coLoRs OF METEoRs.
Three Stages Through Which They
Pass 70 Reach the Earth.

Three Stages Through Which They
Pass TO Reach the Earth.
!. An article by Alfred Wegener in the
Scientific American offers an explana,
ton of the marked difference OF color
observed in meteors. Up to an alti.
tude Of about forty-five miles the prin'
cipaI constituent Of the earth's atmos-
phere is nitrogen. A second stratum
of the atmosphere. extending up to
about 125 miles. consists mainly OF n.y.
drogen. Still higher. Wegener himself
has sought to prove the existence OF q
stratum consisting of an excessively
light gas which he calls 'geocoroni-
um.'' Il &
When entering the atmosphere from
outer space meteors do not become
luminous In the very tenuous ''geocoro
mum sphere" but only when they en-.
ter the hydrogen sphere" and most Of
them are dissipated before reaching
the nitrogen atmosphere. The largest
fireballs. however, penetrate deeper
and may reach the earth or explode
not far above it Ea A.rss-,,.. .
DR.. wegener finds that the meteors
that penetrate deep enough pass
through three color stages-viz, yellow.
white. green and deep red The great
majority exhibit only the first stage,
in which the color (white, yellow.
sometimes reddish, is that Of the In.
candescent meteor itself. The green
stage Wegener believes to be due to
the incandescence OF the hydrogen
through which the meteor is passing,
while the deep red stage is due to the
incandescence Of nitrogen In the lower

Scientists estimate the volume or
size of the sun at more than 100000
times that Of the earth. its mass at
more than 100000 times and its densi-

but they have not attempted to express
its weight In figures. They estimate
that the attraction Of gravitation alone

at the dock near the North German
Lloyd steamer Whitehead.
Silent Entry.
The submersible, under her own
power, slid into a 'pocket" that had
been prepared for her at the wharf
at 2;S5i O'clock. The crafts entry into
the harbor was so silent that only a
few persons were aware that she was
there.
|. Captain Ikoenig said that The boat
originally was supposed to leave on
October |, but she was injured in d
collision and put back to port, de-
laying her sailing 10 days The clear
ance papers we're made ont for, "Bal.
timore or any Atlantic port"
Until the last three days extremely
rough weather was encountered, Cap
tain Koenig said.
/ The Deutschland first attracted
worldwide attention when at almost
the same hour in the morning of July
, she slipped into the Virginia Capes.
Captain Koenig. who brought the
vessel into New London today, also
commanded her on her maiden voy.
age. The vessel reached her dock at
Baltimore the following night She
carried a valuable cargo OF dyestuffs.
The trip constituted a record voyage
for. a craft of the kind, approximately
1000 miles in 16 davs.
The sub-sea vessel started ON her
return trip August l with a cargo OF
rubber and nickel, lodged through a
Gordon of hostile warships watching
for her outside the three-mile limit,
and arrived safely off Bremen after
a voyage of 90 days.
1t was said today that in the future
all German submarines coming to the
United States, whether naval or mer.
chantmen. will make either New Lon
don or Newport their port OF call. No
more submarines will enter Hampton
Roads, because of the danger of nets
being dropped to trap them off the
Virginia Capes.

nets dropped there might endanger
American vessels, and German Off

Why ltHappened

Our old friend, N. M. Everett-Mr.
Everett, of Newton, if you please
editor of the Hickory Middle-Buster
who commits criminal assault ON the
English language when he is not mud
ding matters in the legislature, is
highly indignant because the Missis-
sippi Centennial Exposition selected
q member of The Daily News staff as
director of publicity for that big
event.
Mr.. Everett simply can't understand
why a Bilbo administration would give
a $4,000 per year position to Howard
S. Williams, city editor of the Daily
News, and discourses on the subject
as follows:
IF the Bilbo crowd has gone into
the office of the Jackson News to hand
out a $4,000 job, when scores of others
who sacrificed business, friends and
time and sweated blood and brine for
Bilbo when the News and its bunch
we're trying to put Bilbo in the peni-
tentiary, want such jobs, then every.
thing that the News ever said about
Bilbo would be true, if Bilbo endorsed
this appointment We can't believe
he did. We can't believe that Lee Rus
sell, Swep Taylor, A. G. Anderson or
NJ. S. Conner endorsed it. It must be
q mistake. 1t can't be true. 1t is inn
possible for Bilbo and the Jackson
News to become so familiar" "a,
Cease your weeping, Mr.. Everett
and permit us to explain.
The Mississippi Centennial Exposi.
ton wanted first-class newspaper
nan as director of publicity.
The exposition directors knew that
there was only one place in Mississip-
ii where they could find such man.
and that was in the office of the Daily
News.
The only place to find first-class
newspaper man is in the office Of a
irst.class newspaper. Even BilbO had
enso enough to recognize this fact.
Aud that's The reason why Howard
5, Williams was chosen. Politics cut
10 figure whatever in the matter.
There was not a Bilbo newspaper man
n all this broad state-not even the
ditor OF the Hickory Middle Buster
whom the directors regarded as
ompetent for the place.
Being a first-class newspaper. 1t is
1ut natural that the Daily News should
mploy frst-class newspaper men.
rom the selfish viewpoint, we regret
cry much to lose the services of Mr..
Williams, and we have consented to
10 so only because we want to see the
Centennial Exposition made a COM
,lete success.-7Jaekson Daily News.
