What is an Eclipse?

The following interesting account of "Whai is sn Eclipse" is taken from The El PAso Times:
 Of all the phsnomena Of the heavens, there are none which engage the sttsn- tion of mankind more than eclipses. In early ages they were regarded As alarm ing dsviations from established laws and tokens of devine displsasure.
 It is sad that in China the prediction and observation of eehpses are made 8 matter of state policy in order So impress the ignorant with the wisdom of ihe rulers. eOme tribes of Indians have imagined that the moon had beed wound cd ID 6 quarrel and others that be was about 10 be swallowed by a huge nsb. Eollpsss are caused either by the shR- dow of one body being cast upon another or by a dark body passing over a bright one. In SD eclipse of the sun the shsd- dow of the moon passes over the earth and the sun i5 entirely or partly obscur- ed 10 observers on that part of the earth where the shadow falls. In an eclipse of the moon the moon comes into the shadow of the earth and is dsFkensd be- cause the sunlight by which it shines is wholly or partly out oh. Hence an eclipse of the moon can occur only when thelssun earth and moon are in 6 line and the earth in toe middle or st full moon. The reason that an eclipse does not occur st every full moon Is that the plane ofthe moons orbit and the plane of the esrth's orbit in,srsset ct an angle of five degrees SO that the three bodies do not often come in line when the moon pssses. There can never be more than three lunar eclipses in . year.
 rHR DURATION
 of total lunar eelipses varies from . few miuuteF to nearly two hours, the length depending upon the aesrness vi,h which the moon's center comes inta line with the esnters of the earth and sun. The earth's shadow where the moon passes through ib has a diameter about equal 10 twice the diameter of the moon, .snd ss the moon travels distance equal to her diameter in about sn hour 10 follows that e total eclipse cannot lsst more than about two hourL. The phrase of the moon entering The penuntrs" is the besinniDg of the eclipse when the moon begins to enter ths esrth's shs- dow 30 that portion of the sun's light is shut of from . portion of the moon. The naked eye cannot detect hhis phrase however, and not till the light Of ihs sun is entirely cut of from some par, of the noon, doos the dsrkening of the moons disk begin Co be clearly peroep- table. If ihe eclipse is only partial that par. eclipssd appears entirely black. Bu, if the eclipse becomes total the moon can be seen shining with red ooppery light. This light is not received by the moon directly from the sun but Is sun. light refrscted by the earshs stmos- phers, just ss the rays of light arc bent when thrown into water. The eclipse begins on the east of the moon and passes westward because of the moons eastward motion in her orbit, the mo ton of which csuses her to rise nearly An hour later each evening.

That bad men get into thelr organization is unavoidable, csnrches do not even escape ibis, aud the orssni- Ea,ion as a whole should not be held re- sponsible for the misdeeds of the eFil minded few.
