most of the business men are accusing
him of being personal. 1t reminds

Disasters Follow Comets

ancient superstition that comets leave
disaster in their wake? Can there be
any connection between the two
comets which during this winter have
been unusually close to the earth and
the unprecedented weather conditions
which have given America an enor-
nous fall of snow and unusual cold,
while hot winds blow over northern
Europe. and France is struggling with
the most disastrous food in it's his
tory?
These are questions which thousands
of people have been asking during the
last few weeks, and historians ar.
agreed that whatever the scientific
facts may be, history has furnished
so remarkable number of parallels
between the approach of comets and
disastrous meteorological disturbances
that thew are puzzllng, at least
Comets come closer to the earth
than any other lar.e celestial bodies.
and ever since 1874 B. c, when two
great comets were observed in tn.
same year of Mithridate's birth, there
has been a universal tendency to con
meet them with human events. His.
torians of the time made much uf the
strange heavenly bodies as heralding
the birth of Mithrioates, but later, 80
more comets were seen. they began to
be feared as omens of disaster
EVERYTHING, from pestilence and fam
ines, to wars and destructive storms
were feared. and people lived in dread
during periods when comets were seen
in the heavens.
Accurate records of the appearance
of comets and the occurrence of
meteorological disturbances have been
kept only during the last century, hut
within that period a remal kable SER
les of disasters from flood, storm and
earthquakes have followed in almost
every instance the near appr zach of
the larger comets.
The record breaking closeness to
the earth of the great comet Of 1861
was the signal for appalling disturb
ance IN all parts of the world. This
comet was su near to the earth during
the summer that many astronomers
gave authority to the statement that
the earth was passing through it's
tail when the werd spectacle. of
phosphorescent auroral glare was
observed during the entire night in
various parts of Europe. Disastrous
storms in various parts of the world
preceded and followed this phenome-
non, and in one case 143 vessels were |
wrecked in the waters surrounding the
British Isles. In another storm ut
this time part of the Crystal palace
WAS blown down and the steeple of |
Chichester cathedral was wrecked. |
waile gigantic wa, es battered the
dykes of Holland and 40, QUO acres |
were flooded. There were disastrous |
earthquakes in Italy and later in
Greece, in which many lives were
lost.
Unusual phenomena accompanied |
the appearance of Biela's comet in
1889 ana IT'S appearance and departure
from its orbit in 1852 The closenees
of this comet s approach to the earth g
orbit caused much alarm among
astronomers nutil its final disappear
ance in 1852, and the disturbances
which accompanied its visits were
marked. In 1889 England and ire'ard
suffered one Ct II, n,s cesilc e
