He was attended by Ambulance Surgeon Dowd of the Williamsburgh Hospital. Mr. Cunningham was taken home by members of Engine Company No. 109. HER CAMERA CAUGHT ASTEROID.

Woman Astronomer Offers a Surprise to Scientists Which Interests Them. Cambridge, November 15 The elliptical elements ot a new asteroid discovered in a photograph of the heavens taken' at Are quipa, Peru, August 14, 1901, have been com puted by Professor Simon Newcomb of Wah ington and Miss Anna Winlock of Harvard University. The photgraphlc plate showed the asteriod as having a declination of minus 60 degrees, or occupying such a position that it had hitherto been unrecorded by astrono mers. The preliminary circular orbit of the as teroid, computed by Miss Winlock of the Harvard Observatory, showed its daily motion around the sun to exceed 2,200 seconds, thus making it nearer the sun than any asteroid previously studied. Professor Newcomb, with the assistance of Miss Winlock, has found it to have a greater ellipticlty than any other known similar body.

When discovered the asteroid was almost at its nearest point tb the sun, or about 150,000,000 miles distant from that body. Since then it has been moving rapidly north and is now within reach of the telescopes of Europe and the United States. SUSTAINS THE ARBTTCRXES. Toledo, Ohio, November 15 Judge Puga ley. In the Common Pleas Court, yesterday, handed down a decision in the now famous case in which a local grocer was arrested at the instance of the state pure food commissioner on the ground that he was selling a certain brand of glazed coffee turned out by the Arbuckles' company, the commissioner alleging that the glazing was a violation of the pure food laws.

In a lower court the commissioner won, but Judge Pugsley reversed the decision and administered a rebuke to the lower courts. The Judge held that the coffee was clearly pure food within the meaning of the law. FILLED OUT THE CHECK. Bookkeeper Who Had One Signed in Blank Said to Have Secured $2,901.43 by It. Anthony 0.

Campbell against Dr. Robert E. Campbell, which culminated recently In a verdict for the defendant by default. Is up again in a new form. The case has attracted much attention owing to the fact that Cora Belle Durham, a Nebraska girl, who was named as the corespondent, came to Brooklyn to testify in open court that she was guilty of perjury iu deposing in an affidavit that the defendant was intimate with her.

To day, in special term of the Supreme Court, an application, was made by former Judge George G. Eeynolds and George E. Waldo, as counsel for Mrs. Campbell, to open the default which was taken by the defendant on October 29. At the conclusion of the argument on the motion.

Justice Maddox reserved his decision. Judge Reynolds said that the political campaign in Nebraska during October was chiefly responsible for the suit being decided against his client. The acts of infidelity upon which the action was based were all alleged to have occurred in the Derby Hotel at David City, whither Dr. Campbell had gone in October, 1900, to see Mayor Al drich of David City, who represented his real estate interests in the place. All the material witnesses were residents of the state, but the majority of them, were prominent politicians, and they could not be persuaded or compelled to come to Brooklyn during the heat of a political struggle.

It was true that they had all testified before a commission which was sent to Nebraska to examine them, but all their testimony had been affected by the action of Miss Durham, who had denied all that She had sworn. to. They were now willing to come to Brooklyn and testify in behalt of Mrs. Campbell if the court. would open the default.

judge Reynolds briefly reviewed the case and said that the defendant, who was a well known Buffalo physician, had been supported by his wife and that in return for her kindness he had led a disreputable life and was not fit to be the husband of a respectable woman. The charge of his client was, he said, that her husband had been intimate with Miss Durham, who was a waitress at the hotel in David City. Owing to the change in the attitude of Miss Durham, the core snondent. said Judse Reynolds, the plaintiff was not ready to proceed with the trial of the case when it was called by Justice Gar retson on October 29, as the Nebraska witnesses were not on hand, and the court, ordered that judgment be awarded the defendant by default. He added that courts don't administer justfte by default and asked chat the default be opened, so that Mrs.

