Observations OF the Comet.

HANOVER, n. H., June 27.-Obser.
vatiOns taken at Dartmouth observatory
last night show that the comet was
moving 10 point approximating S de-
grees from the pole star, its motion
being about 8 degrees a day. At its
lower elimination 1t was approximating
10 degrees from the horizon. AS seen
through nine-inch glass this comet
was very clearly defined, being circular
on one side and fading away impercep
t bly, on the other. Behind the nucleus
there was dark spot. The comet it.
self passed over and nearly concealed
an eighth magnitude star, making q
beautiful sight. The form Of the comet
could be very clearly seen with two
or three-inch objective. The comet ls
less than a minute of an arc in width
aud about a minute and a half 10
length.
WARRINGTON, JUNE 25.-At the
Nav ] observatory last night the posi-
ton of the recently discovered comet at
its lower elimination was found with
the transit circle to be FIVE hours forty.
eight minutes thirty EIGHT and four.
tenths seconds right ascension, and
ifty-seyen degrees forty minutes fifty.
two seconds north declinahen. Time,
1927 z. NJ.
An approximate orbit Of the comet
has been computed by Mr.. Upton, OF
the signal service from the observations
made at the Naval Observatory on The
23d, 25ih and 26in instant. The Gle =.
ments show marked agreement with
those flhe great comet Of 1867, max

British authorities at Quetta is to the
effect that four British soldiers who
were captured at Maiwand have been
sold into slavery by their captors. What
the sufferings of these slaves are can
not be even imagined, because the At
ghans are brutal to degree with re-
spect to aliens whom they have taken
in battle. If they save a life. it is only
from whim, that they may put it to
prolonged torture, and these four men
are probably now undergoing miseries
to which death itself would be COM
parative relief When DR.. Bellew en-
tered Afghanistan twenty years ago, in
connection with an Embassy to the
Ameer, he met a man who was pointed
out to him as q British captive, who
had been taken in the war of 1S39-42.
The man resembled a beast more than
a Christian human being. He had al
most forgotten his own language, and
the little he had left of it he dared not
speak, so terrified was he of his Afghan
masters. Bellew says the case was
singularly pathetic, and in it alone the
world may gain some idea of the fate
of the four white slaves who are now
reported to be alive in the capital Of
We,tern Afghanistan.

DR.. Glenn was born in Virginia in
1924, and graduated at the Medical Uni
versity of Missouri in 1864. Shortly
afterward he married and commenced
life with a capital of $110 With that
he purchased an OK team and crossed
the plains to California. He engaged in
mining and was successful. In 1850he
returned to Missouri with $1,000, and
bought and drove horses to California
and Mexico. He made his first pur-
chase of land in 1867, buying Z, 900 acres
at 81 go per acre, and short time after
wards purchased 1000 acres more at
about the same price. Since then he
has been absorbing the land on either
sides at varying prices. Three years
ago he was Candidate for Governor of
California, consorting ia the meantime
with Dennis Kearney.

in his veins, the shock had brought the
hidden enemy to light Tossing in de-
lirium for many weeks, Dora learned
how wholly the mans heart had
fastened itself upon the one hope
which so cruelty had failed him. For
a time it seemed as though it had
sapped the foundation of his life; but
it proved not so.
There came a day when, opening his
eyes, he recognized the nurse whose
gentle touch had soothed all his fever
fancy hours. Slowly he regained his
strength; but it seemed as though re-
turning health brought with it a new
vision.
Cara's acknowledged lover was with
them now. They who had welcomed
him for her sake soon did so for his
own. Seeing them together, none
could wonder that each had chosen the
other, but how the sight must pain the
other man
With all her ingenuity Dora strove
to keep it from him, until he said to
her oDe day:
"My wound has been cauterized; it
hurts no longer"
He was brave and hid it, she told
herself Did she not know that such
wounds never healed?
Thus the weeks rolled on until it
came the time for Cara's wedding. She
had returned to her guardians home,
which she was now to leave forever.
1t was the evening before her mar
riage, when Dora, sitting alone, heard
the step she had learned to know so
well.
As he had done once before, entering
the room where she sat, he came
straight toward her, taking both her
hands in his.
"Dora," he said, "do YOU remember
that you once told ne that, pleading
my cause, could not be denied? Will
you make good your words? Must !
be punished because for long years ]
have been blind? l love you, dear
want you for my own-my wife VIII
YOU forgive the infatuation which mis-.
led me from the real cry of my heart
ard now answer it? 1t is very empty
viii you fill it?"
She looked up into his face. Was il
pity that she read there-pity which
prompted the words for which hel
hungry heart had thirsted all these
years? No, no 1t was the light o.
love, and it burned for her. She knew
it even as she knew that it should light
her footsteps down into the valley anC
shadow of eternity; and, so knowing
she gave him the prOnlise that he
asked.

Prince Napoleon and NJ. de MOrny.

The Empress Eugene, who detested
Prince Napoleon, once wanted the En-
peror to render it impossible for the
Prince, whom she treated as a carpet
knight, to go wearing the epaulets and
drawing the pay of General of Divis-
ion. He had been, she argued, nick
named " Craintplomb by the Due
d'Aumale. NJ. de Morny, who was
present, was appealed to by the irate
and exalted lady, who asked him
whether he thought steam would be
powerful enough to drag the Prince on
the ground where the DUO dAumale
was ready to await him with a pistol in
his hand and seconds behind him.
"Alas, nc Y said de Morny. 'If ever
q ball is found in the stomach Of his
Imperial Highness it will be through
having swallowed it by mistake" An
other of de Morny's mots was uttered
in response to a question from little
Prince Louis "What. is, Due" said the
child, "the difference between an acct
dent and a misfortune?" eff, returned
NJ. de Morny, "your cousin, Prince Ma
poleon, fell into the Seine, it would be
an accident; if a brave waterman
dashed in after him and pulled him
out, it would be misfortune
