,700
a year. Suites can be had even for
less rent than this. From $1,700 rents
range gradually to $10,000, which Is
about the highest rental paid on the
avenue. This rent Is obtained in the
seventeen story apartment at Seventy
ninth street Prices in this house are
from $9,000 to $10,000.
About two blocks away, at the cor
ner of Fifth avenue and Elghty-flrst
street, as high as $5,000 a year may
be paid for apartments. This prob
ably is the highest-priced apartment
house in the world.
West End avenue has been the scene
of most of the apartment house build
ing on the west side since last sea
son. Half a dozen fine houses have
been erected there.

ART MARVELS FROM THE SEA
Ancient and Valuable Relics Removed
From Sunken Ship Off Tunisian
Coast.
Paris. News has been received of
an archaeological find of the greatest
Interest. At Madhia, on the Tunisian
coast, five or six years ago some
Greek sponge fishers noticed a strange
mass of wreckage lying at a depth
of 130 feet to the north of Madhia
lighthouse. Amid a jumble of timbers
lay splendid marble columns, bronze
statuettes, a superb life-sized boy's fig
ure and other treasures, which they
succeeded In bringing to the Burface.
It has now been ascertained that
the sunken ship was a vessel of about
400 tons. 100 feet long and 25 feet
broad. She was laden with an ex
traordinary, heterogeneous cargo, not
only blocks of marble, but bases and
capitals for columns, effigies, statues,
furniture, tiles, leaden piping, lamps,
amphorae, etc. Among the fragments
were found figures of a demigod and
a maiden and faun which correspond
almost exactly with those upon what
is known as the Ilorghese vase dug
up in Rome and now in the Louvre.
The bottom of the hold contains
about sixty columns of bluish white
marble thirteen feet high, which were
probably one of the causes of the
wreck of an evidently too heavily
freighted ship. All the inscriptions
deciphered relate to Attica and per
sonages of the middle fourth century
B. C, and it might have been thought
that the vessel dated from that period
but for the Iloetbus statue and a lamp
of a pattern only introduced into At
tica at the end of the second century
B. C. Some writing on lead ingots
also is in the Latin of that epoch and
experts have concluded so far that
the vessel was loaded In Attica for
Rome and probably the cargo wae the
spoil after the taking of Athens by
Sulla in 86 B. C.