Campbell could try the issue with her witnesses. "Why shouldn't the plaintiff have an opportunity to try the case?" asked Justice Maddox of the opposing counsel. Counsel in reply said that his client would be harmed by another trial, as it would put him to great expense and would damage the fine reputation he has established as a physician in Buffalo. He added that the policy pursued all through the case by the plaintiff has been one of delay and that the judgment by default was taken only after she had had ample time to press her action. Justice Maddox gave the plaintiff's attorneys until Monday to' examine the affidavits, which had been submitted by the defendant and hand in their answering papers.

ASTRONOMY OF The Rev. Frederick Campbell Tells a Public School Audience What the Sky Reveals to the Observing. Among the most interesting of the scientific lectures now being given in the free public course under the direction of the Brooklyn School Board are those on astronomy, which, as is shown by the lecturers, is not so' difficult a subject as the beginner supposes. A large audience greeted the Rev. Frederick Campbell in the assembly room of Public School No.

133, Butler street, between Fourth and Fifth avenues, last night, and was amply repaid for its attendance in what the lecturer had to say, particularly as he illustrated his subject quite extensively. He said, among other things: "It is a mistake to suppose that the study of asrronomy is either difficult or dull. The subject is literally flooded with light; sun, moon and stars are always pouring their beams upon us, and, though there is much in 'his science, as in all others, to baffle inquiry, still the main facts may be easily acquired, and to possess them is to possess a fund of eujoyment of which it is ever afterward impossible to deprive us. "All the stars are worlds, and with the exception of only five of their number all of them are glowing suns like our own, but apparently fainter, because immensely more distant. The five exceptions are five of eight planets, one of which is the earth on which we live, and two more too distant to be visible to the naked eye; the other three look like the rest of the stars, except that In general they are more brilliant on the one hand and move about among the other stars on the other.

In reality they shine only with the reflected light of the sun, and their motions are due to their nearness to the earth, which makes their motions appreciable to the eye and the mind. All the eight planets move in orbits round about the central sun. When the sun and any of these planets are In the same direction from the earth they are, of course, lost in the daylight; but in other directions they are seen like ordinary stars. Owing to the movement of the earth in its own orbit and the different rates of speed among the other planets they are sometimes widely scattered, and at other times brought closely together. "Our interest in these planets is greatly heightened at the present time, because of the fact that the three most brilliant of them are approaching very closely to each other.

Jupiter travels so much faster than Saturn that he encircles the sun in twelve years, while Saturn requires twenty nine and a half years. About once in twenty years, therefore, Jupiter will overtake and pass Saturn, and, as the earth and the other planets all travel in nearly the same plane, Jupiter and Saturn now appear very close to one another In the southwestern sky in the early evening. On the 28th of this month Jupiter will pass Saturn, a little less than half a degree to the south. At that time both may be seen in any telescope capable of revealing the entire moon, for the moon's diameter Is about half a degree. But Venus, the brightest of all 6tars seen in the heavens, and just now increasing in brightness, has been rapidly overtaking both these planets, and at a distance of about three degrees south of them will pass Jupiter on the 18th and Saturn on the 19th.

"The various combinations formed by these shifting worlds irom night to night will be objects of interest all through the month But perhaps the most spectacular phenomenon of all will be that of the lGth, when the beautiful crescent moon will pass north of the entire group and close to them all, and the cluster of new moon and Venus, Jupiter and Saturn will present a display such aa none ought to miss and none who see will ever forget. In order to witness these Bights at all one mtist look low in the southwestern heavens very soon after dark, for soon after 1 o'clock the whole group begins to eet." SAILED FOR THE RIVER PLATTE.

WHY MARESCA WAS ARRESTED. Captain. O'Reilly Says He Is Determined to Drive All Gamblers Out of His Precinct. Ernesto Maresca, 26 years old, an Italian, who says he can speak no English, but writes his name in so good a hand that any American can read, was before Magistrate Tighe In the. Butler street court to day to answer to a charge of being a common gambler made by Acting.

Detective Denis Murphy of the Hamilton avenue station. Maresca was arrested yesterday afternoon in a building in the rear of the cigar and confectionery store at 118 Van Brunt street. Then he Bald he had no occupation. To day he said he was the proprietor of a place of the kind where he was arrested. He had a half a score of friends In court and more than half the number were Americans and several of whom wor diamonds.

