Professor Brooks. of the Red House
observatory, at Phelps, n. V. while search
ing for comets near the sun last Thursday
evening, discovered wonderful shower OF
telescope meteors, some Of which were
moving northward and others southwark.
He believes that this display has some con-
nection with the remarkable red light seen
near the sun at sunrise and sunset for
several days, and that the earth is passing
through mass of meteoric dust or is en-
veloped in the tai of gigantic comet.

er is physician and is continually around
the hospital where they let him perform
neat little operations. The Crown Princess
gave birth to a future Crown Prince few
weeks ago, and the whole nation took hol-
iday over it, and the city was illuminated in
the evening.
The military law is the same as in Ger
many. From the Crown Prince down, ev-
cry male must serve. There is no escape.
But there are two grades. Those who can
pass a strict educational examination serve
only one year and wear an officers dress and
sword. After this year they drop out of &C.
tive service. During it they must drill a
certain number Of hours per day. They can
also attend school. and in the University
here are hundreds of them with their swords
always clanking after them and tripping up
themselves or somebody else. The other
class who cannot pass this examination serve
4 years, from II to q. They are clothed
and fed and receive about % cents week
for pay. IF eousse the streets are full Of
soldiers and the variety of uniforms leads
one to decide that there cannot possibly be
another one made which is still different.
By the way, the regular uniform is identical
with that of our regular army.
