Baker, Ore, June S.-Untimely
twilight, fast followed by deeper
darkness, swept over a strip OF the
northwest fifty miles wide today,
when the solar eclipse, predicted by
astronomers, came to pass. The phe-
nomenon found noted scientists here
to study and photograph the suns
corona and spectrum. Definite con-
clusions drawn from these observa-
tions will be available only after COM
parison~of results attained and de-
auctions as to their significance, The
observations were declared to be sue
cessful slight cloudiness being the
only drawback.
Those devotng their time to study
of the corona We're amply rewarded
for the wonderfully colored glowing
and pulsating light nearly equally diff
fused about the sun surface, whose
prominences also were plainly visible.
Those watching for effects on pature
were also rewarded, for crescent
shaped shadows on the ground were
seen and in some cases where cloth
was spread mysterious and unexplain-
ed shadow bands We're observed, al
though some failed altogether of re-
suits in this particular detail of study.
Scientifically Successful.
Scientifically the eclipse as observed
by astronomers of the United States
naval observatory was successful. Be-
lief was expressed that development
of plates of more than fifty photo
graphs made, win almost if not quite
solve the few remaining problems as
to solar atmosphere and distance
from sunsurface.
While the sky was not entirely clear
light hazy clouds prevailing. these are
not believed to have seriously hamp-
cred observations.
I'VE secured fine results undoubt-
edly," said j. c. Hammond, head OF
the naval observatory party. The
thin clouds hindered little, if any.
