SCHOONER ROHDE ASHORE
Vessel Owned in Capital Meets Trou.
BILE in North Carolina.

A telegram received today by johnson

schooner Charles l.. Rohdc. states that
the vessel is hard and fast ashore in
the Neuse river, North Carolina, laden
with lumber for this city, and in order
to get her afloat it will be necessary to
lighter a portion of her cargo. The yes
sci went on the mud bank on her way
to this city with lumber for johnson &
Wimsatt and though the revenue cutter
Pamlico pulled on her several times, she
could not float her.
AS the Pamlico is the most powerful
vessel on the inland waters of North
Carolina, there is little probability Of
the vessel being fioated without being
lightened of her cargo. The Rohde is
ashore in. soft mud. and it is thought
that she will not be injured by lying on

DELAVAN'S COMET NOW
IN TELESCOPE VIEW
Has Assumed the Most Important
Position Thus Far
for Year.

Delavan's comet. which has been hid
den in the suns rays since April. has
come into plain telescope observation.
and is now the center of astronomical
interest: in fact, 1t has assumed the
most important position as a celestial
visitor thus far for the year 1914.
July % this comet in its rapid journey
through our system was near Theta
Auriga, and will remain in Auriga until
mid-August when 1t will enter Lynx.
1t will then be above the horizon all
night, but the best time for observation
will be two or three hours before sun
rise.
In September it will traverse Ursa
Major. and in October the constellation
Bates. At this time astronomers cannot
give an exact prediction of its brilliancy.
as it approaches its perihelion passage in
space. but it is becoming brighter and
brighter and will be more visible to the
naked eye in September.
