Position Of Sun at Noon.

Besides casting the shadow of the sun
at the different hours of the day to denote
the local apparent time we can utilize the
position OF the sun at noon, when 1t is just
crossing the meridian. to cast the shadow of
the arms of the upright cross upon the sur
face of the plate. Since he sun rises and
falls in altitude with the season of the year
as it passes north and south of the equator
shadow, according to the time Of the year.
Thus. in summer. when the sun Is high in
the sky. it casts a short shadow, or in the
winter when ii is lower down toward the
south, at noon 1t casts longer shadow. By
calculating the altitude or the correspond
ing zenith distance. the length of the shadow
may be found for any date in the year.
1.-THE eastern arm of the cross registers
the calendar for the summer-autumn half
winter-spring half OF the year. There Is, OF
course. some trouble with the movable
feasts and season depending upon the date
of Easter that is for Lent, Easter, Ascen-
sion and Whitsunday. Easter Is on the
first Sunday following the full moon which
occurs on March p or later, and It may
range from March "a to April 20. 1t was
only possible to indicate one Easter date,
namely, March Is. which Is assumed to be
the date Of the nrst scriptural yesterday.
and leaving q broad space to the line or
April 20 The other dates OF Lent, Ascen-
sion, Whitsunday must be placed accord
ing to the Easter of the given year.

GOOD WILL
 IN RUSSIA Celebration of the BeIat- ed Christmas
For the Moment the Spirit of the Peaceful Day Pervaded the Dis tracted Land.

St Petersburg, Jan. "A fine snow drifting down from the cold sky fur nished ideal weather for the Russian Christmas so far as St. Petersburg was concerned. All the theaters and other places of public amusement and even restaurants were closed and the day was given up to the proverbial Rus sian hospitality.
 The dissensions which have torn and distracted the country seemed to have disappeared for the moment and even the radical newspapers animated by a sentiment of peace and good will to all silenced their guns. The day passed quietly and without untoward incident Religious services in the churches were largely attended.
 At the palace at Tsarskoe Selo, the emperor himself presided at a Christ mas tree. Later accompanied by his imperial children his majesty visited the quarters of his imperial Cossack escort to the members of whom he dis tributed presents.

STANDARD SILENCE
 GOOD AS ADMISSION
Attorney General of Missouri Takes
 Position or Indifference.

New York, Jan. 7.-Attorney General Hadley of Missouri, tonight said he would probably ask for a hearing in the supreme court in this city on We'd nesday or Thursday to determine whether H. H. Rogers and other direc- tors of the Standard Oil company must answer questions at the hearing before Commissioner Sanborn regarding the control of the oil companies operating in Missouri.
 "I confess,'' he said, that I did not have much hope when came here that the Standard Oil directors would tell about Standard Oil control of the Wat ers-Pierce Oil company and the two other companies operating in Missouri but since they have appeared in an- swer to subpoenas, I shall make the best effort I can to have them tell the facts.
 ''I don't care of course, to have any body committed for contempt. I shah ask the court to have the witnesses di- rected to answer certain questions which they have declined to answer. If tn court orders the into answer and they still refuse, shall not leave to the court the question of contempt. Re, fusal to answer in such a case, would be next best for my purpose to an an swer in the affirmative, since It would be equivalent to an admission"

EVIDENCE OF SUICIDE
 BUT MONEY MISSING
Dead Body of Wealthy Chicagoan
 Found Near Colorado Springs.

Colorado Springs, Jan. 7.-The dead body of E. Crane Wilson. a wealthy Chicago man, was found upon the highway seven miles east of this city this evening with a bullet hole in the head. Indications point to suicide, al- though a gold watch and chain he wore were missing.
 Wilson has been staying at the Alta Vista hotel in this city for over a year, and left the hotel this afternoon on horseback. His only companion was a greyhound.
 This afternoon two well-known citi- zens of this place found the body as they were driving in from their ranch and telephoned the coroner. The lat ter went to the scene and found the body Wilson was lying at the side of the road flat on his back. A bullet had entered the head three inches back of the right ear and lodged under the left eye. Wilson's pet horse was standing by his side and his big greyhound was

its Friends Decided That They Will Finish
 the Philippines Bill First
Rather Indefinite Time Set for Taking up the Hamilton Which is Still Said to be in State of Prep aration.

