If the change of the centuries took place at either of the equinoxes— Maren 27 or Sept. 22—then, alnca on those days the earth's axta ta at right anglea to tho plqne of the orbit, and there la equal day and night ail over the world, the matter would be very easily •tortded. The down line would coincide with the date-line, and from pole to pole the first nun of the new century woirkl rise at the same momen- But unfortunately this Is not so. and the consequence Is that the line of daw i, a* It sweep# round the earth, that touches the date-line to the south of th* equator, and then gradually creeps up this line till it leaves It far to the north. Bo the first • tin of the twentieth century will rise on the places along or near the dpte-Une Iti the order of their position from the south upward. Now there la no land along Mils lino from the antarctic circle to Antipodes Island, hence Hits tiny spot of earth will flrst eee the twentieth century dawn. A few minute* later Bounty Island trill see It. Then It will sweep along the north***!. • oast of North itlgtid. New Zca lands then over Vacua Levu In the FIJI lalunda. Next It will shine on the scattered coral islets of th# Ellice group, and after travel ing about degrees more to the north Jhe ltg 04-tide will touch the crossing of the dawn-line and date-Mnn at ( o'clock. Two hour# and five minutes will have to posa befora It reaches the banks of th" Yana. In six hour* and twenty-flv* min utes tt will gild th* temples and palaces o' Calcutta, In nine hour* and fifty min ute* It will be flowing over Idon'a Head and down the rugged atdm of Table Moun tain. In twelve hours and twenty-Avr, minute* |t will have crossed Montmartre and touched the base of Eiffel Tower Id Paris Five minute* later It will have passed the cross of Mt. Paul's amt be flowing up Fleet street. In seventeen hours and twenty minutes from the tlnv* It crossed tha dawn-line It will be tlow- I lag round -the feet of ha Statue of Lt herty and in three hours more It will have reached the Golden Gate. Thence It win cross a stretch of ocean upbroken by rock or islet hack to the dawiDllne. and so will be accomplish*,] toe evening and morning of the flan day of the twantleth century. —The big Stanford stock farm at P#!
