COMETS TAIL HERE IN MAY
Frsnoh savants cay Gases Will Thsn
Reach Earth's Atmosphere
Mo Danger.

Paris.-Erench savants. while deny
ing that there Il any danger OF tho
worlds extinction, view with Intense
interest the APPROACH of Halley's COM
ct. which. after rs years absence. is
coming toward the earth at the rate
Of $4,000 miles an hour. According
to the calculations the gases OF the
comets tail will reach the eartns
atmosphere May 10 next.
Benjamin Bsillaud, director OF tne
Paris observatory. takes an optimistic
view of the conditions likely 70 arise.
He says: scientifically. the observa-
lions Of the passage Of the Haley
comet will be interesting and most
valuable. Since 1895. when this com
ct was last seen by the Astronomer
Arago, instruments for making obser
vations have been greatly perfected
We shall now endeavor to explain Ger
tain electric and magnetic conditions
which undoubtedly will be produced
in the terrestrial atmosphere. VIZ
shall probably see showers OF failing
stars In our heavens and other me
te6ric phenomena"
When asked II these would include
danger to life ON earth the professor
smiled and replied: Hardly. IT II
quite true that the gas Of the comet
now known to be cyanogen. II mixet
with our air would produce mos
dangerous poison. but in the comet
tail the gas Is 30 extremely rarine'
that no danger Is possible. The cart

HAD MANIA FOR SUICIDE.

An extraordinary series Of at
tempts to end his own life was re-
vealed at London (Eng.) sessions
one day lately, when an ex-soldier
named George Williams, 10, was
charged with attempting suicide. He
was found in a street at Battersea
with handkerchief tied tightly
round his neck, and upon recovering
consciousness declared he knew
nothing of the affair. He added:
"When in the army 1 was once
found with my belt tied around my
neck, and another time l inhaled
gas. l next fastened a chain round
my neck, and later / tried to starve
myself. l do not remember doing
these things, but l have been told of
them" Williams was remanded for
medical observation.

tual Life Insurance company and on
Monday last w. II. Smith of Ionia,
agent for the company, paid TO the
widow, Mary l.. Wilson, check for
$5,OS4, being the amount due on his
policy. Considering the fact that only
short time has elapsed since Mr.. Will
sons death, the company seems very
prompt in its settlement of claims. Mr..
Wilson had previously drawn quite a
sum from the same company.

"THE entire railroad system con-
trolled by James j. Hill has just issued
an anti-drinking order which will not
be relished by the liquor men along the
thousands of miles which the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific lines
traverse. The order reads as follows
1--WE do not wish TO have in our employ
men who drink liquor. Donot employ
drinking men. If men now working
under you drink, tell them that they
must stop or make way for men who
will not drink" The order is a result
of the investigation of a number OF
mishaps on these roads, where II has
been discovered that the loss of property
life and limb has been the result Of
drinking by employees"

Certain devotees in India, in their
fanatical zeal, practically travel
from place to place on their stom-
achs Their method Of progression
is rather peculiar. Throwing them
selves forward full length on the
ground, they make mark with their
hands as far in front of them as they
can reach. Then, springing up, they
nut their toes to the mark and re-
peat the process. Some of these de-
voices travel halfway across the In
liam continent in this extraordinary
fashion.-Wide World Magazine.