Washington, Jan. 7.-After contem- plating the plan to displace the Philip pine tariff bill with the statehood measure in the house this week, lead CTS arrived at the conclusion at the last moment before adjournment on Saturday that the present order of business should not be disturbed. and the list of speeches which are to occupy at least the first half of the week on the revenue measure will be unre- stricted. MT. Payne, in charge of the bill estimates that discussion on this bill next week will occupy the first three days.
 After the Philippine bill has been disposed of the statehood bill, which the committee on territories has still in preparation, will be brought for ward immediately and that question will be discussed and acted upon with. out interruption.
 No appropriation measure will be taken until the statehood bill has been disposed of, but the regular supply measures are expected to come in with regularity thereafter.

A RAILROAD WAR
 IN SAN FRANCISCO
The Western aud Southern Pacific in
 Heated Controversy.

San Francisco, Jan. 7.-Armed guards, injunction proceedings, and condemnation suits have been intro duced into the controversy between the Western Pacific and Southern Pacific railways over the plan of the Western Pacific to place it's terminus on the Oakland side of San Francisco bay, between the Southern Pacific's broad gauge and narrow gauge moles. The Western Pacific has laid mile of pre- liminary track on a strip of reclaimed land, the title to which is a matter of controversy between the state and the Southern Pacific. This unexpected move gave the Western Pacific pos session of a fill. The Western Pacific next went into the superior court of Alameda county and asked to have condemned a strip of land running across the lands owned by the South ern Pacific.
 The Southern Pacific followed this by obtaining a temporary injunction restraining the Western Pacific from further track laying operations. The hearing of all suits was set for Janu- ary F. Pending the hearing, the West ern Pacific has placed seven armed guards on the strip of filled land to protect it's temporary tracks.

CHINESE BOYCOTT
 BEGINS 10 COUNT
Unless it's Lifted Big Coast Mills Will
 Shut Down.

Seattle, Wash. Jan. 7.-Unless the Chinese boycott on American goods is removed within the next thirty days the plants of the Centennial Milling company with capacity of 2.400 bar rels of flour per day, and that of the Hammond Milling company, with its daily capacity of 1000 barrels, will be forced practically to close down.
 The boycott has been felt for the past few months by every floiir mill . ing concern doing an export bushes on the Pacific coast and the outlook for the flouring industry, unless the boycott is removed, is believed to be anything but rosy.

the senate for some time, but MT. Gal finger will urge the vote as soon as possible.
 It is expected that the treaty with Cuba relative to the Isle of Pines will be discussed during the week. This treaty is in the hands of MT. Forakef and he will make an effort to secure action at the first practical moment. The treaty will not be ratified without opposition. Several senators have ex- pressed themselves as of the opinion that the Americans on the Isle of Pines have acquired some rights under prom ises made them by representatives of their government. Many Pennsylvania people are on the island, and MT. Pen rose has announced his intention of aiding them in maintaining their status.
 There is no expectation of being able to take up the railroad rate question for several weeks, but the senate lead. CTS say the consideration of that sub ject will not be unduly postponed. They are already discussing the final ad- juornment of the session and a confer ence on that subject with Speaker Cannon has been held. The speaker has assured the senators that it would be impossible to get all the appropria- tion bills through the house by the first of June. In that event adjournment by the tenth of that month will be inn possible, for the senate managers eX- press confidence that the railroad, statehood and Philippine questions will have been disposed of by that time, and it is not their intention to permit other subjects to hold them in session late into the summer. The emergency ap- propriation bill which the senate eX- poets to receive from the house towards the end of this week will carry a much larger amount than usual.
 Ordinarily. only pressing deficiencies are provided for in this bill, others be- ing left for the general deficiency bill, the last important measure to be con- sidered before adjournment. It has been found, however. that this plan tends to delay and the present policy is to get important items in on an early bill, leaving only new and small defi- ciencies to be taken care of in the later bill.
