COMETS NEW TAIL.
Astronomers Agree That the New
Appendaee Is 90 Degrees Long.

Astronomers hpree That the New
Appendase Is 30 Degrees Long.
Forty degrees OF newborn tail for
the comet and doubling of its lumi-
Mostly. owing TO flaming hydrocarbon
gas, were reported by the astronomers
at Williams Bay observatory, after
the specrographic negatives had been
developed Prof e. B. Frost, director
of the observatory, announced the re-
suits of the computations.
-Four of us, after independent calcu-
lations, agree that the new tail OF the
comet is 40 degrees long, he said.
1.-THE tail was visible long after the
comet had set. The eclipse of the
moon helped greatly in the obserya-
tons, Observations by the hand spec
troscope showed carbon bands in the
head of the comet. These were con-
firmed by the development of the
negatives made with the Pinch tele-
scope. The internal activity of the
comet is in full blast. 1t is making
gas at terrific rate"
Prof. Frost said he did not expect to
see the old tail in the east.
THE old tail must disappear" he
added. when detached from its
"ource 1t can only condense or fade
away, as the end of an active tail
always does"
Fine weather for observing pre-
vailed throughout the most of the
night at Williams Bay, although it
was cloudy and rainy over Chicago.
During the total eclipse, the moon
presented the appearance of dull
reddish disc. This, according to Prof.
E. E. Barnard, of Yerkes observatory,
was due to the red rays of the solar
spectrum, which had the property of
bending inward
