WHEN THE MOON ObSCURFS THE Sun.

The moon, coUrsing in its orbit about
the earth, cuts off the rays of sunlight
from a part Of the earth's surface,
making long, narrow, conelike, deep
shadow (see illustration between e and
u, which the earth intercepts in her
orbital course about the sun. This dark
shadow is called the "urnbra," and it
marks the "totaF-or in this case "an-
nular"-pathway Of the eclipse. The
part in the diagram marked q and U
(of lighter shading) is called 1.-The
penumbra," or almost shade" where
not all the rays of light from the sun
are cut off.
The name "annular" is given to the
variety Of eclipse where the suns disk
Is nearly but not entirely covered or
hidden from US; there remains mar
row ring Of bright sunlight all
around the dark body Of the moon as
it covers over the disk of the sun. All
eclipses Of the sun are caused By the
moons coming between the earth and
the sun, and this results in either a
partial eclipse, an annular eclipse, or
q total eclipse Of this body.

Black Forest Customs.

The peasant farms of the Black for
est are handed down from father to
son in direct line, often dating back
for century, says the Antiquary.
There is no division as in France
all falls to the heir, only here 1t is not
the eldest but the youngest son who
inherits. 1t is rare that a bur (peas-
anti dies as reigning head When he
gets on in years he abdicates in order
to end his days in the Leibgedingehaus
(dower house,, which stands beside
each hof (steading).
That he does so in favor of his
youngest son is very sensible; were it
the elder he would have no peace, for
as soon as he married he would try to
induce his parents to retire just ut an
age when power is sweetest ard best
exercised. For this reason the practi-
cal farmers of bygone generations de-
cided to hand over the succession to
the youngest, since when Benjamin is
a full-grown man Father Jacob is old
and glad to rest.
This law of inheritance goes by the
name of yortel. Should the heir of his
own free will desire to resign in favor
of his elder brother the latter must
buy the property from him. In such q
| case the younger may be termed a kind
of Esau.

The mansion old, in its cloak of gray,
Crept out of sight to make way for
trade;
Gone are its walls and the garden gay
Where vi'lets grew with the lark spur

They say that the orchard, too, is gone,
And naught remains that used to
But visit still, tween the eve and dawn,
My playhouse under the apple tree.
They say the friends that my childhood
knew
Are men, grave-browed, and are women

But I meet them there as l used to do,
Each merry girl and each sturdy lad. e
Little we know of each others lack,
Whom Fame hath honored and whom
left free.
The years are forgotten as we troop back
Into the playhouse beneath the tree.

TAFT FOR ROOSEVELT'S POLICIES:
PLEDGES CONTINUANCE OF REFORMS

while Mr.. Bryan would extirpate and de-
stroy the entire business in order to stamp
out the evils which they have practiced
The combination of capital in large
plants to manufacture goods with the
greatest economy is just as necessary as
the assembling of the parts of machine

Interfere with one any more than the

for they are then the natural results of
modern enterprise and are beneficial to
the public. In the proper operation of
competition the public will soon share
with the manufacturer the advantage in
economy of operation and lower prices.
One important phase of the policies of
the present administration has been an
anxiety to secure for the wage Garner an
equality Of opportunity and such positive
statutory protection as shall place him
on level in dealing with his employer.

plOyers' liability act for interstate rail-
roads, and has established an eight-hour
law for government employees and on gov

from the character of the injury and the
methods of infiicting it and the fact that
suit for damages offers no adequate rem

The man who has a business which is
being unlawfully injured is entitled to the
remedies which the law has always given
him. no matter who has inflicted the in
juries. Otherwise we shall have class
legislation unjust in principle and likely
to sap the foundation of a free govern

come now to the question of notice
before issuing an injunction. 1t is fun
damental rule of general Jurisprudence
that no man shall be affected by judi

had an exception in the issuing temporary
restraining orders commanding defend

Notice for Defendants.
The unlawful injury usual in industrial
disputes, such as l have described. does
not become formidable except after suffi-
Gent time in which to give the defendants
notice and a hearing l do not mean to
say that there may not be cases even in
industrial disputes where restraining

an elliptical orbit about the earth) the
smaller is the apparent size of her di-
ameter to US, and hence the lessened
amount of the suns surface she will
cover.
The same conditions prevail as re-
CARDS the earth's position in her orbit
about the sun, for in her elliptical
course about him she also has near
point (perihelion) and a distance point
(aphelion) and the nearer the earth
is to the sun the larger will his disk ap-
pear to US; so that if the earth is IN
perihelion and the moon is in apogee,
no total eclipse is possible; but an an
nular one may prevail If the centers of
each of the three bodies, earth, moon
and sun, are on one and the same
straight line connecting them.

have the right to strike in a body. They
have a right to use such persuasion as
they may, provided it does not reach the

issue without notice and which shall also
provide that when they are issued they
shall cease to be operative beyond a
short period, during which time notice
shall be served and a hearing had unless
the defendant desires a postponement of
the hearing.
This inadequacy of our present cur

and enormous expansion, is generally rec
ognized. The Republican platform well
States that we must have a more elastic
and adaptable system to meet the require
ments of agricuturalists, manufacturers,
merchants and business men generally,
which must be automatic in operation,
recognizing the fluctuations in interest
rates, in which every dollar shall be as
good as gold, and which shall prevent
rather than aid financial stringency to

Favors Postal Savings Banks.
In addition to this, the Republican
platform recommends the adoption of
postal savings bank system under which,
of course, the government would become
responsible to depositors for the payment
of principal and interest.

We are anxious to prevent even an ap-
pearance of injustice to labor in issuing
injunctions, not in the spirit of favorit-
ism to any set of our fellow citizens, but
IN the interest of justice to all.
The Democratic proposal to supervise
the business of corporations in such a
way as to fix the price of commodities
and compel their sale at such a price is
as absurd and socialistic a plank as was
ever inserted in a Democratic platform.
The Democratic platform proposes to
take off the tariff on all articles coming
into competition with those produced by
the so-called trusts" and to put them
on the free list. Such a course would
not only destroy the trusts, but all their
smaller competitors.
The combination of large capital in
plants to manufacture goods with the
greatest economy is just as necessary as
the assembling of the parts of q machine
to the manufacture of what formerly was
made by hand. The government should
not interfere with the one any more than
the other.

Southern Professionalism.

The influence of southern protection
ism was in evidence at the Denver con-
vention. 1t accounts for the absence
from the platform of any demand for
free trade in Philippine products. In
dependence for the Filipinos is advo-
Gated, but it is not proposed that the
southern farmers who grow sugar, to-
bacco and rice shall be exposed to the
competition of Philippine cheap labor.
A resolution calling for the removal of
all duties on all Philippine products is
said to have been prepared, but the
southern Democrats were able to
smother it in committee, just as south
ern Democrats assisted in smothering
in the Senate committee the Philippine
free trade bill.
