A WONDERFUL SPECTACLE.
A Comet which -Coaid . Tale unfais-
and Did

WASHINGTON. July fat 1880
o'clock Saturday night the comet which
Is now the object Of 50 much search
and speculation suddenly developed an
enormous tail which To the unprac-
tieed eye was taken to be q display of
aurora boreaIis. At that hour Prof.
friSby. of the Naval observatory. was
studying the comet through the nine
inch glass lie noticed a long streak
Of greenish white light shoot out
from the comet and extend it,
self almost 70 the zenith. At
first. the nucleus of the comet
being at hat moneu hidden by a
fieecy cloud. II was thought that the
aurora borcalis had sent out an adj
vance notice Of a brilliant engagement,
but as there was M iickering. and as
the light came steadily ~fromAThere the
comet had b-en last seen. the observer
concluded that he was witnessing n
comet in process of development The
tail Of the comet was 80 degrees in
length. about sixty times as long As
the moon Is wide. and the tail extended
from 10 degrees above the horizon al
ible to the naked eye. and was watched
for some time by the corps of observers
at the institution
Prof. Frisby said: There Is no way
20 explain the sudden freak of the
comet They are erratic bodies at best.
and the only thing we can say is that
the zone had reached a stage where IL
was ready to throw out the long streak
of luminous gas which we call a tail.
IL "a not a bushy tail. but was a
long ribbon of light about three times
as wide as the moon
