ORB OF DAY.
Tlie followlns' notes ure compiled from
a lecture delivered at the Drexel Insti
tute re.ently by Professor Charles A.
oiinar, of Princeton university:
'('lie earth derives 99 per cent, of Its en
er.'V f-vm the sun.
Mebeoiin nhowra Rive rise to the
treater proportion of the renmlning 1 per
cmt. 1ie stars hIsj feebly help.
our sun Is but one of thousands of oth
eis of equal or nrvuter magnitude.
Wind power Is derive! from the tin
tiiuiil healing of various portions of the
-ailli by the sun's rays.
Water power is derived from the evap
oration of water by the nun's hent and its
deposition on hiirlilunds in the form of
mow or rain.
Plunt life Is directly dependent on the
sun for light and heat.
Mui-culur power Is derived from the con
sumption of food, either animal or veg
etable, the energy of which is directly
traceable to the sun.
Steam power is the Ptoretl-up energy of
the sun's rays in past ages in the forrit of
coal bottled sunshine, as it has been
called.
. TJ.'.'Ldl5,!,r(,e of ,he ",SI t"m the earth
lrm.QW.im million miles.
Tne earth and moon could be placed
Irtslue the sun If It was hollowed out,
without disturbing the present relations,
ana the moon would revolve at a distance
about half way to the surface.
The determination of the distance of
the sun is known to be accurate within
one-quarter of 1 per cent.
The sun's distance Is equal to about
times the diameter of the earth
A train running at 65 miles an hour
wou.d reach the sun in 175 years.
At the rate of two cents a mile, the
fui ,he 8un would be about Sl.500.0oj.
The liRht-year Is the astronomical unit
of slellar distances.
The apparent diameter of the sun Is
about one-half degree.
Suns to the number of 710 eould be ar
ranged around the circle of the horizon.
If the energy of the sun Is only rad
iated from It in the direction of other ma
terial bodies, and not In all directions,
the shrinkage theory affords a satisfac
tory explanation of all known phenomena.
A base ball compared to a sphere 1.7
fet In diameter gives the relative Size
or the earth and sun.
The sun's bulk is 1,300 times that of
the earth.
The mass of the sun is 320,000 times that
of the earth.
The. f2,rie of gravity at the sun's sur
jli".? a x,v!.e ereater than the force of
gravity on the eartb.
An average sized person would weigh
a ton on the sun's surface.
The average density of the sun Is only
a quarter of that of the earth.
LHr"?"'. a"eptel theory was ad
vanced by Helmholti In 1831 The shrink
age of the sun's surface gives rise to heat
in the same manner as any failing body
. 7,..a?' Jar Instance, when a heavy
weight is dropped from a great height.
1 he average density of the sun may be
compared to the density of water.
V e ."""" see the sun Itself, we see
only the cleud or vapor shell that covers
"bke the mantle of a Welsbach burner.
J never get nearer than a hundred
miles optically of the moon, even with the
most powerful telescopes.
The temperature of the sun's surface
has been measured and determined to be
between 12,010 and 20.00 degrees Fahren
neit. The most accurate determinations of the
sun s temperature, made by Wilson and
Oray, lu Ireland, place It as 14,000 degrees
Fahrenheit.
This termination Is correct within 1,000
decreets.
At very small distances within the
Pun a surface the temperature rises Just
s It does In the earth.
The high temperature of the sun Is not
maintained by combustion; of this astron
omers are sure. If the temperature was
maintained In this way the sun would
have burnt out long ego. Shrinkage In
sire Is the now accepted theory of the
source of the sun's heat and light.
The rotation of the sun in a magnetic
fleid has been advanced as a possible
cause of the sun's heat. This is dis
proved by the fact that If It were so the
sun s rotation would have been so Im
peded as to have completely stopped
wl'hln two years.
The theory of meteors colliding with the
Sun. an old and once popular Idea ad
vanced In accounting for the sun's heat.
Is now rejected.
If the sun contracts 300 foot In diameter
een year It would take something like
7l0 years to detect it with our largest
1 -IfaCOpeS.
if the sun was enclosed In a mass of
I -e 6i) feet thick It would be on minute
hi melting It.
