unknown man signing himself. H c.
Frick'' letter requesting the loan of
100000 He had very little to offer
in the way of security, the writer. said.
but he pledged his word that if the
loan was made it should be returned
with interest.
The audacity Of the request inter-
estlng the banks head, and he sent a
trusted agent to find out about the
man FTick. When the agent made his
report the bank decided to make the
loan.
The $4,000 was the foundation of

A number of persons during the last

being too bright when comet could
otherwise have been seen above the
horizon. It is now getting out OF the
neighborhood of the moon, and in Il
week, or sooner can be seen to great
advantage. II is now receding from
the earth. but going towards the sun
so that its brightness more than makes
UP for the brightness mot shrdl cnfwy
up for the lengthening distance. 1t is
now about 100000 miles from the
sun and 100,00O, 900 miles away from
the earth.
For sometime yet it will remain
visible to the unaided eye just before
dawn. To see it, all that is needful
is to get up about half past three IN
the morning and look from any win
dow that has an unobstructed view of
the eastern sky. The comet is moving

The Sharks Mistake.

1From the New York Times }
M1staklng a torpedo for prey, a
shark chased it off the proving grounds
near Sag Harbor, L. T., recently and
was blown to pieces. This is said
to be the first time such thing has
happened, although many kinds of
hsh, including sharks, have been killed
accidentally by the explosion Of tor
pedoes.
A Bliss-Leavitt torpedo was dis.
charged from the gun barge K. w.
bliss In NOyac Bay, near Sag HarbOr,
Oy number of navel men. 1t was
directed toward target set $500 yards
away. The torpedo travelled at a
speed of fifty miles an dour.
The officers, watching it's course
through field glasses, saw the fin Of a
large shark making toward it diagol-
naliy. The shark came I'D
with the missile just as the torpedo
exploded. Pieces of the shark were
spattered over the target. It's body
was later found, minus certain parts
beside the target, where it had been
held by a net The shark measured
over nine feet in length.
