play;
She seems to be in earnest, for she's at it most
all day,
She fortunes the piano, and calls forth most
piercing walls;
And when ask the reason, says she's practis-
ing the scales.

Now when this little maiden at the first began
to play,
Twas teedle-teedle- teedle that employed her
all the day.
Ireally felt quite happy when the Hateful day
had come,
And she was then promoted to this awful tum-

With an earnestness unworthy I hear this

his wife to Washington with him-his
wife and baby-and is proud of them
and they are proud of him. l have in
mind one young congressman who walks
to the Capitol every session day with his
wife by his side and his baby in his arms.
The trio go in on the floor, and baby is
perched upon the statesman's desk till
the hour comes for clearing the floor.
Then wife and baby go up into the gal
lery and sit all the afternoon, or till the
session is over, watching hubby and papa
legislate. 1t is only while the new con
gresham is very new that he does this.
He soon gets over it, and then wife and

Will Sunol Lower Her Records

Sunol is safely in Marvin's charge
again, and MIR. Bonner is evidently
very hopeful that she will lower her
record this year. In an interview he
says: 81 believe | have been able
to benefit Sunol more han any other
horse | ever owned, and it remains to
be seen whether she will fulfil Senator
Stanford's expectations. You know he
predicted she would go in 2 :O4, a pace
that | predicted no trotter would eyer
reach. Her achievements up to this
time were under unfavorable conditions,
especially regarding the important
thing known as balance. How fast do
you think you could run if you were
thrown back on your heels, with your
toes quite off the groundp Well, that
about illustrates the way Sunol stood
behind when she made her various rec
ords. No man can get up speed unless
he is firmly on his feet, and it is just
the same way with a horse"

The Comet Now Visible.

hoCheSter UNION ana Advertiser.
DIR. Lewis Swift, of the Warner OBJ
%seryatory, SAID this morning that the
comet now visible near the great square
of Pegasus is the largest that has been
visible IN the northern hemisphere since
the great comet of 1882 and the first
n since then that could be success
fully photographed. The rapid changes
that have taken place in the tails make
IL the most remarkable comet that ever
appeared.
According to the report of Professor
Barnard of his observations between
April 4 and 9 these changes were TAX
ing place continually. On April 4 the
tail was twenty degrees long, and
straight and slender, II telescope view
showing it to consist of two branches,
with scarcely any ~nebulosity between.
On the morning of the 9Th n photograph
was taken with n camera, with siN-inch
lens strapped on TO the telescope, with
an exposure of one hour. There were
then three main branches, a new one
having appeared between the two
original enes. Each of these branches
was in turn separated until at least n
dozen could be counted. Two degrees
from the head along the northern side
of the middle tail n sudden bend south
ward occurs, a very unusual thing. On
the morning of the 9th IN exposure of
half an hour was given. The short
northern branch had disappeared and
the two others had blended together.
On the 9TH the most successful OBJ
%servation was made, an exposure of an
hour and five minutes having been
given. The southern tail, the bright
est on the 9th, had disappeared, the
middle tail being very bright and
broad. In the densest portion of the
tail a couple of dark holes appeared
similar to what are called scoal sacks
in the milky way. This is considered
Il very remarkable occurrence.
s'As far as now known" said DR..
Swift, sfthis comet appears to be hyper
.bolic. 1t never was here before and
never can be again. Assuming that it
came from the nearest sun, it must have
been on the road about 5000, 900 years
in order to have arrived at its present
position at this time"
