The Solar Eclipse I'm March.


II is quite possible that this ecIipse viii ~,
is given as an annular one in the Epheue-
rides, may be total for an instant on the
North Pacific ocean in longitude 40 I6 west
OF Greenwich and latitude $3.50 north or
near this position it may prove one of those
rare phenomena, characterized in our text
books as Total without continuance" The
central lire trRVerseS the southern and
largest island of the Sand wich group where
t1e eclipse Will be annular for a few seconds
AT point In longitude 80 50 west. latitude

(dlrectl and the annulus is formed
accounting 10 the Nauli, a Almanac ele-
ments at 10h. 49m. los, and Confines ten
seconds. This point is little south of
kaayarOa, by the Admiralty Chart and
close to the spot where the monument 10 Can't
Cook was erected; the central eclipse leave
this island, Hawaii, near MaDiene aiso
marked on the Admiralty Chart OF this group.
The eclipse will be central and annular also
IN vancouver Island and British Columbia
The central line appears TO enter Vancouver
at Refuge Cove, Sydney Inlet, leaving it at
orange POINT, Duncan Bay. Whencei is course
is 10 George Point, British Columbia. In
vancouver Island the annulus may continue
seven or eight seconds, being formed about
Oh. 2im. p. m. local mean time. At New
Westminster, British Columbia, calculation
gives large partial eclipse commencing at
lin. 22m. a. m, and ending at 2h. 3Y o. m,
local times, magnitude 0.95; here the first i'm
preston OF The moon upon the suns disk is
made at ~ degrees from his north point

on the track OF the central lire over these

The above names of points trayerSed nv the
