THE COMET Is NOT HALLEY's

The comet We nave seen IN the west
for the last week is not HALEY 5, says
the Astronomer at Flagstaff. lie tells
US that the body now visible is a new
arrival from space.
Flagstaff, Ariz., Jan. 23.-The lum.
nous body nov visible to observers
in various parts OF the country Is u
new comet. IL is known as Comet A
Of 1910"
II closely resembles the great comet
of lss2.
The new celestial body was reported
by DR.. a. I. Inncs of the observatory
Of johannesburg, South Africa, on Jan.
uary 10.
Analysis of the Photographic
observations made here shows that the
new body differs greatly from comets
in general.
The usual comet consists of very
bright series Of hydrocarbon bands but
the comet now visible shows very light
hydrocarbon bands with II pair of in.
tensely bright sodium lines. The strik.
ing orange color Of the comet head
rs observed in various parts Of the coun
try, is said to be due TO ~incaDlescent
sodium yapor.
Many persons have seen the comet
during the past week, and by careful.
observers II has been noticed that II
is moving in a northern direction. On
Wednesday evening II could be seer
from $3.50 o'clock until $40 O'Clock
when it disappeared behind the western
horizon. The comet is said to resembl,
the comet of lss2, and will be known
rs the 1910 comet No. !. The come,
Of lss2 appeared in September follow
