The Queer Stories Told About Pioneer
 Washington Rancher.

The Queer Stories Told About Pioneer
 Washington Rancher.
 Among some visitors to Seattle the other day was Peter Gallagher, a rancher living three miles from Ren- ton, says the Seattle Press-Times. Mir. Gallagher is one of the pioneers of the sound country, and has lived on the same place for twenty years or more, taking up quarter section as home stead from the government. By years of hard toll he has cleared up and i'm proved splendid place, which, though secluded from the outside world, is model ranch, of which the owner is Justly proud. Mir Gallagher is not given to hunting and does not molest wild game of any kind, and to this may be ascribed the tameness of a number of animals which make the woods in that vicinity home. One of these, a black bear, has for year visited his stockyard almost daily and eaten with the cattle, lying down among the calves and displaying neither fear nor ferocity. Mir. Gallagher goes among the stock and frequently passes within two or three feet of his bearship, not only in the yard but in the woods. He pays no attention to the bear and the latter never offers to molest him-on the contrary, eats with evident satis- faction pieces of bacon and other scraps from the table that are thrown out to him. The bear is a handsome three hundred pound fellow and appears to enjoy the company of the cattle.
 Other pets are pair of lawns that run around with the young stock on the place, eating with the calves and lying down among them as contented as though with their own kind. They evidently come from the vicinity of Cedar lake, where considerable hunt ing is done and from which section game is being driven. MT. Gallagher says he had rather part with the best cow on his place than one of the lawns. This is the second time lawns have taken up their abode at this place, the first pair coming there about five years ago and remaining with his stock for two years, even going into the stables and being locked up over night. He gave them to neighbor, who in turn presented them to friends at Snoho- mish and up the Skagit. This sounds fshy, but not only is it vouched for, but it is further said that wild ducks and geese alight in his yard and show no fear in his presence, though the ap- pearance of stranger is the signal for flight. MT. Gallagher never hunts and will not allow hunting on his place nor interference in any way with his pets, either quadrupeds or winged.

To Measure Fixed Stars.

Prot. Holden communicates to San Francisco paper what he calls the very important discovery lately made at the Lick observatory by Prof. Campbell. It is an ingenious method for measur- ing the dimensions of the fixed stars. In many cases the method is so deli cate and beset with so many difficult ties that success is doubtful; but Prof. Campbell has found one star on which he has made successful observations
 They are directed to the lengths of the bright lines in the spectrum, which in- dicate respectively the height to which each substance extends-not difficult in the solar spectrum; but it was en- tirely unexpected to find a bright line spectrum in the star under observation surrounded by an atmosphere of hydro gen gas of such enormous extent as to be measurable. Prof. Holden declares the discovery to be entirely unique and to open aI entirely new field of knowl- edge, -.s.-.------

A COMET COMING.
Splendid Traveller Due to Come Within
 Human Vision in 1911.

Splendid Traveller Due to Come Within
 Human Vision in 1911.
 Halley's comet is coming back, the comet which in the year 1066 shed a celestial splendor over the Norman conquest anG whose terror-inspiring visit was commemorated by the hand of Queen Matilda in the Bayeux tapes try; the comet that in 1456, the year of the battle of Belgrade, scared the Turk and Christian alike and was anathema- tized by a bull from the pope; the comet whose strange scimetar form still chilled the marrow of the ignorant and superstitious at its latest return in 1885.
 It is yet far away, says the Chicago Times, but the eye of science sees it, already within the orbit of Neptune, rushing sunward and earthward with constantly increasing velocity as it falls along the steep curve of its orbit. And call to arms, call for prepara- ton, has just been issued from one of the chief watch towers of astronomy. Prof. Glasenapp announces that the computing bureau established by the Russian Astronomical society has un- dertaken the calculation of the true path of Halley's comet with view to predicting the exact date of the next return. He hopes that astronomers ac- quainted with unpublished observa- tions of the comet will communicate the information to the society.
 After its perihelion the comet was watched retreating out into space until May, 1886, when it was finally swal- lowed from sight. 1t will be in peri helion again about 1911, but with the great telescopes now in existence and the greater ones that may then have been constructed it is probable that the comet will be detected coming sun ward 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 question of how many days but rather of how many hours or even minutes the calculations will be in error.

An Ingenious Rain Producer.

A rainmaler in India has an ap- paratus, consisting of a rocket capable of rising to the height of mile, con taining a reservoir of ether. In its descent it opens parachute, which causes it to come down slowly. The ether is thrown out in fine spray, and its absorption of heat is said to lower the temperature about it sufficiently to condepse the vapor and produce a limited shower.

More Tarln Complications.

WAsHINGToN, Oct. 16. Another COM
plication has arisen regarding the
free alcohol section of the new tariff
law. Secretary Carlisle, owing to the
failure of congress to make the nec-
essary appropriation, is unable to put
the law into effect. Notwithstanding
the secretary's decision, it is contend
ed that alcohol used in the arts. etc,
IS free since August 8. Users Of
alcohol In medicine and the arts want
TO know If they were violating the
law in removing revenue stamps from
the empty barrel. II they do not they
will have no evidence upon which to
base claims against the government
for the return of the duty paid since
the law went into effect. On the
other hand, as the law now stands,
they are liable TO heavy penalties for
not destroying the stamps when the
barrels are empty.
