DARK DAYS,
Humorous Times in tho Worlds History
When the Sun WAS Isaxkened.

&umerous Times in the worlds History
When the Sun WAS 1,arkened.
The earliest mention of the phe-
aomena referred to in the headline OF
this 'note' appears to he that which
occurred in the year Al, 3. c., about
the time of the death of Julius Cesar
where we read in Plutarch and Die
Cassius that the sun was paler than
usual for a whole year. The great
darkness which lasted two whole days
all over Europe appears to have pre-
ceded the great earthquake of Nj
comedia, which occurred August 22
&. D. 1913. Two years later in all the
eastern provinces OF the Roman en-
pire there was a ozark day." which
was SO dark as to make stars visible
at MONDAY From further descrip-
tons one might consider this the re-
suit of a total eclipse but astrono-
mers say that neither the eclipse OF
March 4, $50. nor that Of August %,
of the same year, was visible in the
countries mentioned. During Alric's
siege of Rome, 400 and 40
A. D., there were several
days las dark as the nights
which preceded and followed them. -
In $50, 567 and 626 we find mention
of long periods Of diminished sun
light. According to Schnurrer, stho
sun darkened ia an alarming manner
on August 10, 1873, without there be-
ing the least possibility of an eclipse
being the cause" The Portuguese
historians record several months OF
diminished sunlight in the year 994,
says the St. Louis Republic, which
terminated by an apparent opening in
the sky from which loud sounds
issued, the noise sounding not unlike
two giants quarrelling." In 1891, on
September 80, (not 81, as given in
some trauslations of Hum boldt's
!. : Cosmos''), the sun turned suddenly
black and remained SO for three hours,
For days after the blackness had dis.
appeared the sun cave out a peculia,
greenish light which occasioned great
alarm. Schnurrer next mentions d
dark day in June, 1871, but astrono.
mers attribute it to the total eclipse
which was visible in thu rraatar bari

take the greatest pains to shut it out

A day or two ago a physician of this

specially dressed woman entered and
desired to speak with him privately. He
granted the request and asked her to
make known her errand. The woman
after some hesitation abruptly inquired:
doctor. what would you give for a
corpse
The question was such an unusual one
that it nonplused the physician. and FOR
the space of minute he was unable to
make reply. Finally he ventured to
inquire whose corpse she wished to dis
pose Of
''Oh. haven't the corpse yet" replied
she, but my husband, who is much
older than ami expect him to die

might wish to purchase a subject
