COMET DISCOVERED
BY ASTRONOMERS, BUT THE EARTH IS
IN NO PRESENT DANGER.

New York, May eS.-A new
comet, which is flying through space
at the rate of many million miles a
minute, may be seen by the naked
eye just after sunset any evening on
the southwest horizon, according to
Edward Fairfax Naulty, an astrono-
mer, who has confirmed the discov-
cry of the comet on Monday by Prof.
VIM. R. Brooks, of Hobart college,
Geneva, n. Y Mr.. Naulty says
the new comet is speeding toward
the sun and should be visible for a
number of days yet Because of the
direction of the comets fight and
the relative position of the earth, its
head is not visible, but Mr.. Naulty
and Prof. Brooks say that its tail,
which is several million miles in
length, can be clearly detected. The
astronomers agree that there is no
danger of collision with the earth.

Speaking of the game of ball be-
tween the Ripley Athletic Club, of
Ripley, and the St, Mary's team on
May GO, we find. the following COM
pliment to Point Peasants popular
twirler, in the Pleasant County
News:
Our boys appeared to have it all
their own way up to the seventh
when few costly errors allowed the
visitors to score two runs, and tie
them in the ninth. Dashner about
this time settled down to pitching
and our boys couldn't find him at all.
His twirling was so fast and good
that he was generously applauded
by the st. Mary's rooters. Talk
about speed: nothing short of high
power Mauser has him beaten"
