COMET in VIEW
EARLY RlsERs OR LATE TARRl-
ERs CAN NOW SEE A REAL
LIVE COMET.
TRAVELS THROUGH EASTERN
skY-ls SEEN WITH NAKED
s EYE At s "a. M.

Es$ B1SmarckerS who want to arise
early in the morning most any day
for few days may. have the unus-
ual opportunity of observing COM
ct with the naked eve. 1t will only
be for a few days however. for the
comet is travelling toward the sun
ai,i the light from that body will
soon make it impossible to observe
the peculiar body.
Capt. ]. H. Darling, assistant en-
gineer at Duluth, observed the COM
ct. making quite a study of it, It
is the Daniels comet, 1907d, OBJ
served about month ago by Pro-
fessor Daniels of Princeton univer-
sity. Notice of it has been made in
various periodicals, but Captain OAR
ling says that the sight is such a
rare one that the opportunity to OBJ:
serve the comet should not be pass
ed by.
According to the observations
made by Captain Darling the comet
is small one compared with some
discovered some years ago, but it is
in regulation comet form, consisting
[: of bright nucleus with a nebulous
envelope extending outward in di-
rection from the sun, forming the
tail. The comet is seen in the east
ern sky, and about 3 o'clock in the
morning is the best time for observ-
ing it.
The tail of the comet as seen with
the naked eye is about 2 degrees
long and about twice that size with
a field glass. At the first glance the
tail is not seen at all, but after once
seen. a large teleschops will not
show it VI. any better than field
glass. z
The light in the head OF the comet
was observed by Mr.. Darling to be
about that of a second magnitude
star. like the north star. The posi-
ton this morning was between the
constellation Of Orion and the Twins
a little below the line which joins
the two bright stars, Betelguese and
Pollux, and about half way between
these stars. It lis moving east to-
ward the sun at the rate Of about
2 degrees daily and consequently
will not be visible for very long.
In addition to the comet, Mr.. Oar.
ling saw other interesting things in
the sky. Jupiter and Mercury are
seen in the low eastern sky before
daylight and will soon the morning
stars. Saturn is visible all night
long. .5.5 4 .ss5 3 @s{
The sight of comet visible to
the naked eye is a very rare one.
This is the fourth comet that has
been discovered this year, one hay-
ing first been found by farmer lad
at Cottage Grove, Wis, and later
observed by Director Comstock and
Professor Flint at Washburn obser-
vatory. But all except the one OBJ
served by Mr.. Darling are invisible
to the naked eye.
