THE SMOKE OF RAILROADS.


Where there is smoke there is
some fire; but also where there is
some fire, there generally is lot of
smoke. Paducah is just now envel-
oped in a cloud of railroad smoke.
The Burlington is coming sure. and
the Nashville, Chattanooga and st.
Louis will have terminals and equip
ment here that will put dwelling
houses in demand. Other projects
have not yet reached that degree of
certainty. which marks the pros
pective operations of the Hill inter-
ests. However, IL bridge is to be
built here. this crossing will become
important to those railroads, lying
within 100 miles of this place north
and south of the river. Railroads
must seek these bridges, Just as
wagon trails once led to the fords
and thus and thus gave cause for
settlements on the banks of streams.
The B. & o., the Frisco and the
New York CentrA lines have
branches just north of the Ohio. The
Tennessee Central manifests activi-
ties that gave rise to the rumor that
it would come to Paducah, also, to
connect with some northern outlet.
The suggestion is plausible, and We
may expect definite Information of a
similar movement on the part of a
road north of the river soon.
Some OF this talk may be BLUM to
force other lines into better working
agreements; but as to the Burlington
and the L. & N. all doubt has been
dissipated.

working ON t. q.

General interest has been aroused
by the reports concerning the extern
sion OF the Tennessee Central from
this city to Paducah. The latest in
formation connects the movement
with a plan of the Chicago. Burling-
ton & Quincy road to secure an air.
line from the northwest 20 the
Atlantic.
A party of civil engineers arrived
here this morning at 1920, their sur
veying paraphernalia, suit cases, ETC.,
having preceded them on last night S
train.
When asked concerning their plans
they were very chary about giving
out any Information. They stated,
however, that they would leave to-
morrow morning and run a tentative
line west, going by Cadiz. They said
further that II was very probable that
several such lines would have to be
laid out in order that the most feast
BILE might be selected and the perma-
nent location made. So cautious were
these gentlemen about giving out in
formation that they would not even
disclose THEN names.
The local officials OF the !. c. and
III. c. say they can make no state
ment as to the identity or purposes
of the engineers.
1t is certain that they are Tennes-
see Central employees 1t is also
known that teams and camp supplies
have been secured here, indicating
that the party will take the field for
an extended trip.
The superstition here is that the
party is headed for Paducah and that
the survey is The beginning of the
long looked for extension of the Ten
nessee Central to the Ohio river to
connect with the Burlington, which Is
also headed for that point.-Hop-

THE PUBLIC FORUM.
Coming of the Comet.

"If you live until next spring YOU
are going TO witness one Of the most
magnificent sights the heavens have
ever disclosed before our eyes" said
a we'll known member of the astro-
nomical force at the United States
naval observatory to the correspond
ent of the Sun. "Halley's comet
comes only once I'm a lifetime. and
many persons are born. live and die
without catching a glimpse of. its
marvellous dash OF fire across the
skies. II was last seen In 1895, and
few persons now alive can say they
ever witnessed it,"
The astronomical world is now on
the watch, and huge rerracting and
rejecting telescopes are trained upon
the heavens from many points on
the earth in a common effort to To-
cate the comet, which is approaching
the earth at a terrific rate. There Is
friendly rivalry to see which will
be the first TO pick up the comet with
their mirrors.
The comet in its full refulgenee is
not due until 1910, but by spring II
will probably be near enough to be
visible by the naked eye. In the past
1t has spanned the heavens almost
from horizon TO horizon, covering as
much as 100 degrees of celestial ter
ritory. and standing out like a great
living thing of fire. II Is now some
whore of in space. but not yet WISH
bic to astronomers. They confidently
expect some one to pick II up before
the end of 1909, and after that IL
will increase in splendor and size
until it reaches its nearest approach
to the earth. some time next spring,
after which 1t will disappear, not to
be seen again in 10 years.
''Halley's comet has been visiting
the vicinity OF the earth ever since
500 or 600 years before Christ" said
the astronomer. HALEY was an Eng
lishman. whose name was given to
the comet because he was the first to
announce that this particular comet
came near the earth at regular
periods once every IS years. He went
over the records. and by a series OF
found that what had
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 rs years. That was during the
latter part of the eighteenth century.
and HALEY announced that this
comet would next appear in 1895.
He never lived to see II. but his cue
eessors found that his prediction
came true.
THE comets 75-year journey wild
bring 1t toward us near enough for II
to be seen early in 1910. II has
never before been photographed, be-
cause photography was invened after
1895.
''The comet will first be picked I'D
OF in space by some
Photographic telescope. We think we
know just about where the comet
will make its debut, but can't yet
zee II. The moment II is found the
news will be flashed around the
world.
There Will be no trouble seeing IL |
With the naked eye. II will illumi- |
nate the heavens. II will make a |
tremendous splash OF IRE. After Il
once comes and goes 1t will shoot
away from the earth. going as far
away as Neptune, the most distant Of
he planets, passing all of the other
planets en- route, including Uranus.
