Brunswick. and only daughter Of his
Imperial Majesty the Emperor, with
whom the sentry on duty at the en-
trance to her Palace at Brunswick at
tempted to carry on a filtration. The
sentry-so the story goes, became
boared by the continual pacing to and
fro in front of the ducal palace and
looked about for diversion and pres
emily spied a charming young woman,
very plainly dressed approaching. He
decided he would pass the time of day
with her and gave her a wink, to
which she paid no heed. Then he
whistled. The sentry was ignored.
Exasperated. he called softly after.
He was then Mortified by seeing her
turn into the palace. Almost i'm
mediately Duke Ernst rushed out and
after severely reprimanding his gal
liant private, told him that if it had
not been for the fact that the young
lady was the Duchess he would have
had the offender sentenced to jail

appeared before the board of supervi-
sors last week with a complaint that
a bridge near the county line couple
of miles from Buxton had broken
through while he was crossing it with
his traction engine and had precipi-
tated the engine into the ditch. Mr..
Smith requested that the county have
the engine removed from it's present
location, but the board refused to
comply on the grounds that the bridge
was old and Mr.. Smith should have
known it was unsafe to cross with a
traction engine The accident hap
pened last Wednesday and resulted
in completely wrecking the bridge.
The engine fell through the bridge
and ended up on its side in the ditch
but Mr.. Smith escaped unhurt. The
bridge in question has been under
discussion by the board for some time
and is to be replaced with new con-
crete structure.

An Eclipse Of The Sun
WILL PARTIAL IN NORTHEASTERN AMERICA
WILL GET VERY LITTLE,

The eclipse of the sun on August
Fl neXt-total in part of Europe and
Asia and partial in northeastern
America - is attracting the wide
spread attention of astronomers
and scientists, various expeditions
being arranged to witness this phe-
nomenon. In view of the public in
terest in the event, Prof. G. G. Alb
bolt, head of the astronomical branch
of the Smithsonian Institution, and a
recognized authority on solar phen'
omena, gives the following popular ac'
count OF the eclipse and the scien'
tific results sought from such events.
On August 81, 1914, the moon will
pass exactly between the earth and
the sun, and there will be a total so
lar eclipse. Ii will not be observed
in America, except as a small par
tial eclipse at sunrise in the north
ern states and Canada, but in Per
STA, Russia and Scandinavia the full
effect will be seen.
Although the moon looks about the
same size as the sun, it is very much
smaller and nearer. The sun Is $780,
900 miles in diameter and 100000
miles away, while the moon is 2,l63
miles in diameter and $4,000 miles
away On account of the moons
small size, compared with the sun
the shadow cast by the moon is a
cone, and the point of this cone just
barely reaches the earth.
Total in Belt of IS Miles.
In the August eclipse the diameter
of the cone at the earth's surface is
only about IS miles, so that the
eclipse is visible as total only in q
belt about S5 miles wide, stretching
over the countries named above
The important cities OF Bitlis, Trebi
zond, Kief, Minsk and Riga, lie neal
the center of this belt. 1t passes
about 100 miles north of Stockholm
and Trondheim. The eclipse will be
seen as partial over very wide
area. including northeastern America
Greenland, Europe, half of Asia and
half of Africa. Within this region
only a portion of the suns disk will
be hidden by the moon.
Wherever the solar eclipse Is seen
as total, the sky will become nearly
as dark as full moonlight, and a few
of the brighter stars and planets may
be seen. The duration of the totality
is longest near Kief in Russia, where
it is. 2 minutes and thirteen seconds
Sometimes the moon and sun occupy
such positions that although the moon
passes directly between the eartt
and the sun the shadow cone does
not quite reach the earth. Such solal
eclipses ara called "annular" and are
nowhere total eclipses. In the mosI
favorable case a total eclipse may
last over minutes at a station, bu
such occasions are very rare.
The very long total eclipse of this
century with the duration, date ant
region, are as follows:
May 90, 1919, 60 minutes, Peru
Brazil and Central Africa.
June 8, 1887, IL minutes, Pacific
Ocean and Peru.
June 20, 1865, To minutes, CeyloI
Siam and Philippines.
June 30, 1878, 10 minutes, Soutl
America and Africa.
July II, 1891, IL minutes, Pacific
Ocean, Hawaii, Central America.
