The eclipse-photographs of 1893 disclosed to Hartley's examination the presence there of gallium; and those taken by Evershed in 1898 were found by Jewell to be crowded with ultra-violet lines of the equally rare metal scandium. The general rule had been laid down by Sir Norman Lockyer that the metallic radiations from the chromosphere are those "enhanced" in the electric spark.

'If you get it from the Ferret, my dear Evershed, said the ex-Tory minister, Lord Rupert, 'you may put it down as a safe lie. As for me, I believe she has a much shrewder eye to the main chance. 'What do you mean? said the other, raising astonished eyebrows. 'Well, it doesn't pay, you know, to write yourself down a fiend not quite. 'What you think it will affect her audiences?

Evershed, Professor Campbell, and others; Professor Turner set on foot a novel mode of research by picturing the corona in the polarised ingredient of its light; Mrs. Maunder practically solved the problem of photographing the faint coronal extensions, one ray on her plates running out to nearly six diameters from the moon's limb.

The first outcome of the movement was the Niagara River Hydraulic Power and Sewer Company, incorporated in 1886, and succeeded by the Niagara Falls Power Company.
