THE ECLIPSE.
some General Facts About 1t and Pre-
parationA for Its Observance.

Some General Facts About 1t and Pre-
parations for Its Observance.
Atlanta, Ca, May 2s.-The eclipse OF the
sun Monday, visible throughout North
America, Europe and Africa, but total only
In some parts of Louisiana, Alabama, Geor-
gia, North Carolina, South Carolina and
Virginia In the United States, was an event
of first importance, not only to astrono-
mers, but the world at large. 1t was unpre-
edented In more than one respect. Its
path Of totality, instead OF extending
through sparsely settled regions or run
ming over scant expenses of water, crossed
six states in a populous portion of the
country, all Of the region being easily ac-
cessible by rail and water.
1t has been IL years since a similar
event was witnessed. but the advancement
OF astronomical science and the marvellous
improvements In telescopes, photographs
and electrical appliances insured more
complete observations than ever before
known. The United States government and
all great educational institutions made
elaborate and costly preparations to get
the best possible observations and millions
Of dollars were expended In this way.
study OF the Corona.
While great interest attached to the
eclipse itself. the object Of the astronomers
composing the ECLIPSE expeditions from
all parts OF the country was not alone to
observe the passing of the moon before the
sun, but the study of the corona. This par
ticular branch of the many phenomena
generally attending an eclipse has always
been an unsolvable problem. II is the be-
lief of many astronomers that the corona
is a product OF the sun and has nothing to
do with the earth or moon, as formerly sus-
pected.
TWO spectra, one Of bright lines and the
other continuous, have been revealed at
former eclipses. Hydrogen gas has been
indicated and d rare element called helium,
recently detected in the volcanic rocks on
the earth, has been seen. OF whatever sub
stances the corona may be composed and
whatever may be the true nature of its
physical and chemical constitution, It Is
certain that IL is OF extreme tenuity. So
rare Is It that comets in their swift fight
around the sun have been known to pass
through IL without sensible resistance.
Surrounding the sun is a gaseous substance
termed by astronomers the Chrome
sphere 1t is believed to be from 5000 70
10000 miles deep. Projecting through this
chromosphere are observed with total
eclipses. the shoots, or limbs. which rise
often to a height Of 100000 miles with amaz-
ing rapidity

To the accurate observation OF this para
mount feature OF the eclipse, every appli-
ance OF the instrument makers art, com
bined with the astronomers knowledge,
was directed In the hope Of reaching a
solution OF this philosopher stone" Gen
