Professor Turner's Interesting Theory of Whrng Masses

terror, while others have argued
that they were places where the
suns fires were failing. The latter
hypothesis would explain why we ex-
perience cold weather on earth at
The time OF maximum sunspots.
This uncertainty regarding sun
spots lends great interest to the new
theory of their nature. 1t is put
forward by Professor Turner, of the
Royal Society of England, who fur
nishes abundant astronomical and
mathematical arguments in support
Of it.
Professor Turner suggests that a
small portion of the great meteoric
swarm known as the Leonids has
become detached from the main
shower, owing to gravitational action
of Saturn on some favorable occa-
sion. This subsidiary swarm travels
in an orbit which brings it period
ically into violent collision with Sa-
turn. At such recurrent events, the
PARTICLES collide with the particles
constituting Saturn's Rings (Which

than a great meteoric swarm. In
one part of the Rings, the fragments
move with equal and opposite We
locities, and collisions would impart
rest IN both opponents, and hence
forth they must inevitably fall into
the sun.
These fragments from Saturn's
Rings appear to plunge headlong
into the solar furnace at the rate of
400 miles a second, giving rise to
the well-known phenomena of sun
spots. Chinese and other records
during the last~2 1000 years substan-
tiate this theory that, following a
collision between Saturn and the
meteoric swarm, there is manifested
an epoch of large and numerous
sunspots. Professor Turner adds
that although the hypothesis is sup
ported by past and present records,
to consider it as finally established
would be premature.
Under this theory three of the

most marvellous phenomena In the
whole universe are brought into re-
lation with one another. They are
the sunspots, the swarm of shooting
stars, called Leonids, and the ring
and moons of Saturn.
The Leonids are mass of me
teorites with an orbit reaching 600,-
100000 miles into space, that ap-
proach the solar system, our earth,
Saturn and the other planets, once
in thirty-three years. 1t is then
that the collision with Saturn's ring
must take place.
Saturn is surrounded by enormous
fiat, luminous rings, which form one
of the greatest wonders of the heav-
ems. The rings are about 175,00o
miles in diameter, and the average
estimate of their thickness is 70
miles.
An artist has depicted the amaz-
ing sight which Saturn would pre-
sent when seen from one of it's ten
moons, Japetus. This moon is about
the size of our earth's moon, but 1t
has the remarkable distinction of
having an atmosphere. The vari-
alton of light and the formation of
clouds have been observed on ia
petus. Proctor and other astrono-
mers have argued that it is prob
ably the abode of living creatures.
What must be the CONSERVATION
Of these creatures when they see
the rings of the parent planet Saturn
suddenly checked by collision with
the fight of the Leonids and then
torn away to form colossal spots on
the sun,
1t is possible that the inhabitants
of Japetus are water creatures bet
ter able to endure terrific disturb
anees in their atmosphere than air
jewellers can be.
In any case. it is certain that the
eyes of the inhabitants both of Sa-
turn and Japetus must witness &C.
lestial spectacles infinitely more
sublime and appalling than any that
come within our intimate vision on
earth.

N entirely new theory has
~ been put forward regarding
L n sunspots. This theory is
that they are fragments of the
rings of Saturn driven into the sun
by the mctcors called Leonids.
Sunspots are of vital Importance
to our existence on earth. They
reach a period of maximum growth
once in every eleven years. This
period is always accompanied by
great storms on earth and other
disturbances of the weather.
Sunspots are dark patches on the
surface of the sun Of irregular form.
but having tendency to be round
They vary greatly in size, but are
frequently from $4,000 to 100000
miles in diameter.
They present an extraordinary
appearance to the astronomer view
ing them through the telescope
Concerning the nature of the dark
Central part of the spot, only
guesses can be made, but the edges
present the most fantastic appear
ance conceivable. Sometimes they
are walls of flame hundreds of miles
long reaching out from the surface of
the sun.
AS a general rule, periods of maxi
mum sunspot development are
marked by cold weather, while those
of renewed development are re-
markable for electric storms. We
are now in a period of developing
sun spots, and this would account for
the mild weather we have had for
the past several Winters. BY the
same rule we should have many
electric storms during the coming
year.
