Comet Turns Goal oults Marathon.

so many million miles a minute,
according to astronomers, for
the past seventy five years is at
last visible, and those who have
been anXlously waiting for its
appearance can now catch n faint
glimpse of it in the earstern sky
between three and four O'Clock in
the morning. 1t still lacks the
brillance and glory it will take
on later, the tale of which is
some fifty lnilion miles long, be-
ing barely di-cernable as vet.
The comet reached the turning
point in its marathon around the
sun yesterday and Is now round
ing the sun preparatory to cha
sing itself back into that pluto
man darkness whence it came. 1t
is moving very slowly, astrono-
mers say, going only at Il rate of
some Odd thousand miles a
second, which for celestial visi-
ltors is the same thing as being
tied to q post.
From now on until the latter
part OF May it will be brilliant
spectacle in the early morning
sky and then it shifts its engage
ment to the evening sky for mid
summer, so that everybody may
have a chance to see it.
1t will attain its greatest brill
auce about the middle of h
month; on May Is it will sauci-
ly switch it's fifty million mile tale
in the enrth's face. Scientists are
wondering W II a t will happen
when the earth pluuges through
the comets tail.
Nobody has evercaught a COM
ct by tile tail and so scientific
knowledge OF what the tail is
composed of is very meager but
they say that nothing will hap
pen-or if anything does happen
it will be to the comets tail and
not to the earth.
According to The generally ac-
cpptel theories the tail is COM
posed OF fine particles OF DUST
star dust, perhaps or invisible
gases. Whichever it may be does
not matter for when it hits the
earth, it willlose The trustslnly
gobblD up the gas as they are ac-
customed to do, with all such
public utilities.
Observers at Harvard Univer-
sity after beholding the comet
gave out the following state
ment:
"a good photometric measure
inent OF the brightness Of the nu-
cleus of Halley's comet was OBJ
tained. The measured magni-
tude of the nucleus waS6-4. The
total brightness of both the nu-
cleus and the surrounding coma
! was q little above the fifth mag
nitude. The comet has grown
somewhat brig Shter within the
last few days and is now visibl e
to the naked eye.
'From the popular point of
view the comet is disappointing
ut this time, and with The APP
proach of the moon during the
region in the sky in which the
comet is found there will lie very
little to repay the early riser. In
fact astronomers do not look for
any spectacular display while the
comet is in the eastern sky.
However when 1t passes be-
tween the earth and the sun and
reappears in the west. it will be
an object OF much interest.
Centuries ago the co m t
haunte,l a good sized tail, but
conflicts with the sun every sew
/ ry seventy years has shorn the
comet OF much OF its bright ap-
pendagr. "-Asheville Citizen.

DISLIKE SPANISH QUEEN
cipitate Open Break in the Royal Household.

Madrid, Aug. 24.-So bitter is the feeling at court between the clericals and Queen Victoria, to whom many Catholics lay the blame for the break with the Vatican, that several of the leading members of the royal house. hold contemplate resigning. This be- came known as the queen. with King Alfonso, is returning from England and Paris.
 The queen and her mother, Princess Henry of Battenburg, have been re- gardsd with small favor by the Span ish aristocrats and their known bias toward the Church of England has in creased the strain.
 Although the government ostensibly attaches no importance to the Carlist assemblies planned for the Basque province on August 2S. military pre- cautions against an uprising have been taken in Catalina and Navarro as well as the provinces on the Bay of Biscay.

COURSE 0F BROWNE TRIAL REPRESENTATIVE WHITE NOW UNDER cRoss-ExAMlNAT Defense Has Mysterious Witnesses
 Whose Identity Is Not
 Disclosed.

Chicago, Aug. 24.-Cross-examina tion of Representative Charles A.. White, star witness for the state in the trial of Lee O'Neil Browne, Demo cratic minority leader, was begun be- fore Judge Kersten. Counsel for Browne announced early that they were prepared to break down every important point made by White in his direct testimony. Efforts were made to force White to admit that he is the tool of conspirators who entered into plot to ruin Browne and United States Senator William Lorimer." Mystery is attached to the identity of seeral new witnesses who will be called to the stand by the defense. The lawyers for Browne admitted that new witnesses had been brought to Chicago. They refused, however, to reveal the names of the men or tell where they could be found
