The visit of Halley's comet to our
skies, after an absence of 70 years,
is one of the supreme events of life
time. While the popular frenzy and
superstition associated with It's ap-
pearance In 1456 are not now to be
looked for, it is safe to say that the
nightly presence In our sky of this
monster of celestial depths will excite
universal interest 1t is with a view

proper means of treatment. A public
tuberculosis sanitarium would supply

cured in this climate, if it is durable

can treat their cases. Vote the little
ballot in favor of this tax.

bowels, and other organs. The
brain, the kidneys, the liver, the

The following is quoted from let

Il an on the lookout for the comets
being seen with the naked eye. 1t
seems yet to elude us, and 1t is now
working down so near the sun that
almost fear 1t will not be seen till
after 1t has passed the sun, which
event occurs March 81. This win
bring the comet into the morning sky
for a period of about seven weeks,
and during that time 1t will swing
about and come rapidly toward the
earth, and the earth go rapidly toward
it, so that its size and magnifcence
will rapidly Increase. If seen earlier
will promptly notify you, possibly by
telegraph
1T will certainly be seen in the
morning sky very early in April. and,
without waiting for reports to that
effect, should think that you should
certainly start the series by April 1,
If not before, unless you are depending
upon its being seen for stimulus to
purchase on the part of the editors.

Will be about that time at its biggest

that time also that earth and moon

10 days or so OF wonderful evening
views, after which the comet will
somewhat rapidly retire into space and

Moose Will Probably Accept or Re-
iect Rock Island Club Offer.

Ject Rock Island Club Offer.
1t is probable that at the meeting
of the local Moose lodge this evening
at the Y NJ. C. A auditorium the
membership will finally pass upon the
proposition from the Rock Island Club
for the sale of its property at Six
teenth street and Third avenue. The
Rock Island Club property is most
favored by the membership for the
reason that 1t includes club quarters
that are in every way suited to the
Moose lodge, and the further fact that
the figure offered is considered reason
able. The Moose lodge still is con-
sidering the Spear site at Eighteenth
and Third on account of a counter
proposition to embrace a theatre in
the new building, with an offer of a
long lease ON the same.

WOODBURY. IDENTIFIED As
KANSAS BANK L00TER
Former Resident of Highland De-
CIares Man in City Jail
+, Is MARCEL

c. e. Smith, q carpenter of 2610 Cen
tral avenue, yesterday identified James
A. Woodbury., who is in the city Jail
awaiting a hearing before Judge Fred
erickson on a charge of passing bogus
checks, as J. f. MARCEL, at one time
cashier of the State Bank of Highland,
Kan.
Il am positive he is ]. E. MARCEL" +"
said Smith, who formerly lived on a
farm near Highland.
Smith has resided in Los Angeles for
the past ten years, but he lived at
Highland previous to that and was a
depositor in the Highland bank, which
MARCEL was convicted of looting and
fos which he served three years in the
state penitentiary at Lansing.
l. Smith heard that Woodbury. was
supposed by detectives to be MARCEL
and he asked Paul Flammer, captain
Of detectives, to be allowed to see
him, inasmuch as he was sure he
would know MARCEL If he should see
him.
The story of Smith was investigated
by F'lammer, who pronounced it
straight. Smith produced papers from
the bank, which proved he at one time
transacted business with the institu-
tion.
Woodbury. was identified in Los An
geles by the Bertillon system of
measurement He was arrested about
a month ago in Chicago for passing a
bogus check. Woodbury., or MARCEL,
may be taken to Kansas City. MARCEL
is wanted for swindling business men
there after his release from the peni-
tentiary.
