FEARS NO COMETS.
Prof. Colbert Discredits the Dire
Predictions of Prof Falb.
The Latter Positively states Thai
the Earth Will he Destroyed by
Heavenly Visitor ON Mo-
vember 13 Next.

The positive statement of Prof Falb,
of Vienna, that the earth will be de-
stroyed by comet on November Is OF
this year has aroused discussion among
Chicago astronomers. Prof. Elias Col
bert holds that while no scientific man
can say positively such catastrophe
will not occur upon that or any other
certain date, iris equally impossible to
state such a thing will occur at any
set time. Prof. Colbert said. recently:
$50 little is known concerning the
orbits of comets that the chances OF a
collision between any one OF them and
the erath cannot be calculated. Such
a thing is not at all impossible, but no
one can say from scientific stiga-
ton that il will or will not happen
upon any given date.
Prof Falb und oubtedly refers to the
Temple comet, which will cross the
earths path in November and WOULD
strike il but for the fact that this
planet will be on the other side of it's
orbit at that time, some six months
journey away from the danger. know
Ol 10 OlItl COultb W III bt an
where in the neighborhoodof the earth
at that time.
THE earth will pass through the
meteoric rings known as the Novem-
Der rings, on November IA of this year.
There will doubtless be a considerable
meteoric display, bat shat there will
be any serious damage to the earth,
while not impossible is improbable.
'In regard to Prof. Falb's statement
that tidal wave will destroy the At
lantic and Pacific coasts in July and
August, l believe his theory Isl incor-
rect. He states that the earth's crust
is but Is miles thick. whereas scientific
research has shown that its thickness
is between 100 and. $50 miles. 1t is
much less probable tina such disa ter
should occur now than hundred or a
thousand years ago"
