Total eclipse will be viewed only along the narrow track between California and Montana, lasting nowhere longer than a second and a half. Astronomers call this type a cen tral eclipse. Along the central track which runs on through Canada and across Hudson bay the moon will pass centrally before the sun, but it will nt quite cover it. Tho moon will be partly eclips ed April 12, the oclipso beginning a little before midnight, eastern time, and lasting about an hour. Two other eclipses in liiSO will not bo seen in our hemisphere.
