the present number in two eight mem.

TRANSIT OF MERCURY.
Interesting Observations Made by
Henry c. Wayne.

u nsiy HSs
Rochester, N. Y, Nov 12-Henry c.
Mayne, who is we'll known in scientific
circles through his writings upon sun
spots, made an interesting observation
of the transit of Mercury. Mr.. Mayne
says:
Soon after the second contact what ap-
peared to be a brownish, transparent, oval
shadow, just in advance of the planet
seen by two persons independently. The
observer first saw this shadow and tried
without success to eliminate it by read
justment to the eye. Without stating what
he had seen another person was asked to
observe the planet on the suns disc. The
second observer spoke of the brown
shadow and inquired il the first observer
had seen it.
when an affirmative answer was given
the subject was discussed and further
experiment were tried to ascertain II
the shadow was an optical illusion. This
transparent shadow through which the
surface of the sun could be family seen,
Continued to advance just ahead of the
planet as it moved towards the suns
meridian. The shadow was visible with
@ higher power
The first and most obvious explana
tiop is that this effect was produced by
unequal reflection caused by Swifter cur
rents of unequal density in the upper
atmosphere; the same cause has op-
Grated to make the suns limb appear 10
quite adequate. because the planet itself
seemed perfectly round and sharp at the
time the shadow was most clearly vi.si-
BILE. Spots on the sun We're also well
defined.
Another possible explanation is that

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1894-11-13

tempt was made to focus on the planet,
but it was found that the edges of the
planets disc were sharpest when the
sun spots were in good focus. This ex-
PLANTATION seems also to be inadequate. :.
What could produce the appearance OF
transparent brown SPOT just ahead OF
the planet and touching its disc as pro-
jected upon the bright surface of the
sun ? One other explanation presents 1t
self: large gaseous satellite of Mer-
curry, invisible in Mercurys blazing
light during elongations, but of sutfi-
Gent density to cut a part of the suns
light from the observer during transit
and give that light reddish brown color.
1t is quite probable that Mercury may
have picked up such a satellite, as many
gaseous visitors pass around the sun
each year and go off into space. Mer-
cury's mean distance from the sun is
about 10000 miles, and he makes a COM
plete revolution around the sun in about
eighty days in this rapid motion many
opportunities for picking up stray mat
ter may occur. So a gaseous satellite or
considerable dimensions could be easily
accounted for"

New York, Nov. 12.-The excise laws
have begun to receive some attention
from Republicans who disucss the prob
lens which confront their victorious;
party. One Of the first utterances in any
sense public on the matter since the Re-
that of Mr.. Chauncey NJ. DepeE. In a
letter to a morning paper, Mr.. DepeW
said:
politics Ii this is done we shall win by
the Germans and return New York
permanently to the Republican column.
Let us make haste slowly"
Mr.. Depew was asked what sugges-
tons he would make as to changes in
the excise law Of this state.
When | wrote that letter, saying that
the excise law should be amended so as

that state as [ have been told by Sen
atoI Sherman and other public men, has
out of politics. They have an excise sys-
tenn Which is satisfactory solution of
the question and that no member of the
legislature dare hint at a change. To
do SO would be like signing his own po-
Htical death warrant. Ole essential fea-
ture is this:
1.-The license fees ara turned over to
the various municipalities and go into the
general fund of that municipality The
result is that the taxes, which must be
raised by the ordinary methods, to meet
the municipal expenses, are greatly re
duced. The trouble in this state now is
that the fees are SO small that the ag-
gregate in many places does not amount
to much if turned into the committee
on treasury and thus made of benefit to
the taxpayer. BY making the license
high enough and by putting the proceeds
in the treasury of each town or city, a
condition satisfactory to each municipal
ty would be reached. Once. let the law
be passed and it would be an object for
each city and town to let it remain I'M
