SUNS ECLIPSE.
The Lick Observatory Party Gets
Satisfactory Pkotographs.

LICK OBSERVATORY, Jan. 24.-A
cablegram received at Mount Hamilton
from Professor Campbell, who is in
charge of the CrockerLick Observatory
expedition at Jeur. India, states that
most satisfactory photographs Of the
corona were obtained with three diff
ferent telescopes, one set with tele-
scope forty feet long and two other sess
with fve-foot and three-foot telescopes.
He also reports that the great equa-
torial extension of the corona which
formed such a conspicuous feature of
the eclipse OF January, 1889, has again
been photographed.
He also satisfactorily photographed
the changes in the solar spectrum with
the aid of enc of the spectroscopes. and
probably obtained successful photo
graphs of the reversing layer.
The vanors OF certain incandescent
matter IN the lower region of the sun 5
atmosphere form comparatively thin
stratum IN more elevated region cali
cd the reversing layer. Certain Of the
rays Of light from the lower regions Of
the suns atmosphere are absorbed in
passing through this stratum. and the
absence Of these rays is Indicated by
the procence of dark lines in the solar
spectrum II IS this reversing layer
that has probably been photographed
by the Lick Observatory party.

Q. Brown, now of Chicago, to-day con-
fessed to the Bay Conference of the
Congregational Church that "a portion"
of ;he charges connecting his name
With that of Matte Overman are true
He appeared before the conference
very Unexpectedly, and expressed the
deepest ccntrition for his back-sliding.
resigned himself to fate, was chastised
and dropped out of the Congregational
ministry, shook hands with the chas-
tise1s, and wound up by declaring that
he was glad of it all.
In his confession he says: mo action

me either of my pulpit or of any fel-

cepting fellowship of the one and seek

Bay Conference, and in every tone of
his voice was a tremulous plea for

After the conference had rendered its
decision of expulsion he seemed some

advantageous. The privilege is rarely
accorded, and will considerably hiSnten

in the eyes of the Chinese.
The German Government believes
it has done all that is necessary for the
prevention of further outrages The
best guarantees, however. are the per-
manent presence, under the treaty. OF
German men-of-war and a garrison at
Kiaochau, by which it is hoped the
authorities and population Of China Will
not again forget that no wrong done 10
German subjects will be allowed to pass

Baron Won Bulow, in conclusion, SAID
that the negotiations with reference to
the construction of railways and the
workings of coal mines We're proceeding

Kiaochau because it was not too near
the French and British spheres of IN
tercst or Russia's sphere Of power.
Eiaochau was not an Ell Dorado. but

RICH STRIKE.
Made in the Roanoake Mine, Near

reached this city of a rich strike last
Friday in the Roanoke mine property
of George B. Sperry. George West and
DR.. Wallace of this city. and MIR. Kit
tredge of New York and situated near
Mokleurnne Hill. The strike was made
at depth of 800 feet, where a large
body of rich ore was uncovered. The
ledge is ten feet wide. containing con-
siderable free gold, and is free milling
ore. Some of it will assay $500 a ton,
and some as high as 81. 1.09O.
1t is the purpose of the owners to
sink 200 feet on the ledge. and opera
tions will be begun at once. The mine
in which the strike was made was form
erly known as the Lamphere, and the
present owners have been operating it
but four years. The twenty-stamp
mill which had been erected some time
ago was burned recently, having been
set on fire by incendiaries. The mill
was erected at cost of S200e0. and
in view of the recent strike. it is highly
probable that it will be rebuilt. In
fact. the owners of the mine are even
now awaiting thf arrival of Eastern
capitalists with that end IL view. Nc
