of the ninth MAGNITUDE. Observers at
the observatory here were notified OF
Its discovery by Rev. Joel Metcalf in
mis- observatory at South Hero, VT.
The aerial stranger will be known as
Metcalfs comet. At the hastily esti-
mated speed the comet would be due
sn about three months. and astrono-
mers throughout the country are pre-
pairing to make observations. 1t Is
said the wanderer will upset many

the comet was coming directly to-
wards the earth, but later observa-
tions show that it will not come close
enough to cause anxiety.
