ADDRESSES AT THE BOARD OF TRADE.

ONE Of the good things about our Board Of
Trade IS that at its meetings citizens are
frequently called upon TO express their views
upon any subject that may be OF interest to the
city or the assembled members OF the board. II
IS interesting to hear some of the older members
tell Of the struggles that the organization has
had; Of how it was kept together by a few
staunch men who were working without re-
mission for the organization and pinning their
faith on the future OF Wilmington. And then
for them 10 say with an air OF justihable salts
faction that they have lived to see the .iav when
their labors are rewarded and when the VIII
mington Board Of Trade has gained high repu-
tation throughout the country.
Citizens at the board meetings express them
selves on various matters and their advice is
helpful For Instance, one of the best little al
dresses delivered at one of these meetings was
that by Mr.. Gawthrop, the other evening. n
full OF "reminiscences of earlier Wilmineton
and told of the ship building industry in this cifv
in the days Of long ago.
Mr.. Cawthrop dwelt upon the importance OF a
merchant marine for the United States He told
Of how Wilmington would be benefited and 81
the folly OF building a great navy. the ships 81
which have to carry their Goals in foreign bot
tens lie made an earnest plea for the up.

WATCH FOR TIE Bic SHOW
HaIIey's Comet on the Heavenly Cir
cult and VIII BE Visible
Next Spring.

IF you live until next spring you arc
going to witness one of the most magnifi-
cent sights the heavens have ever dis
closed before our eyes" said q we'll known
membe of the astronomical force at the
United States naval observatory in WASH
ington. "Halley's comet comes only once
in a lifetime. and many persons are born,
live and die without catching a glimpse
Of its marvellous dash Of fire across the
skies. It was last seen in 1885, and few
persons now alive can say they ever wit
messed It,"
The astronomical world is now on the
watch. and huge refracting and rejecting
telescopes are trained upon the heavens
from many points on the earth in a common
effort to locate the comet, which is APP
preaching the earth at a terrific rate.
There is a friendly rivalry TO see which will
be the first to pick up the comet with their
mirrors.
Tn comet in it's full refulgence is not
due until 1910, but by spring 1t will probably
be near enough to be visible by naked eye.
In the past It has spanned the heavens
almost from horizon to horizon, covering
rs much as 100 degrees OF celestial terri
tory, and standing out like a great living
thing OF fire. It is now somewhere off in
space, out not yet visible 10 dhlIOnOHeTb
They confidently expect some one to pick
il up before the end OF 1909, and after that
II will increase in splendOr and size until
II reaches it's nearest approach to the
earth, some time next spring, after which
II will disappear. not to be seen again In
seventy-five years.
"Halley's comet has been visiting the
vicinity Of the earth ever since 200 or 800
years before Christ, said the astronomer.
HALEY was an Englishman. whose name
given to the comet because he was the
first to announce that this particular comet
came near the earth at regular periods
once every seventy-five years. He went
over the records, and by a series Of com
putations found that had previously
been regarded as a series of different
comets was nothing more than the same
comet, and that this, the most magnificent
Of them all, came around regularly once
every seventy-fiye years. That was during
the latter part Of the eighteenth century,
and HALEY announced that this comet
would next appear in 1875. He never lived
to see II come. but his successors found
that his prediction came true
