ORIGIN OF METEORITES.
WEBB THE? THROWN FROM ONOB
ACTIVE LUNAR VOLCANOES?
They Alone of All Known Sourcae Bed
the Requisite Power to Hurl Such
Bodies Within the Sphere of the
Barth's Attraction—They Travel for
Agree
In the tnurent number of Astronomy
•a d Astro-Physics, Prof. George W. C'oak
of the University of the City of New
York has an Interesting artiole on the
“Probable Origin of Meteorites.” Prof.
Coakle; defines the word meteorites, as be
uses it, “to denote only those solid masses of
metals or minerals whiob have been ascer
tained to have fallen upon the earth from
tome source beyond It,” and be particu
larly excludes shooting stars or showers of
such stars.
Quoting various writers who have main
tained that meteorites are of volcauio ori
gin, Prof. Coakley disputes the theory that
the volcanoes from which the meteorites
were originally hurled were on the earth,
and theu proposes a theory whioh, he says,
is neither his own nor new. It is simply
that these volcanoes "existed formerly in
an active state on our moon, and they alone
had the requisite power to throw these solid
bodies (meteoriteei beyond the reaob of the
moon’s prevailing attraction and within the
controlling attraction of the earth.”
By mathematical computation a point in
spaoe la established where the attraction of
the moon and the earth urs equalized. Prof.
Coakley says:
“The velocity with which a lunar voloano
nearest the earth must projeot a body to
juat reach the nearest point of the sphere of
equal attrection, at the distanoe from the
moon's center equal to 23,884 miles Is found
to be 1.441 miles [wr second. The velocity
with which the body must be projected
from a lunar voloano fartbeat from the
earth on the opposite hemisphere of the
moon, to a distance from her center equal
to 20,855 miles Is found to be 1.460 miles per
second. But while the projectile in the
former case, thrown toward the earth, is
leaving the moon's surface and drawn back
by her attraction, its flight is being helped
by the earth’s attraction whioh alona would
impart to it a final velocity at the surface
of the sphere, equal to 0.292 mile per sec*
ond.
‘‘Hence the lunar volcano nearest the
earth needs only to impart the velocity 1.443
minus 0.292 equals 1,151 miles per second In
order to cause the projectile to reaoh the
surface of equal attraction. This is only
about three times the maximum velocity of
2,000 feet per second of a cannon ball. In
tbe opposite direction, however, when the
projectile is launched from a volcano on tbe
moon’s farthest hemisphere, if tbere be any
there, with the velocity 1.450 miles per sec
ond, the earth's attraction hel) a the moon to
tiring it back witu a total imparted velooity
of 0,292 miles per seoond. Henoe tbe vol
cano ought to Impart a velooity of 1.450
pine 0.292 equals 1.742 miles per second in or
der that tbe bcdy may just reaoh the sphere
of equal attraction. The velocity is only
about four end a half times the cannon
ball’s maximum velocity of 2,000 feet per
second. However, it is not improbable that,
in tbie last ease, the earth's attraction would
help the moon to bring back tbe projectile
to bar surface. Though it is probable that
the moou's farthest hemisphere has beeu
subject to volcanic action, like the hemi
sphere nearest to us, yet we know nothing
certain with regard to that distant faeoii
sp ere. We shall not o<>nntou it iuauy way
in the theory of meteorites, eaoept that it is
now certain that an initial velooitv of tr-m
three to about four and a half times tbe
maximum velocity of a cannon ball applied
in a vertical direction to a projectile at any
point of tbe moon's surface would bring it
to the surface of the sphere of equal attrac
tion between the earth and moon.
“Indeed, we may leave out of acoount
any lunar v.loanj situated more than 84“
ou a great ciroie across ha moon’s disk from
the point nearest tbe earth. In this case
every projectile from any voloauo within
these 848 will be more or less assisted, in
lls flight from the moon’s surface, by the
earth’s attraction The extreme velocity
which the volca .o alone must supply to tbe
projectile will thou be just about four times
the cannon bsl.’j maximum velooity; and
the least ve.ocity required from the voloauo
will be three time* this maximum velocity
of the oannun ball. Hence we have the fact
that over a wide range of 163* on a great
circle of the moon's nearest hemisphere, in
every direction from lta visible center, a
lunar volcano needs only to Impart these
moderate velocities, of three or four times
that of a cannon ball, to send a projectile to
the surface of tbe sphere of equal attraction
between the earth and moon.
