1t will be seen that the moon enters
the earth shadow before sunset, but
when tie total eclipse begins, at 8 h. 80
IN. p. 1t will be dark enough TO watch its
progress through the most interesting
stage. The moon will not be entirely
lost to sight when totally immersed in
the earth's dark shadow. She will shine
family, with lurid, copper colored
light, thus giving an unearthly aspect to
the surrounding landscape. This light is
refracted into the shadow by the earth's
atmosphere. 1t varies greatly in differ
ent eclipses, depending upon the guam
tty of clouds and vapor in that portion
of the atmosphere where the sunlight
must Craze in order to reach the moon.
At the time of totslitY the planet Sat-
urn having recently emerged from cons
tact will hang just off the edge of the
moon shining in the dim, weird light with
a peculiar radiance. Should the evening
be clear. the spectacle will be a memora-
BILE one, and for several evenings follow
ing the near proximity of the moon to
Saturn will attract the attention of all
who ever look at the heavens.
