Chief Glory of Canada Is It's

Ottawa, Can, JAN. 2s.-% The chief

claimed sir Wilfrid Laurier one crisp

swiftest hockey in the world, the bright
eyes and rosy cheeks OF the boys and

with ski and tObaggans on the slopes
of the snow clad hills, all indorse the
premier's verdict, although the iHni

The monarchs who attended the
funeral rode on horseback behind the
gun carriage which bore the remains
OF King Edward through the streets
Of Lndon. They rode for the most
part with bowed heads, giving little
or no notice to the attention or the
great throngs gathered to see them
pass. Even theii horses, pacing slow
ly and solemnly behind the casket,
wore the insignia of mourning and
seemed to feel that they were taking
part in a solemn, moN rnful ceremony.
The route of the funeral procession
was crowded with Londoners and Wis.

whom had stood for hours waiting
for the procession. Shrewd proprie-

Following the kings and princes on
horseback came their female rela

ing carriage was the bereaved queen
mother with her unmarried daughter
Princess Victoria. The sight OF the
widowed queens carriage, movin6

Whom Scheduled to Be In Western.
New York. May 20.--Comet, comet,
who's got the comet? was the game
that had the Astronomical puzzle
solvers sweeping the skies by night
and wondering by day during the
past "a hours. There was every rea-
son to believe that we had been
swlshed by the tail or that we had
not been swlshed; that the tail was
tagging into a wide curve or that It
had tied itself securely around the
comets head; that the tail had been
shed and dissipated. or that II was
growing longer every minute; that 1t
was In the eastern sky or on the
western horizon. and that there was
Or wasn't any such thing at all
The truth OF the matter is that Mr..
Halley's wanderer has got the astron-
omers wondering just where they get
off. They had IT. all figured just when
we would pass through the tail.
There could have been no error In
their reckoning. they say. because
they have a system of checks that
precludes mistakes. SO we all got
ourselves braced up to the point OF
withstanding the mighty frisking
without a murmur and at the ap-
pointed time everyone looked at
everyone else as though he would
just as soon do that all day. And
then they flashed It on us that the
worst hasn't really happened at all
and that perhaps II won't happen.
What knocked the figuring into
cooked hat was the appearance OF
the tail lust before dawn over In the
eastern sky when they all thought It
was Tipping well down In the west.
ern sky. And when they realized
that the ogarithm tables had been
turned on them, they were noncom-
initial for while and then they be-
gan increased curves and things like
that.
Just at sunset Professor Harold ia
coby led another solemn procession
out to the park wall on Riverside
drive and watched for symptoms for
upwards OF an hour and half. Ju.
piter came out according to schedule
a few degrees on the right of the
moon instead of on the left as II was
the night before, and there were a
few plumes of smoke rising into the
western horizon from the Jersey
shore, and the after-dinner comet
hunters we're there with binoculars
and opera glasses and monocles. but
not ray of hope or luminous tail
showed IN the sky.
"The most reasonable explanation
OF the way the comet has acted" said
the professor. Seems to be that
the tsil has curved more than we an
ticipated. In that event 1t might
easily miss the earth entirely. Per.
haps we have already passed through
the tall, perhaps we may go through
It later, or perhaps the experience
has been denied us altogether. A
curve that would be enough to warp
the tail so that the distance from
head 10 tip would be less than a..
0O0,0o0 miles would put us out OF the
tails reach, Or possibly II curved
around one side or the other OF the
earth or above or below us. We can
only wait until some other appear.

mystery meant and whether there
was any reason why Mr. Pinchot's
name should not have appeared. The
plain inference drawn by Mr.. Yer

regard to these letters, was that Gar