‘ ‘Every astronomer knows that the moon’s
nearest hemisphere is almost covered, in all
direotlons, by the craters of extinct vol
canoes, many of them far greater in extent
than any on tile earth. It can hardly te
doubted that the earth's volcanoes are
capable of imparting, in a vertical di
rection, a velocity three, four or five times
that of the oannoo ball’s maximum. Hence
these larger lunar volcanoes must bs con-
sidered oapable of exerting at least an
equal force. The bodies projected from
them wouldjreach tbe surface of the sphere
of equal attraotlon with various velooities,
and from all directions within 84“ of the
moon’s visible oenter, on a great ciroie
of her disk. If the greater part of these
projectiles had fallen haok to tue moon, the
interior floor of her voloanio craters would
presents very different appearance from
that observed. They would be filled up
with these irregular fragments, instead of
presenting usually a deeply exoavated and
smooth surraoe, only broken occasionally by
a few small voloanio oones, the effects
probably of subsequent minor eruptions.
“Tbe moon's volcanoes must have been
active for many ages, though they have
now been extinot perhaps for millions of
years. The explosions, which may have
aent forth the masses that have fallen ou tbe
earth, should be considered as having taken
plaoe at various periods, after long intervals
from the same voloauo. and also at different
times and in various direotlons, from other
volcanoes with a different situation on the
moon’s surfaoe. The projectiles should not
be considered as all starting at onoe from
all the volcanoes, but their objections
should be regarded as spread over long in
tervals of time, whether from the same or
from different lunar volcanoes.
Let us consider more particularly the
probable oouree of someone projectile,
thrown from tbe visible oenter of the moou’s
disc direotly toward the earth, and with
just sufficient velocity to oause it to reach
the nearest surfaoe of the sphere of equal
attraction. What would happen when the
projeotle reached this point) It certainly
would not go back to the moon, beoause
the earth’s equal attraction would prevent
euoh a result. Neither would it go directly
to the earth, because of the moou’s equal at
traction. But tbe moon has the same
average velooity of about eighteen miles
per seoond around the sun, which the earth
has in her annal orbit. Hence the projectile
in consideration, having the same ve.ocity
of eighteen miles perseooud, will go around
the suu in an annual orbit just
as tbe earth and the moon do. Also the
moon has a velocity of about 0.638 miles
per second in her relative orbit about the
earth; and the projectile will also have this
same velocity eastward, and will therefore
revolve about the earth just as the moon
does, and nearly In tbe same time and in
the same plane. It will booome a satellite
of both the sun and the earth. The per
turbations of its orbit about the ea r th, by
both the sun and the moon, will be very
great; but they may never cause it to fall
on the earth, as even Laplace supposes, be
cause its orbit will be too nearly oiruular. or
of small eccentricity. At any rate, if this
projectile ever reached tbe eartb, it wou.d
have to be after a very prolonged period,
in saving that sub a projectile might oorne
straight u> the earth, Laulace must have
overlooked its orbital velocity about tbe
earth, derived from ibe moon.
k I^hf po * e . lh “ , ' < “ uther Projectile from the
■ center of the moon’s disk were thrown
I with a slight excess of velocity above that
requisite to bring it to the surface of eaual
attraction. Theu it would become a satellite
| of the earth, as well as oi the sun, with an
ecoeutrioity of its orbit depending upon toe
! amount of thia excess of initial velocity.
| The apogee of its orbit about the ear to
1 would be near the moon, or rather near tbe
surface of equal attraction, on the side
i toward the earth, aid its perigee would be
I diametrioally opposite, on the other side of
• the earth. As Laplace points out. tbe sun's
attraction would disturb tbe figure a-.d
dimensions of tbe projectile's orbit about the
earth, and might bring its perigee nearer
the earth by an amount depending upou tbe
eccentricity cf tbe orbit.
