THOUSANDS SAW IT.
Good View of the Comet From Top of
Mount Lowe.

Los Angeles, Cal, May 24-There
was one spot in southern California
from which the sight of Halleys comet
during the eclipse of the moon last
night was not obscured by fog or
cloud. From the observatory on Mt.
Lowe a fine view of both phenomena
comet and eclipse-was obtained.
Outlined against the dark heavens the
comets streamer was seen in all its
brilliancy for more than an hour. 1t
stretched upward past the zenith and
was of a yellowish glow although the
nucleus was almost white.
To the thousands of spectators who
ascended the mountain the comet ap-
peared like a gigantic searchlight and
it's train a gradually widening glare
shot across the sky.

MEANT FOR THE KING.
Bomb Exploded in Madrid Intended
for Alfonso.

Madrid, May 24.-Following a night
search and inquiry the police believe
today that bomb exploded last night
was intended for King Alfonso. The
explosive was hurled at the monument
erected to the victims of the attempt
against his majesty on his wedding
day. May 81, 1906, but the authorities
think the original intention of the
anarchist was to strike down the king
on his arrival at the railway station
on his return from London.
As a result of this conviction the
plans for King Alfonso have been
changed and it is now arranged for
him to enter the city by automobile.
The bomb thrower, who was wounded
by his own weapon, proves to have
been a South American.
Like Manuel Morales. who was be-
lieved to have headed the conspiracy
against the king four years ago, the
South American committed suicide
when he found that his capture by the
police was imminent.

COMET AND ECLIPSE.
Both Wonders Could Easily Be Seen
Monday Night.

The earth's shadow hid the moon
from view Monday night. The eclipse
began at about 9:35 o'clock and short
ly after 10 o'clock the light of Luna
was hidden completely.
Gradually the moon passed from the
black shadow and at 1880 a. m. was
clear and full again. The sky was
cloudless and beautiful. Many persons
witnessed the eclipse.
The comet could plainly be seen
during the night. It was dim and ap-
peared to be surrounded by haze but
had no tail. 1t will be an easy target
for the naked eye during the next
three weeks.
