HALEY COMET EVER
OBJECT Of ALARM
APPROACH OF WANDERER NEVER
HAS FAILED AZ SEND EARTH
JEWELLERS INTO PANIC.

Halley's comet, now in telescope
view after an absence OF three-quarters
of a century, will soon be visible to
the naked eye.
This is the greatest of all comets.
To see it is the privilege of a long
lifetime. 1t will be a splendid object
on the night sky, as awe-inspiring as
it is rare.
All the world has trembled at the
vision and the supposed menace of this
great visitor from the regions beyond
the most remote of the known planets
Not only once has the universal fear
been aroused but, every seventy-tive
years since history, as we know it to-
day. was first written, has the comet
thrown all races and all nations into
alarm.
COMETS ALWAYS ALARM.
There are comets of many grades Of
seeming Importance, but Halley's CO.
met, the greatest of them all coming
at long intervals, is the one that has
at every visit thrown humanity into
CONSERVATION.
Even at the visit preceding the pres
emit one, the comet in 1885 had it's old
historical effect on the public mind.
Millions of beholders were nearly
frightened to death. Even the astrono-
mers in 1885 were not sure that the
comet meant no great danger to the
earth, for although they viewed it with
no supernatural ideas of it's character,
there was fear tnaJ a collision between
the earth and the comet would prove
disastrous to the comparatively tiny
planet on which we live.
That the earth would become mixed
up with the vost, developing tail of the
comet, seemed exceedingly probable.
AFFIRMATION is FEARED.
Earnest scientists thought that al
though the planet might not be SER
iously disturbed in it's own course, the
fragile human beings would probably
be killed by asphyxiation in the comet
gases or by some electrical or mag
lnetic influence resulting from the con-
tact.
There is no possibility of danger
from the comet The astronomers know
this now, as well as they knew any
thing else about the travellers through
solar space. The earth cannot hit the
nucleus of the comet, Even if it pass
fright through the tail-in olden days
the streaming hair of the demon
1t twill not be in any degree affected.
The one great result of this present
approach of the comet will be the ac-
QUESTION Of new and presumably i'm
pOrtant knowledge on the subject OF
lcomets in general. Modern instruments,
specially in photography, give the as
tronomers an advantage never before

TAIL AWAY FROM SUN.
Comets are among the most inter-
esting mysteries of asst. onomy, though
che observation histories of all the
strange visitors, together with exact.
ness as to time and orbit, are vel
known.
One of the things that long puzzled
astronomers was the circumstance thai
the tail always pointed away from the
sun. Halleys comet, for instance
would sweep in from outer space, The
outer space beyond Neptune, and woulc
carry its tail behind (which seemed
the orderly and proper thing to do.

FOR A CENTRAL BANK.

Senator Aldrlch In an address deliv-
cred recently in Chicago on the work
Of the national monetary commission,
expressed the opinion that an efficient
organization Of the credit banking
system OF the country il much more
important than the question OF note
issue. He rather favored a central
bank issue and expressed the belief that
branch banking as It exists IN other
countries is not possible here. He was
especially in favor OF keeping partisan
politics out OF banking, The labors
OF the commission, he said. are so great
that they win not be completed this
winter, but il win probably make a
report at the beginning OF the third
session Of the present Congress Mean
while IL win welcome the advice and
assistance OF the business men Of the

such an institution. The United states
has no central bank. and the merchants

Miss Eckstein recently attended a

20 be- sent 20 the Hague convention.
IN this memorial Il is suggested. THAT
