I TOTAL ECLIPSE OF cum ic cpiicmii en

. UUII IU UUIILUUULU ' - Some Portions of the United States May See the Spectacle Today. (American News Service) - Washington. April 28. If conditions are favorable the southern and far western portions of the United States will be treated to a partial performance by old Sol this afternoon when lie hides himself behind the moon. At best, however, the view of the solar eclipse will be a very unsatisfactory one so far as-the North American continent Is . concerned. As partial eclipse It will be vlsable In that part of the United States bins; south of-a Sine drawn from Cape llenlopen, on the coast of Delaware, to Astoria. Oregon. On the Pacific coast the eclipse begins at about 3 p. m. Along the eastern coast south of Washington there will be a very small partial eclipse, the sun setting with the eclipse on It. In New York and New England and throughout tbe Dominion of Canada the eclipse will be wholly Invisible. Tbe path of the tela! eclipse Is a very large one, but It Is wasted almost wholly In tho southern waters of the Pacific ocean, extending from southeastern Australia to Central America. The only points on land where observations can be made are in the 8ainoan and Friendly Islands, where totality will last nearly five minutes. The best points for the observation of this strangest of all heavenly phenomena are the upraised corai-formed Islands known as the Vavau -end Tofua of the Santoan group. The hills or mountain peaks there flse from 1.S00 to 2,000 feet In tbe air from the placid waters of the Pacific. On these Islands eminent groups of scientists aent out by universities and royal societies have set up Instruments with long, unpronouncable names for the purpose of taking observations of the eclipse.. The Solar Physics Observatory, at'8outh Kensington, England, has sent to the Island of Vavau an expedition headed by Sir Norman Lockyer. Another notable party of German scientists, headed by Dr. Wegener,, has established quarters on, the Island of Tau in American Samoa. During the few minutes of total eclipse the scientists hope to obtain photographs which will enable them to define at least two or three of the uncertain chemical elements of the sun. It la known that there are seventy-five such elements; of these sixty have been detected and definitely determlnd and fifteen yet lack definition. Heretofore It , has almost always Mftn found Impossible to transport the best Instruments to the favorable points of observation, but today mora different kinds of strange things are to be pointed at old Sol than ever before In the history of that gentleman. The British expedition took with it three great telescopic cameraa In order that photographs might be taken of the corona the radlent light which during a total solar eclipse surrounds the dark disc. Each, telescope Is of a different scale In order that varying photographs may be obtained. The expedition has also a six-Inch 'prismatic camera which contains four prisms, each of which la ten inches square. The, prisms, acting between the sun and the lens, split the light Into different colors, each color Indicating a different element. - French Diverse Law.

The Hero of General Wallace's Powerful Play.

