NOTICE TO STAR GAZERS.
The New Celestial Visitor Is Bright, Some
what Rapid and Ascending.

The New Celestial Visitor Is Bright, some
what Rapid and Ascending.
BOSTON, July 13.-Professor Wendell
says that notwithstanding the unfavora-
BILE conditions last night the newly dis
covered comet showed "a sharp nucleus,
decidedly brighter than the adjacent por-
tions-that is, the nucleus was surrounded
by bright coma" Photographs of the
celestial stranger show its tail to be di-
vided or rifed.
The comet is moving easterly at rate Of
over half an hour daily in right ascension
and southerly at about minute degrees
i'm declination. On account of its rapid
easterly motion IL will be somewhat higher
above the northwestern horizon with each
succeeding night for short time, So that
it is likely to become brighter, provided it's
intrinsic light does not correspondingly
diminish.
The comet was visible last night to the
naked eye as a hazy star above the north
western horizon at 8 o'clock or a little ear
lier. 1t was more distinct later, but some
what lower down. The tail was indis-
tinctly visible to searching sight. The
length of the tail was expressed by the
professor as 10 or II degrees, about 3Hs
magnitude.
Professor Pickering, the chief astrono-
mer, says that the three more interesting
features of the comet are that it is bright,
somewhat rapid and ascending.

strange thing happened today. Admiral
Gherhsrdi visited seventeen shipe and not

Of visits would have been the occasion of
hilinG this beautiful atmosphere with
suiphurous smoke, but when he left
MS own ship the admiral ordered
that no salute b fired, and Of the foreign
ers ne made the request that the
same noisy honor b omitted. Even with
eleven more men-of-war to arrive, the
naval rendezvous has already assumed the
proportions which entitle It TO rank a. one
OF the greatest aGgrsgations Of floating
batteries which the world ever Witnessed.
Admiral 0herardi said today that the ships
participating in the review represented
fully $23o00.000. They manned about
10000 men. The admiral expressed
pleasure % the interest displayed BY
the newspapers in the rendezvous.
He said he supposed the correspondent
would like to know how much money was
wasted in firing salutee, and receiving
reply in the afimative, the admiral threw
aside dignity and actually chuckled. Then
he said: "Well, a. . matter OF fact. al
the powder We use has been condemned
and Il really Il no good for anything else. |"
The crowd here has continued to in.

ships tonight added to the constantly In.

into the harbor 90 late in the afternoon

gan to boom her cannons. some distance
