storms I'm the SUN.

Professor j D. Steele has communicated the
following to the Emira Advertiser:
There appears in the Advertiser some weeks
since a paragraph, copied, | believe, from a
Michigan paper, declaring that column of mag
netic light is shooting out from the sun at a
prodigious speed-that it already reaches half
way to the earth, and that, in all probability, by
another summer, we shall have celestial and at
mospheric phenomena beside which our rudest
winter winds will seem like g June morning in
Paradise" In fine, that when this big tongue
of fire touches the earth it will likely lap our
globe at one mouthful. Very many have made
inquiries of me concerning this prodigy, and
with your leave, will try to satisfy their curios-
iy and perhaps allay their fears.
1t has been known for some time that during
a total eclipse red flames were seen to play
about the edge of the moon. During the
eclipses of 1868 and 869 it was definitely set
tied that they were entirely disconnected from
the moon, and were vast tongues of fire darting
out from the suns disc. BY observations with
the specroscope, and also by means of the won
derful photographs of the sun taken by De La
Rue during the eclipse of 1869, it was discovered
that these fire mountains consisted mainly of
burning hydrogen gas. This was precious in
formation to secure in the midst of the excite
ment, and novelty, and in the brief duration of a
total eclipse. 1t did not, however, satisfy scien-
tifc men. For tw6 years Mr.. Lockyer, aided by
grant from Parliament to construct superior
instrument, had been experimenting and search
ing n order to detect these flames at other times
than at the rare occurrence of total eclipse.
On the goth of October, 1868, he obtained dis
tinct image Of one of the prominces, which he
afterwards traced entirely around the sun. AS
tronomers can, therefore, now study these flames
at any time.
The result Of observations now being taken
show that storms rage upon the sun with a vlo-
lence of which we can form no conception.
Hurricans sweep over its surface with terrific vi
olence. Vast cyclones wrap its fires into whirl-
pools, at the bottom of which our earth could
lie like boulder in a volcano. Huge flames
dart out to enormous distances, and fly over the
sun with a speed greater than the earth itself
through space. AT one time a cone of fire shot
out 80 900 miles, and then died away all in ten
minutes time. Besides such awful cOnvulsiOns
the mimic display of a terrestrial volcano or
earthquake sinks into insiguifcence.
There is nothing in this phenomena to alarm
US. They have, in all probability, happened
constantly for ages past. That we have now
means of Investigating their nature and measur-
ing their height and velocity, furnishes no cause
of anxiety. Rumors of these discoveries have
crept into the papers, and, exaggerated by re-
peated copying and sensational additions, have
given rise to these mysterious and uncalled for
predictions.

ASKING FOR GREENBAcKs. A petition has
been started in San Francisco and thence will be
distributed over the State for signatures, asking
for greenback currency, or what is tantamount
thereto. Mouied men are moving in the matter
Here is the document;
To the Senate and Assembly of California
The undersigned, citizens of the State of Califor-
mia, earnestly petition your honorable bodies to
repeal the law of the State, requiring taxes to be
paid in gold. The increasing stagnation of
business throughout California, involving alike
the great interests of mining, agriculture, COM
merce and manufactures, is mainly owing to the
strlngeney in the money market, caused by the
absence of circulation medium adopted to the
wants of the State. This scarcity of money
which clogs the wheels of business and is an
impeachment to all legitimate enterprise, is daily
becoming more binding and unless relieved by
the adoption of the National currency, will soon
leave us p0weress to compete with the great
States, which, although comparatively remote
few years ago, are now bought, by the compile
tion of the Pacific railroad, to within a few days
travel and are now practically at our doors as
rivals. The vast business facilities enjoyed by
those States, conducted an unlimited cur
rency oasis, presents startling contrast to the
stagnation resulting from our contracted anti
progressive hard-money theories. California
demands to be placed with all speed upon.
business equality with the States lying to the
eastward of us. Our sraitened financial condi-
tion calls more urgently than ever before for
Legislative action. Business men, with the best
securities, lind it difficult to get bank accommo-
dation. Money, for ordinary business purposes,
cannot be obtained and this artificial strngency
must eventually lead to general disaster unless
the remedy is promptly applied. The first step
toward this much needed monetary reform, we
respectfully submit, should be repeal of the
State law requiring the payment of taxes in
gold and we urgently pray your honorable
bodies TO give this subject your early and favora-
BILE attention.

