A Racial Test.

A very good story was told iu the
lobby of hotel the other night as
follows An Irishman and a Hebrew
happened to get on Broadway car
at the same time and took seats close
together. Quite naturally they got
into conversation.
The Hebrew allowed that the great
est men OF the country had been from
his race.
The Irishman took exceptions and
stood for his own race.
Finally the argument became so
warm that the two men agreed to g
novel proposition. Both the Irish
man and the Hebrew happened to
wear boards, the former being adorned
with a beautiful bunch OF red Gal.

ressed a collection Of l,ng, black whis.
kers.

whisker from your face, and every

pull one from mine, and we will see
how we come out.

Perils OF the Mariner.

Every device that human insenui-

so far with very little avail. The
chief reason is that fog deprivss the

What Is a Comet 2

A comets head consists Of swarm
of meteors surrounded and inter
spersed with a gaseous atmosphele e
which renders it luminous, and there
fore visible, by continuance of inter
nal discharges When the atmos-
phere disappears, and the discharges
cease, the head becomes invisible, and
the comet becomes a simple meteor
swarm.
According to the modern theory of
electricity, the sun is a negatively
charged body, from whose surface vast
numbers of minute bodies called cor
ruseles are being constantly repslled,
at velocities not far from 100 600
miles per second. These corpuscles,
electrons, or ions, as they are some
times called, are much snaller than
atoms and constitute what was for
merly rather crudely called negative
electricity. Those corpuscles that
strike the comet immediately attach
themselves to be gaseous molecules
surrounding the head, charging them
negatively, and causing them to be re-
PEELED at high speed, not only from
the other molecules forming the head
but particularly from the direction of
the negatively charged sun. The
successive envelopes sometimes seen
surrounding the nucleus Of comet
may indicate either some special ac-
tivity going on within the comet it
self, or they may indicate the effect of
successive waves of corpuscles shot out
from the sun.
A comets tail may therefore be de-
scribed as a current of gaseous par
ticles receding from the head, each
particle or molecule carrying mega.
tive electric charge. A certain amount
of impalpable dust of particular
grade of fneness probably accompan-
les the gaseous stream. In at least
one case this dust was present in suf-
ficient quantities to produce an ap-
probable effect, but it did not extend
to the extreme end Of the tail.
