The song I was arrested for singin',"
Mr.. Collins replied.
Patroiman John Conlon hastened to
explain that IL was not the song itself,
but the defendants manner OF voicing
il, that. provoked the arrest. Indeed,
the ofFicer admitted that he rather ad-
mired the sentiment Of the song, as IL
treated in an adulatory way of the
pluck and cheerfuness displayed by the
refugees and the tune was not half
bad.
But the vocalism was execrable. Mr..
Collins naturally raucous tones being
augmented in harshness by frequent
hiccoughy explosions evidently induced
By his condition, which was that of in

Mr.. Collins cast a reproachful glance

Likewise the awful fire,
That made so many ruins
And caused distress most dire.

After pausing a moment. apparently
in expectation OF comment that did not

vocal tubes and said: That's the first

THE TAIL OF A COMET.
It's Ever Changing Mass and Why It
FIees From the SUN.


It's Ever Changing Mass and Why It
FIees From the SUN.
The tail of comet is not formed Of
the same particles which composed 1t
yesterday or even an hour or moment
ago. 1t is constantly being renewed at
the expense of the nucleus. AS the long
stream of black smoke from the neigh
boring factory or mill is being continu-
ally renewed by fresh particles of car
bon released by the combustion going
on in the furnace below, SO is the Won
ierful luminous train of cometary bod
les being constantly replenished by
particles flying from or rather driven
from the nucleus by the intense heat Of
the SUM-
Then, again, how Infinitely small and
how intensely luminous must these par
ticles that go to make up the tail of
comet be! This thought Is suggested by
the fact that it has been proved that in
some cases the nucleus of comets which
are only few hundred miles in dame
ter will have enormous fanlike tails
stretching across space for distance
exceeding 2000O0,OO0 miles and having
a bulk exceeding that Of the sun by
more than 10000 times! Professor p.
e. Barnard beautifully illustrates the
formation of a comets. tail by ''suppos-
ing thus: Suppose, for example, that
the nucleus of comet is composed of
ice. Then suppose the heat of the sun
to be so intense as to rapidly melt that
portion Of the ice globe exposed to the
action of its rays, which are strong
enough to Immediately convert it into
yapor, which ascends toward the sun.
Imagine. now a fierce wind blowing
out from the sun, causing the vapor
which meets 1t to be whirled out into
space behind the comet. This will
clearly illustrate the theory of the for
nation of comets tail, only that the
nucleus Of the comet is not ice and the
vapor is not water vapor, neither is the
force which drives it away from the
sun a fierce wind.
The unknown force limited at by the
astronomer above quoted readily ex-
plains why a comets tail, as rule,
points in an opposite direction to the
sun The Russian astronomer Bredie-
chen distinguishes three different types
of cometary tails-those composed Of
particles having the specific gravity of
hydrogen, those having the specific
gravity of hydrocarbon gas and third
class having all the peculiarities Of an
equal mixture Of hydrogen and iron
vapor.

Gov. Davis in the erritory.

Sallisaw, |. T.-Governor Jeff Davis
Of Arkansas addressed one of the larg-
est Democratic gatherings in the court
house in this place November that
has ever assembled in this young city
While the court room was crowded to
its utmost capacity, close attention
was given and the best of order Pc
vailed. Governor Davis was in the
best Of moods, and his speech was 50
conclusively in favor of good govern
ment and for the interests of the DEM
0cratic party that many Republicans
frankly admitted that his address was
the very best that had been heard dur
ing this campaign. His speech was
clear of abuse and was so convincing
as regards the policies of the two ma
tional parties that numbers of votes
that have been uncertain heretofore
have been added to the Democratic
lists. Quite a number of ladies were
present, and his appeal to the citi-
zens and the ladies for the preserva-
ton of the institutions of our form of
government went home to each indi-
vidual regardless of party affiliations.
Governor Davis wound up his terrific
rial tour at Muldrow in the evening,
speaking to an audience of six thous-
and people. He was preceded by
Judge V. Bourland and Col. Sam
Chew, both ArkanSanS