Another projectile from the same voioano,
at a different time, might have a greater
initial velooity, producing a still greater ec
centricity of Its orbit about the earth, with
a consequent yet greater disturbance of its
perigee. In this way there might be very
many projectiles from thia one volcano,
their ejeotiona being spread over long pe
riods of time, with all aorta of initial veloci
ties within tbe requisite limits, producing
orbits about the earth with almost every
degree of eccentricity and oonsequent per
turbations by tbe sun. Suppose further
that similar projectiles have been thrown,
at various times, while the lunar voloanoes
were still aotlve, by each of them, wherever
placed on the nearest hemisphere of
tbe moon, and with every de
gree of initial velooity within the
proper limits. The various directions os
well as tbe velocities of these projectiles
would insure n great variety of eccentrici
ties in their orbits about the earth. They
may continue to revolve around tbe earth
for maiiy ages even after the lunar vol
canoes becamo extinct, before the aun’s at
traction could bring their perigees so near
the earth as to cause them to penetrate our
atm'isphe; e. From tbe great number and
variety of these orbits, the .poohs, when
their perigees should be so reduced by tbe
sun’s action, might readily be spread
throughout the ages. Portions of these pro
jectiles may have been dropping upon the
earth for many ages past, and they may con
tinue to do so for many ages to come.
A RATTLESNAKE HUNTBR’S STORY.
More Than 3,000 Snakes the Testimony
to His Prowees.
From tl is New York Sun.
Scranton, Dec. 8. —Clark Goodrich, of
138 South Sumner avenue, in the Hyde
park seetion of Scranton, has killed more
rattlesnakes than any other man in Penn
sylvania. Mr. Goodrioh was born and
brought up in Greenfield township, this
county, and is 65 years old. He is six feet
tall and weighs PJO pounds. Very few of
his acquaintances know what a great rattle
snake slayer he has been, for he is not much
of • talker, and be appears to
imagine that bis experiences among
the poisonous snakes are of no
particular interest to people. Mr. Gkodricb
Is a ooal breaker builder by trade. He bus
been hurt by fallen from scaffolds several
times, and the injuries have crippled him
considerably. He is now in the employ of
the New York, Ontario and Western Rail
road Company at Its switch and signal sta
tion near tbe diamond crossing, a short dis
tance north of tbe Providence read. One
nlsrbtlaat week the writer found Mr. Good
rich working the levers in his coxy little
lookout house, and between trains the old
men found time to tali some of his experi
ences.
“I hsve killed upward of 8,000 rattle
snakes,” he said, ‘and I was on tbe hunt
for every one of them when I killed it. The
only rattlesnake that caine anywhere near
striking me got angry because I uninten
tionally stepped on its tail, and struck the
front of my vest with iu tangs and left a
thread of greenish poison on it. Tbe snake
didn’t get a ohanee to strike again, for I
pinned it to the ground and out iu bead off.
“The reason why I began to bunt rattle
snakes was because my mother had three
small oanceis on her faoe whan I was quits
a young man. Tbe canoe re smarted and
burned and gave motber a great deal of
pain, although the skin was not raw, and
she suffered from them day and night. An
ludUn doctor told her to rub rattlesnake
oil on the cancers four or five times a day,
saying that it would give her relief imme
diatelv and prolong ber life I went twenty
miles for some oil and paid (2 an ounce for
it. It stopped the smarting and burning
right away, and motber felt to much better
in a few days that I made up my mind to
got enough oil to lust her a year, and 1
didn’t propose to go twenty mites to get it
or to pay #2 an ounce for it.
“Tbere were no rattlesnakes in Greenfield
township, the nearest rattlesnake grounds
being on the Mootie mounUln range, be
tween Carbondale and Dunmore. I bad
never killed a rattleauake, but I heard of
an old rattlesnake banter on tbe mountain
near tbe Pennsylvania Coal Company's
gravity railroad, and on May 8 I trudged
fifteen miles to bis house to get him to teaoh
me how to hunt the reptiles. He couldn’t
go with me, but be showed me how to pin
the snakes’ necks to the ground with a
crotohed stick, and he pointed out a rocky
side of the mountain, where, he said, I
would find plenty of rattlesnakes near their
dan. That was all tbe instruction I had,
and before noon 1 was convinced that the
old snake hunter knew all about tbo habits
and bauuts of the rattlers in the neighbor
hood.
“My first rattlesnake bunt was the most
successful one 1 ever had. My oniy Imple
ments were a orotebsd sappliog a sharp
jack-knife, and a quart bottle. I had the
bottle to put the fat In, tbe sappling to
oatoh tbe snakes with, and the kotfs to be
head the reptiles and cut the fat out. Tbe
snakes were a good deal more numerous
than 1 expected to flud them. They were
only a short distance from the den they had
wiutered in, and 1 killed 184 before the mid
dle of the afternoon The bottle wasn’t
half big enough to bold all the fat I took
out of tbe rattlesuakes, and 1 made a biroli
bark box to put tbe rest in. It was long
after dark when I got home with the fat. I
had walked nearly forty miles and killed
184 rattlesnakes since 4 o’clock iu the morn
ing, and I was tired and proud. I fried out
twenty ounoee of oil.
