THE MCPHERSON MYSTERY.

MCPHERSON, Kan, March 4-The mys-
terry surrounding the shooting of G. A.
Heggelund, president OF the Second Ma
tional bank, was partially cleared away
today. Mr.. Heggelund was shot in the
breast on Monday last, since which time
he has been in an almost unconscious con-
dition and unable to make any statement
Soon after he WAS shot the bank of which
he was president closed its doors and sus-
pended payment. Although the bank was
in solvent condition, it was rumored that
the failure was a bad one and that Mr.
Heggelund had for that reason shot him
self in an attempt to commit suicide
Mr. Heggelund regained consciousness
today for the frs time since Monday, and
dictated the following statement, which
he signed, with his wife and physician as
witnesses:

The TAN of Comet.

tt is wonderful sight to see woman Of
average height with hair so long that it
reaches TO her feet; but what would you
think of a hair switch 200, ,000, coo miles
long? Those erratic celestial adventures
called comets are SO named because the an
clients thought they resembled the flowing
hair of a woman. These switches in the
sky have been seen 100 degs. long, which is
more than the distance from the zenith to
the horizon. In the olden time the appear
ance of a comet was dreadful event. The
strange visitent struck terror to the hearts
of ignorant and superstitious people, be-
cause it was thought to be a sign of the
wrath of Jehovah, and that it presaged
war, pestilence or famine. 1t was also a
thing of dread because of fear that it might
run into the earth and knock ali things
terrestrial into smithereens.
But, thanks to scientific research. in
these latter days we know that the flaming
comet Is as harmless as a snowflake. The
constituents of a comet are practically the
same that are found in all the nebulous
matter in space. In fact it Is not far out
OF the way to say that comets are simply
masses of nebule moving in orbits around
our sun. and II is quite probable that the
other millions of suns or stars are similarly
visited by the strange specters. The fact
that stars can be seen through the nucleus
or head of comet clearly demonstrates that
il is not a solid body. 1t rs thought by as
tronomers that the mass of a comet is so
light that its weight IS far less than that
Of the earth's atmosphere. 1t Is probable
that the extreme tenuity of comets &C
counts for the eccentrictity of their orbits.
