the Boston and Maine railroad, which has
been in preparation for some time, was APP
proved by the board OF directors at the

Of that corporation. In many respects it is

OF the operation OF that road for the year
ending September 80, 1892.
In general, the figures snow an increase of
nearly 81 900, 600 in gross earning, and a
satisfactory gain in net earnings for the
year. In fact 1t may DO stated that earnings
have increased for n series Of years, dating
back rs far rs 1883. Large OUTLAWS have
been made for double tracking on certain
sections Of the road, putting in sidngs,
building bridges and depots, ballastlng the
rosdbods and adding largely TO the equip

SAN Francisco, Ca, Nov. 90. PROT
Barnard OF Lick observatory, who has made
special study OF comets, declares that,
from bis observation, the comet in Andro-
media is really Bella comet. lie says its
orbit is precisely the same as that of BIela's
comet, and 1t is natural to assume it is the
same.
Prof. Barnard saw tine comet last on
Move amber 81 when il was four times as
large on the Sth, but was fainter This
means" he says, THAT tho Holmes comet
is now larger than half the full moon, be-
cause it is fainter, both as naked eye OBJ
ject and through TELESCOPES.
The opinion seems generally accepted that
the comet las been increasing in distance
from the earth. | say that this reasoning
is aliacious, The fact that the comet is
increasing SO markedly in its apparent size
is conclusive proof to me that it is getting
nearer TO US aud the fact that it is getting
fainter Is quite natural. When we are in
the midst OF fog cloud it does not seem
half 50 dense as when that cloud has passed
the mountain and is seen in the near dig
lance. -