“The only fat In a rattlesnake lies In a
slender strip from nine to thirteen inches
long on each side of the intestines near tbe
backbone. It takas but a minute to slit the
snake's bally open and peel out tha thin
layers of fat. The fat Is as white as milk.
You have to fry tbe oil out in an earthen
vessel, end the serais that are left amount
to almost nothing. There is not a parti ole
of oil in the flesh of a rattlesnake. 1 have
heard about men banging rattlesnakes up
by tbe bead in the sun so as to let the oil
drip iuto a basin or pail. There is nothing
but nonsense in such a statement as that.
Let a rattiosnaka hang In tbe hot sun all
day and not a drop of oil would come out
of its body anywhere. The flesh would dry
up and ahrord all the fat inside. Leave the
snake in the sun for two days aDd it would
so dry and brittle that you could Ireak it
in pieces like a rotten stick.
"in my experience with rattlesnakes I
have found that tbe best time to hunt them
is soon after they eome out of their dens in
the spring au<l when they congregate near
the dens in the fall. They have just as
much fat In them when they crowd out of
their winter quarters as they have when
they return for their winter’s sleep. In the
summer the snakes are scattered all over,
and it is a west* of time to bunt them then.
Tbe rattlesnakes leave their dens from May
Bto 15 and stay clcse to them for several
days, so as to glide back in case
a chilly frost comes. When they
become satisfied that there are going to be
no more oold snaps they wander away, and
they don’t begin their journey toward the
den until some time between tbe middle of
September nod tne first of October. They
loiter outside of tbe den until tbe cold drives
them in, and while they are waiting outside
iu large numbers is when tbe hunter has the
best ebanoe to kill them. I have been in
berry fields hundreds of times in the rattle
suake regions in the summer, but 1 have
never yet seen a rattlesnake except when I
was hunting for him.
“You can't tell anything about tbe age
of rattlosnake by tbe number of rattles on
his tall. I have killed old snakes that bad
only two or three rattles each. They mar
THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1892---SIXTEEN PAGES.
*he rattles off in the bushes and on the stones
and rooks. I once killed e 4-foot snake with
twenty-three rattles. That was the largest
number I ever saw on a snake. Tbe hunter
oomes upon the rattlesnakes when they are
coiled, when they are stretched out and
when they are in motion. I don’t oere how
I find them, end I have always been able to
act quicker than the snake oould. I have
teased and tormented hundreds of
rattlesnakes to see if they would
bite themselves, but I have never
tuooeeded In making ons strike itself.
They oltener strike at persons without rat
tling than with. The snake uses its rattles
when it is startled aud for calling Its mate,
and I have frequently seen male snakes rat
tling like sixty when no other snake was in
sight and whan nothing bad scared it.
"Motner used the oil od her cancers for
eleven years. It kept the cancers from
spreading, and it relieved her entirely of
pain. She died of fits. Since than I have
hunted rattlesnakes nearly every spring
and fall for their oil There is a fascination
in the work, and one who has got in the
habit of killing tbe snakes can hardly give
it up.”
MY SCHOOL.
I sat In the school of sorrow;
The master was teaching there.
But my eyes wen dim with weeping
And my heart oppressed with care.
Instead of looking upward
And seeing his face divine.
So full of tender compassion
For weary, sad hearts like mine,
I only thought of the burden
Of the cross, that before me lay,
The olouds that hung thick above me
Darkening the light of day.
6o I could not learn the lesson
And say, "Thy will be done;"
And the master came Dot near me
As the leaden hours went on.
At last, in despair, I lifted
My streaming eyes above,
And 1 saw the master was watching
With a look of pitying love.
To the cross before me he pointed.
And I thought that I heard him say,
"My child, thou must take thy burden,
And learn thy task to-day.
"Not now. may I tell the reason;
'Tis enough for thee to know
That I, the master, am teaobing.
And appoint thee all thy woe."
Then kneeling, the cross I lifted,
For one glimpse of that face divine
Had given me strength to bear it,
And say, "Thy will, not mine,”
And so I learned my lesson.
And through the weary years
His helping hand sustained me.
And wiped away my tears.
And ever the glorious sunlight
From tbe heavenly home streams down,
’Till the school tasks are all ended
And the oross exchanged for the crowa.
