Abstract

As will be seen from another column, the Eclipse Expedition is now fully organised, and all the parties will be on their way before our next number appears. The Organising Committee, who have done about three months' work in a fortnight, deserve all praise for their untiring efforts, and we may hope that they will be adequately rewarded by the results obtained. We may mention that on the representation of the Organising Committee, the Government have communicated with the French and German Governments with a view of securing the services of M. Janssen, who, if he can be got out of Paris, will accompany Mr. Lockyer to Sicily.
