MORE ABOUT MARS.
Several Valuable Papers on Late
Observations.
The Conclusions Reached by Professor Holden
at San Francisco and Professor
Pickering in Peru.

NoRTHFIELD, Mimi, Oct 3.--The Octo-
Der number of Astronomy, scientific maya
zine edited by Professor Payne of Garlic
ton college, contains several valuable
papers on the recent observations of Mars.
The first is by Professor Holden, who.
under date of Aug. Is, explains the work
of the big Lick telescope in California,
giving his conclusions as follows: 81 may
briefly state my Individual conclusions as
derived from comparison of my own OBJ
servations of Mars at opposition Of
that changes in the surface features of
Mars as we now know them are probably
not capable of being completely explained
by terrestrial analogous. What are we to
make of the lake called Fons Juyentae, for
example, which as single object in 1877,
which was not visible in 1879 and
which has been both single and
double during the present year? Is 1t con-
ceivable that an observer on Mars examin-
ing the earth in any part OF it's recent his
tory would have seen such amazing topo
graphic changes as we this year
observed not to speak of the
changes from opposition to opposi-
ton it appears from careful examination
a
which we owe 10 Professo .-s5e5iaparelli
and others up to the present time will
make it evident there are enormous diff
cuties in the way of completely explaining
the recorded phenomena by terrestrial
analogies unless we also introduce serious
notifications.
Professor Pickering, of Harvard college
writes under date from Arequipa. Peru
Aug. l, 1892. He says:
'In seeking to explain the changes
would merely point out the fact tina
changes occurred at time when the snow
was melting with great rapldity; that {
dark channel suddenly appeared July IL
which had not been seen at last previous
observation of this region on June Ii
that il shortly disappeared again and few
days after this event the nortnean sex
largely increased in area temporarily, or a
least that its southern shores became mucl
darker. / think these changes cannot b,
ex planned by arean cloud effect We hav'
already observed large whitish patche!
upon the planet which undergo certain
changes in shape and extended from nigh
to night. We are now studying them care
fully, although we find them rather Difficult
of observation. These changes we are in
clined to refer to as clouds, although tn
matter is not as simple as it might at frs
appear If these effects are really due t
clouds, they are quite different Ii
character from other changes noted.

THE FLORIDA ELECTION.
State, County and Precinct officers WIN be
Elected Today.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Oct BY the
general election law passed in 1889. the
state and county elections in Florida were
separated from the national and congress
sional elections This ia the first year in
which the separation clause of the new
statute is operative. On Tuesday Florida
elects q governor, secretary Of state. one
Justice of the supreme court, attorney
general comptroller, treasurer, super
intendent of public construction and
commissioner of agriculture. All the
counties choose members of the lower
house of the legislature and sixteen out
of thirty-two senatorial districts choose
state senators. All counties choose county
officers There are two full state tickets
Ia the field, those of the Democrats aud of
the Peoples party. The former is headed
by W. II. Mitchell for governor; the latter
by Alonzo P Baskin. The PrOhibitionists
have candidate for governor, N. J. Haw-
ley, bat this party is not likely 10 poll over
800 votes in the entire state The Repub-
licens have made no nominations this year,
either of national electors, congressman,
state or county officers. The reason is the
alleged unfairness Of the present election
laws passed by the Democratic Legislature.
An agreement is said to be entered into by
which the Republican voters will be
thrown for the Peoples party candidates,
but as a general thing the Republicans are
not qualified for election by registering
and paying poll taxes.

THE GERMAN STARTERS.

riders started this morning. Altogether
there are 1909 Germans in the race or the
horses taking part in the race, nine are
English thoroughbreds, fourteen Eng
lish half breeds, five Hungarian, one
Russian, and the rest Prussian
horses. Up to the present time only scant
reports are received of the progress of the
riders. Cold. wet weather and thick fog
make the conditions bad for riding.
The Standards Vienna correspondent
says: 1.-The ride is turning out to be q
senseless sacrifice of horses and riders.
Already twenty Germans aud fifteen
Austrians have been disabled, and every
hour brings fresh news of broken down
horses and injured riders. owing chiefly to
the intense desire to go in three or three
and one-half days what with proper regard
to the condition of the animals could not be
done in less than Eve days.
