Heat Of the Sun.

II has been computed that the tenn
perature Of the surface Of the sun
would be expressed by $4,000 degrees
Of Fahrenheit's thermometer, or be-
tween eighty and ninety times the tenn
perature Of boiling water. This Is
about FIVE times the highest tempera-
ture that man Is able to produce by ar
tiflcial means, The light given OF from
the surface Of the sun Is reckoned as
being $500 times more intense than
that Of the molten metal In Bessemer
converter, though that Is Of an almost
binding brilliancy. II we compare 1t
with oxyhydrogen fame. the sun sheds
light equal to LAG times the intensity
of the limelght.

this afternoon cross the French frontier

Although considerably astonished that
Emperor William should choose the pres.
ent moment for the first visit to French
territory made by a German emperor
since the King of Prussia was proclaimed
emperor at Versailles in 1871. the govern
ment at once dispatched instructions to
the customs officials to allow the i'm
pertal automobile to pass the frontier
without examination and for the proper
guarding of the route by gendarmes to
prevent any unfortunate incident
According to the official advices the en-
peror will have to traverse only about
100 yards of French soil in order to reach
a point whence he can view the splendid
panorama. The view includes the plain
Of upper Alsace, the Lakes of Longemer
and Gerardmer, and the valleys of the
Cologne and Moselotte rivers, which flow
through pine forests into the Moselle.
