New sun-spot Theory Enumerated.

Astronomical subjects predominated at
Fridays session of the General Ameri-
can Philosophical Society in Philadelphia.
An address on "Radio-Aetivity in Solar
Phenomena" was made by Prof Monroe
B. Snyder of Philadelphia, in which he
enunciated new theory based on recent
observations. particularly of solar spots
He said in part: THE radioactive out
bursts in the neighborhood of the spots
provide the materials whose sudden cool
ing and downward precipitation produce
the spots. and they also send forth ema-
nations which are hurled away from the
sun by it's pressure of reelection at an
enormous velocity. Under the balancing
play of the radioactive fraEsf0rmatfo
with upward pressure of reelection and
downward pressure of gravity, the spot
can go on forming and transforming itself
as huge vortex ring until its subsistence

In opening his subject he told several
quaint stories illustrative of the primitive
New England backwoodsman. One of them
was to the effect that he had written a let
ter that he would be at the nearest railroad

later learned that he could get there earlier
and sent a telegram to apprise his camp
keepers of his changed plans. When he ar
rived at the station he found no one there
and had to walk several miles through the
four-foot snow. Reaching the camp he was
accosted by a boy, who said: why, Mr..
Underwood, we didn't look for you today"

Underwood.

ter sayin' you'd be here tomorrow, and the
