HUGGINS,K.C.B.,O.M.  \nBy W.W.CAMPBELL.  \nThe name of Sir WILLIAM HUGGINS is intimately associatedwith the entire history of astronomical spectroscopy.WithRuTHERFURD,SECCHI,ANGSTRÖM,DRAPER,and others,he wasa pioneer in this subject;and by virtue of long life,enthusiasm,and uncommon wisdom,his contributions have enriched astro-nomical knowledge during a full half century.His lamenteddeath on May I2,I9Io,at the ripe age of eighty-six years,calls for a review of his remarkable career.  \nWILLIAM HUGGINS was born in London on February 7,I824.His father was in commercial life,and was able toprovide the son not only with a good education,but the finan-cial means to follow astronomy in a private capacity,unattachedto university or established observatory.His early educationwas received in the City of London School,and he laterstudied the languages,mathematics,and various branches ofscience extensively under private tutors.Astronomy andmicroscopy were subjects of special interest,and it was adifficult question with him as to which he should attempt toadvance through original investigations.The decision wasmade in favor of astronomy.In I856 he removed to 90 UpperTulse Hill,then a short distance in the open country south ofLondon,now within the great city,where he erected anobservatory in connection with his dwelling-house;and thereall of his work was.done.\"It consisted of a dome twelve feetin diameter and a transit-room.There was erected in it anequatorially mounted telescope by DoLLAND of five inches  \nPublications of the  \naperture,at that time looked upon as a large rather than asmall instrument.\"He commenced work on the usual lines,taking transits,observing,and making drawings of planets.In 1858 the 5-inch refractor was replaced by a Clark 8-inchrefractor of great excellence.  \nIn the Nineteenth Century Review for June,I897,SirWILLIAM has given an interesting account of his entry intothe spectroscopic ield:一  \n\"I soon became a little dissatisfied with the routine char-acter of ordinary astronomical work,and in a vague waysought about in my mind for the possibility of research uponthe heavens in a new direction or by new methods.It wasjust at this time,when a vague longing after newer methodsof observation for attacking many of the problems of theheavenly bodies filled my mind,that the news reached me ofKIRCHHOFF's great discovery of the true nature and the chem-ical constitution of the Sun from his interpretation of theFraunhofer lines.  \n“This news was to me like the coming upon a spring of waterin a dry and thirsty land.Here at last presented itself thevery order of work for which in an indefinite way I was look-ing,—name","cbCaiia3NuQ049od","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiia3NuQ049od","pdf",1311276,17,"English","# Sir William Huggins
