TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE SUN TO
 BE OBSERVED
Scientists and Others Are Preparing to View It from Top of Pike's
 Peak.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Feb. 21.- lists an opportunity to witness the total eclipse of the sun on June 8th, Spencer Penrorse of Colorado Springs, Colo, President of the Pikes Peak Automobile Highway Company, has invited several hun dred astronmers of the United States Canada and Mexico to view the phe- nomenon from the summit of Pikes Peak, 14,1O9 feet above the level of the sea. Pikes peak is in the direct line of the total eclipse and offic- ials of the Naval Almanac office of the United States Naval Observa- tory, say that it is one of the coun- try's most favorable locations for eclipse expeditions.
 No such extensive shadow path has passed over the country since the eclipse of 1878 when view of the corona was obtained by Profes- soh Langley and his party of Unit ed States naval observers on Pikes Peak.
 The automobile highway up the famous peak will be used for trans portation of the various scientific instruments necessary for observing and recording the eclipse.
 The eclipse will last about 100 sec onds at Pikes Peak. While cross ing the United States in 47 minutes it will pass through Colorado Springs at 4.23 D. m, Mountain time.
