The Movement
Little change has been noted in
the general movement on the B. &

were 1859 loads OF freight, Of
which $50 are coal, unmoved on
the Monongah Division to the
east. West OF the division there
Is an accumulation Of 2,0S4 loads
of freight, Of which 800 cars arc
coal.
Twelve trains drew 5S4 cars Of
freight over the mountains east Of
Grafton yesterday, and Of that
total 329 cars were ocal. To the
west 5S1 freight loads were
moved, Of which 1875 cars were
coal.
Car Supply Data
Today the usual car shortage
was felt In practically every divi-

The exception was the NJ. & X,
which between privately owned
cars OF the Bethlehem Steel Cor

and other mines loading railroad
fuel, has been receiving an AK

the 71st regiment armory i'll 100000
worth of clothes, says the New York
World
The armory has been crowded since
the show opened. The display has
reused much favorable comment, by
the ingenuity of the exhibits One
is a collection of dolls dressed in Rus
sian peasant costume, to show style
sources. A number of the little figures
are after designs from the Chauve
Souris. In another booth a stuffed
camel presides over an exhibit OF cam
els-hair materials.
An original and unusual ballet, stag
ed by Alexander Leftwich of the
Ziegfeld staff, has been given at each
performance. One Of the effects is that
of human spider swinging and spin
ming in a monstrous web OF lace.
The main attraction, however, is the
showing, afternoon and evening, OF
garments for all occasions on living
models. A wedding party, complete,
except for the bridegroom, who is
hardly missed is one Of the effective
groups. Another shows a pretty man
ikin arising from her bed in a most
elaborate pink night gown and pro-
crossing through various stages of in
innate garments to gown OF black
velvet, with pearl chains swinging
from the wrists to the waist line and
the hem. Over this dress is worn an
ermine wrap.
Fall suits, trim and warm, and wraps
with high fur collars buttoned to the
nose, are largely represented, for the
benefit of the buyers stocking up for
the coming season.
Gowns are draped. Nearly every
thing fastens on one side, or is trimm-
ed on one side, or hangs lower at one
side than the other. Skirts are longer
but most of them are only i'll spots
and do not interfere materially with
the accustomed view.
The performance is given each al
ternoon at and each evening at $50.
The show will be changed each week.

Astronomers have had their tele-
scopes all set for eight periodic COM
cts due to arrive this year, but none
of the expected visitors has put in its
appearance as yet. Two unannounc-
ed sky travellers have come into view.
however and both have been spotted
BY the Cape of Good Hope observa-
tory in Africa, says the Philadelphia
Record.
The latest find is Skjellerup's COM
ct, which the Cape astronomers report
they located on May 18th. They con-
sidered it new and heretofore unseen.
But shortly after they sent the news
of their discovery to American as
tronomers Prof. A. O. Leuschner, OF
the Students observatory, Berkeley,
Cal, declared that the orbit of the
comet as computed by Professors
Crawford and Meyer, of his staff,
shows that it is very similar to that
Of Griggs' comet OF 1902. Astrono-
mers now believe that the two are
the same object, and that the name
Skjellerup must be slmPlihed to
Griggs. Future returns OF this comet
are to be expected, though, like all
short-period comets, it is faint OBJ
iect, and will be visible only IN the
through the northern heavens from
Canes Venatici into Ursa Major, just
below the handle OF the Big Dipper
The first comet of the year, called
the Cape Comet, was discovered, on
January 10th, and was later found on
\ nhof0qraDhiC plate taken with the
Bruce telescope at the Yerkes obser-
vatory. 1t has remained a telescope
object, being at no time brighter than
the tenth magnitude.
OF the eight comets that may re,
turn in 1922, Brorsen's short-peerrl6o"d
comet has not been seen SINCE 1897 90;
and Barnard's comet, known as 1884
II, has not been found at any OF its
returns since 1884, so it is improbable
that either OF these comets will be
found this year.

days from the naval training camp at
Quantico, Va. The guests, numbering
about fifty, assembled at O'Clock, and
were soon invited to gather around
the table, which was placed in the
back yard. You can imagine the joy
that filled everyone when they beheld
that table so bountifully spread with
barbecue, stew, cake, pickles and iced
tea. After every one had eaten to
their hearts content prom cards were
distributed and the young people en-
joyed proms and games until a late
hour. Every one that was there hearth
