Abstract

THE arrangements for securing observations of the Solar Eclipse of April 6 are progressing most satisfactorily, thanks to the energy of the Royal Society Committee and the varied knowledge that has been brought to bear upon the various points of attack. Lord Salisbury has brought the proposed action of the Royal Society before the Council of India, and such instructions have already been telegraphed to India as will probably result in this eclipse being observed with a wealth of observers and instrumental appliances beyond all precedent.
