BALTIMORE, Md, December 3.-Hal-

seventy-five years, was observed Wednes-

Hooper and other members of the astro-
nom1cal section of the Academy of
Sciences, through the large telescope re-

DR.. Hooper said the comet could be
painly seen through the instrument on
the roof of the building, since the moon
was not shining and there was no mist.

Discovered Two Centuries Ago.

The comet was observed by DR.. HALEY
more than 200 years ago. DR.. HALEY pre-
dicted that 1T would return again. 1t is
calculated that early in May the comet
will come comparatively close to the
earth-about 100000 miles-and that 1t
will present a magnificent spectacle In
the sky. 1t will appear. according to
scientific men, as a brilliant object with a
long. flowing tail. possibly 30 degrees in
length, as long as sivty full moons, and
will stretch the distance from the horizon
to the zenith. 1t Is computed that the
comet will cross the face of the sun and
that the earth will pass through the tail
Of the comet. This comet as is well
known, goes about the sun as one of the
foci of its motion in the path of an
ellipse for the same reason that the
earth journeys once in a year in it's orbit,
being compelled to do SO by the attrac-
ton of gravity

HAS HIS HANDS FULL
HEAVY CALENDAR CONFRONTS
CHAIRMAN MANN OF HOUSE.
Bills Before Committee on Interstate
and Foreign Commerce Cover
Many Subjects.

One OF the busiest and most important
committees in this session of Congress
will be the House committee on inter-
state and foreign commerce. When Chair
man Mann looked over the committee
calendar today of bills already introduced
he found a list long enough to daunt any
one but glutton for work. such as he is
AS 1t is he will get his committee to-
gether early next week, appoint subcom-
mittees and start the buzz saw agoing to
trim the measures into shape.
The scope of the bills pending before his
committee ranges from proposition to
prohibit the transportation of aduiterated
paris green in interstate commerce to a
plan to license corporations doing an in
terstate commerce business. Betwixt and
between these are bills of a serious and
near-serious character, embodying wide
diversity of subjects of federal legisla-
ton.
Most Important Bills.
OF course. the proposed amendments to
the interstate commerce law will be the
most important bills. and already their
name is legion. The chairman himself
will start the ball by leading out bill of
his own making. 1t is now under prep
aration and will be introduced early in the
session. Then other members of the COM
mittee will fall upon him with loud shouts
and point out how 1t can be amended.
while the rank and file of statesmen, corn
field and other kind, will push their pet
projects
Amendments to the Elkins anti-rebate
act will follow next in order. The safety
appliance law is subject to improvement
it would appear from the numerous bills
now pending Bills to prevent the inter-
state shipment Of convict-made goods
will clamOr for attention Bills to pre-
vent transmission of race track gambling
tips, cotton margin quotations, stock
gambling news and the like are pending.
Department of Public Health.
An important subject of legislation be-
fore the committee will be the reorgani-
cation of the marine hospital and public
health service and the suggestion to Gre
ate a department of public health. Ar
bitration between capital and labor, like
the poor, we have always with us. ne
government of the Panama Canal Zone
is under jurisdiction of this committee.
The use of navigable streams and the
construction of dams thereon for power
purposes will have to receive attention
This will not be COMPOUNDED with the
general subject of conservation OF power
sites, since other committees Will contest
Tor Jur1Sdlctlon, the committees on dsiicui-
ture on irrigation and on public buildings
and grounds each demanding Whack at
the subject.
The federal licensing of corporations
will open up a wide field of discussion
One suggestion is to authorize voluntary
licensing of corporations, embodying
proposition to give the government GER
tain supervisory powers. the idea being
that the corporation would be compen-
stated by practically a government charter
which would enhance the public conf
dence in its securities.

Observed by Others.

The comet was first observed by Dr.
Hooper at 7:4O o'clock, and after he was
sure he had made such an interesting dis
coyery he called in several other members
Of the astronomical section, who agreed
that 1t was the comet so much sought for.
DR.. Hooper has been watching for the
comet every favorable night, but the re-
cent condition Of the moon prevented The
observation of any faint objects in the
heavens. Last night the conditions were
ideal for observation.
DR.. Hooper was greatly elated over his
discovery, he says it proves to the
people that the members of the academy
are not asleep, but keenly alive to what is
going on in the scientific world.
Mr.. Hooper said that after he picked
up the comet again in six-inch glass 1t
appeared bright enough to be distinguish
ed without any doubt. 1t showed higher
up and in a clearer sky. This was about
1870 o'clock.
The comet was first seen September II
through a fifteen-inch instrument at the
Harvard Observatory. About month
later it was seen at Mortified, Mimi,
through a siXteen-inch instrument,
AS far as is known this is the first time
that the comet has been observed through
Observation-Disclosures instrument
which gives the members of the acad-
envy additional grounds for congratula-
ton. This instrument was acquired by
the academy last winter from Mr.. George
r. Vickers, the capitalist and student Of
science, whose observatory at Mont alto
is famous. 1t Is an immense telescope,
which looks much like g. great cannon
pointing to the skies

BEN AYRES BOOKED FOR
ASST SERGEANT-AT-AR

Clark W. Metzger, chairman of the
Stark county Republican executive
committee, upon returning from Co
lumbus, yesterday, gave out the infor-
nation that the appointment of Ben
Ayres as assistant sergeant-at-arms of
the senate was practically assured.
Ayres is well known in political circles
of Stark county, being an active Re-
publican committeeman in the Rich
vile precinct, to the southwest of Can
ton. His aspirement to office has been
matter of discussion among Stark
county politicians, since the cleo
tion. The announcement will probab-
ly create little surprise, as it was con-
sidered from the first that his chances
for the appointment were good.
A number of Stark county poll
ticians returned from Columbus Sat-
urday and Sunday, after having seen
the virtual ending of the senatorial
fight. Among these were Clark w.
MetZger Ed. Bowman, Ben Ayres, DR..
T. G. McQuate, George Crawford, of
Massillon, and Barry Dudley, of the
Massillon State hospital All seemed
well pleased with the outcome of the
race for the Ohio toga.

A SEVEN YEAR OLD IN
ROLE OF HORSE THIEF

Canton is always producing novel
ties. This time it is a horse thief,
seven years of age. Johnny Metro is
the name of the little urchin who went
to the First United Brethren church
during services just before the noon
hour Sunday, unhitched a spirited
team of horses being hitched in dou-
BILE carriage and drove them away.
Before the loss of the horses was dis
covered at the church the youth drove
the team of horses to the horse ex-
change in the west end of the city,
where he asked to have them cared
for. The man at the place was little
suspicious and telephoned to the po-
lice station and instructions were CIV
en- him to hold the horses and the
boy until the police arrived. The boy
was taken to the police station and
held there until his father arrived.
He was then released under the prom
Use that he be at the office of Mayor
Turnbull Monday morning.
