DISCOVERS NEW COMET.
Professor D. W. Morehouse Makes
Find by Cameras Aid.

Lake Geneva, Wis, Sept. 4.-Direc-
tor Edwin B. Frost, of Yerkes OBJ
servatory, Wednesday night an
nounced the discovery of a new comet
through Photographic observations
made by Professor D. w. Morehouse,
of Drake university, of Des Moines.
The presence of the comet was re-
vealed upon development of photo
graphic plates exposed in three
cameras Tuesday night. 1t is clearly
defined and has a tail several degrees
long and was found in the constella-
ton Camelopardalis, remaining above
the horizon throughout the night
Its position was 3 hours, 20 minutes
of right ascension and &C degrees
north declination
Its visual brightness, Professor
Morehouse said. could not be stated
until after further observations had
been made, but it probably will be Wis
ible through an opera glass. The new
comet, he said, had no connection with
Halley's comet.
Professor Morehouse has been en-
gagged during the summer in graduate
work at Yerkes observatory in astron
omy under Professor Barnard.

Jealousy Ends In Double Tragedy in Reno

Jealousy Ends In Double Tragedy in Reno
In fit of jealous rage William Nc
Causland shot and killed Mrs. Nan
Sutherland in the Idana lodging house
in Reno Monday night and then turned
the murderous weapon upon himself,
infiicting wound that proved fatal i'm
mediately. McCausland had been
enamoured of the Sutherland woman
for long time and when he met her in
the dive where the double killing took
place, he importuned her to foresake
her family and husband and take up her
abode with him. She refused the pro-
position and following little further
persuasion, the love-crazed man drew
revolver and shot the unfortunate
woman dead. AS she fell to the floor
lifeless he seemingly contemplated the
awful nature of his act, and before any
of the terrified spectators could reach
him, he. turned the weapon upon himself
and followed his victim to eternity.
The affair created a profound sensation
among the inmates of the house. Both
parties were we'll known in Reno and
the surrounding towns, but little is
known Of their previous attachment.
