the planet Saturn. It's motion is re-
trograde, or in a direction opposite to
that of the planet All the planets
move eastward, while Halley's comet
moves westward. 1t most not be as
sumed that its orbit is so large that it
extends into the region of the fixed
stars
This comet is the most famous in
history on account Of being the first
known to move in a closed orbit. 1t
Is an object of extraordinary attention
from its brilliancy. its sensational size,
the record of its returns, extending
back nearly 20OO years, and the con-
sternation once spread throughout the
world by the belief that it would des-
troy the earth.
In 1852, during the reign of Charles
H. a very large comet appeared, which
was observed by Newton, HALEY, and
other astronomers of the time. Hal
ley followed its course mong the stars
ana comparing his observations with
the records of previous comets came
to the conclusion that the comets OF
1856, 1881 and 1907 were but different
appearances of the same object. He
staked his reputation on the predic-
tion that it would return in about rs
years. True to this prediction, it ap-
peared in 1853. 1t is said that HALEY
traced the returns of his comet back
for II centuries from the records of
early writers. In the year 45 b. c. a
comet appeared that was so bright it
could be seen in the daytime.
Halleys comet of 1882 was large
and more brilliant than that of 1856,
and its tail was more than $4,000, 600
miles in length. However, Newton
had Just discovered the laws of uni
versal gruvftation, (which explained
the motion of planets and comets
around the sun and placed the solar
system on a scientific basis, so this
appearance was robbed of its terrors.
From what has been said It will be
observed that the period of Halley's
comet is about Is 1-2 years 1t last
appeared in 1885 and it's coming was
expected in the latter part Of 1909.
True to it's past record for regularity,
1t has appeared.

SCIENTISTS
COMING HERE
TO SEE COMET
COMMITTEE ON COMETS OF AMER cAN ASTRONOMICAL AssoCA-
TIoN WILL STOP AT HONOLULU ON WAY ROUND WORLD
FOLLOWING THE VIEW OF HA COMET-ExPECTED THAT
LOCAL PEOPLE SHARE EXPENSE

Dr. w. d. Alexander the Nestor of
local scientists, has received advices
that the Committee on Comets of the
American Astronomical Association
Will send an expedition round the
world next summer, following the
wake of Halleys comet to take obser-
vations of 1t at it's successive points
of visibility.
Honolulu has been selected as the
observatory for the Midpacific. This
is a sort of Hobson's choice, for there
is no other place in the middle Of the
Pacific where a telescope could be set
up. 1t will be remembered that the
Government of Germany some years
ago sent an astronomer, DR. Marcuse,
to Honolulu to make longitude obser-
vations for determining the amount OF
wobbling the earth made on its axis,
or something like that DR.. Marcuse
had small observatory quilt for his
work on .J f. Browns place at Wal
ldki, where he favored many residents
with telescope peeps at the wonders
of the heavens.
DR.. Alexander is advised that the
people of Honolulu are expected to
cooperate with the scientific visitors,
at least to the extent of bearing part
of their expenses. No doubt the hos
pitality of this semi-tropic burg Will
be equal to the occasion. Honolulu
will be proud to entertain such men.
On the other hand their presence will
advertise Hawaii around the globe, as
no doubt everything they discover IN
the comet, head or tail, will be
promptly cabled to the outside world.
A cablegram of some weeks ago stat
ing that the comet had been seen with
the naked eye at Chicago was mislead-
ing. Newspapers received since show
ed that the nude optic was at the
small end of a powerful telescope. On
the same occasion a telescope photo
graph of tac comet was taken, which
was regarded as a great triumph OF
science.
After visiting a region that is 90
000, 600 miles more distant than the
outer-most planet of the solar system,
Halley's comet is again approaching
the earth and is nearer to us now than

