One of the best jokes of this comet
season is Oh Capt. Knapp, chief hydro
grapher at Washington, who sent out q
general appeal to navigators asking them
to watch for the heavenly visitor careful
ly note it's position and its peculiarities,
and report observations to him. So
widespread has been the interest in the
comet that incoming reports are swamp
ing the appropriation for the payment of
the cost of the messages, which come
servation to an end. Therefore the an
preparation will probably need tail in
the form Of deficiency provision.

viewed the aims and purposes of the
order and the good which had been
accomplished by its members since it
was conceived by the artists in New

Cobb delivered the eulogy TO the de-
parted brothers. He took charity from
the ritualistic purpose of the order and
showed the real meaning of the word
as understood by Elks the world over.
He appealed TO the brother Elks as man

of the Elks' creed-charity of man.
The music was especially appropriate.
