NOW THE RED SUNSETS.
Volcanic Dust in Upper Atmo sphere is
Responsible.

Look out for red sunsets. Watch for
a deep crimson, a lurid glowing car
mine, in the western sky. See the sun
go to bed CARRIED in unwonted splendor,
cleaning Ikea great sinister, bleary
eye as he drops below the horizon.
Gaze on the most gloriousIy, wonder
fully beautiful afterglow this part of
the world has ever known. And then
thank old Mont Pelee, whose recent
eruptive mood will thus glorify the
days end almost a year to come
Most sunsets are red, but from now
on, those of the past will be remem-
bered as almost saffron hued and
Jaundiced, compared to what is to be.
Most sunsets are beautiful, but those
of the past are merely fatuous and
sterile compared to the fascinating
hues and glimmering panoply of color
which the next few months have in
prospect. The aurora borealis is the
most gorgeous phenomenon of nature,
but it will not be missed if it stays out
of the North this summer, for the West
Will hold the center of the stage. AL
ready the lurid displays have begun;
all summer they promise to grow in
splendor and magnitude.
The exceeding beauty of the sunsets
of 1902, which will doubtless become
historic, will be due to volcanic dust in
the atmosphere. Everyone knows how
much more gorgeous a ray of sunlight
S when, entering a darkened room, it
strikes athwart a whirl of dancing
door refulgence is as nothing compared

Onegof the most enjoyable affairs Of

IN honor of the birthday of their

Biddeford, who is visiting there for q
short time. Friends to the number of
over 100 were pres ent and the evening
was happily passed with music, games
2 nd social intercourse. The trees on
the lawn were hung with Japanese Ian
terms and most of the evening was
spent out of doors. Mrs. Haley was
given number of presents as tokens
OF the esteem of her many friends who
were glad to have her with them again.
refreshments offruit. confectionery, ice
cream and cake were served during the
evening. One of the features of the
evening were the choice selections on

to the dancing beam in the dust -sl<irl
The same principle holds good on the
sunset proposition; it is simply a case
of the rays, the dust and the darkness
The sun, sinking low to the horizon,
shines directly across the path of the
lust storm, and the darkened world
does the rest. At noon, the dust is
here, and so is the sun, but its light is
great, so strong and so diffused by it's
irectness that the glory and effective
ness is lost; at evening, the contrary is
true. Hence the treat in store with
every setting sun.
Volcanic dust and red sunsets have
long been affiliated. At the last great
eruption-in Java-the western skies
of evening were respondent. But that
was farther away, and, of course, the
atmosphere hereabouts was less af-
facted. The Martinique eruptions We're
near at hand and were vastly greater:
the effects will therefore, be all the
more sublime.
The dust from Pelee's crater was
Hurled for miles up into the air. The
2.eavy part, the stones and ashes, fell,
and st. Pierre was obiterated. The
dust is raining now, all over the West
Indies. and will continue to fall for
some days. becoming finer and finer all
the time, because The heavier it is, the
sooner it will drop to earth again. But
the very lightest dust-the fine, i'm
nalpable powder, too fine for the eye
to see-Went highest of all. Being
lighter even than the lower air. in
many cases, it was caught in the cur
tents of the upper atmosphere, and
held in suspension. These currents
drift about over the earth, and the
world, in its motion eastward, sends
them backward and westward as it
Whirls. Thus the fine dust is carried
on, on, in the thin high air, in great
sweeps and swirls, till eventually it
will circle and canopy the whole
globe. No one knows how long it viii
drift up there; every storm which
draws down from the upper regions
the cool. thin air, Will lessen its volume,
TIL finally, it will be eliminated alto
gether. But this may take a year
even longer.
Meanwhile the sun at evening will
be seen, as it sinks to rest, through
these upper air strata: the billions on
billions of powdery atoms will be
Whirling about in the atmospheric cur
rents: the Sunbeams Will strike them
IL their dance-and the instance of the
ray of light in the darkened room will
be repeated in a gigantic way, and the
glowing. lurid crimson sunset will de-
light the world.
That's all there is to ii. It's VOL
canic dust and sunoeams. No one can
calculate either the fineness or thu
quantity of that dust nor how long it
will remain in the upper air We will
shortly see its effect here if we have
rot already; we may notice it for a
year to come"

Charlotte Pronte is the latest English

just been issued in this country by

furnished for publication by her hus-
band. Rev. A. r. Nichols. The Moores,"
it appears. is probably the last
thing Charlotte Rronte ever wrote, the
manuscript being in pencil. 1t has
three incomplete chapters, occupies
thirty two pages of the present edition.
and gives promise that it might have
been equal in merit and popularity to
its authors other work. Dealing with
those hard phases Of life which Char
lotte Bronte knew so well through her
own experience, it exhibits many of the
characteristics which in Jane Eyre"
brought her an unlimited measure of
fame.
In his introduction to the present
volume DIR. Nicoll has nothing to say
about The Moores" He confines him
self exclusively 10 Charlotte Bronte, the
woman. and to Charlotte Bronte, the
author of Jane Eyre" At the outset
he recounts the beginnings of her
authorship. 1.-The story of the COM
position and publication of Jane Eyre
has often been told,' he says, but mis-
statements abound. and they found
their way even into respectable hand
books of literary history. Miss Bronte
wrote The Professor Originally en-
titled The MASTERY, and finished it in

The reply was refusal. but it was
coucned in such reasonable and courte-
Gus terms as to be almost an encour-
agement. Miss Ironte replied that
while she saw grounds for the objec-
ton of the publishers TO the want of
varied interest in the tale, she thought

Tolstoy as man. worker, philosopher,

Dimitri Merejkowski. the Russian
novelist. The Putnams will publish it
in this country. 1t is said to be the
first complete study of the work and
character of Tolstoy by one who is a
fellow countryman, a personal friend
and a fellow author. Merejkowski lays
stress on the contrast between Tolstoy
and Dostoevski in character and in
flueice. and while he is a cordial adj
mirer, he is not 'Tolstoyite' in his
views of society and of the future of
the world.
