IN NORTHERN SKIES.
The New Comet Frightening, and
H. Now Plainly Visible.

The New Comet Frightening, and
f. Now Plainly Visible.
The comet in the northern sky is
nightly growing brighter, and may now
readily be seen with the naked eye, and
is brilliantly discernible with the Ordi-
nary telescope. 1t is generally agreed
among astronomers that it is approach
ing the earth and moving from the sun,
so that within week it will have at
tanned TO such brllliancy as to be not
only readily visible, but actually con-
Spicuous IN the heavens. Prof. Payne,
says of it:
''Since discovery the comet has been
increasing rapidly in brightness, until
now it is an interesting object for naked
eye observation. Monday evening the
sky was covered with clouds, and no
observation could be had of it at Good
sell observatory. Tuesday evening it
was easily found in the twilight in the
northwestern sky, at about 8 O'Clock,
by the aid of the field glass, and very
easily seen at that time with the naked
eye. The head of the comet was in line
with two small stars known as Kappa
and Iota, Of UrSa Major, and about three
degrees south and east Of the former
star. The tail extended upward from
the horizon almost perpendicularly, and
could be traced by the naked eye about
Is degrees. The narrUWeSt part Of the
tail was behind the head, and 1t grad
ually widened as it extended further
away, but the outlines were not well
defined. The head was quite circular,
the nucleus bright and nearly central,
with respect to the surrounding neDu-
lOsity.
90. ''Dr H. c. Wilson obtained Two
photographs at 10 O'Clock, one with a
small camera and the other by the aid
of an eight and quarter-inch telescope.
They were both excellent. One shows
much interesting detail in the structure
OF the tail that was not seen so well i'll
the telescope. On the Photographic
plate il looks more like bundle OF sep
arate streamers than single uniform
straight train. just behind the head,
on each side of the main train, mar
row long Streamer is seen. the two max
ing different small angles with the
main axis of the tail. No streamerS
are noticed in the direction of
the sun The divided, or multiple fila
menta of the tail, some of which
are slightly curved, form a most inter
e6ting feature i'll this comet. The APP
parent activity of its nucleus possibly
promises something interesting to OBJ
servers in the near future. The motion
Of the comet in three days has been II
and IA min in right ascension eastward
and southwark in declinat!On ) deg and
20 min. The rapid motion indicates that
tue comet probably is not far away. 1t
is moving away from the sun, but prob
ably approaching the earth. 1t Is not
now known whether the comet Is new
or old. The question will be settled
very soon when enough observations
have been secured to determine its
orbit"

point that appears cloudy, it seems, is
whether the trustees may avail them
selves of the right to establish the
free text book system when the people
fail to vote for it. The reply invariably
is that the trustees may adopt the sys-

DECIDED STAND.
Attitude of Hawaii Towards the United
States.

San Francisco, CAL, September 90
Honolulu advices per steamship Mari
posa, which arrived yesterday, are as fol-
lows: 1t is learned that the government
will henceforth take decided stand in
the negotiations with the United States
The Annexation Club and the govern
ment announce semi-officially that they
will abide the issue together. When this
is considered in connection with the fact
that the governments 400 men were sup
ported by the 800 mem bers of the club, it
becomes significant as showing the COM
bined strength in the event of an emer-
gency The apparent serenity of affairs
is misleading. 1t is believed that, should
the Provincial government show inde-
cision after the arrival of Minister Willis,
positions will be filled by persons who
have the best interests of the country at
heart with fear of the future.
The appointment uf Minister Willis
was well received here. Ellis Mills is I'M
popular here because of his Royalist pro-
clivities, shown while acting as Com
missioner Blount's secretary, and his
appointment is not looked upon as a
wise one. The government had the ques-
tion of his recall under considerations. 1t
is believed he will not be treated cordial
ly by the Americans here, or at least will
find himself among silent friends, who
will await any communication or propo-
sition he has to make to the Provisional
government on the part of the United
States government.

Emperor The writer speaks of the "col-
lapse of hopes of reconciliation" and
closes thus:
"The words exchanged by the emperor

relations between them. In that inter
view the Emperor said: "You refuse
then even if your master commands?"

power ends at the threshold of my wife's

interviews with Prince Bismarck in the

inspiration" occasionally. 1t is not be-
lieved, however, that in this case he
speaks with authority. Bismarck is said
to be mending in health.

people are perishing for want OF the life

public fountains are extremely pitiful.
The fountains are almost dry and wom-
en- wait hours in the sun for their turn
to fill their water jars, and then have to
go off with the few mouthfuls given
them out of charity by some professional
water carriers. 1t is often half mud.

House on the Federal Election Law
Redemption of Mutilated Currency
Maine Pensions.
Washington, September 20. Mr.. Whar-
ton Barker of Philadelphia, is in the
city for the purpose of pressing upon the
attention of Senators the combined silver
seignorage and protection proposition
formulated by the Manufacturers Club
of Philadelphia, with view of establish
ing an alliance between the advocates OF
silver and of protection. Some prominent
Senators on the Republican side have ex-
pressed their views upon it in advance.
Mr.. Aldrich is quoted as saying in regard
to it that in his opinio3 it is not only a
wholly unnecessary but an inexplicable
proposition, which will do great harm.
He believes it does not stand ghost
of chance of being accepted In Con-
gress. Senator'S Sherman, Hoar, Frye
and others expressed like views Mr..
Barker's propositions are as follows:
First-That the United States shall ad-
NIT silver bullion from American mines
to coinage in it's mints upon the payment
by the owner of seigniorage absorbing
three -fourths of the difference between
the market (London) price of the bullion
and it's value when coined.
Second-That foreign silver shall be
admitted only for coinage purposes at a
seigniorage absorbing all of the differ
ence between the market Uondon) price
of its value when coined.
Third-That the United States shall
invite, at once, a conference with those
nations of the world which have not
committed themselves to gold mono
metallism. This would include especial
ly the nations of North and South
America, Japan and China; and in
Europe, France, Russia and Others.
These nations are deeply interested, as
we are, in resisting the attempts to de.
crease the power of silver, and many of
them, particularly those of America
and Eastern Asia, are those to whom we
may most easily and advantageously sell
the excess of our manufacturing indus
tries. Such conference should exclude
England and Germany; its conclusion,
with out them, would direct the money
policy of the world, preserve the integri-
ty of bi-metallism, and prevent the en-
slavement of the United States and others
by the capitalist classes of the two great
creditor nations. Id