The atm is giving us thirty, calories of
IBB I M
heat for every square metre of surface,
or about 2 horse wer of energy for
each square metre.
The radiation of the heat from the sun
Is not eternal: it bad its beginning uiel
will have Its end.
If the sun radiates light and heat In
all directions It cannot be more than 100.
(..i.flea years old. This is Urd Kelvin's es
timate. At the present rate the sun will con
tinue from seven to fifteen millions of
years, but the end will surely come.
The actlnometer Is one Instrument by
which the sun's heat Is measured. It
balances the radiation from a body at a
known temperature against a beam of
sunshine. An allowance has to be made
for the absorption by the earth's at
mosphere. The meldometer and radio-micrometer
are the instruments used by Wilson and
Uray In the accurate determinations above
referred to. The principle of the meldo
meter Is the balancing of an electric cur.
rent generated by slowing the sun's rays
to fall on a thermopile against the elec
tric current generated by an incandescent
platinum strip of known temperature act
ing on a similar thermopile.
Attempts have been made to utilize the
sun's heat to do useful mechanical work,
and Krlcssoii, the Swedish inventor, de
vised a form of engine in which the rays
were rellected from and concentrated by
a curved mirror upon a small pipe rilled
with water, steam being thereby gener
ated, w hich wns utilized to drive a steam
engine, and furnishing power to run a
printing press of two horse power ca
lamity. It Is suggested that where sunshine may
be depended upon, as in Egypt and other
tropical countries where fuel is scarce,
the Ericsson engine might be commer
cially useful.
The sun consols of three parts, the
central portion, or nucleus, which is gas
eous, but rendered viscous under the enor
mous pressure and hijih temperature; the
photosphere of Incandescent metallic va
pors, and the corona, which is only ob
servable during the time of total eclipse.
Among the elements most character
istic of the sun are hydrogen, the recently
discovered helium and Iron.
The corona consists of a gas as yet un
discovered on the earth, but known to
exist in other stars, it is characterized
by a line in the aree spectrum.
Sun spots are comparatively dark
patches upon the sun's surface.
it is believed that the sun spots are
cavities In the surface rendered dark by
some cooling action.
The sun's suri'aeu Is so Intensely bright
thai an electric light held ugainst it
would look black.
Sun soots change In structure from mo
ment to moment.
Durlim certain definite sensons of the
year sun spots travel across the sun's
surface in traight band. During oilier
ilellnlte sensors of the year they truvul
across the surface In curves.
Sun spots occur In greater or less num
bers, new ones forming and old ones dis
appearing constantly. There Is a maxi
mum number at periods about eleven
years apart, according to observations
made continuously during the presen cen
tury. Attempts have been made to connect the
outbreak of sun spots with almost every
thing from financial crisis and the price
of wheat to outbreaks of cholera.
The only real concordance between sun
spots and terrestrial happenings is the
fact that magnetic storms are more nu
merous and vary In Intensity in a re
markuble manner vtith the size and num
ber of sun spots.
These magnetic storms and sun spots
may be related to each other, in that
they may both be caused by the same
agency, and not by each other's agency.
.11 AI D MI'LLEK.
Maud Muller, on a summer's day.
Mounted her wheel ujiJ roJe uwuy.
Heneath her blue cap glowed a wealth
Of lai'te red freckles and Mrst-rute health.
Singing, she rode, and her merry glee
Frightened the sparrow from his tree.
But when she was several miles from
town,
Upon the hill-slope, rousting down.
The sweet song died, and a vasue unrest
And a sort of tenor tilled her bteast
A fear that she hardly dared to own,
For what it her wheel should striae a
stone!
The Judge Scorched swiftly down the
road
Just then she hoard his tire explode!
He rarlred his wheel Into the shade
Of the apple trees, to uwult the niuid.
And he asked her If she would kindly loan
Iter pump to him, as lie' J lost his own.
She left her wheel with a sprightly Jump,
And in less than a Jiffy produced iter
pump.
And she Muslitd as she gave It, looking
down
At her feet, once hid by a trailing gown.
