THE GHOST OF A COMET.
If it Strikes the Earth it May Be Too Thin
To Be Seen.

New York, November 21.-The mys-
terry concerning the identity of the wierd
comet visitor in the eastern skies deep
ems. No astronomer knows what it is,
where it is going or what it will do when
it arrives there. The theory adopted
when the comet made it's first appearance
on Nov. that it was Biela's discovery of
nearly half a centure ago, is weakening.
Biela's comet has a record for freaks and
pranks that surpasses anything every be-
fore known by comet fanciers. But this
one is even more capricious. The spec
troscopic experiments being made at
Princeton indicate that the comet is los
ing its brightness as it approaches the
earth.
The evidence that the comet is dimin-
ishing in brightness is not in the least in
consistent with the theory that it is APP
preaching the earth. At it's first posi-
tion it's entire volume seemed condensed
into small spot, and so it had the APP
pearance of a solid ball of fire surround
ed by layer of dense vapor. But as it
approached our planet the spot grew
larger, covering greater area of sky,
and so lost its density. When it comes
nearer its density may be so slight that
it will become actually invisible.
These discoveries of the astronomers
as to the condition of the great meteoric
visitor are reassuring. There is absolate-
ly no danger whatever in a collision,
should a collision occur. AS there is
little but gas in the comet, from center
to circumference, its impact with the
earth would be like striking the fore
head with soap bubble.

THE BLACKLIST WAS LONG.
Homestead Strikers Made a Grand Rush
for Their Old Places.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, November 21.-The
strike being officially declared off, a
grand rush was made this morning by
the strikers to get back to work. AS
early as 6 o'clock, the rush began, and it
kept the police busy handling the crowd.
By O clock the rush was over, but they
continued going in twos and thlees, and
this will doubtless be kept up for some
days. A large number were turned
away, some with good prospects Of So
curing their old positions in the near fu-
ture, but many, after being told that
they would be given no work under any
circumstances. 1t is now plainly evi-
dent that the blacklist is quito long, and
those whose names appear on this list
will be forced to seek work elsewhere.
The firm is inclined to favor the old men
as much as possible, and there have al
ready been a large number of colored
men discharged to Eassse room for old
employees.

On the Saturday previous to young Nor

to strike him over the head with an OK

enough to make the boy fall to the

The boy managed to rise and go to the
barn, from which he was seen to go to
the house. Since that time his where
abouts remain a mystery. Young Nor

was greeted with cheers. He called
upon his hearers to initiate the Irish and

Emergency committees, he added, had

It has been reported that President
Mcleod has been inspecting the Boston
and Maine and Maine Central roads.
Last week he met George NJ. Pullman in
Boston and made arrangements for the
continuance of the Pullman car service
on the Boston and Maine road. Presi-
dent Webb of the Wagner Palace Car
Company was down East a great deal
last summer before the alliance between
the Boston and Maine and Reading roads,
and it was understood at that time that
the Wagner car would supplant the Pull
mans in this section. The routes east of
Boston are the most profitable runs OF
the Pullman Company, and several at
tempts have been made to introduce
other cars, but Pullman seems to have
strong grip on the business.
A dispatch from Philadelphia says:
President Mcleod says of his visit to
Boston and to Maine: found the Bos-
ton and Maine road in the pink of con-
dition. I never knew before what a
valuable franchise they possessed, and
am satisfied they will, under the new
deal, experience phenomenal growth
The movement for quicker train SER
vice between Portland and Boston is ex-
citing considerable interest. The petit
ton of Boston business men now bears
the names of the leading representatives
of the grain, groceries, provisions and
dry goods trades. The merchants of
Portland have signed monster petition,
and Saco, Biddeford and Kennebunk have
joined in the demand. They urge that
trains run from Boston to New London
in about 21 hours, while to Portland, the
same distance, over hours is required.
The petitions will go to the Boston and
Maine directors tomorrow.
Itsis rumored that as an outcome of
President McLeod's visit the, services of
| number of employees on the Boston
and Maine, northern DIVISION will be
dispensed with at the meeting of the
directors to be held tomorrow.
1t is also rumored that at the same
meeting the proposition will be dis
cussed to absorb the Portland and
Rochester in the Worcester and Nashua
division of the Boston and Maine If
decided upon the result will be that the
services Of the leading officers such as
general manager, freight agent, passen-
ger agent, etc, will be dispensed
with. TheH corporation would of
course be continued with a president and
