i Mr Clement Wragge forwards the fol-lowing:—'-Another upheaval in the sun, about 12,000 miles in diameter, is approaching the centre or solar disc. To those abnormal conditions is certainly attributable the Chinese earthquake, and, also earth tremors in New Zealand, and ithe South African floods. Winds on an .awful scale, with gigantic tongues of 'hydrogen, flame around these solar storms in exactly the same manner as do the winds around the puny cyclones of earth, northern and southern hemispheres respectively; and it must ever be remembered that the earth and tho sun are inseparably linked together by the sill-pervading wireless etheric waves. Such a-ffeet not only our atmosphere, but also industrial affairs and the vagaries of 'human nature at thia critical time."
