NEWLY DISCOVERED
 COMET VISIBLE HERE

Dallas, Tex, Jan. 20.-The new comet, discovered at the South African Observatory and observ- ed at the Lick Observatory few days ago, attracted general at tention throughout Texas to- night. It was visible in the southwestern sky close to the horizon immediately after sun set, hourished a tail about three feet long and set in about 20 minutes.
 At Muskogee, Okla, it was ob- served at 1 o'clock in the day time.
 In New Mexico it presented a brilliant sight in the rarified at mosphere
 Hundreds of people in Dallas and other Texas cities stood in  the streets after sunset and watched the celestial visitor.
 The comet was visible in Little Rock shortly after sunset and appeared close to the Western horizon. The body of the comet was brilliant and the tail appear, ed to be three or four feet long. It attracted general attention throughout Little Rock and for about 20 minutes the telephones at the Gazette office were kept busy by anxious inquirers.
 Some wanted to know what the queer looking thing was and still others wanted to know the name of the comet.
 A strange light ill tie West just at dusk last evening excited no little interest and comment throughout Prescott. It was wis. ible for about 20 minutes and was seen by a great number of peo. pie, and those who saw it state | that it was very much like com ct. At the time it was seen the jcOmet was about ten minutes high and a few degrees south of west. It was moving very rap idly, and seemed to be following the course of the sun. It was out of sight in a short time.

COAST CHINESE n
Are INDIGNANT
Prince Tsai Taos Refusal to Accept
Gifts Arouses 0rientals-China-
town Placarded With Insults.

SAN FRANCISCO. Apr. 23.--Local
Chinese are indignant and ashamed
over the action Of Prince Tsai Tao,
minister of war, uncle Of the EN-
peror and brother Of the Prince Re-
gent of the imperial empirei in de-
liberately ignoring their gifts, their
expressions OF welcome and esteem.
The walls of Chinatown early to-
day were placarded with lampoons
OF the youthful nobleman in which
he was referred to as "chlld" whose
ignorance and lack OF politeness was
only forglvable because Of his youth.
Scurrilous iingles and caustic
comments on the Prince were blazon-
ed in red and black In Chinatown.
The Oriental quarter seethed with
wrath and the placards had been up
but n short time before they were
surrounded by crowds of Chinese.
Later the six companies took action
and after conference decided to
order the placards down. There was
talk of resistance. but finally the
assailants OF the Prince gave in and
the offending signs were removed.
Has No Manners.
The placards referred to the
Prince as a "young man who came
from the country and had failed to
learn even country manners before
learning city manners"
Similar phrases and worse indi-
Gated the local Chinese contempt for
the inexperience of the Prince. There
was Indicated a feeling that the
home government had offered an in
suit to the United States and to the
Chinese In America by sending a
rchild' as a representative of the
nation and the Chinese here,

said that no application for protec-
ton for the Prince had been made
he would take precautions against

against the Prince upon the diplo-
mats deDarture for Washington to

THE poIsoNs IN COAL GAS
Many Are Known. But There Is ore
Ccnctltueat That L : Puzzle
70 S1,enti-.s.

The poisonous properties of coal gas
are generally attributed TO Its content
of carbonic oxide especially as no
other substance OF known poisonous
properties has been soinld in 1t, and
patients suffering from coal gas poison
ing show the symptoms associated
with the inhalation OF carbonic oxide,
including the peculiar bright red color
OF the blood. From experiments made
by DR.. Won Vahlen, at Halle, It seems
probable that we must revise this
view for on making experiments with
frogs, animals particularly resistant 10
carbonic oxide, II was found that they
were poisoned far more rapidly by coal
gas than by the corresponding amount
OF The oxide. Other experiments with
dogs showed that the poisonous effect
OF coal gas was twice or three times
as great as that Of the earbonic oxide
1t contained Evidently there Is some
other constituent of coal gas which Is
poisonous, though what 1t is cannot
yet be stated Merely removing the
carbonic oxide from coal gas will no.
suffice to render It non-posonous.- -

Although Good impression Was Made
Yesterday by Strong Financial
Showing of Railroads.

New York, March 12.-rhere was
a residue of short sales to be covered
in today's stock market which were
put out late yesterday to the accom-
paniment Of rumors which had no
Foundation. The demand did not ex-
tend much beyond that source.
A good impression was made by the
agreement between the Baltimore K
Ohio management and the employees
ovr the wage dispute. The strong
financial showing made by the raj
roads and the New York Central Sys-
tenn annual reports was of sustaining
influence There was in evidence al
so supporting operations Of United
States Steel,
A restraining influence Is the
obvious hardening tendency of the
money market. While the call loan
department has not been affected this
week, it is expected that higher rates
will prevail in new distant future.
Rates for time loans were advanced
another fraction today.
The bank statement showed the
effect Of withdrawals of cash by the
interior in connection with the
spring planting season. The week !
financing has expanded the loan ac-
count, which now exceeds the de-
posts again for the first time since
January s. The excess of loans over
deposits which disappeared in the
statement of January Is, had been
existent since November 6. At that
time the Bank of England five per
cent discount rate was dtsplacing
London credits in favor of American
borrowers and had obliged them to
look to home supplies to replace
them, while gold meanwhile went out

Reasons Why Some Townspeopls Are
Unable to Live Comfortably In
the Country.

The necessity which some people
feel for noisy surroundings was mem
TONED by famous specialist In CIV
ing medical explanation of the case
OF little Horace Collins. the heroic
messenger boy, says the London Daily
Mail The lad. although able to graft,
fly every wish as the guest OF Lord
Lansdowne at Bowood house, has a
mastering longing for the hustle and
light of the London streets.
1T is very clear case OF nostalgia. :"
said the doctor "A person suffering
like that has lost two everyday friends,
as II were--noise and light 1t is en-
tirely due to the nerves. Our nervous
system gets into a pronounced groove
in accordance with the everyday con-
dition under which we live. A sud
den change in living throws the nerv-
GUS system out OF gear Both light
and noise are nervous stimuli to peo-
pie who live amid noise and light.
Take away the comradeship OF noise
and light. and the nervous system
loses two stimulants necessary to it's
we'll being and suffers In consequence
& With the boy Collins the fact that
he does nct see policemen troubles
him, because policemen to him have
become an important part OF the nat
ural scheme Of things.
"A very similar case occurred with
a London housekeeper Of mine. She
was sent away to the country, and
simply could not endure to live there
She missed the companionship Of
noise so much that she had to bs
