Something has happened to Halley's
come |; has not only lost part of

Camille Flammerion feared would
so other everybody on the earth. has
disapf cared. So II became known yes
l-terday, when Harold Jacohy, Culum.
bias professor Of astronomy. leclured
Sehermerhoru Hall on the celestial Wis
itor.
Jaeohy told the students the comet
VIII not come closer than 1000, 100
miles OF this globe. 1t Is not AZ bright
as It was expected to be, aud no injur-
ious gases are now Ia the tail. Whe1
the comet turns second base In its run
around the diamond it will give the
earth "sassy" slap with its tail, bat,
sud Jacoby, no damage will be done.
The tail isn't thick enough 10 hurt any
body.
The Columbia star gazers have not
yet been able to get a glimpsc Of the
comet, though the professors aud their
aids have been sitting mp nights for
two months, hoping II would leap up
and get where the observers could
have a peep. The observatory Is In one
corner Of the grove, with trees and
buildings hemming 1t in, so only the
upper works Of the heavens come
within range of the business END Of
the telescope. Unless Hailey'- comet
slips its anchor and does skirt dance
In the great dipper or turns somer-
saults across the zenith Of the starry
vault, 1t never will be seen from tn
Columbia observatory, SO II 10 said.
One night recently In looking for the
comet, II is said, the telescope was ia
advertently lowered by the eager gaz.
ers until the oyerhanging foliage Of a
tree In the grove got In the field Of
view. q 1t happened tree frog was
sitting on limb in peaceful slumbe r.
A minute sfterward Il yell of aston ish-
ment came from the Observable ~, and
one of the astronomical gazers burst
| forth:
"The moon is Inhabited by enormous
creatures that look like frogs" he
gasped.
Another gszer hurried in and took
a peep. Sure enough, the moon was in
clear view, with big freq apparently
perched on one horn of the crescent,
There was Il great laugh the next day
at the students expense.
Comets" said Prof. Jacoby, in hls
lecture yesterday, "move in oval curved
! paths called ellipses, having the sun
usually at "A point not far from one
end Of the ellipse. Sometimes these
curves are so excessively fattened that
the farther end, far ia outer space, is
separated from our SOAR System by a
distance so vast a. TO surpass our pow
ers OF measurement. In snch case
the comets path, so far as we are con.
eerned, may be equally well regarded
as an open curve, having no other
end, and % which we shall never see
