ECLIPSE OF THE MOON TONIGHT,

Special to the Eagle
Washington. d. C.. June 3.-Tonight
the inhabitants OF the greater part OF
the North American continent will
have an unusually fine opportunity TO
see total eclipse OF the moon. The
moon will be Ia the shadow OF the
earth for over an hour and practically
the only light from the heavens will
be that Of the stars.
The reason why the moon will be
invisible. as the phenomenon Is ex-
plalned by the astronomers. is the In.
iiuence OF the earth's atmosphere.
which bends the suns rays at the
edges of illuminated hemispheres OF
our planet and throws on the moon a
faint glow. usually OF red copper hue.
II results from the absorption In our
atmosphere OF the green blue and yio-
let rays In the suns light while red
rays pass through H. II is much the
same as the sunset glow. though in
finitely more faint.
The moon will not pass through the
central. and deeper. part OF the shad-
ow. and so will probably not be entire
ly lost TO view at any time. although
II will appear OF a ddll-red color. and
will give so little light that darkness
will prevail for more than an hour,
and the stars will shine as brightly
as on a moonless night. Were the
moon to pass through the center of
the earth's shadow. there would be a
black eclipse. lasting four hours. In
the course of which the moon would
probably disappear entirely from
sight.
II the sky Is clear. tonights eclipse
can be seen without the aid OF glass
or telescope OF any kind. Persons liv.
ing in the Eastern section OF the
United States and Canada win see the
moon rise before the shadow has ad-
vanced very far. while in some parts
Of the West the moon will be entirely
covered when Il rises.

NORMAL APPOINT
MENTs CUT OFF
BY His Veto Gov. Campbell Deals
Hard Blow to Poor Boys and
Girls Seeking an Education.

Special to the Eagle.
Austin. Texas June 3.--No appoint
ments will be made this year by state
officials and members OF the leglsla-
ture to scholarships In the three state
normals. for the reason that the nee
esslty for such appointments does not
now exist. as the governor has cut
out the appropriation OF si7,5Oo made
for each of the state normals for schol-
arships. II seems that the public gel
orally. and especially prospective stu
dents. do not know that there will be
no appointments this year. from the
number OF letters that are daily being
received by the state officials urging
the making OF appointments.
Compirolled stephen said that dur.
ing the past week or so. he has been
deluged with letters from various sec.
tions OF the state urging the appoint
ment ot certain young men or young
women for these scholarships. He said
that Il IL a waste OF time now TO con
tinue making these applications. as
even were he and the other state Off.
cials TO make the customary appoint
ments. that there are no funds for
defraying the expenses. The majority
OF scholarships are young ladies. who
are anxious 20 qualify as teachers;
these will feel the loss Of these schol'
arships more than the young men.
Under the law governing the award
ing OF these scholarships. the COVER.
