COMETS TAIL
PRETTY LONG
Latest Observation Show That Its
Length Is 24,OOO,OOO Miles,
While Its Diameter Is About
One Million.

SAN JOSE, Cal. May 1T.-Direc-
tor Campbell. of Lick observatory
today gave out Il statement in sub
stance that Halleys comet in photo
graphs this morning had length of
tWenty-four million miles, the near
est point of the comet was eleven mil
lion miles from the earth Tuesday
it will be nearly 100000 miles away,
"Wednesday morning Il little over ,.
100000 miles and Wednesday even
ing the earth will be passing through
the tail. The present diameter of the
tail at the point where the earth will
pass through it is estimated at lit
tie over 100000 miles. The tw,
bodies have relative speed of about
43 miles per second.
1t IS known, however. that the tail
is 50 highly atteuuatcd that the most
perfect laboratory vacuum is ex-
tremely dense in comparison. 1t is
probable. he states. that both the
minute solid particles and isolated
gas molecules are present in the tail
1t seems to be conservative esti-
mate that there is not more than one
particle or molecule Of microscopic
size on an average to the cubic yard
The earth'S atmosphere will form a
perfect blanket against all possible
constituents of the tail. Continuinc
he declares. There is absolutely no
cause or excuse for anxiety as to the
injurious effects upon terrestrial life
animal or vegetable. The earth has
passed through the tails OF many
comets in past centuries and while
such an event Is of great scientific
interest, it is not attended with the
slightest danger"
Director Campbell regrets that the
moons brilliancy will interfere with
optical observations of the phcnom-
ena of passing through the tail, but
because of the probable tagging oi
he tail there is a chance we may be
in il the latter part of "Wednesday
night and that some evidence or its
presence may be seen in short inter.
walls between moon-sct and dawr
Thursday morning. Campbell say:
there will probably not be any moro
meteors visible Wednesday nigh
! than ON other nights.

BIG FLATFBOAT

The big fiat boat belonging to Form
ey Bros, which has been in building
below the water works for some time
past, will be launched this morning.
1t is forty-two by fourteen feet and
with one or two exceptions will be
the largest fiat afloat in the fleet of
coal dredges.
1t will be several days before the
river will be low enough to permit
the coal diggerS to resume work.
Meanwhile the owners Of the several
outfits are busy overhauling the mach
inery and fiat boats in anticipation of
a busy and profitable season.
The logical conclusion would be that
the sixteen foot flood brought down
great deal Of coal. 1T the same time
the possibility exists that the deposits
which the dredges were drawing on
so heavily prior to the rise may have
been carried away by the high water.
Whether as the result of the flood the
dredges will prove to be the gamers or
the losers remains to be seen.
