Last night or evening to be more

blowing in preventing him attending
the feast of reason and flow of soul

were indulging in. To make a long
story short only conjecture can say
what was the object of the meeting,,
although it is quite possible the
coming prohibition referendum may
have had some thing to with it. But
if so they are second in the field be
cause a Worker representative was

Tom Gaffney says that he had the
pleasure of travelling on the Sarah
when the first bunch of freight for
the government railroad in six
barges went up the river. The
freight consisted of 225,0 tons of
steel rails. The boat took two days
to reach Marshal, so the pleasure
may be regarded as a bit dubious.
This was the worst year, he says,
for mosquitoes ever known on the
Yukon. One man lost seven young
foxes, the mosquitoes literally hav
ing eaten their eyes away. Many
men lost dogs also in this manner.
« Marshal they were so numerous
at sometimes when the bunch
would start dancing round a man
they would lift him off his feet. This
is perhaps an exaggeration.

GABY DESLYS AT 1)UF \M
Tonight at the Dream the illnstri
ous international star and the sen
sation of two continents Gaby Dtslvs
makes her first apearance in “Her
Triumph". This is an original story
of the theatre, produced in Paris by
the Famous Players Co. The Dance
Deslys which made miss Deslys
famous, is produced as are many
novelties of the theatre. Famed
for her beauty and accepted as the
world's greatest dancer and gowned
by Worth. Nome is promised a ?2.00
show for ihe popular admission of
25 cents.
The Autumnal Equinox, which oc
curs tonight, Sept. 22, 10:14 p. m.r
seems to sustain its reputation as a
producer of storms. It is generally
supposed that the passage of the
sun from north of the equator to
wards the south, or vice versa,
presages much unsettled weather.
It is quite reasonable that the shift
ing of the zone of calms and the
swinging of the periodic winds tends
to disturl) the equilibrium of the
atmosphere. And yet some have
tried to prove by records that
storms ar> no more frequent around
the equinoxes than at any other
time of the year.
At the equinoxes the plane of the
earth's ax ^ is parpendicular to the
plane of the earth's orbit, and the
sun is vertically overhead at the
equator. The apparent movement
of the sun from the north to south
and vice versa during the year is
due to the fact that the axis of the
rotation of the earth is inclined to
the plane of the orbit 23 deg. 30
min., and that the axis, or the poles
always points nearly to the same di
rection in space, which makes the
poles lean alternately away from \
and towards the sun.
The north pole is receiving its
last rays of sunlight before the long
night of six months' duriation,
while the south pole is just emerg
ing into continuous daylight. Day
and night are equal all over the
globe, except in so far as it is modi
fied by the refraction of light, which
makes the day a little longer than
the night. At Nome the sun rises
today at 5:41 a. m. and sets at
6:02 p. m. The sun’s altitude at
noon is 25 deg. 40 min. above the
horizon and the declination 10 min.
north of Ihe equator.
The equinoxes as well as the sol
stices mark natural phenomena, and
efforts have been made to have the
year beg>n at one of these seasonal
changes. Perhaps the most notable
is that made in France during the
revolution. In its efforts to over
throw all established customs, the
Convention in 1792 decreed that
the year should begin at midnight
of the day of the true Autumnal
Equinox. The months, to which
were given names corresponding
with the seasons, such as Vendemi
aire (Vintage), from Sept. 23 to
Oct. 22 ,1'luviose (Rainy) from Jan.
12 to Febr. 20. etc., were divided
into three decades of ten days
each and the five extra days of the
year were added ot the end of Fruc
tidor or September. The French
Revolutionary Era, as it is called,
was in use from 1793 to the end of
1805, when the Gregorian Calender
was restored.—John A. Wilson.
