Comet
Will Be VisabIG In A Very
Few Days

Have you seen Halley's comet yet?
very few days now. 1t is gradually
drawing closer to the earth SO it will
be visible to every person in the great
state of Ohio. That is, it appears
to be gradually coming closer to us,
but in reality it is approaching the
earth at a rate of speed almost i'm
possible to believe. 1t is coming mil
lions of miles closer each day and
will leave us in much the same man
ner in which it approaches.
1t has been visible through smoked
or colored glasses at different times
within the past few days, 1t has only
remained short time at night in the
sky then disappeared not to be seen
again for the next two or three days
unless caught at an opportune time.
The prophecy of the coming of this
wonderful object which is attracting
the attention not only of the scientific
world but also the people who are not
interested in comets, planets or other
things connected with the sky is be-
ing fulfilled
Much controversy has resulted over
the striking of the earth by the tail of
the heavenly body as it passes on its
wild fight through space. Astrono-
mers say it will not do any damage
and people have been putting much
faith in their predictions. 1t remains
to be seen whether it will cause any
trouble. Weather prophets say the
conditions caused in May and June
when this thing occurs will be extra
ordinary. Some say the comet may
bring a terrible snow storm, others ar
que it may bring a great hail storm
and still others mixed up in the con.
troversy say it will cause terrible
floods in this country. OF course the
weather prophets have to get in on
the discussion to keep before the pub
lie in the proper manner. 1t is always
that way.
Still it is we'll known that these
men have made a study of the skies to
a certain extent and realize that the
movement of planets has considerable
to do with the brands of weather
handed to us right along.
1t is a nice thing to witness such a
glorious sight as a great comet like
Halley's sweeping through the sky on
a good clear night, and everybody is
anXiously waiting the time when the
comet will make its appearance so it
can be plainly seen by the naked eye.

JEFFRIES WORKS
 AT LIVELY GAIT

Ben Lomond, Cal, April 26.--James J. Jeffries made up for his vacation yes- terday by working with redoubled en- ergy today. He said he felt in work ing mood and allowed himself little let up. He worked on all the in- door strength building devices and put ginger into his task.
 A six-round boxing bout with Sam Berger was planned for the afternoon but Jeffries' work this morning was so warming that his trainers did not want to heat his blood any more and the bout was postponed. The skin trouble on Jeffres' back is disappear ing and his trainers expect to erad- icate it in two days more.
 Jefries spent the afternoon hours working with the laborers on the river dam, which sprung a leak Saturday. Until the leak is stopped boating and swimming are impossible and as these are among the pugilists favorite pas times he will put in much of his time helping at the dam,

 There is good man." said Moley. ''He coverhs lot of ground about third, and if I wanted man in that position l would certainly get him if coud.''
 Which led Big Ed to say:
 Sure, Perry is the goods at that point. He played fine game in Montgomery, and I have never seen a more popular fellow with the fans. l am surprised that Chattanooga has not given him more of show this spring. see that he s playing now, however"
