An Unusual siqht.

Pittsburg, Pa, June 16.-According
to Professor John A. Brashaer, an AL
legheny astronomer, tomorrow's
eclipse of the sun will be totally un-
like any other recorded in the his
tory of skygazing. He says;
"The eclipse will be of a very in
teresting character from the fact that
for a few seconds 1t will be an annu-
lar eclipse, then change to a total
eclipse then back to an annular
eclipse for the second time. cannot
find record of such an occurrence in
any history Of astronomy, although
we have records of annular eclipses
for 400 years, and of total eclipses
for thousands of years. The eclipse
as a partial phase of greater or lesser
magnitude will sweep over the North
American continent from the north,
decreasing in size as it passes
through Canada and the States"

Hudson, Who Was in Savannah
Yesterday for a Brief Visit

Local members of the Baraca are
hoping that Marshall A. Hudson, of
Syracuse, n. Y, founder of the organ
ization, will visit Brunswick. He is
now in Savannah the guest of the Ba-
raca class of that city. Mr.. Hudson
is pushing the Worldwide Baraca
association.
The original class of the First Bap-
tist church of Syracuse has grown
from eighteen members just thirteen
years ago to an enrolment of 355
today, The tota, membership of the
movement is now 100000
Mr.. Hudson is a man of magnetic
personality, whose every manner is
cordial and friendly. OF the great
movement, of which he is the found
er and has been largely the developer,
he spoke modestly. He is a plain,
unassuming business man, having up
until few years ago been the pro-
prietor and successful manager of
several crockery stores in his native
city.
Mr.. Hudson is most optimistic as
regards the future of the movement.
He believes that within three years
the total number of Baraca students
will number more than a million.
