DURING the extraordinary display o
Northern lights" few nights since,
those superstitious people who have
been led to believe that the new comet
now telescopically visible in the north
eastern heavens would destroy the
earth. we're ready to see their worst
fears realized. They thought that the
collision had actually occurred In the
far north, and that the confagration
which was to sweep over the world. was
really in progress. 1t did look like 1t,
but they feel easier to-day in knowing
that it was a false alarm.