A i Local Theaters

At the Murray. Can you imagine taking a handker chief from a person in the audience, cutting a circle out of the middle to mark It, putting the handkerchief in water and stretching it then dipping It again in the water and have it shrink, then by the use of some magic perfume used on the handkerchief restoring it to its former condition; this and other tricks of a like nature Is what McMullen and Rheda are doing at the Murray this week. Evelyn Ware has a line of popular songs that she is well able to sing. 8he has a clear and pleasing voice and ah exquisite wardrobe making three complete changes at each performance. " . Ford and Laird continue to please as do the Bama Bama Girls who have become so popular with the people this week. The Bama Bama Girls consists of seven' girls and one lone man. the girls being good singers, dancers and very pretty and the man being one of the best comedians available. Mrs. Browne the popular local artist Is singing "When My Dreams Come .True" this week. The words and music are by Miss Bertha Grace Robie of t'his city who has composed numerous pieces that have become popular. Ben-Hur." It is believed that "Ben-Hur" gained for General Lew Wallace the appointment to Constantinople. Mr. Harper, of the publishing firm who put this master work in the hands of the public, relates the following incident in support of that theory. He says : "I called on President Garfield one evening, and he came into the room with the book 'Ben-Hur' in his hands, with fingers between the pages. 'Do you . know anything about the composition of this book you have published?' the President asked. T think I do,' I replied. 'Well.' said Garfield, 'it has made a good impression on me. I offered Wallace a place In South 'America, which he would not take. I think I will send him to Turkey in the place made vacant by Horace Maynerd's death. 'Ben-Hur' Indicates that he can Improve his opportunities in the East." General Wallace's commission as Minister Resident of the United States to-Turkey was dated. "At the City of Washington on the nineteenth day of May. in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and eighty-one, and of the independence of the United States of America one hundred and fifth." while across the left hand corner is written in chirography of President Garfield, 'Ben-Hur. General Wallace, having in mind a novel based on Orientalism, and desiring to learn all he could of their intrigues, their states-craft, their valor and their home life, accepted the appointment. In his official capacity he had access to the Turkish archives and was enabled to verify the historical facts he wished to use. The result of his research and labor was his later book "The Prince of India." The Passion Play. Mr. Henry Ellsworth, the noted traveler and lecturer, with his pictorial reproduction of "Oberammergau. Its People and Their Passion Play of 1910," has been winning money and great fame In New York city during the season. In October he gave his most interesting lecture and exhibited his 300 beautiful views at the Gaiety theater and was so successful that a larger auditorium was. required. Mr. Ellsworth presented his entertainment at the Lyric theater and met with such favor that on New Year's Sunday he was transferred to the New York Hippodrome tbe largest theater In America and succeeded la packing the great bouse from

as "Ben Hur"

pit to dome during both afternoon and evening. There is no man in America as familiar with his subject as is Mr. Ellsworth (he has resided at Oberammergau during the past eleven summers) and certainly none is as well equipped for ' giving public exhibitions of that knowledge. Mr. Ellsworth will present his pictorial reproduction in this city at the Coliseum, Friday evening, May 5. under the auspicies of the U. T. C. in-precisely the same manner as he did so succesfully at the New York Hippodrome recently. 304 correctly colored exclusive views, choir singers, special music, chimese, etc. The Gentry Bros. Show With traveling cities, such as the Gentry Brothers All New Feature Shows are, there Is an army of employes, of whom the public sees nothing. These employes are entrusted with the hotel work that is incumbent upon an institution like the big Gentry Shows. Cooks, waiters and hotel car porters are conspicuous about the show solely because of their absence from view. While the multitudes, that attend the world's most classy animal exhibition, are marveling at its wonders, this corps of invisible, but never the. less valuable assistants, is busy making up the beds in the Pullman train used by the Gentry Brothers, or they are busy preparing the meals for scores of other employes who come in closer touch with the public. About the only thing in common to the Broadway hotel that cannot be found with the Gentry Brothers All New Feature Shows is the telephone. This adjunct however, is unnecessary. Every employe in the big institution knows his place and his duties. Hence conversations during the day are not needed. With the arrival of Gentry Brothers All New Feature Shows in this city Wednesday the hundreds who toil in the cause of amusement will awake to find waiting them a hearty breakfast of the best the market affords. Then the army will journey to the show grounds. A distinctive feature of Gentry Brothers commissary department Is the fact that Is buys as largely as possible on local markets. Hence the merchants of Richmond may expect ' ' patronage from the world's greatest animal exhibition when it comes to Richmond next Wednesday. "Tempest and Sunshine." "Tempest and Sunshine" a dramati sation of Mary J. Holmes' novel, will be seen at the Gennett tomorrow, matinee and night. Lena. B. Parker, who dramatized this famous book has succeeded in constructing the strongest play which has been offered at popular prices for some time and one which will prove doubly fascinating to the public. "Tempest and Sunshine" grows with interest at each succeeding act and the climax at the end is nothing short of a triumph in modern stage craft no expense or effort has been spared to make this production a feast for . the eye. The settings could scarcely be more beautiful. The play is sincere and true, scenes being laid down in "Dixie Land." CLIMATE FAILED MEDICINE CURED.

