attracted wide attention from students o
the skies and the people generally. Dur-
ing the days OF recent weeks the sun
seems to have been obscured BY q thin veil
of dull leaden hue which, as the sun re.
ceded toward the horizon, became more
luminous, then yellow, then orange, then
rcd; and, as night settled down upon the
earth, dullpurple. At first it was thought
these appearances were ordinary sunset
reflections Of light but il is now pretty Ger.
tain that they are either the misty sub
stance OF the tail OF some unseen comet, in
which the earth is enyeloped, or q sur
rounding stratum of world dust o, very
small meteors. Professor Brooks OF the
Red House Observatory, Phelps, \. y, has
turned his telescope upon these objects
and discovered what he thinks are myrisds
Of telescope meteors. II il is unorganiEed
world dust, or decomposed vspors, as the
Democrat and Chronicle, OF Rochester, y.
V. remarks: How is this matter 10 be
disposed Of? Will it settle and form a de.
poSit urou the earth, or remain q partial
opaque shell about tae earth 10 cut oil
portion OF the suns light upon it?''
Whatever the mystery is, there Is no
denying that SOME very strange forces are
ST work in the upper airs. The terrible
tornadoes and cyclones which have swept
our oSu country, and the fearful vo.ca,
noes ard earthquakes which have destroy eG
so many cities and thousands of people
the TIDAL waves which mysterlousy rise
and fall on coasts hitherto uayeEei by
