The Pale-F aced Moon.

While some of the difficult problems
of astronomy that have presented
themselves to the human mind have
been solved with an accuracy which
proves the almost magical power of
mathematical analysis, and which
too cannot fail to elicit the astOnish-
ment and the admiration of all such
as are not sufficiently versed in the
science to realize the wondrous po-
tency, there are other questions that
have been less satisfactorily answered
and about which there still prevails a
diversity of opinions. There is in the
whole range of celestial dynamics no
more profound problem than the
movement of our near neighbor the
moon-a problem which depends prin-
cipally on the attraction of the earth
and to some extent on the disturb
ance caused by the sun; yet, despite
the abstruseness of the calculations
the results obtained are so accurate
as to enable us to predict the occur
renee of either solar or lunar eclipses
in both Of which the moon plays such
a conspicuous part for one year, or
a dozen years, or for any number OF
years to come. down to the very min
ute, so that any uncertainty as to the
correctness Of such predictions is al
together ont Of the question, thus
precluding any doubt and controversy
Origin of Meteortes.
On the other hand the question
concerning the origin of the larger
meteors that have fallen from the sky
upon the earth has not yet been so
satisfactorily answered as to remove
all doubts. Some astronomers are OF
opinion that the meteorites and the
so-calIed shooting stars are really
the same thing, and the difference is
merely that of size; while others
maintain that their origin is essen
TALLY different. On the connection Of
the showers of shooting stars and
the comets all are agreed, as there IL
really no room left for any doubt; but
some Of the most distinguished as
tronomers are not agreed upon the
origin Of meteorites. Some think a
comet is made up Of meteors. to
which others object as being neon.
patibIe with their structure, which

ments of some vast mass slowly
cooled, whereas comets are made up
of such an exceedingly rare gas as 10
transmit light without refraction,
Now the question arises. if the mett~
orites do not come from the comets,
do they come from other members Of
the solar system? If so, they must
have been projected by some volcanic
force far enough TO get beyond the
reach Of the attraction Ot the planet,
and here arises the interesting Ques-
tion What must be the initial veloc-
ity with which a body must be pro
jected from a planet never to return
there any more? This velocity is
called the critical velocity and can be
determined for each planet. The cal
culation depends upon the radius Of
the planet and the gravity on its sur
fac. The critical velocity OF the earth
per second is 6.95 miles. This Condi-
ton must be fulfilled if the meteorites
is to come from any of the planets,
but there is another and very i'm
portant one. viz. that the body, after
being projected from the planet with
a velocity at least equal to the critical
velocity, will fall upon the earln. Inc
projected meteorites, in order to fall
upon the earth, must cross the eClip-
tic of the earth, a band 5000 miles
broad. But what are 5000 miles
compared with the planetary dis
tances that amount to many millions?
The probability of such an event is so
enthusiastically small as virtually to
amount to an impossibility. If any of
the volcanoes of the moon were yet
in state of activity there might be
a possibility of meteorite coming
from that body. but the moons sur
face has been so thoroughly examined
as to leave no doubt that all its vol
canoes are extinct, If these meteor
ties come not from the stars planets,
comets nor the moon, whence do they
come?

Eclipse of Sun.
In the course of the month of Octo-
her the moons phases are as follows:
New on the LIST and 31st, first quarter
on the 9th, full on the 18th and last
quarter on the 23d. She will be in
apogee on the Sth and in perigee on
the 18th The reader will notice that
new moon occurs twice during the
month and may be curious to know
under what condition any one phase
of the moon may occur twice in a
month. While the moon performs
sidereal revolution-that is, from
star to the same star again in 1882
days-she performs a synodiC one
that is, from one phase to the same
phase again-in 1858 days. 1t is,
therefore, the synodic period upon
which the phases depend The reason
why the synodic period exceeds in
length the sidereal is evidently be
cause during each sidereal month the
sun mas dd NdlNSh CllhplS IAN HAoA
and must be caught up with. If any
one phase happens to fall on the first
day of a month that has 81 days it
will occur again in that month, and if
it fall on the I'd of such a month it
may occur again. In July, 1901, full
moon occurred on the list and Slst.
In January, 1900, new moon fell on the
LIST and 31st, and in October of the
same year first quarter fell on the LIST
and 31st In that year also there was
no new moon in February, nor did
in that month me moon reach her
perigee.
The Planets.
The planet Mercury is in Virgo,
month. The reason for the staying so
long in one constellation of so quick
a traveller as Mercury is because on
the 18th it begins to retrograde. The
apparent month of a planet as seen
from the earth is one of the most i'm
portant, and, at the same time, inter
esting, things in astronomy, and the
student of that science should pay the
earnest attention the subject demands,
During the greater portion of the
month Venus will be in Leo, but enter
Virgo toward it's close. AS the sun in
the October mornings rises after 6
o'clock, and Venus between and
o'clock this beautiful planet may be
seen at that not early time above the
eastern horizon. Stellar objects are
not seen at the greatest advantage
near the horizon; but Venus is so
bright an object that even near the
horizon she can hardly be mistaken
for any other planet or star. On Oc-
tober 0 she will be in close coniunc-
ton with the moon, being then only l
degree distant from it, Mars will be
in Cancer though at the termination
of the month in Leo. Rising between
/ and o'clock in the morning. he
will like Venus, act as a morning
star. Jupiter is in Capricornus, set
ting about half an hour before Jupiter.
On the 30th a partial eclipse of the
sun viii! take place, which, however,
will not be visible in our latitude, it
being confined to Eurasia
