EARTH ON MAY IS

Halley's comet is fast speeding tC-
ward the earth and in another week
will be visible with the aid of st.ong
glasses in the early morning in Tie
East Scientists all over the world
are deeply inte 'ested in the comets
coming and while the average run of
people know very little about such
things, they are preparing to enjoy
or be awed and hrilled by the gor-
geoIs spectacle witch will soCn Till the

On April 4th the comet may Re seen

On April 10Th it vii rise at 4 a. m.

On May 14th it rises at a. m.
On May Goth is sets at 7: As p. n.
On May 25th it sets at 1890 p. m.
On May 30th is sets al 10 p M.
After the first of June the comet will
be faint and will soon disappear out
of sight.
1t will probably be visible to The
naked eye by the middle of April,
but it will then be in the morning
sky and one must lCok for it in the
east about two hours before sunrise,
On May 14th the comet will pass di-

the earth This will be its closest ap-
proach to the earth and after this
date the comet will move rapidly
away from the earth and sun and VIII
soon be lost to view. On account of
its rapid motion it will be seen in the
west again in the evening from May
goth until the early part OF Jane. when
it will fade rapidly as it hastens on

WINTER TRAINS OFF
THEY WILL BE DISCONTINUED
BY TWO LINES ON NEXT
WEDNESDAY

Official announcement was made
yesterday by the passenger depart
ments of both the Seaboard Air Line
and the Atlantic Coast Line railways,
that the tourist service over respec-
tive roads between New York and
Florida would be discontinued for he
present season, with the depa cture of
trains northward en- April s. 1910.
The last southbound trips of the
Florida Limited, over the Se4hoard
and the New York and Florida Spec
ial, over the Atlantic Coast Line, Will
reach Jacksonville on Tuesday, April
5, leaving the next day for the farewell
northward journey of the season Of
1910.
1t was expected that the service
would be continued at least, until
April 10, if not later, but the early
Eastern season, together with the m
usual warm weather precailing at this
season throughout the country, have
been agencies to hurry tourists out
of Florida, and for this reason the sci
vice is W DG u1oCOuLlluSu O1l IilC u".t'
mentioned.
The taking off of these palatial
flyers marks the end of the winter
season for Florida. Strictly speaking
the tourist season is inaugurated when
these trains are placed in operation
early in January in each year, and
formally comes to close with their
discontinuance.
These flyers are great favorites
with the travelling public. In appoint
ment, equipment and service, they are
among the finest trains in the coIn-
try. They are supplied with every
luxury and convenience to make travel
pleasant. and during the season now
closing, they have been operated with
the greatest success; eclipsing all
previous seasons.
Even with the discOntinuance of
these trains, both the Seaboard and
Atlantic Coast Line still have excel
lent service to New York from Jack
sonville, as each operates daily three
trains in both directions, giving serv-
ice almost equal to that of the flyers.
This service is continued throughout
the year Each road, during the early
part of the present season, placed in
operation, in addition to regular ser
vice, additional trains to be operated
the year through. On the Atlantic
Coast Line. this train is designated as
the Palmetto Limited and on the Sea-
board it is known as the Flamingo
Limited.

TEDDY At LAST
SAYS GOODBYE
TO DEAR AFRICA

Ex-PREsIDENT is REGRETTED
BY THE AFRICANS
A Tour of Europe is Next on the

Naples and Party will then Proceed
to Rome

Alexandria, Egypt, March 30
FROM the deck of the steamer Prinz
Heinrich Col. Theodore Roosevelt to-
day waved final farewell to Africa,
There was mingling Of sadness and
gladness expressed on the counte-
nance of the former President as the
Dark Continent vanished from view
and the sturdy ocean liner sped away
over the blue Mediterranean toward
Naples. which will be reached Satur-
day. To the many government Of
ficials and others who gathered to say
goodbye to the distinguished Amer
lean he expressed himself as having
been ''dee-lighted with his African
experiences and declared he had had
bully time
With Mrs. Roosevelt, Kermit. Miss
Ethel and the other members of his
party, Col. Roosevelt will begin a tri-
Mmphae pilgrimage Through Eurone
next Saturday. Reaching Naples on
that day, the party will proceed on
Sunday to Rome where the former
President will be presented to both
the King and Pope.
The party will then journey north
ward through Austria Hungary, visit
ing Vienna and Budapest and then go
ing straight to Paris, getting in the
French metropolis aboat April 10Th.
The stay here will probably be limited
four days.
paVic Exin &,
Brussels. the capital of Belgium, roam
around awhile in Holland, and then
run up to Christiana, the government
al seat of Norway Berlin is next in
line and in the German capital the
Rocs cseyelts will spend two or three
days. While Col. Roosevelt has de-
clined an invitation to be received in
state by the German Emperor, it is
entirely probable that he will find
time to visit En- error William and
also to hob-Eob little with the fam
Gus scientists of the German city.
His Visit to England
Upon leaving Germany TIE pal ?
will CIR IS the Dover ST. ats to Eng
land and London will have three q,
four days of the R0oseyelts. It was + t
Col Roosevet's idea to be officially
received by King Edward, as this
would involve a visit to BncEfn CHAM
palace and delay his return to 1is Ia
tive land. But it is question as 10
whether the eX-president can get out
Of this. King Edward is one of Mr.
RooseVelt's most ardent admirers and
he has let it be known in no uncertain
manner to Ambassador Reid that he
wishes to heap honors upon the head
of the American, and That if it is at
all possible it shall be arranged.
The Roosevelt party has received
invitations enough for visits, speech
es, banquets, etc, to keep the head
of it busy for about two years.
But Col Roosevelt planned his re-
turn trip across Europe before he en-
tered the wilds of Africa and it is so
filled with engagements that it is
practically impossible for him to ac-
cept any more.
