ENcKE's COMET NOW VISIBLE.
Famous Fiery Phenomena May Now
Be Seen.

Be Seen.
Encke's famous comet is now ap-
preaching perihelion and is visible to
Inland Empire people with telescope.
This comet is famous in that it has
the shortest period of recurrence,
about three and on-fourth years. 1t is
named for Johann Franz Encke, Ger
man astronomer, who discovered the
remarkable shortness of it's period,
but the comet was really first observed
by Pons, the famous French astrono-
mer in Marseilles in 1918. 1t has APP
peared with great brilliancy on several
occasions. Astronomers say that it
will again describe the long fiery tail
resembling that of fish that has char
acterized it's former appearances. 1t
is gradually getting nearer and nearer
the sun, and the general belief is that
it Will one day fall into that body
and be consumed.
The comet at the present time is in
the southern part of the constellation
Cetus, rising above the southeastern
horizon at about 7:45 in the evening,
so that 1t is in good position for OBJ
seryation about $3.50 p. m, but is not
visible without the aid of a telescope.
1t is slowly moving in a southwesterly
direction and will reach perihelion, or
make its nearest approach to the sun
January 3, 1905. 1t is noted as being
nearest the sun of all known comets,
as having the shortest period of re-
currence (9.9O3 years., and as having
its period shortened from two hours to
two and one-half hours with each re-
turn to pehihelion.

F'rederichsruh, Sept. 19.-Prince
Herbert Bismarck is dead. The end
was painless.
Since he ceased to be foreign min
lister on the retirement of his father
in 1890, Prince Henry Bismarck had
taken Fart in public affairs only as
member of the reichstag His atti-
tude had been more of a man not ap-
preciated by his sovereign, and who
is waiting in the background for an
opportunity to resume his career
His delivery as a parliamentary
speaker improved year by year. He
always declined to join any political
group, steadfastly calling himself an
independent His hauteur and impe-
rious manners in early life, when he
was overconscious of the fact that he
was the son of the most powerful
statesman in Europe, softened in later
life.
Prince Bismarck's father trained him
for his successor as chancellor of the
GermaE empire and advanced him
rapidly in the diplomatic service I'M
. til, at the age of 40, he was minister
of foreign affairs, in which position he
took part in nearly every important
national incident.
Elopement With a Princess.
An incident that nearly wrecked
Prince Bismarck's career and that
caused the old chancellor annoyance
was Prince (then count Herberts
elopement with Princess Carolath
Beuthen, the wife of Prince Karl, the
head OF that distinguished Silesian
house. Prince Bismarck at that time
was his fathers private secretary
Count Herbert lived with the princess
in southern Italy for few weeks, ant
then, at the command of his father
returned to Germany. The princess
was divorced and has since died.
The title of Prince Bismarck anC
the large fortune of the deceased will
go to his seven year old son, Otto.
The late Emperor Frederick gave
to Chancellor Bismarck extensive a
Friedrichsruh, which have since in
creased in value, and the chancellor
gave to Prince Herbert $2,400,000 il
securities and cash. The estate is nov
estimated to be worth $4,0OO,000.

Say That They Would Shun May
Futures.

New York. March 5.-There was no
change in the morning market. While
Liverpool was lower by about Is, Amer
lean points, and on some options IS
points, the local price went up after
the opening. That is, the same buying
of May started the advance in that
option, and other months moved up in
sympathy.
1t looks very much as though sthe
large operator in this market had en-
tered on a campaign on the bull side,
and finding the market narrow, and
no general buying. had been compelled
to concentrate holdings in May 1t
will be a comparatively simple thing
to repeat last years operations in that
month. Then May was advanced about
2 cents on the buying for control. If
the same interests desire to buy again
this spring, nothing that can now be
seen can prevent an advance. For
this reason we don't care to have any
dealings in May. We would avoid
trading in May on either side. AS far
as the general position goes the mar
ket is not healthy. 1t wants a break
and is prevented. If held here next
week, when receipts are light, there
may be more business and advance,
1t is a one mans market here, and
not encouraging to buyers at the mo-
ment.
