the money. This placed the Jews in
fix. The sum demanded they de-
clared among them selves to be in
famous. but they knew too well from
the experience Of the past that if they
left their dwellings unguarded they
would find their valuables gone when
they returned home from prayer at
midnight. They we're still on the
horns of the dilemma when an astute
young Israelite, whom the wilma

ness that exists at present among Rus
sian officials in regard to the destruc-
tion Of towns by arson, this clever
young Jew dispatched an anonymous
letter TO the governor, drawn up in
the usual revolutionary style, de-
nouncing him for his numerous acts of
tyranny and wickedness and declaring
the intention of the Nihilists to
destroy wilma by fire on the night of
the 27th-28th of September, The
effect of the ruse was twofold and
succeeded admirably. All the Gen
tiles of wilma remained at home to
look after their houses and property,
while the Jews went demurely to their
places of worship confident in the
belief that the swarms of soldiers and
policemen parading the streets would
protect their goods from the robber

The Way the Jews Fooled the
Russians.

Russians are never happier than
when they are telling a good story
about the Jews, and at present they
have an excellent one to illustrate
their dealings with the guileless Mus
covite 1t seems, says the London
Globe, that the Jews at wilma, where
they constitute proportion of the
population, celebrate the eve of the
Fast of Atonement by a general gath
ering at their synagogues, no person,
unless completely helpless, being sup
posed to remain away from prayer. 1t
has always been problem how to pro-
tect the property Of the Jewish com
munity on this occasion, when tho
owners are all away from home, aud
more than once the Poles and the
yllesiaps have taken advantage Of
the absenoa 70 completely ransack
their dwellings, Latterly, how
ever, the Jews have entered
into an arrangement with the Russian
ccmmandant of the garrison, paying
him certain sum for allowing sol
diers to be placed in front of the
doors. At no period has this charge
been light, but on the present occas-
ion the general, thinking that he had
the Israelites completely in his power,
demanded for the privilege an in
crease amounting to more than double

Near Approach al Comets.

Among the cases of close approach
Of comets to our globe, says Nature,
there are two in which we are able to
fix the actual degree of approximation
with certainty, the orbits at the times
having been determined with great
precision. The first is that Of the
comet Of l770, treated of by Laplace
in the Mecanique Celeste. According
to Clausen' elaborate investigation, in
which the effect of the earths attrac
tion is included, this comet at 5:06 D.
M. Greenwich time, on July l, was
distant only 0.0l509 of the earth $
mean distance from the sun, or $780,
900 miles, and it is the closest ap-
prOach Of one Of these bodies of which
we have any certain knowledge. On
this evening its apparent diameter, as
measured by Messier, was not less
than two and half degrees, or near
ly five times the apparent diameter of
the moon; at this time the comet was
traversing the constellation Draco.
The second case is that of Biela's S
comet at its appearance in 1905. At
8 pm. on December 9. just before it
descended below the horizon of
Europe, and almost at the time
of the last observation by Thu.
lis, at Marseilles, the comet
was distant 0 0366, or about $3.50 600
miles. There can be little doubt that
the comets of 56S, 1866, l472, and
others passed near the earth, but, the
elements of their orbits are not de-
terminable within anything like close
limits. The first comet of l743. for
which Clausep assigned an ellipti-
cal object, was also near us. but the
orbit in this instace is doubtful, and
the actual distance in perigee can not
be deduced with precision. There
have been many instances where com
cts at one or other node have passed
much nearer to the earth orbit even
than in the case of the comet of l770.
as occurred with Biela's comet in
1899, but the nod..l passages have
taken place when the earth has been
far removed from these points of her
path.

menacing position of the Beaconsfeld
government, it will be diplomatic
death to Russia difficult to support.
To prevent this, by sustaining the sui
tan in his present choice of ministers,
a counter demonstration in a military
direction by Russia might be consid-

believes no steps have thus far been
