terested in the approaching total
eclipse Of the sun, which occurs on the

is OF particular interest to observers
OF this country. as 1t Is the only one
which will occur under weather con-
ditions favorable to good observa-
tions on United States territory until
1916. nearly a quarter of a century
hence. There will be an eclipse of

the northeastern section of the coun

( The Mexican government is making
special arrangements to entertain the
astronomers: who journey far and
near to observe this eclipse. It is
said that Camille Flammarion, the
director Of the Paris observatory, has
notified the Mexican government that
he will head an expedition which is
to establish headquarters in Durango.
