Cheer For The Man VINO Is Broke

The lives of the very wealthy are at
best wcarisome and fraught with
worries and cares which those in
humber circumstances know not of.
The burden of great wealth under
mines the strongest constitution in its
care and responsibility. However, the
ambition for honest requirement of
riches is Il lauGablc one and seems to be
inherent with most men who possess
red blood in their veins. But il is the
chase and not the quarry that makes
the game worth while. In other words,
at isn't the money and it isn't the
fame,
It's the lure, the lure Of the game"
that keeps humanity %etcrnally pcgging
away for the almighty dollar and the
comforts It may bring. However, the
following statement coming from An

condition of the millionaire it may act

Record on Hnlle,.s Comet

Andrew c. ID. CromInelin i'll an ar
ticle On THE Expected Return of Hal
lcys Comet. in Science Progress lion.
donlgives an interesting account of the
early observations of this comet which
appears at intervals of about a. years.
The first definite record of this comet is
from China where it Was observed and
fully described i'll IL b. c. The various
appearances from this time mp to that
of 1878 We're more fully and accurately
described in Cnina than in Europe.
Its path through the consultations was
described i'll the Chinese records be-
canse they Imagined that the ter
r~e7trial kingdoms had their counter
parts i'll the sky. and that comets were
ambassadors between them indicating
corresponding relation between the
kingdoms on earth. 50 that valuable
political information was to be gained
from this study OF the heavens.
In The west the appearance of a comet
was 4 bad omen and hence recorded.
bat its path was not an important
feature. Josephus mentions the APP
pearance OF a comet several months be-
fore the fall Of Jerusalem. This was
probably Halley's comet which appear
ell in 65 \. d. The death Of Emperor
Macrinus in Pts \ d WAS also proceed
eli by a comet which was probably
Halley's.

SOCCER FOOT BALL.
Coach Williams Says It Is Here 60
Stay-Thursday's Game.

The announcement that soccer foot Dali
will be introduced at Georgetown Uni
versity Thanksgiving day has created in
terest The game will be played by two
as well balanced organizations as could
be found in this city. For several months
the players have been practicing.
Thomas B. Williams. formerly q men,
Der Of the famous Caledonian team OF
England, will take charge of the soccer
forces at Georgetown.
Soccer is the only legitimate successor
to foot ball." Mr.. Williams says. 1t
has all of its advantages and none OF its
disadvantages. The danger OF serious ac-
cident is entirely eliminated.
In soccer foot ball mass plays and
tackling are eliminated. 1t is foot ball
pure and simple, and requires head work
Of a high degree. 1t Is even more excit-
ing than the present Of form Of foot ball.
The great center of interest In any ball
game is the position or activity OF the
ball How many times have spectators
at a modern foot ball game sat patiently
for many minutes while the ball, invisible
to the eve, moved a few feet. The best
the public gets is a conglomeration OF
humanity.
In the game to be played Thanksgiv-
ing day the spectators will see a particu-
larly fast game of ball. Men Of strength
of BODY and 1.-the Of limb will compete
between the goal posts. 1t Is thinking
game for the individual player. for once
the game Is started concerted play is out
of the question. The captain directs the
style of play previous to the opening OF
the contest. Soccer requires both speed
and strength.
