Peculiar atmospheric conditions yes
terday morning permitted the sun to
show itself for several hours, adso-
lutely Invested of its customary daz-
cling effulgence. In fact it more near
| ly resembled the moon, appearing as
pale, cold disk, which could be scrut-
inized with the naked eye with no in
convenience. In fact, some could dis
Germ the spots, while others ex-
pressed the idea that the luminous orb
may have finally burned itself out.
However, we are pleased to say that
the scintillating rays were in their
| usual position before the day had
passed.
