COMING ECLIPSE OF THE SUN.
4 PhenomenUn to Re Seer. in This countr
on the First of tho Yenr.

4 Phenomenon TO BE Seen In This Country
on the First of tho Yehr.
NEW YoRK, Nov. 2O.-Mr Garrett T,
serviss, the Secretary of the American
Astronomical Society, was asked to-day
what there was peculiar in the eclipse Of
the sun, which is to occur on January l
next and for Ithe observation of which
Harvard University has already fitted
out costly expedition to go to the Pa.
ci6c coast.
"well, in the first place." said Mr..
serviss, ian eclipse OF the sun is always
in the highest degree interesting, be-
cause there Is hardly any phenomenon
OF the heavens at once so startling, so
beautiful and so awe-inspiring, in order
to see total eclipse you must be some.
where along a line only few miles
wide, from which the moon at
the moment that it comes between the
sun and the earth will be ex-
actly in line between the eye Of
the observer and the centre OF the
sun. Then the moon for few
minutes will completely cover the snn,
shutting off It's light and heat so effeCtu-
ally that chickens go TO roost and the
observers frequently shiyer with the
sudden lowering OF the temperature Of
the air. Unfortunately the line OF to-
tality, which is never the same for two
eclipses, has q way Of selecting remote
regions OF the earth to be favored with
the wonderful and magnificent views
that 1t has to offer, and on this occasion
the United States is peculiarly favored
in having even part Of the line run
ming across It's territory.
"The path OF the total eclipse, as it is
technically called, will begin near the
centre OF the group Of Aleutian islands,
which stretch across from Alaska to
Kamtchatka, and sweeping southwark
and eastward over the Northern Pacific
ocean, will reach the continent a little
north Of San Francisco. 1t will con.
tinue on in a broad curve
turning noEthward and cross,
ing Nevada, Idaho and Montana,
will end far up in Canada about hall
way between the western end OF Lake
Superior and Hudson Bay. While only
observers along this line will see the sur
totally eclipsed, partial eclipse will bt
seen all over the United States. Herr
in New York the eclipse will be Just be
ginning at sunset. The further Wesi
you get the better chance you will have

THE PARNHLL INQUIRY.
Further Testimony for the Times
Against the Land League.
EDITOR COMMITS CONTEMPT
And Will be Proceeded Agalnst-.-All
the Evidence Fails to Show the
Leagues Connection with
outragcs In ireland.

LONDON, Nov. 2O-The Parnell Com
mission resumed its sittings to-day.
Attorney General Webster, cousei for
the Times, complained OF the difficulty
experienced in bringing forward wit
nesses from county Kerry. he called
the Judges attention to au article in the
Kerry Sentinel. Mr.. Edward Harring-
toms paper, which stated that the Judges
composing the Parnell Commission were
showing signs OF measles now, although
at the opening OF the inquiry they had
appeared to be spotless. The judges
were creatures Of the conspiracy entered
into by the Government and the Times,
and were maniiestiy unable to veil their
prejudices. The Attorney General APP
pealed to the court to tuke action in the
matter, rs such publications tended to
defeat justice and amounted to the
grossest contempt.
Mr.. Reed, in behalf of Mr.. Harring-
ton, complained that no notice OF
charge OF this character had been given
them and it was absolutely impossible
to make an answer at present. He ask
ed that the matter be adjourned until TO
morrow. Presiding Justice Hammer and
the Attorney General both agreed to this
and the matter stood over. The exami-
nation OF witnesses was then resumed.
Farmer Culiaty, Of Castle Island, Couh-
ty Kerry, testified that because he had
served notices on tenants in 1882, two
men visited him and one OF them struck
him with a spade and the other shot
him in the leg, The leg had TO be am
putated. He was afterward boycotted.
On cross examination he said the quar-
ters OF the nearest branch OF the League
was six miles distant from his farm.
He considered that the rents throughout
Kerry were too high. He denied that
the two men who attacked him were
relatives OF servant girl whom he had
wronged.
Constable Mccarthy testified that he
searched the house Of man named
Mcmahon, who was treasurero branch
Of the League, and found number OF
papers.
4 letter was here produced and hand
ed to the clerk to be marked for the pur-
pose Of Identification, but was not put in
as evidence. Sir Charles Russell, coun-
sci for the Parnellites, asked to see the
letter. Attorney General Webster OBJ
jected, saying that counsel was not en-
titled to see It until it WIS read.
Other witnesses from Kerry were then
examined, all of whom attributed the
outrages in that county to the League.
A laborer named Williams, testified
that he had been fired at by captain OF
moonlighters, and said that placard
had been posted in various places, offer:
ing 500 pounds to any one who would
shoot him and his employer, who had
taken an evicted farm.
On cross-examination, however, none
OF the witnesses succeeded in connecting
the League with any ofthe outrages they
had referred to. Adjourned.

NAMING THE BABIES.

Happy Parents who Have Honored HAI
rison..Three Sets OF Thplets Named 70
Him.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 2O.-The President
elect put in the day hard at work in re
ducing his stock of unanswered letters
While he was reading his mail this af
ternoon, he came across blank circular
sent out by Philadelphia newspaper
offering a prize Of $50 to the person who
would till in the correct names Of Gen
Harrison's cabinet. As he read the
circular it seemed TO suggest an idea fol
the remark: 81 think could win thai
prize, but l won't try for il"
Among the numerous other letters
answered by General Harrison to-day
were forty.four replies to parents who
had informed him they had named their
babies Benjamin Harrison" With one
or two exceptions, these namesakes were
all born since General Harrison's cleo
tion. The exceptions were two sets Of
triplets, boys, born shortly before, the
election, the parents in each case naming
one for General Harrison, one for Presi-
dent Cleveland, and the other for the
father. Acknowledgement to the pa
rents OF third set OF triplets, similarly
named, was made a couple OF weeks
prior TO the election.
Among the presents received by Gen.
Harrison to-day was q richly bound vol
ume containing illustrations Of charac-
ters' taken from Munkascy's famous
painting, "Christ Before PLATE" which
happens now to be on exhibition in this
city. The present was from John Wan
of Philadelphia.

Tbs Norfolk & Western railroad has
perced that region aud put life in it, On
the lin, OF this road, on Elk Horn Greek,
MsDowrll county, eight collieries have
been started. On the line Of the same
road in Mercer other important coal en-
,erprises have been undertaken since
1851. 1t is not strange that these works
bring an accession TO the Republican
party, for by far the greater part OF the
men employed iu them vote the Repub.
lean ticket. BY 1892 the Democratic
managers will have their eyes further
opened, forthe work Of building up this
rich region is only fairly begun.

Mercer, nor to the section in which these
counties lie. The following table of

Of boiler inspectors to form a national
organization met here this morning, del
egates from nearly every State in the
country being present. Mayor McCallin,

Of boiler inspection and to prevent the
employment OF incompetent engineers.
The convention will be in session all

we're 2,267 boiler explosions, in which

membership caused lively discussion,
and it was finally decided to restrict the
membership to boiler inspectors.
