NEW COMET IS SEEN
BY MANY IN CITY
Early Risers in Americas See 1t
Plainly.

A comet, which is just now attract
ing considerable attention, may be
seen from o'clock a. M, till daylight
in the eastern portion of the heav-
ems, almost directly over the part of
the horizon where the sun rises, and
about half way to the zenith at 4:30
o'clock. To the naked eye it appears
as a star of the second or third mag
nitude, with a very faint tail extend
ing westward and southwark. An
opera glass shows the tail more clear
ly, and a good telescope reveals a
thin straight tail several degrees long.
1t is now moving rapidly eastward
towards the sun, and soon it will be
lost in the dazzling light of the lumi-
nary.

NEW SCHOOL HOUSE
CAUSING TROUBLE
Board Divided on Question of
Its Location
Months Slipping BY and No Decision
Is Made by Trustees and
None Likely.
HOW THEY STAND IN NATTER

Facing the possibility of unhoused
school children next September. the
school trustees are divided on the
question of location of the new
building south of Broadway, and a
month of time already has slipped
away without any definite steps be-
ing taken toward providing for the
district now supplied by the Long
fellow building. The question of
location for the new building has not
been put to a vote but when it is, it
probably will show an even division.
President List and Trustee Becken-
bach head one faction, which favors
the Lyon property, or a location in
that neighborhood. Trustee Kelley
and Secretary Byrd head the other
faction, that thinks the new building
should be on the other side of jack
son street.
Three-quarters of an hour were
given to the discussion of sites in
the meeting of the school board last
night Much difficulty in securing
fair valuations on property has been
encountered by the committee and
where such conditions have been
found. other considerations make
the site undesirable.
One point has the unanimous
agreement of the board, and that is
that the new building should not be
located where a conflict between the
colored pupils of the Lincoln build
ing and the new building would oc-
cur.
Allowing a full month for the act
ual construction to get under way, 1t
would be June 1 before the building
could be started and three months
would be left to get it into shape for
school purposes. The trustees in Sc
Ilecting site, consider the district
to be served. and endeavor to make
the walking distance evenly balanced
for all pupils. The trustees, who IA
vor a site beyond Jackson street, say
that the Lyon property would not be
any better located than the Long
fellow building was. While the other
trustees say that a new building must
be built in the near future to ac-
commodate the pupils out toward the
Union station and Worten's addition
and that to build the new school now
to serve those sections of the city
would disarrange the balance that
would be kept by building on the
Lyon property.
Everywhere the trustees look for
a site the valuations rise speedily
and the trustees think that If the taa
assessors would follow their tracks
a different assessment of certain
property would follow.

friends, politicians. and people re-

try who want him to run again. The
president does not feel. however,
that the time has come for him to
publish a statement he does not be-
lieve that politics is an all absorbing
question with the American people
lat this time.
Later on, If the demand for Presi-
dent Roosevelt's nomination should
continue, and should come from a
larger section OF the people. he will
make a statement OF Remuneration In
the way indicated above.