The supervisorial committee and the
Mayor this afternoon met represen-
tatives of the Mutual Telephone Co..
in regard to the matter of proposed
fees for inspecting street openings to
be made by the company and in re-
gard to the transfer of city wires to
the telephone conduit, over which
there has been dispute.
The discussion boiled down to the
fact that the Telephone people do not
object to being required to get per-
mits for opening streets, but do
strenuously object to having inspec-
tion fees imposed, particularly in view
of what fees might be charged in fu-
ture
Neither side gave into the claims OF
the other as to respective rights, but
finally it was appreciated that COM
promise should prevail, and, inasmuch
as the city and community is to be
benefited by a good telephone sys-
TEN, Supervisor Quinn suggested waiv-
ing the inspection fee and accepting
the company's offer of putting the city
wires in its conduits at Is cents a foot
to cover COSY, upon which basis, ac-
cording to present indications, COM
promise will be effected.
While leaving the determination
of what is to be done between the
City and County and the Mutual Tel
ephone Co., to the Supervisors, First
Deputy City and County Attorney Mil
verton last evening rendered the fol
lowing opinion to the Board on the
proposal made by the telephone com
pany which suggests that the City
pay for space for it's wires in the tele-
phone conduits and grant the com
pany exemption from inspection and
inspection fees in the matter of dig
ging up the streets, the Attorney inti-
mating that the City, having control
of the streets, may insist on the in
spection fees:

the Telephone Company that the

with facilities for placing its police
and fire alarm wires underground in
the conduits of the Telephone Com
pany for the period of twenty-seven
years, for fifteen cent per ouct foot,
and exemption from inspection fees
for openings in the roads, which the
company may hereafter desire to
make throughout the City and Coun'

TEN, together with all the right and
power of extending and maintaining
on public streets in Honolulu and
+ elsewhere on Oahu, where the Tele-
phone Company was maintaining
poles, or where it might have other
structures and place for the attach
ing and maintaining of wires 1t was
further covenanted that the fire
alarm wires might be attached TO
and suspended from the poles and
other structures of the Telephone
+ Company at any time and might be
maintained there for the whole of
the period that the Telephone Com
pany might be entitled to maintain
the same by virtue of the laws OF the
Territory and otherwise.
EXPENSE OF ALTERATION.
The agreement reserved the right
and privilege in the Telephone Com
pany to alter or replace its wires or
poles or other structures, or to
change their location, and further
provided that any expense or charge
for the removal Of the wires boxes
and other apparatus of the fire alarm
system should be borne by the Ter
ritory. The right to use the poles
or other structures or places of the
Telephone Company for the wires of
the fire alarm system was, under
this agreement, to be without charge
to the Territory, and the only expense
that the Territory was to bear, in
case of the altering or replacing Of
the wires, poles or other structures
of the Telephone Company, was the
cost of the removal, shifting or alter
alton of the wires, etc. Of the fire
alarm system.
TERRITORY RELIED ON CON
TRACT.
Subsequent to the execution cf this
agreement and evidently relying up
on the rights and privileges of the
Territory under it, large sums of
money were expended by the Terri
tory for the installation of what is
known as the Gamewell Fire Alarm
and Police Telegraph System, large
such system being strung upon the
poles of the Telephone Company, un-
der the agreement referred to.
NO PROVISION FOR WIRES.
The recent plans of the Telephone
Company for the placing of a part
of its system underground provide,
as / understand it, for the abandon
ment and tearing down of between
$50 and 400 of its poles within the
District of Honolulu. On a large
number of these poles, the wires OF
the police and fire alarm system are
strung under the agreement of Aug
iust /, 1901 In providing for the in
Istallation of it's underground system
the Telephone Company made abso-
.lutely no provision for the wires OF
the police and fire alarm system now
upon it's poles.
TELEPHONE OFFER.
The changed planned by the Tele-
phone Company involved approx
mately 10000 lineal feet of the police
and fire alarm system. The PROPOSE
tion of the Telephone Company now
is to furnish facilities for the police
and fire alarm system for the mum
ber of feet required, to wit, approx
imately 10000 feet at fifteen cents
per duct foot, a total of $500 The
cost of threeinch fibre duct, such
as would be required for the police
and fire alarm wires delivered in Ho
nolulu, is approximately seven cents
