OBSERVATION MOST SUCCESSFUL.
The astronomical event of the century
passed off most successfully for the ob
servers at-- this point of the path of total
i;y. the phenomenon brining to the face
of iU'.ture a weirdness and grandeur most
beautiful and inspiring. The Period of
totality wns longer than was expected,
i ■•!!? enough, in fact, to permit observers
to take in all of the beauty of the corona,
'nd then to glance around at the land^
Feape ?.n.l notice the effect. The water
presented a gloomy picture, and low
flown next the earth there was a touch of
r- -'I. which resembled a sunset.

Taking of Scientific Ditii Knti'rely
Successful— Some Discoveries.
ATLANTA, GA.. May 2S— ln every sec
lion of the Southeastern States to-day,
over which the belt of totality o" the
sun's c-clipse extended the weather was
ideal for the observation of this remarka
ble phenomenon. In the southern por
tion of Alabama, there was some hazi
ness, but other than this the astronomers
and scientists who located their observa
iorie«r in North and South Caralina.
Georgia, Alabama and Louisiana report
that the weather could not have been
more auspicious for the study of the
sun's eclipse, and to secure splendid
Photographs of the details attending the'
passage of the great orbs.
From the many stations of observation
established by universities and scientific;
and private parties the reports indicate
that the taking of scientific data was en
t>] ely successful.
The two most notable features of the
day were the discovery by Professor
Lord, of the Ohio State "University. w 7 ho
believes that he obtained results to tend
to prove that the' mysterious matter
which forms the corona is to be found
also in the solar prominences, and that
of ti,- existence of protuberances on the
sun as reported by Professor Pickering.
( f Harvard.
From the standpoint of grandeur the
spectacle was awe-inspiring. The move
ments of the heavenly bodies were rapid.
-*<>t over five seconds lapsed from the
T'me of first contact until the givat
shadow was sr^n sweeping over the
earth from the southwest. Just as the
moon, covered the face of the sun. Mer
cury came into prominence.
ONE PROBLEM UNSOLVED.
What constitutes the gaseous element
surrounding the sun, however, has not
x-vn determined, aiid if any astronomer
nas solved this problem he has not com
s'iHitu himself to-night.
The raited States Naval Observatory
achieved splendid, success at bom
karaehvi!i fi and Griflin. Professor Upde-
Braff, v.ho directed the work, at the gov
tr.?.ln ' ::it station at BarnesviHe. says:
" rhe weather and conditions * were

"We secured twenty photographs on the

XAVAL. OIISERVATORY I'AHTY;
Hearts of ilie Astronomers llniniy
Over Results' Oli.tnined. ..
SAVANNAH. GA.. May 28.— The Morn
ing News has the following special from
Professor Otis Ashmore, of the Naval
Observatory party at Barnesyille, Ga. :
"The great total eclipse of the , sun
passed" off .to-day on schedule time under
the most favorable conditions, and the
hearts of the astronomers are happy
with the hope that the results will prove
a great contribution to astrbnomical
science.
"The first contact was observed by Pro
fessors Hill, of the Naval Observatory,
and Ashmore". of" Savannah. In both in
struments ' the contact was sharp and
distinct." and both observers were in close
accord with each other and with the com
puted time. ■ .
A, SLIGHT CHILLINESS. -. ;.
"Within'half an hour after the ■first
contact the landscape began to take on
a peculiar, gloomy appearance, and a.
slight chilliness was noticeable. As the
•lin<> of totality approached' every obser
ver was in position, and nothing but the
measured beats of the electric sounder,
marking off the .time in 'unison with the
great Observatory clock in Washington,
could be heard. Every "eye was directed
to that position of the sum's limb where
the contact was to appear.
"Suddenly, the black, ragged edge of
the moon obtruded itself upon the bright
disc of the sun, and gradually stealing
across it's surface, the eclipse was on.
For the next hour but "little observation
Was made or needed. During this time,
however. the observing party went
through another drill to get ready for the
supreme moments of totality.
THE UMBRA.
"Over on a high hill one mile to the
north "an- observer was stationed to an
nounce, the coming shadow from the
southwest. The horizon was clear for
many miles, and soon the black wall of
the onrushing umbra was seen approach
ing with" the velocity of a. cannon-bail. In
a few seconds it overwhelmed our sta
tion, and the total phase. was. upon us.
"Instantly from all sides of the sun
there flashed a beautiful corona, of a
wonderful, pearly lustre, extending itselt
on opposite sides of the sun in the shape
of a double' fan. It was just such a corona
as 1 had expected.
SOLAR PROMINENCES, i ,
"The solar prominences were plainly
visible, and especially were they marked
in extent, in the western limb. I saw but
few polar streamers, but these were dis
tinct.
••In the brief space of eighty-three se
conds twenty photographs were obtained
on the solar axis and four in the photo
heliograPh. I succeeded in getting a good
crayon sketch of the corona and promi
nences by special arrangement with Dr.
Aiken. of Savannah; and Professor Chap
pell, of Milledgeville.
SHADOW BANDS.
i The shadow' bands were carefully ob
served, and Dr. Aiken, in his own skilful
way, photographed them, but it is not yet
known that this was successful. If so,
Dr. Aiken will have the distinguished
honor, of being the first to succeed in this
delicate work. ■
"Soon the flash of the sun, as it reap
peared, announced the end of totality,
and the corona disappeared as' suddenly
as it came into view. For an hour or
more the moon slowly crawled off the disc
of the sun, without special' incident.
MANY SNAP-SHOTS.
"Many amateur -photographers took
snap-phots at the corona, and, it is to be
hoped, with some success. The whole phe
nomenon was most beautiful and most in
structive. ■-■':■.:■
"Some photographs will be developed
here, but most of them will be taken to
Washington for more careful manipula
tion. The observing party will leave for
Washington in a few\days." \

