THE SOLAR CORONA.

New Theory Of Its Character Which
Seems Capable of Demonstration.
The observations made by Prot
Schaeberle, 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 emitted and reflected
from streams OF matter elected from the
sun by forces which in general act
along lines normal 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 of
the suns equator, the perspective over
tapping and interlacing of the two sets
of streamers at these zones causes the
observed apparent change in the type
Of the corona.
Having had this idea suggested to
him in the course of his investigations,
Prof. Schaeberlc has lit upon q mode
of mechanically demonstrating it Hav-
ing stuck a number of needles in ball
to represent the streams of matter, he
placed tho model in beam Of parallel
rays and allowed its shadow to fall upon
screen, the result being that indefi-
mite variety Of forms. similar to the
coronal structure, can be produced by
simply revolving the model. Whether
the forms that are seen according as
the observer is above. below or in the
plane Of the suns equator. agree with
those that should be seen, has yet to be
proved. but if there is such agreement,
it will 60 far in the direction Of confirm.
ing this novel view of the suns corona.

Tho BlAclkfoot Indians.

Years and years ago the original Ia
Their of the Blackfeet had three sons.
The eldest was named Peeganah, or the
rich man. The second was called
Keno, or the bloody man. The third
son was not named. Nothing but i'll.
luck followed the unnamed son and he
was looked upon as Jonah. One day
no told his father that his misfortune
was due to the fact that he had no
name. His father, who was about to
light his pipe with piece Of burning
wood. drew the charred stick across the
boys foot A black mark was left on
the sons moccasin. When the father
saw that he said: "You shall be called
Blackfoot" From that time Blackfoot
had the best Of luck and when he
passed away the Blackfeet were the
most powerful tribe of Indians in the
world.-Journal Of American Folk

AN ACTORS ADVENTURE

How tho Doyon OF tho Coincide Fran
caise Saved His Lie.
NJ. Got the doyen of the Coincide
Franchise, has given to the public some
interesting and amusing anecdotes of his
life as an actor. In 1894 he will have
completed his fifty years Of service in
the house of Moliere. At the expira-
ton of that period he intends to leave
the stage altogether and pass tho re-
mainder of his days in the quiet village
of Boulainvilliers, where he has lived
for q considerable time. NJ Got has all
the appearance of a rural cure-white
hair and clean-shaven face. This eccie-
siastical aspect nearly cost him his life
once. It was during the commune. He
was living in London, whittier the MEM
bers of the Comedie Franchise had fed
for safety, but found it necessary to go
to Paris for day or two to arrange
some private affairs. This done, he was
about to leave the French capital
again. when he fell into the hands
Of the Communists. "Who are your"
they demanded. 81 am Got the doyen
of the Comedie Franchise. and I am
going to London" ''You Got? Go along
with you! We know you very we'll You
are the cure Of Sainte Marie of Batig-
nolles-" Got denied the impeachment
theoretically, and pointed out that he
had no tonsure, but all to no purpose.
He was marched Of with others to .
cellar to await the decision Of court
martial. In the evening an officer and
several soldiers took him out Of this
pestilential den and told him: ''6ince
you are strolling player you can amuse
as little. Give US recitatAon!" Got
did his very best and 50 pleased his
captors that the officer said: "Ah, you
may be Got after all! You can make Oh
as soon ~ you like" Got took the hint
and managed to get back to London.
The officer in command Of the soldiers
was IN Italian. AMI n. Got attributes
his deliverance partly 70 the fact that

a woNoERFuL RIDE.
From Meadoxa - Chill Through Uspallats
on . Mule.

From MeRdo1s - Chill Through Uspallses
ON . Mule.
The passage Of the Ospallatta is made
most easily during January and Febru-
ary, when the snow has disappeared
from the lower mountain slopes and the
river levels are lowest From April to
November snow-storms are constantly
met with, the bride paths are slippery
and the discomforts and periis of the
Journey are multiplied. Mountaineers
and mail-couriers make the passage
even in the most Indictment weeks Of
winter, travelling on foot over tho
Cumbre. The scenery In the winter
time, when the abysses are ingulfed
with snow and the rugged mountain
walls are incased in ice, must be of I'M
rivaled grandeur, but q prudent trsv-
eler will be content to make the jour.
ney in midsummer. Even when the
road is dry there Is constant source
OF danger, since a mule, with charac-
teristic perversity, persists in travelling
along the outer edge Of the slope on the
edges of the precipices. and it is I'M
safe, as we'll as useless, to attempt
to make him swerye from his self-regu-
lated course. When the road is coated
over with ice one must be q hardy
mountaineer in order to rise superior
to the perils of precipitous chasms and
deeply-sunken river bottoms. The
sense of loneliness increases. moreover,
when few travellers are on the high
way, and one is confronted with the SOL
emn stiffness and gloomy grandeur Of
the Andes In the midsummer the pass
ing of mule trains imparts animation
and variety to the journey. The pictur-
esque ponchos-l regret to say that the
native garment has been largelyreplaced
by cheap and inferior European wrap,
an imitation sleeveless shawl-cape-
and the bright fantastic patterns of the
neck-gear worn by the guides andmount-
aineers add a welcome touch to the
bar rem edges of bridle-paths. When
fellow-travelers are met 1t is q
sudden refreshing contact of human
companionship. Smiles and ''buenos
dios" are exchanged, and the file of the
passing cavalcade is watched as it dis
appears in the zigzag of the road. HUI
man society is all the more welcome
from the absence of animal life In the
mountains heard the twitter Of only
one bird in the course of the five days
ride. That was wee thing. only half
as large as swallow. The guide-book
represents condors as perched on the
heights of the most dangerous passes,
where traveller will be pitched head
long a thousand feet into abysses II the
mule goes wrong. The closest approach
to the great Andean condor coming un-
der my eye is the Atlantic mosquito,
which has followed me all the way from
tho Rio to the Plato and across the
continent 1t is carnivorous bird,
eager at all times to strike to the very
marrow of human bones.-Cor. N. Y.
