THE SOLAR CORONA.


y.v Theory Of Its Character Which
Seems Capable OF Demonstration.
The observations made by Prof..
Sch aeberle, Of the Lick Observatory, IN
connection with the eclipse OF slast De-
cember, has led him to PROFOUND an en-
tirely new theory OF the solar corona
According to his observations the corona
is caused by light omitted and refectea
from streams OF matter elected from the
sun by forces which in general act
along lines L:-nal to the surface
These forces are more active near the
center Of each sun spot zone, and owing
to the change OF the position OF the OBJ
server with reference to the plane Oh
the SUMS equator, tho perspective oveI-
Tapping and interlacing OF the two sets
of streamers at these zones causes tho
observed apparent change In the eype
of the corona.
Having had this idea suggested tc
him in the course Of his investigations
Prof. schaeberle has lit upon mode
OF mechanically demonstrating 1t Hav
ing stuck number OF needles in bal
to represent the streams OF matter ne
nIaced tho model In beam Of parallel
rays and allowed Its shadow to fall upon
n screen, the result being that indeh
mite variety OF forms, similar to the
coronal structure, can be produced BY
simply revolving the model. Whethe
the torms that are seen aeco.ding a.
tho observer ia above, below or in thu
plane Of the suns equator, agree will
those thai should be seen, has yet TO b
proved. but II there is such agreement
it will 20 far in the direction OF confirm
ing this novel view Of tho suns corona

EplsoN'S ENTERPRISE.


An Idea That Fairly Eoiipses the Arabian
nights Droam.
II has been observed by astronomers
that the appearance OF spots on tho sun
arc coincident with meteorological phe-
nomena, and that cyclones, tornadoes'
water.spouts and earthquakes are more
freauent or are entirely coincident with
the solar occurrences. 1t is also ascer-
tanned that these spots arc the result OF
bodies falling into tho sun, and that
the disturbance affects tho telegraph
wires on this planet Mr. Edison, con.
sidering all these data, has conceived
an idea of the most marvellous enter
prise, one that fairly eclipses any
Arabian Nights dream, or the
wishes of Fortunatus. 1t Is the project
of making it possible to hear tho sounds
which the falling bodies make on tho
sun. In New Jersey there is hull COR
taing vast tons OF magnetic Orc This
he has encircled with many miles oi
wire, and proposes by means Of eloc'
tric cnrrents, TO register on this appa-
l ratus the disturbance, as the vibrations
| affect our atmosphere, and by connect
i
ing these wires with gigantic ph9no
graph, listen to the sounds that occur In
the suns atmosphere. The interest
with which this experiment will be
watched is intense. II 1t succeeds
there is evory reason to believe 1t may
be carried out to further details
at present unrovealed. Mr.. Edisor
is demonstrating his possession o.
the most wonderful genius OF the age
One says genius advisodly, for 1t is no
the natural evolution Of scientific train
ing Of the learning OF college and labor
atory, but 1t is rather in the line OF ab
solute inspiration. lie seems to DO th'
medium through which great forcos arr
enabled TO manifest themselves II u
not an exaggeration to call many OF hi
ideas sublime. 1t Is noticeable, too
that he accomplishes the maximum Q
work with the minimum OF fatigue. l
is as II he might say: mot ], but th
mower that works through me-" lie
being led on to still greater and NOR
important undertakings, and that thi
may not appropriately bs called tn

as to Thomas Edison.-Boston Budse

TIA Pit ON No style and Loved to Poke
Red.Bot Fire.
Ericsson never changed his style OF
dress from the clothing which he wore
when he landed in this country to tns
time Of his death. He wore wo0ien
knitted underclothins and very long
stockings, which were nearly an inch
thick, both summer and winter. and
when his friends won't through the
house after his death his clothing was
found rolled up in small bundles each
one labeled with its contents ana
slowed away in number OF small lock-
ers he had in his room. He allowod uo
| one to Interfere with hi, clothing anu
was most methodieal in taking care Oh u.
The case OF follow countryma@ Oh
his who was in distress, came TO MS ears
nearly twenty years since ana no M
stantly helped tho man out OF MS
trouble.
Subseauen he found out that the
mans birthday fell on tho samN date as
his own. He made no memorandum
either OF the mans name or add ress, en'
every year he drew q check for $loo,
which he sent on every anniversary ol
his birthday to the poor stranger, ana
tho stubs OF these checks were found
among his papers
He was careless In money matters
although good business man In many
ways. His secretary usedto notfy nun
when his bank balance was getting low
when he would dictate letter to the
!. Government or to Mr.. Delamater Tor
remittance on account OF royalties due
him, although he never troubled about
their payment except as he needed the
money for current expenses.
Ericsson had q habit OF poking Inc
7 fire in his big open-hre crate when hi
was thinking out some abstruse problem
He wore out so many fire irons tina
for many years before his death he usee
TO order pokers Of wrought iron aoou
five feet long, with which he woui'
pouud the fire and CRATE till the poker
wore away by being constantly kept III
use while at white heat
He bought them by tho dozen at
time, and when no was sick, shortly be
fore his death, his physician ordere'
him to take broth, corn-starch and othe
light food.
He Immediately ordered two dozel
|, wooden spoons, and would sit over TN
stove stirring his food himself until th'
snoon got what he considered too oil
IN for use, when he would throw 1t ava
