The recent mysterious appea ances follow
Ing sunset and preceding sunrise have at
tracte wide attention from students of the
skies anu the peone genera ly. During the
days Of recent weeks the sun seems t. have
been ub cured by a thin veil of a dull lea len
hue which, as the sun recoded toward the
horizon, became more luminous then yellow,
Tn n Grange, then red and, as night settled
Gown uron the earth, drll purl lie. At first
it vas thought these app sarances were or
binary sunset reflections of lig t. but it is
now retly certain that they are either the
misty substance of the tail of some uns en-
comet, in which the ear h is envelor @ I, or a
surrounding stratum of world dust or very
man meteors. Professor Brooks, of
the Red House Observatory, Phelps,
New York, has turn his tele-
SEQ upon those objects and discovered
What he thinks are myriads of telescope
meteors. If it is pnorc au2ed world dust, or
dcconposed vanors, as the Democrat and
Chronicle, of Rochester, n. Y, remarks:
How is this matter to be dispose of win
it settle and form deposit upon the earth,
or remain a parti Opaque shell about the
earth TO cut off portion of the suns light
upon it ~
Whatever the mystery is, there is no deny
ing that some very strange forces are at
work in the upper airs The tfrribe lorna
