HAlLEYs COMET
Light of Moon Makes 1t Indis-
tinct at Present, but 1t Will
Get Brighter Soon.

DR.. Charles II. Winston, of Richmond
College. Is perhaps the first man in
Richmond to have seen Hauey's comet
as 1t rushed toward the earth at a
wholly untmaginable rate OF speed.
In order to see the comet, he got out
of bed ar o'clock yesterday morning,
and with the aid of three-inch tele-
scope located tho meteor without any
trouble.
At present the comet Is not visible
to the naked eye. chiefly because the
full moon makes the heavens so well
lighted that the smaller light of the
comet cannot be seen. With a small
glass, however. the comet is easily
seen, and as soon as the moon wanes.
1t may be observed with the naked
eye
The comet will become larger and
brighter every night as we'll as
earlier, until May is, when 1t will pass
between the earth and the sun, and

to be seen in the heavens for three

chants Association declaring that they
realized that the coming Of the militia
companies from Massachusetts,. Connec-
ticut, Rhode Island and South Caro-
lima would mean great boost" for

chants. Patriotism and loyalty to the
Blues also entered into their deliber-
atoms. and they said that they would
help in every way within their power,
Major Z. w. Bowles, commanding
officer stated last night that he felt
Very much encouraged, and that he

denied coming from the house In the
small hours OF the morning
Mr.. Fulton explained to the court
that he had no desire to go into the
main facts bearing on the divorce
proceedings, which were not at issue,
but only to show that Mr. Wcnden
burg had probable cause for believing
that Tyler was an available witness
for Tenney, and that In duo exercise
of his position as Teupay's attorney,
hc had interviewed the witness, as
was the common and accepted prac-
'tiee among attorneys IN the prepare
ton OF their cases for trial.
Mr.. Royal asserted that all of the
talk of probable cause was shan
and a pretense."

shouted to the court. They framed up

Echo of Norfolk Politics.
An affidavit from Pannill was read
into the record denying all of the allie
cations as to any conspiracy. a
counter statement from Walter sharpe
of Norfolk, serving to attack Pannills
reputation for veracity developed a
hot Norfolk political fight that had
little bearing on the case in point.
1t seems that Pannill an official of
the Atlantic Bitulithic Company, was
at one time a member of the. Norfolk
Board of Aldermen, and had refused
TO vote for Sharp as clerk of the board.
Tyler in his evidence denied the
stories of late suppers and wining and
dining told by Pannill. He said he
came to Richmond to inform Mrs. Ten
ney that Wendenburg was going TO
name him as a correspondent in the
suit.
Il knew that If / were named noth-
ing dscreditable could be proved be
asserted, but / thought she ought to
know what they intended to do.
Here MIR. wendenburg took mp the
examination OF Tyler.

TO see Mrs. Tenney after our talk in
Baltimore, We're you authorized by me-
or by any one else TO make any Inn
froper proposition to Mrs. Tenne.i!"
he asked.
No replied the witness. The only
time, the witness explained that hel
had dined with Mrs. Tenney at her eN-
pense was when she was living at the|
Jefferson Hotel, and when he had heen
her guest there at meals they had
been placed upon her account as
matter of course. He deTed that there
had ever been any improper relations
between himself and either Mrs. Ten
ney or Miss Tenney, now Mrs. Bunch.
The conclusion of the case came sud
denly after Mr.. Wendenburgs evil
dence. Judge Grinnan merely am
nounced Mat argument on the case
was unnecessary; that the law on the
case was plain and was known TO the
attorneys, and that the rule was ais
missed There was some discussion
then as to the time for taking afida.

Norce proceedings. which will probably
