COMET GROWING
A NEW TAIL
Its Old One Is Now Floating
in the Heav-
! ems
SUN SPOTS ARE TO BLAME
Precedent for This Occurrence
Is Said to Have Happened
in 1885.

Chicago, May 21.-The theory that
Halley's comet mas lost its old tail,
which is still floating in space in the
eastern sky, and that the comet is
now generating a new one, was ad-
vanced by Rev. Daniel J. McHugh pro-
fessor of astronomy at Depaul Uni
versity today The old tail was forced
away from the ecomet by the force OF
the unusual electrical repulsiOn caus-
ed by sun spots which were so prom
inent on Wednesday, he thinks. The
same thing occurred in 1885.
Earthquakes Predicted.
New Orleans La, May 21.-That
earthquakes are likely to occur affect
ing western Texas following the dis
covery of sun spots is the prediction
today of Lieut. John Soley, the federal
photographers bureau chief, who
says:
I'VE will have violent earthquakes
terrible electrical disturbances anG
auroras north and south. The seismic
disturbance will most likely occur in
the territory between west Texas anC
Mexico, West Indies, Tuni3, Algiers
Syria Caucasus and central Asia
which are on very weak portion O
the earth's crust. The release of by
drogen gas causes sun spots anC
earthquakes. The radio activity o.
the sun is the connecting link between
sun and earth"
Superstitious Were Frightened.
Bisbee, Ariz., May 21.-Medieva
scenes occurred on Chihuahua hill ov
er fear of the comet. A number of la
bOrers refused to work and some
families spent the day in praying.
A house on the hill was transformed
into strange place Of worship. The
windows were closed, and images were
displaye1, before which burned {
candle said to be blessed in an olt
Spanish sanctuary in Mexico. The 81
lence of the place was broken at time
by sobs emanating from the people
scarcely discenible in the dim light
who were prostrated before thu
images with their faces almost to thu
ground. A superstitious terror wa!
experienced when by an accident, The
candle fell from its place Cries O
horror were heard and two wome1

LOG DRAG A SUCCESS.

The road manager in Assump-
ton, who, is an officer recently
created in our sister parish seems
to be success, that is if we may
judge from the following article
in last Saturdays Assumption
Pioneer:
Mr.. Henry Dupre, the parish
rod Overseer, worked two road
drags on the streets of the town
yesterday, and it's surprising
what good work can be done with
these drags. Mr.. Dupre calls the
drags The Kock Draas, because
Mr.. James p. Kock, Of Belle Al
lance is the one who first used
and introduced this drag in this
section Of the State. 1t is not the
split leg drag, which the Nation
al Government SO strongly recon-
mends and those who have work
ed the split log says that the
kodk Drag is an Improvement.
The new drag makes perfect
road if sed Immediately following
a rain. 1t scrapes down the ruts.
fills the holes and leaves a road
as smod.h as glass. Ii can be
pulled by two mules and a cong
stretch of road can be covered in
a short time. Mr.. Dupre is hay
ing several of these drags built
and he believes that it is possible
by starting his three road men to
work after a rain, to cover the
entire public road on each side Of |
The Bayou in one day.
Mr.. Dupre informed us that !
these drags are built here and |
,nay cost something like $1O.--l
