MIR. BARTLETT S. JOHNSON,

The we'll known banker and broker of
Baltimore, whose brother is the Demo-
cratic Governor of Alabama, addressed
the following letter to Chairman Nandi-
YER of the Democratic committee:
Il have received your circular letter
asking for contributions to the Democratic
campaign fund. l cannot contribute
to the fund, as l will not vote for the
Democratic Populist nominee. l am a
firm believer in expansion and l believe
President Mckinley has acted fairly and
honorably toward all sections of this
country, and that he has handled our for
eign complications wisely and prudently.
We have now also an abundant currency
in circulation, with a certainty of its bein g
increased, if needed, on the safest possible
basis. further feel that the Democratic
party is not in the hands of its friends,
but its enemies. We should be able to ap-
peal to the Judgment Of all classes. The
present attitude of the party is that of
finding fault with things as they are, but
without offering any real plan to improve
anything. ~

Mr.. Frank T. Redwood, member Of the
banking and brokerage house of Messrs.
Lowndes & Redwood, and a member Of
the Committee of Seventy of the Honest
Money League, also sent a letter to Mr..
Vandiver declining to contribute Mr..
Redwood's letter was as follows:
II have your letter requesting a con-
tribution for your campaign. l consider
myself too good Democrat to contribute
penny to the success of Organism, which
regard as the greatest curse that the
Democratic party has ever been afflicted
with. If the party will only rid itself of
it's present Populistic heresies and go back
to It's old principles, it will have 70 warm

platform am unalterably opposed to it
and shall vote the Republican ticket

agine a wire ring considerably
larger than the earth placed around
it as shown by the smaller circles.
This ring gives us the path of the
moon around the earth. The ring
must be tipped up at a small angle
with the top of the table and the an
gle remains constant, but the position
OF the ring changes otherwise. The
dotted portion is the part of the ring
below the table and the solid part is
above the table. AS the moon swings
around on this ring, it generally comes
up through top Of table at some point
directed away from the sun as in A,
but occasionally 1t comes up through
the table at point directly between
the earth and sun, as at B, and then on
some part of the earth an eclipse is
experienced. The study of the size,
position and motion Of this copical
shadow gives the astronomer the ma
terial upon which lie bases his calcu-
lations concerning The eclipse.
This shadow cone is but little long
Ell than the distance from the earth to
the moon and the result is that the
part which touches the earth has u
small diameter never exceeding 10S
miles and frequently less than this as
the moon is not always at the same dis
tance from the earth. This 1853 miles
or less then gives the width Of the
path of total eclipse. But there is
region outside of this path in which
there is partial eclipse, as shown in

Eclipse is term applied to the
darkening Of any. heavenly body. An
eclipse of the sun is caused by the
passage of the moon between the earth
and sun and the consequent darkening
of the SUMS face. The moon gives no
light Of its own, and being only about
two thousand miles in diameter, while
the sun is nearly nine hundred thous-
and miles in dic,ieter it casts off into
space shadow the shape of cone
the apex being directed away from
the moon. Looking ut it from another
standpoint an eclipse occurs when the
moon Is in such situation that it
swings this shadow onto the earth.
To get IL conception of the matter
imagine the sun on top Of table and
the earth to roll around it in path
nearly circular as shown in Fig 1, in
the large circle. Further i'm

the telescope brings out otherwise in
visible things. If room with an
eastern window be made quite dark,
one Of the windows be opened and the
opening covered with heavy paper in
which Is made u pin hole the progress
of the eclipse can be very nicely watch

Miss Cathryn Schultz, of the grad

PORTLAND POLICE TO SUI.
Will Demand From the City That II
Pay the Two Months' Wage Due
for Services.

Special Dispatch to the acknowledgement.
PORTLAND. Or. Dec. 13.-Members of
the Portland police department have de-
cided to sue the city for the full amount
of their salaries for the months of Octo-
Der and November. There Is no Ques-
ton but that the men are entitled to their
pay. but the problem to be settled Is by
whom are the men to be paid.
The whole difficulty arises In the new
city charter. which allows the police COM
missioners IN mills tax on all city
property to run the department. Political
MISUNDERSTANDING. however. arose be-
tween one faction OF the Republican
party, to which the assessor belongs, and
the other. to which the rest of the city and
county ofncials belong The former then.
to put the latter in a bad predicament,
reduced the valuation OF the city property
from s40.o00.000 to s2S.0O0000 with the re-
suit that all municipal departments had
to cut down their expenses in proportion.
However, the police felt the cut more
keeny than any of the others, and
though the force of seventy-five patrol
men was reduced to fifty-eight. and one
captain let out, the appropriation for
1870 was exhausted As early as October /.
The men received notice about the mid
die OF October that there was no money,
but they still continued to work with the
hope that they would be taken care Of
Nothing has been done for them yet, and
as they are all in need Of money they
have begun this suit.
The aggregate amount of claims Is
about sl0,0 900, which includes the salaries
Of the chief of police captains. sergeants,
patrolmen and, In fact, all the oficers OF
the department. Portland II being run
as a wide-open town and the monthly
fines paid to the police court by the
gambling institutions alone amounts to
5000, or more than the cost OF maintain
ing the police department. but the new
charter does not allow this money to be
used for that purpose.
Citizens in general wish to see the men
paid, and II the city of5icials can find any
legal authority. they will gladly do %.
