Jour., vol. xi. Not., vol. lviii., p. 298; Proc. Roy. Brit. Astr. Phil. Soc. Astr. Roy. Roy. Soc., vol. xxxiv., p. 409. Experiments directed to the same end had been made by Dr. O. Lohse at Potsdam, 1878-80. Astr. Roy. Roy. Astr. Astr. Acad. St. St. Roy. Roy. Soc., vol. xxxix., p. 108; Young, North Am. The new way struck out by Janssen and Lockyer was at once and eagerly followed.

"I don't say there mayn't be," she added. "Herr Lohse and I are excellent friends, and it won't occur to me not to accept the theatre-tickets and other amusements he is able to give me. But it is also possible that for the sake of 'your ideals, I may die a solitary old maid." Here she was overcome by the comical side of the matter, and burst out laughing. "What a ridiculous boy you are!

While semi-extinct, in 1882-84, it lost little motion; but a fresh access of retardation was observed by Professor Young in connection with its brightening in 1886. This suggests very strongly that the red spot is fed from below. A shining aureola of "faculæ," described by Bredichin at Moscow, and by Lohse at Potsdam, as encircling it in September, 1879, was held to strengthen the solar analogy.

In 1870, Mr. Ranyard whose death, December 14, 1894, was a serious loss to astronomy acting upon an earlier suggestion of Sir William Huggins, collected records of unusual appearances on the disc of Jupiter, with a view to investigate the question of their recurrence at regular intervals. He concluded that the development of the deeper tinges of colour, and of the equatorial "port-hole" markings girdling the globe in regular alternations of bright and dusky, agreed, so far as could be ascertained, with epochs of sun-spot maximum. The further inquiries of Dr. Lohse at Bothkamp in 1873 went to strengthen the coincidence, which had been anticipated

Copeland and J. G. Lohse succeeded in identifying six brilliant rays in the green and yellow with as many prominent iron-lines; a very significant addition to our knowledge of cometary constitution, and one which lent countenance to Brédikhine's assumption of various kinds of matter issuing from the nucleus with velocities inversely as their atomic weights.

R. H. Rhodes for the spiritual benefit of the fallen and unfortunate. The daughters of the clergy throughout the Dominion found a wise friend in Miss Lohse, an honoured member of the teaching profession, who left the whole of her fortune for the furtherance of their higher education.

Thus, observations irreconcilable with a swift rate of rotation were made at Bothkamp in 1871 by Vogel and Lohse; and a drawing executed by Professor Holden with the great Washington reflector, December 15, 1877, showed the same markings in the positions recorded at Milan to have been occupied by them eight hours previously.

Having bowed and said: "Lohse" to Maurice, the stranger took no further notice of him, but, drawing Madeleine's hand through his arm, in a manner half gallant, half paternal, invited her to take ices with him, at the adjoining buffet. Maurice remained standing in a corner, scrutinising those who passed him.

There was no record of its existence until it made its appearance as a star of nearly the third magnitude, in the constellation of the Swan. Its spectrum was examined, December 2, by Cornu at Paris, and a few days later by Vogel and O. Lohse at Potsdam. It proved of a closely similar character to that of T Coronæ.

The labour of collation was well advanced when he died at the age of fifty-two, April 16, 1901. Investigations of metallic arc-spectra have also been carried out with signal success by Hasselberg, Kayser and Runge, O. Lohse, and others. Another condition sine quâ non of progress in this department is the separation of true solar lines from those produced by absorption in our own atmosphere.
