HALEY Comet NearS Earth.

Halley's comet, which has an
extraordinary history in classical
and astronomical literature and
which was last seen in 1885, is.
according to the astronomers. now
within the orbitofthe planetJupiter
and is coming into the orbit of the
earth at the rate of a million miles
a day.
The perihelion passage of the
comet in the sky will mark the
most important astronomical event
of the year 19O9-19fO. 1t will

NO NEW LIQUOR LEGISLATION.

Messages from Richmond. based
upon statements from the Demo
cratic leaders Of the State. indicate
thatthere will be noncw liquorleqis-
lation in Virginia for the next two
years, except in 50 far as court
decisions have made changes i'm the

COUEIER'S predictions during the

GENTLY powerful o. prevent him

hc would do further the advance
ment of the Statewide prohibition
plan.
Probably the Strangest political
Capitalization of the century in this
State was to be seen in the recent
canvass. The prohibitiouists be-
heved that Judge Mann would use
his power as Governor to advance
their ideas, and they supported
him. The BIG liquor men had
assurances from the machine"
leaders that they were powerful
enough to prevent Judge Mann
from doing anything to hurt them.
and they supported him.
As we remarked in June. some
body will get fooled.
1t now looks as though the State
wide prohibitionists were the
goats"
just what their next move will
be, only time can tell; but if they
really believed the Judge was their
savior, in would be Interesting to
know Just what they think now.
But of one thing rest assured.
there will be no new or radical
liquor legislation during the next
two years.

WINGS THAT WERE FINS.

Evidence That Penguin's Pinions Were

Ornithological puzzles are the pen-
gums, with their curiously shaped
wings and odd. unbirdlike. upright car
riage. The peculiarities OF their wings
suggest that the penguins are descend
ants OF birds which used their wings
rather than legs in the pursuit OF prey
under water. and as the struggle in
tensifed between the competing indi-
viduals the most expert at this sort OF
swimming would get the most food
and GUST less successful rivals. The
winners gained advantage over their
neighbors in proportion as their wings

In all other birds the feathers. though

HOME SEEKERS RUSH
 FOR INDIAN LANDS
IN THE SPOKANE. COUER D ALENE AND FLATHEAD
 RESERVATION
There Will be 100 Applicants For
 Each Homestead.

Sponkane, July 15.-At the close of the first day of registration for the Spokane( Couer d' Alene and Flathead reservation lands. it is esti- mated that 28,OOO applications had been filed. Of these. 10000 are at Spokane; 10000 at Couer d Alene; 4.OOO at Missoula; and 4,OGO at Kalis- pei
 It is possible that the first days registration is heavier that it will be on any one of the succeeding nine teen days, as many persons believed that some advantage might come from being first.
 In all cities where the filings are taken, the hotels werec rowded to overflowing. The applicants appear to be an excellent class of people a majority from the east looking like well-tO-dO farmers or sons of farm CTS. Thousands of the land filers are from eastern points and the railroads report many thousands yet coming.
 There vii be not less than 800, 900 applications, while the aggregate of homesteads on the three reservations are less than 3,00O0.

.OppOseiD Vain Provision For
 Presidents Travelling Funds A DEFICIT IS EXPLAINED
If the Department of Jus tice Had Been Less Lav- ish Toward F. J. Heney It Would Not Now Be Ask
 ing Congress For Money.

Washington, July 15.-After lively debate the democrats in the house failed today in their efforts to have the provision brought in by Mir. law ney appropriating S25,O00 for President ITaft's travelling expenses, stricken out of the urgent deficinecy bill The lat ter measure will be the subject of fur ther discussion tomorrow.
 Leaders on the democrat side are unsparing in their charges of bad faith because the house at the last session. pledged itself ont to make any addi- tional allowances to the president.
 In attacking the paragraph provid- ing for the travelling expenses of the president, Mir. Rainey said it was un- derstood that when the presidents sal ary was increased to $15.00O that there would be no other allowances. The president was also criticised for insist ing on automobiles at a cost of $12,000 when horses and carriages were avail able.
 MT Clark remarked that neither Lincoln. Garfield. nor Mckinley was assassinated in the White hose, or on the White House grounds. They were all. he said, attacked while away from the official home.
 MT Hull, of Iowa, said it would be humiliating not only to the president but to the nation. for towns and mu- nicipalities to pass the hat before he could pay them a visit The real req son for the appropriation. volunteered MT. Rainey was to permit the prcsi dent to take two months trip. in or der to "boost7 the cause of the league of republican clubs. The president. he said. had invited John Hays Hammond the president of the league. to accom- pany him to make speeches cnroute to the Pacific coast.
 A motion by Mr. Bowers to strike out the provision, was voted down by a strict party vote of 107 to 15O.
 Mir Murphy. republican. of Missouri, in opposing the s25,o0o item covering a deficiency in the office of the attor- ney general, said he believed this ought to be investigated by special committee.
 "I do not believe there would have been any deficiency if the office had not paid Francis J. Heney some $10.OO0 out Of the treasury, portion of which do not think he ever earned" said MT. Murphy
 If the statement is true, he was paid after he had resigned for a cer- tain easel believe it was the United States vs. Finger Hermann, some $500O or $10OOO mere than he was en- titled to. and if my information is cor rect that he has been paid some $4I,- 800 out of the treasury since he has been in the employ of the state Of Cal ifornia, and as I have been informed. against the constitution of the state of California"
 The house adjourned at 5:22 pm.

THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE

Washington, July 15.-Members Of the house conference committee de- clined to accept the senate amend ments to the cotton schedule when that subject was taken up. Those amendments consist chiefly of changes from ad valorem to specific duties for the purpose of carrying out the original intention of the Dingley rates which the senate conferees assert had been pulled down by a misinterpreta- ton of the Dingley law.
 It developed that it would be eX- tremely difficult to reach an agree ment on the numerous paragraphs changing the rates on lead products, which comprise virtually all the paint schedules. and numerous other articles of manufacture. The senate conferees declared that they could not accept the house rates on thOse items.
 Senator Aldrich said the senate con ferees must guard the interests of the lead producing states. On the other hand, Mir. Payne pointed out that the great agricultural interests had de- manded cheaper paints and he said that he would be compelled to insist upon the house provisions. The con- ferees are split and a prolonged con- test is anticipated.

SAN DIEGO PROTESTS AGAINST RACING SCHEME
TO MAKE TIA JUANA A RAGING
 CENTER
State Department Lays the Matter
 Before the Mexican Government

Washington, July 15.-The conces- sion recently granted by the Mexican government to a company Of hors,. race promoters in California, for the establishment of a race course at Tia Juana, Lower California, will probably be rescinded. The people Of San Diego have protested in strong terms. The petitions went to the state department with the result that the department recently communicated with President Diaz, through the American ambassador.
 It was pointed cut that the cu- couragement of horse racing at Tia Juana, which had become outlawed in California. would be an offense in the eyes of the people of that state.
 It was stated that the United States did not question Mexico's right to grant the concession, but in view of the universal protest of California. it was hoped that the Mexican govern ment would rescind the concession. No response has yet been received
