HALLEY'S COMET
HAS,: APPEARED

Editor News:
Halley's comet in all its splendol
has greeted us. Just little
South of where the sun rises, il
may be seen in the early morning sky
between 4 and o'clock. 1t is now
larger and brighter and redder than
the planet Mars was in September
1t will steadily grow brighter for a
couple of weeks, when it shall be lost
in the glare of the sun, to emerge
again within a weeks time, and begin
it's long wearisome journey of 76
years.
The tail of the comet is pointing
away from the earth, and is not yet
visible. to the naked eye because of
the brightness of the head. However,
we shall get a glimpse of it before it
is lost in the brightness of the sun,
and again two weeks later when it
crosses our orbit at about the same
place where the earth will be on the
first of May The tail will then be
pointing toward it's destination, over
one billion miles away.
All hail; thou mighty eccentric orb,
whose friendly visit to our sun de-
lights the scientist and astronomer,
and astonishes the world, and whose
approach is heralded by many as an
evil omen. 1t is said of thee
that thou hast never visited
our skies except when some turmoil
or evil was brewing. Stay thy hand
this once, and let us look through the
broad expanse of Heaven at thy in
candescense, and feel in thy presence
one of Gods works made for mans
good and delight, and realize the
while that this molecule of earth is
not the only beauty made by that
Bountiful Hand.

TOBACCO CASES HAVE
Been RE-ASSIGNED
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, April 1.-THE Su,
preme Court of the United States to.
day re-assigned for argumnet the
cases of the United States against
the American Tobacco Company and
the Standard Oil Co.
The re-argument of these cases
comes as a direct result of the death

Moodys illness only seven justices
were left to give the decision. 1t is
believed that the court was so evenly
divided it was loath to give the coun-

the week which will open with matt
nee next Thursday afternoon.
If half of the advance notices are
true, treat is in store for the admir-
ers of a strong man in the act which
will be presented by Girard, the Her
culean idol. Girard Is an exception
ally well developed specimen Of physi"
cal manhood, and has n very prepos"
sesslng stage presence. The act is one
of strong man, combined with Jug
Cling and equilibrist work and balanc-
ing everything from an egg to a l3-
inch shell. Girard is assisted by an
eccentric comedian, who by his panto-
mimic attitudes and expressions, fur
nishes no end of fun during the act.

TO be perfect specimens of manhood