In Maresrd's pockets were found Bcores of alleged policy slips and many lottery tickets. Some of the latter were printed in English and others, issued by an alleged Italian concern, were printed in Italian. The prisoner, who gives his home address as 51 Sackett street, came from Italy less than a year ago. Captain O'Reilly, who is always making life miserable for lawbreakers in the Hamilton avenue precinct, is just now waging war on policy men, not those who maintain poke shops, for long ago he drove all that sort of individuals outside the limits of his precinct. He lately learned, however, that men were going from place to place In his precinct peddling policy slips.

Gigs were played usually for 2, 3 and 4 cents, and at once he issued an edict that that sort of gambling, considered by many experienced In such methods as the most dangerous, because women and children are permitted to indulge, must cease. The captain and two of his right hand men. Detectives Reynolda and Murphy, went out on a policy peddler hunt yesterday afternoon, and It was In the Van Brunt street store they "spotted" Maresca. The latter apparently knew the officers, for when they entered by the Trout door he departed by a rear door. When he reached the back yard the captain and his men saw Maresca toss a small paper bundle up In the air.

It landed on a small Bhed and Detective Reynolds clambered up on the structure to get it, while Murphy continued his chase after Maresca. whom he Anally located and placed under arrest. Detective Reynolds had barely reached the top of the shed in quest of the paper package when there was a crash and he fell, turning a somersault and striking Captain O'Reilly on the head, a distance of ten feet below. Rey nolds' head was cut, but he had the package, which proved to be a stenographer note. book rolled up and tied with a string.

This was cut directly through the center lengthwise and contained rows of figures like gigs used in policy play. It was apparently a rec ord book. The prisoner was taken to the sta tion house, searched and alleged policy sups and lottery tickets found in hla pockets. Later In the day Maresca was bailed out by Judge Keady of the Court of Special Sessions, Caroline Reld of 184 warren street signing the bond. In court the prisoner was represented by H.

E. Raltano from May Fragner's office, who entered a plea of not guilty. Magistrate Tighe held Maresca for examination on Mon day, ball being fixed at JS0O and furnished by Edward J. McNoble, a liquor dealer of 355 Furman street. Two men, Andrew Lider and James Sharp, will be in the Butler street court next week on a charge of having policy slips in their possession.

Captain O'Reilly caused their arrest, the first named being taken on Dlkeman street and the other in a Columbia street saloon. HELD TO SAVE CABLE TOLLS.

John's, N. November 15 A terrific gale has raged along the coast since last night, and it is feared that many fatalities have occurred among the fishing craft. The hulls of all the steamers which were wrecked on the Cape Race peninsula during tho past season have been broken to pieces and the cargoes which were still on board were washed away. One man who was working on the wreck of the Swedish steamship Vera (wrecked near Renews, August 2), was killed by a stone blown from a cliff. Another man perished from exposure while crossing from the wrecks through a forest to his home.

DIED AT THE HOSPITAL.

A German gunboat is assisting her. The transport grounded on a sandy bottom. The Hancock is the third United States transport to meet with a mishap in Japanese waters recently.

She had on board a number of returning troops and the Congressional party which had been visiting the Philippine Islands.

The Warren left Nagasaki November 3 with the congressional party, 318 sick and Insane soldiers, 72 naval officers and men, 118 casuals, 23 cabin passengers and 28 prisoners on board, all of whom had been transferred to her from the Sheridan. But, it was announced from Manila November 5, that the Warren, owing to an accident in the Inland Sea, would have to be docked at Nagasaki. The Hancock, it was announced from Washington November 6, having then just, arrived at Manila, had been coaled and dispatched to Kobe, Japan, where the Warren then was, to take her passengers to San Francisco. The Hancock arrived at Nagasaki November 12, according to a dispatch from Washington and was to sail Wednesday, November 13, for San Francisco, with the belated passengers of the Sheridan and the Warren. Tnis dispatch also said that the Sheridan was out of dry dock and would be repaired, so that she might sail about November 16.

November 15 On the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Pan American Exposition Company, the creditors have named committees to act in conjunction with their executive committee. The creditors divided themselves into three separate classes representing the second mortgage bondholders; those interested in construction claims, and claimants for operating expenses.
