CORRESPONDENCE
Letter From the Red Hill Sec
ton.

We have been having very
good revival at Red Hill church
during the past week. Rev. Thos
E. Seago came up from Vaucluse
to conduct the services, and gave
us some very effecti.e sermons.
While there were only two receiv-
ed into the church for baptism,
and two restored to the fellowship
of the church, yet much encour-
agement is felt on account of the
interest displayed by the members
in leaving their crops and attend
ing the meetings.
Rev. Wm.. Hart has been called
to the pasrorate of. the church and
it is expected that he will accept.
He will also have charge of the
school.
The candidates for the county
Offices were out in full force, and
did some effective work.
The crops in this section are
generally good.
Miss Bessie Faulkner, who has
been confined to her bed for sever
al weeks with inflammatory rheu-
matism, is improving.

TO STUDY THE HEAVENS.
Lowell Observatory to Go "a Mexico
From Arizona.
New York Tribune.

The Lowell astronomical observatory,
which was established at Flagstaff. Ariz.
in 1894 for the study of planets. especially
Mars. is In process of removal TO the City
of Mexico. The lenses of the great tele-
scope have been removed and the machine
Is being taken down TO be shipped in a few
days. The object in going south is to Sc
cure good views during the winter months,
and the experts who have studied the
question say this can be obtained in the
Mexican plateau, which lies within the
tropics and has an elevation of about 500
feet over the sea level.
The observatory was in active operation
at Flagstaff during 1894 and 1895. and many
hundreds of fine drawings were made of
Mars. the results showing that our neigh
boring planet is severed with an extensive
system of canals, arranged in artificial
manner as If the work of intelligent be-
ings. These researches were made by
Professors Lowell. Pickering and Douglas.
and have attained worldwide fame. Pro-
fessor Lowelrs discoveries induced him to
order new 24-inch telescope from Alvan
Clark Sons with a view OF prosecuting
these studies still further The new tele-
scope has been in use since August 1896,
and many new discoveries have been
made The work has been conferred upon
the planets and southern stars. Profess
sors Lowell and Douglas have continued
their observations of Mars. while Profess
sor Lowell and Mr.. Drew have worked on
Mercury and Venus during the daytime.
In the clear air of the afternoon these
planets have shown conspicuous markings
and the astronomers have been able not
merely 10 make maps OF their surfaces,
but 10 prove conclusively that the bodies
rotate only once In the course Of a revolu-
ton about the sun. One face of the plan
81 is therefore. turned toward the sun and
heated to an immense temperature. while
the other is wrapped in everlasting night.
The markings down by Lowell have set
tied the question Of the rotation of Mer-
curry and Venus. which had been partially
studied by Schiaparelli some years ago.
Professor Lowell finds that Mercury has
an appreciate atmosphere, while Venus
has an abundance of IT, but. for some rea-
son. she possesses only a few clouds
Drawings OF her markings have been for
warded TO the Royal Astronomical Society
III London. Dir. 7. ]. See and Mr. Cogs-
hall have used the new telescope on the
southern double stars. and IL Is announced
that since August they have discovered
fifty new stellar systems. besides measur-
ing 100 stars recognized by previous obser-
vers.
