ECLIPSE OF THE SUN
OBSERVERS DISAPPOINTED. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Gisborne, Jan. 4. The eclipse of the sun was witnessed under weird conditions this morning. There was an overcast sky and misty conditions, with occasional glimpses of the sun, giving the landscape an eerie appearance. At times it was sufficiently dark to require artificial light. Wellington, Jan. 4. Clouds greeted the partial eclipse of the sun this morning, but breaks now and again permitted a view of how it was progressing. At times they were an advantage, enabling observation by the naked eye. The Government Meteorologist (Dr. Adams) sent a message from Russell that it was raining and he did not see the eclipse.
