The making of arrangements by
the American Astronomical society to
take an extensive series of photos
of Halleys comet, is a reminder of
the return of a strange visitant that
used to terrify people almost out of
their wits. Before the orbits Of
comets were calculated and their re-
turn could be predicted with scien-
tihc accuracy they Wsfe supposed to
be signs of approaching disaster or
divine displeasure.
On one occasion the appearance OF
comet and the victories of the Turk
over the Christian were generally re-
garded as having some connection,
and the Pope hurled maledictions at
both the comet and the infdels. odd
~ enough the comet vanished soon
after the Turks were defeated. So
Christiandom was sure it had guess
ed it right.
The Scientific American gives an
account of the appearance at Hal
ley's comet which have been traced
back 20 centuries, since its period
was determined. Edmund HALEY. an
English astronomer and mathemati-
clan, calculated the comets orbit in
1852 and predicted its return in
1853. His prediction was verified,
and the comet has appeared once
since then. 1t is due about every
rs years.
It will soon become visible, and
travelling at the rate of 100000
miles a day, it will come within 20
million miles of the earth in June,
1910. Then it viii grow fainter
disappearing in 1911, not to be see-
again by the people Of this earth un-
til 1886.

SUCCESSFUL YEAR FOR CHURCH
Baptist Church of This City Closes a
Successful Year.

The First Baptist Church of Noun
tain Home has made another year of
history, the second of the present
pastorate.
Year before last the church closed
her years work with an Indebtedness
Of $500. The present year closes
with all bills paid and also the detic-
iency Of last year.
The past year has been one of sue
cess against large odds. All lines of
work have prospered. The Young
Peoples Union has raised and ex-
pended for benevolences and home
expenses S262.50. They also won
the Idaho State Banner over all I'm
ions in the state for largest gifts to
missions, greatest number pursuing
Bible Study Courses, etc. Not alone
have the young people won honors in
the state, but international recog-
milton. They were awarded the great
international Missionary Conquest
Banner over all unions in Canada
and the U. S. for work in missionary
study This department of the work
is a hive of industry Fifty-fye have
signed for the study courses for the
coming year.
The Ladies' aid raised s344.2S foi
all her various activities. The Wo-
mems Missionary circle gave $4,000
to missions. The church Itself
expended s2O20.75 in loca'
expenses and missions The church
and all her auxiliaries received and
expended from all sources for all pur
poses s274S.2S. This is the largest
sum ever used in one year in the his
tory Of the church and the largesi
per capita of any church in the State
if not in the West.
An addition has been built to the
parsonage and all paid for. There
was long delay in the summer il
getting changes made in the plans o
the new church building. A loan
has been made and the work will g
on to the point where the house cal
be used.
There have been numerous bap
tisms during the year and the churcl
has about Is members.
The plan for the finances of tn
church is ideal A budget is main
tanned and to this part is due the fac
that the church has no debt. At tn
first Of each year all the expenses ant
missions are estimated and subscrip
tions taken to make up the entir
budget Every one who contribute
has part in every expense and activ
ity Of the church. The eombine
budget for the coming year is nearl
all subscribed
Z The church has grave problem

TO MEET
BILLY LEARY sign
ARTICLES TO-DAY

Cyclone Kelly is again becoming ac-
tive in the lighting game. Kelly knows
a good man when he witnesses his
work. and believes that Kid Black, the
local 135-pound boy who has been act
ing as sparring partner of Patsy Kline,
has more than a good chance with all
of the fast ones at his weight. Black
has fought over 200 battles, and among
those who have opposed him in the
squared circle are many of the best
known stars of the pugilistic firma-
ment.
Kelly is to meet Robert J. Murphy, man
anxious to arrange a match for Black
who recently put the knockout bug on
Mickey Cannon. Bert Reyes or any of
the good lightweights., Black is a shifty
boxer and a hard puicher. He has been
training faithfully for some time, and
Kelly believes that he can go the route
with a majority of the celebrities who
have been doing nothing but corraling
money.
Kelly also has a butcher boy in tow who
promises to make 1t interesting for any
of the light heavies. His name is Tommy
Holey, and after he has learned some of
the fine points of the game he may seek a
be remarkably fast for a big fellow, and
has a punch in either hand. Many good
fighting critics believe that Holey is sure
to give a good account OF himself in the
padded circle. Holey Is a resident of the
Roseville section.

FOOTBALL CLASH

Westerners Will "Stand Pat"

CHICAGO, March 22.-The probabil-
ity of a clash between the East and
the West Is strong when the repre-
sentatives of the two sections gather
at the annual meeting of the football
rules committee to be held next Fri
day and Saturday in New York. Thai
the West is satisfied with the football
rules as they stand now and will
stand pat" is the opinion expressed
by Coach A. A.. Stage, of the Univer-
sity of Chicago, who is a member Of
the "gridiron congress-
According to information which has
come to the Maroon director the East
appears to be moved by the reform
spirit. and 1t is understood several
delegates from The Atlantic coast sec
ton will propose important amend
ments to the rules. If such is the case
it is likely a long battle involving a
search for information from an the
countless colleges and higher institu-
lions of learning throughout the coun-
try will ensue.

In comparison with these results,

BY BERT DODGE.

II unfortunate misunderstanding IN
the Newark League, whereby the Park
A. a. and ~I,oseville bowlers have be-
come involved In Il dispute, is likely 10
ne referred to the league delegates by
tho members Of the executive commit
Tee.
lnaslnuch as two of the members are
interested belonging, respectively, t.
the Park. Athletic Association and the
ticsevilie Athletic Association, they did
not feel like making a decision. and the
third member, Milton j. Webster. of the
Bslleville Club. is not desirous of hand
Ing dow a decision himself. Therefore.
the clubs will be asked. probably. to
send delegates to a meeting to be called
scon by the executive committee.
II was learned yesterday that the ma
gority of the members of tho executive
committee do not feel that the Parks
nave a valid claim to the three games
which they have asked to have awarded
TO them by forfeit, because the Rose
Nllies did not appear to roll on "a date
which the captain Of the Park A. a
team, Al Baker, says was mutually
agreed TO by himself and the captain OF
the Roseville cam.
The captain cf the Rosevillc team,
DICK Lrler, says that he did not under
Stalld that he had any formal agree
mcnt with Baker to roll off the match
(which was a postponed one) on the
night which Baker says was determined
upon,
Lfler declares that when Baker sug-
aested the date. he replied that he could
not determine for certain whether on
not all the members Of the Rosevillt
team could roll or not, and that the
matter wa left open. He says hat II.
notified Captain Baker by letter TO thu
effeet that the Rosevilles could NOT
howl.
As TO a telephone message which Captain
Baker declares he sent to Erler's office dur

tnat the message was given to him In such
