Eugene, Jan. 29, For the first time in many years a solar eclipse visible in the north ' west will occur on February 3, 1916. The following informal ion regarding it h as been prepared by Edward H.

This belt called the "path of total eclipse," be gins in the Pacific ocean some 45 de grees of longitude west of the Isth mus of Panama, traverses the Pacific to the west coast of Colombia, crosses Place Portland Eugene Ashland The Dalles ..