Catarrh Doctor Cures Catarrh, Acute or Chronic, or Money Back Would you pay one dollar to rid yourself of disgusting catarrh? - Then go to Leo H. Fihe's today and ask him for a Hyomei outfit and you will not only engage, but you will own outright a little catarrh doctor that

has cured more cases of catarrh than all the catarrh specialists on earth. In the fl.00 box which contains tt Hyomei outfit, you will find a little hard rubber vest pocket inhaler. . Into this inhaler you pour a few drops of Hyomei. Then all you have to do is breathe through the little inhaler, either through the nose or mouth, according to where the catarrh is located. When you breathe HYOMEI you breathe a powerful, yet soothing, antiseptic air, which as it passes over the inflamed and germ ridden membrane penetrates every fold, and crevice, and destroys germs completely. Stomach dosing never cured catarrh, 8 prays and douches always fail; and why? because they don't get where tho germs are, and as catarrh is a germ disease you must kill the germs, be fore you can cure catarrh. HYOMEI is guaranteed by Leo H. Fihe and by druggists everywhere to cure catarrh, coughs, colds, croup and sore throat. Bending of Great Guns. Among tbe problems with which army and nary engineers have to deal nowadays is that of, tbe drooping of the muzzles of excessively long guns under tbe stress of tbelr own weight. Experiments have shown that wire wound guns of twelve inch caliber and fifty feet length droop at the muzzle about four and a half minutes of arc, while built up solid guns. of the same size droop about two and a half minutes. Differences of temperature in the body of the gun also cause bendlngs. which may either Increase the droop at the muzzle or counteract it, according as it is tbe upper or under part of tbe. gun that has the higher temperature. In consequence, of these distortions projectiles ou leaving a gun have a wabbly motion, continuing up to 500 yards, and prrbab!y more. Frightened to It. It was quite a fashionable bridge party, and one of the players was a small, nervous young thing, not sure of any of ber plays and fearfully afraid of ber partner, a living proof of tbe existence of that much discussed creature, the "bridge fiend." "1 returns your lead then," said the other player frigidly, "and I am sure we would not have lost if yon hud discarded correctly. Would you mind telling me what you have been discarding from strength or weakness?" v Tbe nervous young thing lifted her eyes with a flash of spirit "From fright." sho said candidly.

MEXICAN DOVE OF PEACEJHORRIED Col. Valdez Moves 1,000 Federals into Neutral Zone Diaz Concedes.

American News Service El Paso. Tex., April 28. It looked for several hours Thursday as though the dove of peace which Is hovering over Northern Mexico during the tenure of the armistice would have some of its tail feathers plucked out. It was learned that Col. Valdez of the Mexican federals with 1,000 men, had moved into the zone set aside as neutral by the armistice and was at San Lorenzo, east of Juarez this morning ready to reinforce the command of Gen. Navarro. Where the Mexican federal came from and the source of his orders that led to the violation of the armistice was a mystery. Gen. Navarro sent out couriers bearing orders under bis signature for the federals to retire to the point from which they came. Insurrectos under Gen. Madero declared that if this was not done hostilities would probably be resumed at once. Peace negotiations are proceeding slowly. It is reported, however, that Madero has assurances of two more concessions from President Diaz, one in the payment of debts contracted by the provisional government and the other granting of pensions to the families of rebels killed in battle. . Griffin of Racine will be in the line up with Richmond in game tonight, also Edgerton of Muncie. SIZE OF WHALE& - Length of the' Biggest Ones and the Height Thsy Can Bpout. , - A government official who has made a .special study, of whales states .that the average length of a full grown sulphur bottom whale is just under eighty feet. This estimate disregards the exaggerated reports sometimes spread by, sailors and is based on actual measurements of many individual specimens. There seem to be credible accounts of whales reaching a length of from eighty-five to ninetyfive feet, but the authority quoted has never seen any of that size. Whales appear to grow with great rapidity, the length of yearlings being estimated at from thirty to thirty-five feet How high can whales spout? Photographs taken by the scientist referred to give a means of measuring with some accuracy the height to which the water is thrown. This appears to be much less than It has often been supposed to be. It is claimed that even the great sulphur bottom whale on the a vera go spouts to height of only fourteen feet, although occasionally tbe height may be as much as twenty feet.
