STUDY OF
ASTRONOMERS WERE BUSY OBSERVING -
SERVING HALLEY'S COMET.
MUCH VALUABLE DATA OBTAINED
Will Throw Light on Composition of
Comets' Tails Earth In Tall of
Comet Little Moro Than
Five Hours.
The comet cnme , the comet went ,
and this little old earth is no worse
and no better , and thus far , very little
wiser.
There was no collision , as the su
perstitious and the Ignorant feared ,
and now that the comet Is headed
awny from us , there will be no lecur-
rcnce of the manifestations of terror
that were recorded from all parts of
the country and of the world. The
earth did pass through the tail of the
comet , but nobody suffocated from the
deadly cyanogen gas. To the naked
eye the tall of the comet was "the
veriest approach to nothing set In the
midst of naught. " In fact the phe
nomena of the daylight hours of Wed
nesday were far more interesting. Dur
ing the afternoon sun spots were ob
served in varying numbers about the
same hour from five western observa
tories , but the astronomers who re
corded them were almost unanimous
In the belief that these disturbances
of the solar atmosphere had nothing
to do with the approach of the come' '
and were merely coincidental. I
Thirty sun spots were seen from St.
Louis , of which the largest was esti
mated .to be 150,000 miles acioss ; t\vo i I
from San Jose , Gal. , with thirteen
surrounding pores , or smaller spots ;
three "considerably accentuated" spots
from Chicago , three connected spots j
from Vallejo , Cal. , and two from Port
land , Ore. None of the eastern ob
servatories had anything of note to
report either during the day or night.
At Chicago and at Williams Bay , Wis. ,
where is the great Ycrkcs telescope ,
the conditions for observations seemed
the best and the astronomers there
believe that the negative as well as
the positive results of their examina
tion would bo of lasting value.
While- the performance took a little
more than five hours , astronomers dif
fered as to the exact time the earth
began to pass through the comet's tall ,
but the general oplnlos averages be
tween 10 and 11 o'clock Wednesday
night. The combined speed of the
earth and the tall of the comet was
estimated at slightly more than forty-
six miles a second and the breadth of
the tall at about a million miles.
Friday the comet will become visible
again , headed away from us with the
tail sticking straight up out of the
western sky a little above where the
sun sinks.
At the end of a month , good-bye
for another seventy-five years.
Yerkes Observatory , Williams Bay ,
iVls. , May 19. (1 ( a. m. ) As the world
passed through the tall of Halley's
comet astronomers at the Yerkes ob
servatory here secured photographs
and accurate records of meteoric phe
nomena and varying heavenly Illum
ination under atmospheric conditions
nearly perfect for \vork with camera
and telescope. The pictures and data
are considered of unusual value and
may develop scientific information and
theories of unexpected importance.
Prof. Edward B. Barnard , one of the
world's greatest authorities on comets ,
was much pleased with the result of
his observations , which have extended
almost without interruption for a per
iod of forty-eight hours.
A most painstaking search warf
made through the tail of the comet
for spots where illumination might
be lacking. This lack of Illumination ,
it was Indicated , may aid greatly in
determining the substance of the glow
that follows the comet's head.
A Hundred Men Are Killed.
Havana. Two almost simultaneous
explosions of dynamite supposed to
consist of 3,000 pounds completely de
molished the rural guard barracks In
the city of Pina del Rio Wednesday af
ternoon. Fully one hundred persons
were killed and nearly as many ser
iously wonudcd.
Most of the dead were rural guard ,
but the entire families of several of
the olllccrs of the guards , It Is report
ed , were killed also as were several
emplrves of the public works depart
ment and icsidcnts of the city on
which f 11 a deluge of masonry and de
bris from the blown-up building.
Convicted of Murder.
Bollevllle , Kits. Charles Nordmark
was convicted of murder In the second
degree her9 Wednesday. The crime
was the murder of Alexander Llndhal
and his small son and daughter. The
Jury was out twenty hours.
New Bishops Selected.
Ashville , N. C. Rev W. R. Lambnth
of Tennessee , and Rev. W. D. Mouz-
on and Rev. R. G. Watcrhouao of Vlr
glnia were elected bishops on the
fourth ballot at the general conference
of the Methodist Episcopal church
South , according to the announcement
made shortly after the opening of the
conference. On the sixth ballot Rev.

the United States bear willing testi
mony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
It cures female ills , and creates radi

these you love , give it a trial.

Speaking before the National Assocl

Tuberculosis recently , Dr. Henry Far-
num Stoll of Hartford , Conn. , said :
"Every city should have one or more
such Institutions for all delicate , so-
called scrofulous or anaemic children ,
and those with tuberculosis of the'
bones , who are now In ordinary
schools. Doctor Stoll declared that
twenty to forty per cent of , school
children In large cities are Infected
with tuberculosis. By the use ot tn-
culln , It was ascertained that 79 per
cent , of the children from tuberculous
homes were Infected as against only 20
per cent , of these from supposedly
healthy homes. It was alee found that
50 per cent , of the frail children from
healthy homes had the germs of the
disease , but that only 13 per cent , ol
the robust children from similar bomca
were thus affected.
