Behind Lights
BY HARLAN 7. SIETsOk

season for sunspots. During this last
year, they have occurred in greater
size and numbers than at any time
since 1870.
More displays of the northern lights
have been seen during the last few
months than at any time for many
years - they always stage their best
show when the sun is staging his. For
there is a pretty close connection BE-
tween sunspots and the polar lights.
The show isn't over yet. We are due
for more northern lights this spring
and summer.
Science has good reason for believ-
ing that the northern lights are caused
by a peculiar radiation from the sun
during its epidemic of sunspots. Like
the glowing red gas of neon sign, the
upper atmosphere of the earth, sixty
to one hundred miles high, becomes
heavily charged with electricity, and
CLOVIS for much the same reason as a
neon light glows.
Observers in Norway who have
counted appearances of the polar
lights for over $50 years find that they
may range from less than a dozen a
year. when sunspots are scarce, to
some 200 or more. 1t seems to take
some time after the sunspot maximum
for the earth's atmosphere to work up
to its most agitated state. In fact, the
northern lights are In general most
brilliant a year or 50 after the sunspots
have passed their peak.
This year of 1898. therefore, should
be grand one for celestial fireworks.