l'roniinences.
WADESBOKO', N. C, May 28.— The
scientific men of America aiid England,
who have heen located here for weeks
past; preparing, for the eclipse of the
sun.^were blessed with perfect conditions
for their work.
Professor Young, of Princeton, observed
specially for the green line of the spec
trum,, due to the unknown. gas known as
"Coronium," but at the critical moment
his sight failed and the opportunity was
lost.
Rev. Mr; Quinby, of Berwyn, near
Philadelphia, was observer for. sun spots.
Professor H. H. Clayton, of the. Blue
Hills meteorological observatory, , took
the change -in temperature. The record
shows -a fall of S and a rise of 15.
:- ONE THING SETTLED.
Professor J. "B. Coit; of Boston, watch
ing the corona and , protubances, settled
one very important matter— that is,- that
there were no white prominences in this
particular eclipse. ' ■ v
Professor Coit is satisfied that the re
sults of to-day's observations; will be a
better knowledge of the corona and the
heat radiations from the different •; parts
of the corona, and that scientists will
learn more of the form' and. direction and
the curvature of the corona .streamers.

Discovery of Eros.
DENVER, COL., May. 25.-Professor H.

while watching for the eclipse, made one
of the most, important- observations of
the year— the rediscovery of the planet
Eros. This tiny planet, which was dis
covered only two years ago at.- the -Berlin
Observatory, has been looked for since
last September, the time when, according
to calculations, it should-emerge from be

TRIPOLI, May . 2S.— The eclipse expe
dition,' under Professor Todd, of Amherst
College, completed successful .observa
tions, with twenty telescopes, including
a 24-inch telescope. The corona was seen
for Jifty-two seconds, and was an exact
duplicate of that of January, ISS9, com
pletely confirming the eleven-year period
of the corona variation with the sun's
spots. The weather was splendid.
THE ECLIPSE IN lIICIIMOXD.
Tlie Obscuration AVn.s Xenrly Total—
Created Miicli Interest.
Although the eclipse of the sun was. not
total in Richmond, for two hours yester
day morning the '"obscuration was ob
served by the people of this city. Busi
ness was, to a very great extent, sus
pended from 7, or a little later, until
after 9 o'clock. East windows were filled
with faces, and knots of people w-ere
gathered on the corners or in the yards,
observing" the phenomenon. All had the
smoked glass to their eyes, or had on
colored spectacles. Many persons went
to 'the Capitol Square to observe the
spectacle.
The eclipse was nearly total. Appa
rently about five sixths of the face of
Sol was hidden by Luna's shadow at 8:53
o'clock, when^ the obscuration was great
est. The darkness at that" period was
about as great as at twilight. But it
was not a twilight darkness. There was
a weird, uncanny, shee^ over everything.
Men at , a little distance appeared as
if walking through a palpable haze. It
was like the* gloaming of Walpurgis
night, if 'gloamings usher .in Walpurgis
nights. . , : : :
To the observer. who held his watch it
was very apparent that at. 7 minutes to
9' o'clock : the obscuration was- greatest.
At that time there was only a slender
crescent . of the planet visible. In' two
minutes . this disappeared, but at the
same time, another began to appear at
the opposite edge. But the shadow pass
ed quite slowly, and it , was thirty min-.
utes later' before the sun once more
showed his unclouded face and the world
took up its work again.- . .
The scene in the belt" of "..'totality* "was
probably more interesting, and certainly
more valuable from a scientific point of
view, but the spectacle as seen in a less
favored locality .was beautiful and im
pressive. People regard the sun as the
one sure thing after the earth beneath
their feet. ' and' when he .refuses to shine
in a cloudless sky at daytime the spec
tacle is naturally, interesting and awe
inspiring. ; The shadow over his face and
the eerie twilight over the world made a
scene-men will long remember. iaey
are not likely. to witness it again.
Death Caused by tlie Eeliiise.
The eclipse was attended with fatal re
sults' in this city. . . ■ „ \
Emma'v.Hill, a colored _'» woman, residing
at 'No; '747-1-2 north Ninth street, became
violently excited as the sun began
darken at about 8 o'clock, and as the
shadow moved across the orb her excite
ment increased,^ and finally terminated in
an apoplectic stroke. She, never spoke or
nioved again, and died at 7- o'clock last
night, v - \ : .--.-■ . ■
% There were a number of people reported
to have been rnado ill by- nervousness in
duced by the eclipse, despite". the fact that
the newspapers had teemed .with accounts
of the spectacle which would be presented
yesterday morning. -There were several
whites- among those thus affected, .al
