Chicago The Observation-Disclosures
are raising more If a hubbub else

woes upon the vaccine points, and
they declare that the virus is more

this is true, but it also happens to be
true that smallpox itself is unusually
malignant this year. The medical
theory is that these periods Of viru-

BIG COMET COMING OUR WAY.

A Splendid Traveller Due to Come Within
Human Vision In 1911.
Halley's comet is coming 0ack-
the comet which in the year 1865
shed celestial splendor over the Nor
man cjnquest and whose terror.in-
spring visit was COMMUNICATED by
the hand of Queen Matilda in the
Bayeaux tapestry; the comet that in
1856, the year OF the battle of Bel.
grade. scared the Turk and Christian
alike and was anathemaized by a
bull from the Pope; the comet whose
strange scimiter form still chilled
the marrow Of the ignorant and SUI
perstitiouS at its latest return IN
1885. 1t is yet far away, says the
Providence Journal, but the eye of
science sees it, already within the
orbit OF Neptune, rushing sunward
aud earthward with constantly in
creasing velocity as it falls along the
steep curve of its orbit. And a call
to arms. a call for preparation, has
just been issued from one of the chief
watch towers of astronomy. Prof.
Glasenapp announces that the COM
putting bureau established by the
Russian Astronomical Society has
undertaken the calculation of the
true path Of Halley's comet with E
view to predicting the exact date Of
the next return. He hopes that as
tronomers acquainted with unpub-
lished observations of the comet will
communicate the information to the
society. After its perihelion the
comet was watched %retreating out
into space until May. 1896, when it
was finally swallowed from sight. 1t
will be in perihelion again about
1911, but with the great telescopes
now in existence. and the greater
ones that may then have been con.
structed, it is probable that the comet
will be detected coming sunward a
year or more earlier than that. The
fact that the labor Of computing the
precise time OF Its return is already
about to begin gives assurance that
the next time it will not be a Ques.
tion Of how many days, but rather OF
how many hours, or ever minutes,
the calculations will be in error.

THE farmer who has lived fifty years
has seen a great change in the bust
ness to which his life was devoted.
He has seen machinery take the
place Of hand labor; he has come to
do all the narrowing, blowing.
planting and reaping by the aid Of
machinery which does in one day
what it once took a man six days to
do. In the house, although fewer
labor-s3 vers have been introduced.
there have been some. There are
few farm houses now where the water
comes from a well with a we'll sweep.
There is as much machinery to ease
women's work as for mems work, but
unfortunately some mel do not buy
these things. However. there are
few farm houses lacking some of the
conveniences Of life. These machines
simplify life, give men and women
time for rest and culture, more leisure
in which TO cultivate the refnements
of life. Is that the effect they have
had: Is farm work so lesseped that
men find time to study? If not. why
is it that the condition of the farmer
is not more comfortable, more Gull
tured than in the days when he
worked without any of the aids now
common:

ONE Henry H. Foulke, a bias.
phemous rascal-half lunatic, half
knave-who claims to be a second
Messiah, announces that he will lead
a gang Of hoboes to Ruzzard's Bay
and 60 into camp there for the
avowed purpose Of annoying Mrs.
Cleveland. He is probably lying.
But he ought to be kicked anyhow.
Anyone who comes within range Of
him ought to kick him for luck. and
if he should actually venture within
ten miles Of Gray Gables the male
residents Of that locality should
thrash him within an inch of his life,
give him a much-needed bath in the
sea and ride him out Of the country
on a rail. They can fumigate them
selves at slight expense after the job
is completed.

CAPTAIN MAHAN's visit to London
