By intelligence receive d from the
War ner Observatory, Rochester,
N. Y, it appears that still another
comet has just been discovered by
DR.. Gould, Director of the Cordova
Observatory, Argentine Republic,
South America. This comet seems
to be the great comet of 1907, and
is located in the Constellation OF
the Dove, Right Ascension 6 hours
and Declination South 30 degrees.
1t is not visible from this latitude
and not known yet that it will be,
although 1t Ia likely to be, as the
comet of 1907 was distinctly seen.
No apprehension need be had over
the unusual appearance of comets
during the present year as they do
not possess the power to work in
jury upon the earth or any other
planet.

A lady on Fremont street was so
excited that she allowed her jewell
ry and clothing to be consumed,
while she saved two young kittens,
and her most sincere regrets were
on account of the loss of the old cat.
The County Recorder had wag-
OF in front of his Office during the
time of the fire. and was prepared
Ito remove the records at mo-
ments notice.
Much credit Is due to the city
and county officers for their clear
headed attention to their duties.
Chas. D. Reppy of the Epitdph,
received a scalp wound by falling
timber on Fourth street. DIR. Hill
err sewed up the wound.
Considering the circumstances.
the injury to life and limb was
very trifiing; at present, rs fer as
can be known, the severest injuries
we're sustained by Mr.. Parsons.
Other reports are as follows: w.
Nash was standing in Mexican d
Knights when some giant powder
exploded near him and scorched
him slightly on the face and neck.
Ed. Shipman, of Kelly's wine
house, while standing opposite the
Palace saloon, on Allen street, got
scorched Oh the face by burst of
flame from the saloon. Officer
Magee received a cut on the knee
about two inches long while pull

Mr.. M. B. Clepp, cashier of SAT-
ford, Hudson & Co.'s bank, was in
the building as long as it was in
habitsble, and had narrow escape
from the falling walls. The vault
and safe are believed to be in good
condition and the contents saved.
The fire company, although not
having their apparatus, did good
service, aud worked like Trojans.
Much credit is due them.
1t was rumored that an effort
would be msde to burn the re-

if there was any such intention
it was frustrated by the vigilance
of our officers.
