Ia marvellous and endless expanse OF
soft light or gases) ourving grace
fully above it and extending far off
into the distant horizon. this great
thing of fire and light may be seen
1t Is sight marvellous to behold
1t is a sight such as one can hardly
hope to witness more than once in a
| lifetime.
For the next morning or two, II
the Sky is clear, the best time to see
the comet will be between $3.50 and
4. Soon, as has been detailed in
these columns previously. the comet
will be seen no longer in the morn
ing sky, but will appear in the even
ing sky for a number of nights, and
then, early in June. will pass from
the sight of earth to come again no
more until more than two generations
of men have been born on earth.
Many solemn and startling
thoughts enter the mind of the man
or woman who. in the silent watches
of the night. gazes upon this mighty
monarch of the skies, standing out in
striking and terrible individuality
with the countless stars appearing as
but atoms of light when compared
with, this fiery visitor, this regular
and all-powerful intruder.
As one looks upon the blazing
wanderer. who through the ages has
sped unerringly, tirelessly, incessant-
ly. around the boundless confines of
the universe. the smallness of man
and the shortness of human life
strikes one most forcibly. Truly, in
the presence of one of these mighty
agencies of nature, one must ex-
| claim, How short is human lifei
how Insignificant is mani"
That brilliant visitor to the starry
armament now chasing the sun, has
thrown his radiance upon the earth
once every 10 years, perhaps. since
time hegan-perhaps beforehand
each time, as IT appears. 1t looks up-
on an earth from which millions have
been taken by Death, on which king
| doms have risen and have fallen,
since his previous visit. Yet he comes
and he goes, Indifferent to time, in
different to life.
Early in June he leaves the sight
of earth and its inhabitants, and
when he comes again very few of
those now on earth will gaze upon
his fiery beauty.
Truly Halley's comet is an inspira-
tion of numberless thoughts. and,
among these thoughts, there stands
out his one: What better proof can
mankind have that there is an All
Powerful, Everlasting Being control
ing the destinies of earth and the
cycles of time, than the proof con-
talned in the presence, the appear
ance and the regular visits of Hal
ley's comet. w.

scourge of the Swiss.
From the Alpine Path

The prevalence in Switzerland of goitre
that distressing disease which is caused
by drinking snow water. Is graphically
shown by the striking figures recently
issued by the federal military depart
ment, setting forth the number OF men
who are lost to the country, from the
military service point of view, owing to
this affiiction alone.
It has been statistically proved that an
average number Of from 200 to $500
men are each year rejected for service
in the army owing to the presence Of
xoitre in some degree; and the compilers
Of the report demonstrate how quickly,
at this rate of rejection, the services of
an entire division and even of an army
corps are lost.
The cantons of Valais and Grisons be-
ing the most mountainous parts of
Switzerland, are the districts of the coun-
try in which the complaint Is most COM
mon; but people in other parts are
also affected to distressing extent.
So serious has the scourge become dur
ing recent years, with a tendency to in
crease rather than to decrease. that a
commission is to be appointed by the fed
eral government to study and report upon
the disease. in order that preventive
measures may be adopted and that
serious campaign against the malady
may be initiated.

The witness said Mrs. Hendrick told
her of firing a shot from a revolver at
her husband after one of their disputes.
The vile asserted that she had nearly
scared the doctor to DEATH
The testimony of Mrs. Hendrick, ST.,

seph Hendrick. the physicians brother,
plaintiff and her husband. Hendrick de-
clared that quarrels between the newly
welded couple often disturbed his slum-
bers.
Mrs. Hendrick Jealous.
Mrs. Ellen Lewis Of No. 2J7 Gold street
Brooklyn, said that Mrs. Hendrick had
often talked with her in regard to her
unhappy married life. She said Mrs. Hen

tor.
The elaboration of the jurors occu-
pied just three hours and half. When

She uttered FAINT Obi and swooned
She was assisted from the room by her
