An Eclipse Will Usher in the New

An ECLIPSE w Ill OSneF III iuS NEW
YEAR.
There will be all eclipse of the sun
this afternoon, and in st. Paul and VI
cinity the observation will be first vlsl-
BILE at nine minutes and one second past
8 o'clock. At this time the moon Will
pass between the sun and the earth.
and darkness will prevail for little
over two hours. The darkest PERIOD
will be at 4:l9. when the sun will be
seen as a slender crescent. Observers III
st. Paul will not be privileged to see the
end of the eclipse, as the sun Will set at
4:43 and the moon will not have cleared
the SUMS disc until 5:22. The greatest
duration of totality in the eclipse Will
he two minutes and three seconds,
which will be experienced in Callfor-
MIA. This eclipse is not OF very great
Importance in an astronomical light, al
though it is expected that some addi-
tional facts will be obtained regarding
the SUMS corona. Under ordinary cir
cumstances the corona is Invisible, the
RAYS of the sun completely obscurlns
everything else in the neighborhood..
but when these lays are shut on
by an intervening medium IN
space, the moon being the only
such known to earthllngs, the
corona appears in the form OF a luihl-
nous haze around the suns disc. some
times extending into space distance
equal to two or three times the sun
diameter. Beyond the haze great
streamers often shoot out into the ether.
These phenomena are best observed at
the time of the total eclipse, for then
only are all of the rays OF light from the
sun shut out from the eye. Photogra-
ply will play an important part In the
observations, and number OF parties,
thoroughly equipped with Photographic
apparatus, have journeyed to the Pa
cite slope, most of them having
California as an objective point.
The best equipped party is that which

COUPLINGS FOR CARS.
Railroad Officials Desire Legisla-
ton by Congress-,

Railroad car couplings will form an
important part in the recommendations
for legislation from the state railroad
commission, who recently issued cir
cuiar asking for information relating to
automatic couplings. They desired to
know,i in particular. whether the adoption
of safety couplings might be left to the
voluntary action of the railroad COM
panies, or should legislation be invoked
to prevent unreasonable delay and to
insure uniformity within reasonable
limits.
General Manager Egan, of the Chi
cago, st. Paul & Kansas City railroad,
writes: 1.-THE adoption of al invention
that would give greater security TO life
and limb would. in my estimation, be re-
ceived with favor by all classes of Off
GERS and employees who are engaged in
railroad work. The many theories that
have been so far recommended when
placed in actual service have proved
defective. A simpler, cheaper, more
durable and effective device is looked
is looked for. To invoke legislation at
the present time would be a mistake.
When the 10 & sought-for autnmatic
coupler has been found many roads will
adopt it without compulsion, others will
follow, and then the powers of the legis-
lature should be invoked to have all
follow, adhering to a uniform stand
ard"
Replies were also received from the
Minneapolis, st. Paul and Sault Ste.
Marie railroad, Chicago and North
western railroad, Chicago, st. Paul and
Omaha railroad, of this state, and they
deprecate state legislation on this queS-
ton. All advocate that if legislation is
necessary it should come from the
national assembly. Chicago d East
ern Illinois, Wabash, Old Colony and
Lake Shore railroads also reply to the
circular, and each favor action by the
national legislature in the interests of
uniformity. Several of the railroad
managers are in favor OF the matter
being left entirely in the hands of the
railroads. believing that whenever a
cheap and efficient coupling apparatus
is brought out it will be speedily
adopted by each company.
