SEARCH FOR new COMET
PROF. PAYNE AT NORTHFIELD
HAS NOT LOCATED 1T YET.

FARIBAULT, Mimi, June -(Srec1al.)
Prof. w. w. Payne, of the observatory
at Mortified, who has been taking Cd
servations of the new comet of the
twentieth century, disagrees with some
of the other observers as to the course
taken by the comet, and will publish MS
reasons with a diagram next week in his
own paper called Popular Astronomy
Thus far, he says, the comet has been
seen only twice in the Northern hemi-
sphere, at the Yerkes and at the LEX
observatories. The newspapers say that at
the Yerkes the comet was seen 10 degrees
Forth of the sun on April q. Prof.
Payne says he cannot reconcile this
statement with his drawings, which
have been made from elements comput-
ed by Dr. Kreutz, of Kiei.
The honor of discovering this comet,
the first of this century, belongs to Halls,
Of Queenstown, Cape Colony. The dis
covery was made the morning Of April
"a, at which time the comet was near It's
perihelion. and was thus quite b iSlt
about first magnitude. 1t was independ-
emily discovered ar Cape Lueewin. Aus
tralia, and Arequ o. Peru. All observa-
tions agree in saying that the comet was
very bright and could easily be seen by
the naked eye for some days after the
discovery
The head was circular and nebulous,
being more than degree in diameter,
having well defined nucleus and tai
variously reported from to 10 degrees In
length. Yerkes' observatory reports two
tails plainly visible April q, while others
give it a triple tail
A reference to the drawing, which was
made from the elements computed by DE-.
Kreutz, of Kiel, the orbit of the eartn
being projected on the plane Of she
comets orbit, will show why 1t is seen
with so much difficulty In this kemt-
sphere. 1t had already passed its descend
ing node before discovery, and has zen
south of the ecliptic ever since, beng
therefore much more favorably situated
for observers in the Southern hemisphere
than in the Northern.
At present Prof. Payne says the comet
is moving directly away from US, and VIII
no doubt soon be lost to view. It has
been diligently looked for at the North
field observatory, but the search has as
vet been frllitIess

san FRANCISCO, June Soldiers -
the number of 500 or 60 INDUCED in
riot last night and wrecked one Ct ths
many drinking places just outside the
Preside reservation.
There are many conflicting stories as TO
the origin Of the trouble. The so.de-s OF
the FOrty-SiXth Volunteer infantry were
mustered out Of the service yesterday,
and the men given their discharges and
pay. Most Of the men had several hum
dred dollars coming to them, and they
did considerable drinking in the Preside
resorts.
A man by the name Of Morgan. Of tho
Forty-slxth, was found unconscious in
the front Of Mrs. Peers saloon. Two OF
Morgan companions took him 70 camp
for treatment. The doctor pronounced It
a case where drugs had been administer
ed. The news spread rapidly about the
camp, and soon there were a dozen or
more men running to Mrs. Powers
saloon. They demanded reparation for
the drugging Of their cOmrade, but any
knowledge Of the affair was denied. Two
or three men lounging about the pace
sided in with the woman, and ordered
the soldiers from the premises. They
went back for relnforcements, and spread
the report that two Of their companions
had been killed in the saloon.
A mob, made up Of members Of the
FOrty-fifth and Forty-siXth regiments,
then rushed pell-mell through the
Preside gates to Che saloon. which was
entirely wrecked. The place caught fire
from the overturned lamps. One Of the
bartenders was severely beaten and cut
There were threats to lynch him, WREN a
squadron Of cavalry and the provost
guard Of sixty men from the Forty NTH
arrived and rescued him.
The efforts OF the cavalry and guard
to dispense the crowd We're futile until
the fire department turned the hose upon
then. This and the entire guard of the
post helped to restore order. A careful
investigation Of the report that some OF
the soldiers had died from druggel liquor
proved that such was rot the case. Nor
gan, Of the Forty-sixth regiment. was
the only man whom it is thought might
have been the victim Of a drug.
An investigation Of the riot will be
made today by the police and military Of

Drought in North Dakota Is causing
Alarm Among Farmers

BISMARCK, N. D., June 1.-The cattle
ranges in the western part of the state
are badly in need of rain. Last year
there was a partial shortage of feed,
and the necessities of the winter result
ed in the close consumption of the WISH
BILE supply of hay and grass This spring
ance of the drought will be serious The
grass is at a standstill, and good rains
are necessary to insure good stand of
hay. From the Missouri river westward
the principal dependence of the settlers
is upon their holdings of live stock
Nearly every settler has from twenty to
a hundred head of cattle, with sheep
and horses, and all depend upon the wild
grass for hay and feed during the win
ter. The condition of the cereal crop in
the western part of the state is not
causing so much apprehension as Is the
prospective shortage of hay, if the
drought continues z e.-s