"Tee hee tee hee p was the audible res
ponse from the sable gent, as he hurried down
stairs.
Dinner came and was dispatched with rel
ish. Jeems and his bride took stroll over the
city seeing the lions and other sights until sup
per time, which being over they retired to their
room. The gas was lit by the servant who re-
ceived bright quarter for his services. Jeems
was the last in bed, and according to the rule
in such cases, he had to put out the light,
which be did with blast from his lungs.
The noise in the street had died away, and
quiet reigned in the Swan house. The young
man or the watch dosed in bis chair. The clerk,
(rather corpulent) was about to retire, when be
thought he smet gas Some one came down
stairs and said he smelt gas. The guests (some
of them woke up and smelt gas. Much against
his WILL the clerk proceeded to find where the
leak was. 1t seemed stronger in the ueighbor-
hood OF the room occupied by the bride and
bridegroom. Clerk concluded to knock at the
door of their room.
Who's thereP' came from inside.
"Open the door the gas is escaping"
g Gas what gas 2" said Jeems, opening the
door
"Why, here in this room. How did you put
your light outF'
" Blew it out of course"
You did big thing" Our clerk came very
near saying bad word, but remembering that
there was lady in the case, or rather in the
bed, he checked his rising temper, and having
lit the gas, proceeded to show Jeems the mys-
terry of its burning as follows:
'You see this little thing here? Well, when
you want to put it out, you give it turn this
way, and when you want to make it lighter you
give it turn this way. Serious consequences
might have resulted if it had not been Giscov-
cred. Now be careful next time"
Much obliged. But how the deuce did /
know the burned stuff was escaping?" responded
Jeems.
@ Didn't you smell t?' asked the clerk.
" Pears to me did smell it )" says Jeems.
" But Lie, I'll be burned eff | didn't think it
was you, kase | never slept with woman
afore."
Well, Jeems, thought it was you that
smelt that way all the time. | was jest a won
derin' eff all men smelt that way. 1t 'peared
strange, but then / didn't know nothin about
it," was the response of Lie, as she turned over
for nap.
The red in our clerks face grew smilingly red
der as it reflected the light from the burning jet,
and roguish twinkle lurked in the corner OF
his eyes, as he turned off the gas and all was
dark and our friends were left alone in their
glory. sound of suppressed mirth was heard
in the reading room for few minutes, and then
all was still.

THE GREAT BILLIARD MATCH.-We Gull the fol-
lowing paragraph from the San Francisco AAa 5
account of the great billiard game between
Deery and Dion, fifteen hundred points up,
carom game, push shots barred:
Deery started out ahead, but he was soon
overtaken and passed by Dion. Then the former
came up and took the lead for short time, but
Dion seized it from him toward the last and near
the close by fine run at the head of the table
opening gap that looked to everybody present
impossible to close. Even betting had run high
before, and now Deerys hackers would have
sold out very cheap. But not so with the
champion. He had nearly 200 points to go, and
his opponent only wanted about 80. Deery now
exhibited the wonderful GOODNESS and nerve
which has marked his playing in previous
matches. By several wonderful shots he
brought the balls near the corner, and made
run of III, and when he only required Il more
his ball was " kissed" into pocket after max
ing shot. Dion WAS unable to bring them into
the string, and by four shots, all exceedingly
difficult ones, Deery made the desired score
When Deery made his last count he threw his
cue down, ran to Dion and shook him hurriedly
by the hand and then attempted to run out of
the building. He was caught by his friends,
who threw their arms aroHnd him, and pulleG
and dragged him about in manner that threat
ened to leave him no clothing and at one time
it looked AS if they would pull his limbs and
head off. They hosted him upon the billiard
table, and for full five minutes it seemed from
the yells and cheers, and the surgng crowd of
excited men around, that the internal regions had
turned loose a legion Of imps.
