The present comet in She Eastern sky,
which can be distinctly seen by everyone at
early morning is certainly the most rcmar-
kable one of all the modern comets and is
styled Reproductive Comet Prot.
Lewis Svrt, director of the Warner Obser-
yatory, Rochester, \. Y, state, that the
comet crazed the sun so closely rs 70 cause
great disturbance, so much 80 that it has
divided into nolgsS than eight separate parts,
all of which can be distinctly seen by a good
telescope. There il only one other instance
on record whore comet has divided, that
one being Biella's comet of 1916, which sep
arated into two parts. Applications have
been made on Mr.. II. II. Warner by parties
who have noted these cometary ofsho,ts,
charming The 500 pii;e for each one of
them. Whether the great comet will con-
tinue to produce a brood OF smaller comets
remains . be seen.

INDIAN BURIAL-cAyEs.

DR.. Edward Palmer, who has been work
ing under the direction OF the Peabody
Museum of Archaeology of Cambridge,
Mass, has explored several caverns in
southwestern Coahuila, Mexico. that were
long ago used as burial. places by the In
dams. These caves have been mentioned
by few writers, and stories have heen
told by people who visited them or heard
OF them nearly half century ago, of the
immense number of mummified human
bodies that they contained. Since then
the caves Rave been worked for inter and
thousands OF the mummies have been
burned. Dr. Palmer has found consider
able number of the bundles undisturbed,
and has brought them to Cambria ge.
Each bundle contains the bones of one or
more human skeletons and ornaments. i'm
PIGMENTS, small baskets, articles of clothing.
and other objects. The resemblance of the
mummles with those found in the caves of
Kentucky and Tennessee is OF particular
interest. Among numerous objects of art
from the collection which DR., Palmer ex.
hiblted ct one of the meetings of the Boston
Society of Natural History were parts Of a
fringed skirt, on the edge of which feathers
had been fastened; feather head dress,
braided sandals, and pieces of finely and
evenly woven cloth in different colored
patterns. Many of the things are not like
those used by the Indians of the present
day and not thing derived from Euro
peans has been found, SO far as can be
learned. in any of the caves. DR.. Palmer
therefore thinks that the bodies were
placed where they were found long before
the Spanish conquest of the country.
