Her Daughter.

she WIN Tura over All Basi. sss to
Her Daughter.
Mrs. Hetty Green, celebrated for
years as the richest and shrewest bust
ness woman In the world, will soon
retire from active business life and
will turn over the handling OF her
immense fortune. estimated at $780,
100000. to her daughter Sylvia. now
Mrs. Matthew Aston Wilks.
For months 1t has been rumored
that Mrs. Green's health Is falling.
and these rumors have been partially
substantiated during the last few
weeks by the irregularity Of the aged
woman's visits to her offioe In the
Chemical National Bank, and her
feeble appearance when she does ma
terialize there. Among tho few per
SONS in close touch with Mrs. Green Il
Is understood that for years she has
been quietly training her daughter to
successfully manage her immense for
tune. and that since her daughters
marriage to Mr.. Wilks. with it's ac-
companying possibility OF an heir. this
training has been increased. 1t is re-
ported that the transfer Of the active
control of Mrs. Green's millions to her
daughter for management Is only =
question of few weeks at most
Hetty Green Is rs years old. Her
age. coupled with her monotonous
business routine, has begun to tell dp-
on her. She no longer is able to put
the snap and dash into the handling
OF her affairs that characterized her In
the past, although her shrewdness. 1t
Is said, is as keen as ever. One OF
Mrs. Green's geratest disappointments
In life, 1t Is said. has been the non
inclination OF her son. Edward II. r.
Green, who lives In Texas, TO become
as famous a financier as herself. At
one time she put t20.0o0.000 into
southwestern railroads for her son. SO
that he might become a railroad mag
nate. The accumulation Of wealth,
however, is not fad with Edward H
r. Green, who Is content to live well
and carry on sufficient business at the
same time to keep his mind occupied
Sylvia. the daughter, takes more after
her mother. and 1t is on this account
that the control Of her mothers enor
nous fortune will soon be turned ovel
to her.-New York American.

FLIGHT TRIAL ILLFATED.
Aviator Has Disastrous Trip Over
Rocky Mountains.

Helena, Mont. c. Mars, aviator,
underwent one of the most remarkable
experiences of his career when he es
sayed to make a flight across the Rocky
Mountains. The effort resulted in dis
aster, but Mars succeeded in establish
ing an American altitude record, his
aneroid indicator showing a height of
1900 feet. John Ringing, of Chi
cago, and Lewis Penwell, of Helena,
offered Mars a purse of 81, 900 if he
succeeded in crossing the main range
of the Rockies and he made the start
at 10 o'clock.
The start was most suspicious, the
heavy weather favoring him, as he
passed out of sight. Hours passed and
no report was received from towns on
the other side and it was realized that
he had met with an accident
Searching parties were sent out and
found the dismantled machine near the
top of the range, where it had fallen.
Fortunately Mars had escaped injury.
The right plane, front wheel and pro
peller were smashed in alighting, but
the machine was brought back

RELIGION INTERFERED
WITH MANUEL'S PLANS

London.-That King Manuel of
Portugal did not go home with an
English princess as his promised
queen It is not his fault. 1t was ex-
pected fully that he would be engag-
ed to Princess Alexandra of Fife, but
the question OF religion intervened
and for the present at least negotia-
tions for this particular royal mar
riage are off. Princess Alexandra is
a quiet. shy young woman, a typical
English girl in fact, but she is almost
pur.tanical in the matter Of her re-
llgious convictions and absolutely re-
fused to consider becoming Roman
Catholic even to wear the crown of a
queen. AS it is necessary for the
consort to be a Catholic. the position
Of the princess created an impasse
which 1t is not likely will be over
come.
Efforts to induce the parents of
the young princess and even the king
to exert influence over her to change
her mind, were futile. Her mother,
in fact, rather sympathized with her
and the king declined to interfere.

HALLEY's COMET.
Pacific Coast VIII Get Best View o
Celestial Visitor.

NtitNiht
Oakland Cal.-On May IS, between
4 o'clock p. m. and 10 o'clock p. M,
Halley's comet will come closest to
the earth, according to Professor
Charles Burkhatler, of the Chabot OBJ
servatory. Professor Burkhalter re-
fuses to predict as to the consequence
es to the earth. He says the display
will be spectacular and that the ef-
feet will be seen best on the Pacific
coast. He said:
According to the computations,
Halley's comet will reach the des-
cending node on May IS, 1910, when
T. will be in n direct line between the
orbits of the earth and the sun, and
II so happens that the earth VIII reach
that particular point of Its orbit about
the same time Should the calcula'
tions of astronomers prove correct
the comet will pass directly between
the earth and the sun between the
hours of and 10 o'clock. standard
Pacific time.
"Assuming that 1t will happen dur
ing the middle OF this time or p
m. II will be visible over the Paclflc
ocean, eastern Asia and western
North America. The sun Will have
set in the eastern part of the United
states, and the comet will be there
fore invisible to all parts of the
country on that side of the Rocky
mountains. Thus we have on the
western edge of the continent an op-
portunity of observing this transit
that is absolutely unique and without
precedent in the history of the comet
Another feature of the visit lies
in the fact of the nearness of the
comet to the earth--a distance of H.
OOO. 900 miles. AS the tail OF the
comet should be about 2O,o0O,ooo
miles long and pointing directly away
from the sun, it will doubtless be en-
countered by the earth, but on that
point / have nothing to say"
