stumbling movement, in his bowed
head, in the depth OF his sombre eyes,
IN his nervous rubbing OF his swollen

timid shrinking from the public. the
great Jeffries showed that his defeat
had dealt him a vital blow and that
he never again would be the man he
was few hours ago.

OF PASSION PLAY
Oberammergau is Thronged
With Visitors for Opening
Performance.

Oberammergau, Upper Bavaria
May 13 The Passion Play season
opened Wednesday with a public re
heasal The perfected performance
will be given next Monday.
The picturesque little village slop
ing to the right bank of River Am
mer was sprinkled with snow wher
the surrounding mountains were
completely veile1 in white. To the
normal population of 150O has beer
added thousands of strangers, and il
is quite likely that the scenes will be
witnessed by a greater number chan
ever before.
The rehearsal moved smoothly and
made deep impression upon an au.
dience that filled the outdoor theater
to its limits.
Anton Lang again impersonates
Christ, but there have been a great
number of changes in other roles
since the production of 1900. The
chorus has been thoroughly reorgan-
lied and now consists of forty voices.
The work of the chorus is effective.

the comet will be on a level with

On the 18th it will be much lower

of great interest and Importance to
look for illumination of the sky. In
the early evening, just after sunset
the comets tail will be in the
east, but a few hours later II
will have passed over toward the
West. If, as is sometimes supposed
the tail is a hollow cone of light,
there will he two times at which the
sky in general is comparatively
brightly illuminated, separated by
an.interval while we are in the dark

observers on the opposite side of ouI

of seeing the sun through the comet;

portion of the United States is in

the comet enters upon the suns disk

probable that the ordinary observer,
even with a small telescope and dark
glasses, will lot be able to detect
even the slightest trace of the COM
cts passage. With powerful in.
struments the nucleus, if solid.
might be seen as a dark speck
against the sun, if it is over so miles
in diameter; but it is improbable
that it is anything like so large, for,
the whole amount of light reflected
from the comet, when remote from
the sun, is no more than single
mass 80 miles across would send us.
"Transits of comets across the sun
are very rare. The most remark
able previous instance is that of the
great comet of 1882, which, though
so bright that it could be seen close
to the sun in broad daylight with the
naked eye, vanished completely
when in front of the suns disk,
showing that it was practically
transparent.
ION the evening of the 10Th we
may perhaps already see the comets
tail in the evening sky, though its
head will set while the twilight is
still very strong. On the goth, how
ever, it will be visible till about 8 p.
M, on the 22nd till about 8 p. M, on
the 22nd till 1920, and on the 25th
and afterward until after IL p. m.
On the 21st the comets head will
be close to the star Geminorum; on
the 29rd about 10 degrees above
Procyon. and on the 25th near Hy-
drae. Fuller details will be given

foot for collecting and analyzing
comets tails. On May 18 the earth
passes through the tail of Mr.. Hal

and for some weeks thereafter. a
large chamber set up where the air
is relatively pure is to be used as an

will be continuously drawn through
it by means Of q suction pump, and
cometary dust present filtered out
by strainer. Whatever collection
is in the strainer will be analyzed.-
