ENGLAND'S COUNTRY HOMES.
Essentially n Home-Ioving Nation,

Two familiar types Of architecture come

Elizabethan and the Queen Anne Until
the reigns of Elizabeth and Anne no def
mite school of country house architec-
ture seems to have fiourished, but with
the coming OF lingo Jones, an architect
who is said to have had for his patron
the Earl OF Arundel, England apparently
escaped from a hybrid type of building
that might have proved her artistic IN
doing.
In America, the Elizabethan dwelling
has been widely popular, perhaps because
of its never falling harmony with a sub
urban environment. combined with an
artistic loneliness that is difficult to excel

The architecture Of Queen Anne's period.
while practically as well known to-day as

ishes. and can not be upheld in any seri-
Gus comparison of English country
houses. The English are so essentially a

RIDICULES FEARS OF COMET
Astronomer Recalls Precedent Of
Visitor in 1851.
Only Inconvenience Was Curious
HaEe-Appearance of Comet De-
cfded Battle Os Hastings.

Cambridge March 19-Sir Robert Ball.
the astronomer. in an address on HaHey's
comet delivered at Cambridge University
yesterday. again referred TO the need
less fear with which the approach of the
comet was viewed by a good many peo-
pie.
There was no cause for anxiety at all
he said. There was just as much chance
of a collision between the nucleus Of the
comet and the earth as there was Of the
Empire State Express from New York TO
Chicago running down the night mail
from London to Edinburgh.
Those who we're alive in 1861 spent a
couple of hours In the tail of the comet,
and none was any the worse for it. The
greatest inconvenience he had heard OF
was caused to a clergyman who. al
though Il was a midsummer evening,
was compelled by the curious haze that
prevailed TO light candles in his church
in order that he might preach.
The comet might truly be called the
specter Of the skies. for the greatest part
of its bulk was of the intangible and
transparent material that one associated
with ghosts. The comet appeared at the
critical moment of the battle of Hastings.
and but for its advent and the disheart-
ening effect that it had on the English
troops the Norman conquest might never
have been achieved.
The earth would pass through the tail
of the comet about May IS and afterward
the comet would appear as a new evening
star

Berlin, March I9-The discussion
whether the canals on Mars are really

the Mars canals are too long 10 be ex-
planned as superficial assures. The long
est terrestrial earthquake crevice is only
375 miles long. whereas the Marian canal
known as Prison has calculated length

that he has no doubt that the west coast

north and south between africa, Chile.
and the Straits of Magellan. is nothing
but gigantic chasm equaIing In length
the Prison canal on Mars.
Other great crevices In the earth's

they are not known because they may
be situated in regions inaccessible so
far to scientific research, or even at the
bottom of the ocean. The greater length
Of the Mars clefts Arrhenius explains by
saying that Mars is at further stage
