ed as final. From such maps as have been published of the path of the eclipse, however, there is no doubt of the fact that this town is very close to the northern border of the belt of totality. To all intents and purposes, the eclipse will be total here, and to the non-scientific observer this, especially, will be as good a point for observation as elsewhere. on For Charlotte.

Careful Arrangements That Are Being Made By the Government For Its Observation. Preparations of an elaborate nature are going on in those parts of Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, North and South Carolina, in the area of totality, for observing the solar eclipse Monday, May 28, says an Atlanta dispatch of Sunday. Observations will be made by parties at Thomaston, Barnesville, Indian Crtxlnnrc fjriffin TTninn Point. Wash , , ingtou and other points in Georgia ; Pioehurst and Wadesboro, N. C.; Thompson, Ala., and other points where clear weather is generally to be expected at this time of year. . Probably the two most important eclipse stations in Georgia are those at Thomaston and Barnesville. Lick observatory sent Prof. W. W. Campbell, senior astronomer on the observatory staff, and Prof. C. D. Perrine with a quantity of valuable apparatus, to establish a station at Thomaston. The period of totality, when the sun will be entirely in the eclipse, will be one minute and 25 seconds. Dur ing these 85 seconds, if the day be clear, Prof. Campbell expects to secure about 40 valuable photographs showing the different phases of the sun and its corona. About 16 scientists will be in Prof. Campbell's party and the entire number will be needed to properly handle the instruments. Beginning tomorrow Prof. Campbell will spend the entire week in drilling his assistants, to eliminate, as far as possible, the chance of a hitch during the two men before Burns could rise. ROBERT HARDY'S SEVEN DAYS BY Rev. Charles M. Sheldon Author of "IN HIS STEPS" We take great pleasure in announcing that we have secured the serial rights for Dne of the best stories yet written by the author of "In His Steps" and that it will be published in these columns The above picture illustrates one of the many stirring and dramatic incidents. It is as fascinating as "In His Steps," a book that has had more readers than any book published in many years. BE SURE TO READ IT brief period in which all the observations must be made. Two Holland astronomers, Prof. A. A. Nyland, director of the Utrecht observatory, and Dr. J. H. Witterdink, astronomer in the Leiden University, arrived in New York on May 14. Tbev will not reach Tbomaston, however, until next Thursday, their plan being to visit the various eclipse stations along the path of totality down the Atlantic coast, beginning with the Smithsonian Institution party at Wadesboro,. N. C. The United States Naval observatory at Washington has established an eclipse station with elaborate equipment, at Baruesville, iu charge of Prof. Milton UpdegrafF. Several parties arrived in the eclipse territory last week, bringing with them iustrumeuts of priceless value for use in their observations. Are Wk Glal> or Sorry??The Associated Press gives the following account of an interesting discussiou in the senate last Friday : Senator McCumber, of North Dakota, then spoke on the Philippine question. He said it was our commercial, financial and naval interests to retain the islands. He referred incidentally to the Civil war, and what he believed to be the present feeling of the southern people toward the Union. He thought all the people of the Uniou were happy now to be under one Hug and in one government. Senator Tillman, of South Carolina, thereupon declared that not 10 per cent, of the white people of the south were today glad that the Confederacy had been defeated, or what they fought for bad been rejected. In fact, he thought 95 per cent, of thesou'hern people were sorry they had been defeated. "Does the senator fro n South Carolina mean to say," interjected Senator Walcott, "that Do per cent, of the southern white people regret that they were defeated and that this Union was not divided ?" "Well," replied Senator Tillman, "perhaps 95 per cent is too high." Senator Butler interrupted to say that he could not corroborate the statement of Senator Tillman. A minute later when Senator Caffery, of Louisiana, rose to make an inquiry, Senator Wolcott asked him if he shared in the opinion thut 95 per cent, of the Soutberu white people regretted now that the rebelliou had failed and that the Uuion remained undivided? "I do not," replied Senator Caflery. A Contemporary is Puzzled ? The mutations in politics are among the most interesting of all studies. A few years ago about one-third of the white people of South Carolina were tlyiug at Senator Tilltnau's throat and had murder in their hearts for him. Judging from the reading of our Palmetto exchanges, Mr. Tillman has captured the entire kop, the Greenville News alone excepted.?Charlotte Observer. AT THE CHURCHES. BAPTIST. REV. J. B.