Then snl l the Judge, os he pumped away,
" "i'is very line vw.atlier we're having to
day.'1 He spoke of the grass and flowers and
trees;
Of twenty-mile runs and centuries;
And Maud forgot that no trailing gown
Was over her bloomers hanging down.
But the tire was fixed, alack-a-day!
The Judgu remounted and rode away.
"My father should have a brand-new
wheel
Of the costliest make and the finest steel.
"And I'd give one to ma of the same de
sign. So that she'd cease to borrow mine."
The Judge looked back, as he climbed
the hill.
And saw Maud Muller standing still.
"A prettier face and a form more fair
I've seldom gazed at, I declare!
"Would she were mine, and I todav
Could make her put those bloomers ;
But he thought of his sisters, proud and
cold.
And he shuddered to think how they
would scold
If he should, one of these nfternoons,
Come down with a bride in pantaloons!
He marlred a wife of richest dower,
Who had never succumbed to the bloom,
crs' power;
Tcf, oft while watching the smoke
wreaths curl,
He thought of that freckled bloomer girl;
Of the way she stood there, pigeon-toed,
While he was pumping beside the road.
She married a man who clerked In a stor.e
And many children played round her door.
And then her bloomersbrought her Joy!
She cut them down for her oldest boy.
But still of the Judge she often thought.
And sighed o'er the loss that her bloom
ers wrought.
Or wondered If wearing them was a sin.
And then confessed: "It might have
been."
Alas for the Judge! Alas for maid!
Dreams were their only stock In trade.
For of all wise words of tongue or pen.
The wisest are these: "Leave pants for
men!"
Ah, well! For us all hope still remains
For the bloomer girl and the man of
brains,
And, In the hereafter, bloomers may
lie not allowed to block the way!
Buffalo Commercial.
A LITTLE BOOK.
I picked It out among the lot
Of scattered books upon the stand; '
Half-worn, untreasured and forgot
Something Impelled, I knew not what,
As I their the dusty titles scanned
To pick It out among the lot
Of books for sale at second-hand.
"Love Poems" were the only words,
In faded gilt upon the cover;
The same sweet songs our mothers read
Of skies and flowers and lilting birds
It was a nice discover
To read the lyrles that had stirred
The real old-fashioned lover.
"Old-fohloned!" that had slipped my
pen;
Forgive the word I've written.
Lovers today are much as then.
Maidens are maidens, men are men.
And girls' hearts will be smitten
While love shall lost; and. again.
Why lovers get the mitten. '
Whose was the book? No name appears
I'pon the stained lly-leaf.
Hre is a mark, there stilus of tears.
And here a corner turned "dog-ears"
That Is all; a little sheaf
Of lovers' verse of other years,
Like seaweed on the counter's reef.
-Fuck.
MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Hcview.
New York, Nov. 5. Today's stock
market was a comparatively tame
affair when contrasted with the excep
tional activity and wide fluctatlons of
yesterday. The transactions aggregated
only 3S3.277 shares. Taken altogether
the tendency was toward a lower range
of values the fact that several
stocks displayed great strength at in
tervals they did not prevent almost
the entire list from closing under last
night's final quotations. The most for
midable attack of the day was made
soon after delivery hour when rumors
gained currency In the stock exchange
that there was some doubt about the
electoral vote of Indiana and Kentucky
and that Consul General Lee had made
a report to the pretddent concerning
the Cuban situation which would be
followed by a warlike policy on the
part of the administration. Whether
true or false these stories exercised an
adverse influence and the market
yielded under pressure to sell for both
long and short accounts. Sugar broke
over five points to 116. It finally
rallied to In the earlier trad
ing Tobacco had jumped from 79V to
84 on the announcement that the di
rectors -had declared a cash dividend
of 4 per cent, on the common stock.
The stock afterwards broke to 79.
Chicago Gas for a time was another
strong feature. It rose from 75 to 77ai
on statements which were believed to
emanate from trustworthy sources that
the directors would resume dividends
either this week or next. The stock
finally receded to Tafo 78. In the af
ternoon prices showed declines from
last night's closing of to 3 per cent,
in the general run of stocks. Manhat
tan was an exception, rising to 97 "4.
The market closed weak at a recovery
from the lowest of to 1 per cent.
The net changes show losses of llfjl per
cent.
