COMET COMING
Not Been Seen Since 1835
Will Be Brightest in
May
The astronomer explained that the
entire Astronomical world is now ,on
the qui vivo and that huge refracting
telescopes, as well as reflecting ones
are being trained upon the heavens
from every important strategic point
of observation in an effort to locate the
comet, which is approaching the earth
at a rate that would make the swiftest
express train look like a snail.
With every'advantage as the result
of development in astronomical
science, at their command, all of the
leading observatories are engaged now
in friendly rivalry to see which will
be the first to sight the comet. The
moment this is done the news will
travel as fast as cable and wireless
can carry the announcement, and the
following-night telescopes in the five
continents will be trained like big
guns toward the domain of the new
comer in the heavens.
"The coming of this com«t will he
by far the most important astronomical
event of recent years. We hava cal
ciliated that Halley's comet is now
within the orbit of the plane,.lupiter,''
said the astronomer, "and is rushing
towaid the orbit of the earth at the
rate of a million miles a day. As a
faint nebnlous objwt in the constella
tion Orion it will ao doubt be sighted
in a few weeks. In fjict celestial pho
tography has it already located in liiu
itless space far beyond the vision of the
most delicate telescopic research.
As the comet enters into the orbit of
cur solar system it will grow brighter
every day until it becomes visible to
the naked eye. Aside from this it hits
an interesting place in classical, as
well as astronomical literature.
When it was last seen it was a year
before the birth of Simon Newcomb,
the great American astronomer, who
has just died, hut whose splendid
mathematical mind had long since in
cated its wlierealwuts in the far away
realms of infinite space.
There will 1h no danger of *a colli
sion. When closest it will be about
20,000,000 utiles away. It should be
brightest about next May. After
llwut July it will gradually pass
away and early in 1911 disappear into
night of impenetrable darkness, to
be seen no more until the close of th
present century.

Washington, Ang. 94.—"If jwi^llw
until next spring you will witness one
of the most magnificeut sights the
heavens have ever disclosed," said
one of the well known members of the
astronomical force at the Unittni States
Naval observatory today to the Globe
Democrat correspondent "Halley's
comet conies only once in a lifetime,
and many are lorn, live and die with
out ever catching a glimpse of it in its
dash across the skies. It was last seen
in 1835. and few persons now alive can
say they have seen it."
The snake proceeded to an adjoining
saloon and took refuge in a refrigera
tor. Later the owner of the place
was frightened rft the sight of the
suake coiled comfortably in a corner of
the ice box.
He leat a hasty retreat, and upon
returning, armed with a revolver with
which to kill he intruder found that it
had given birth to several little
snakes. The process of multiplication
continued until twenty-seven tiny
snae were wriggling about the room
By this time a great throng had
gathered and the police were com
pel led to scatter the crowd, which was
blocking the stree'g.
The mother snake is part -of an
hibit Iteing made here, and the owner
recaptured the reptile, and her brood
and made them a feature of the day's
program.

La., and Before He Is Shot to Death
He Wounds Twenty-flvS PsrBons,
Three Probably Fatally.
Monroe, La., Aug. 25.—Half crazed
either by whisky or cocaine Bill Way,
a negro from Pine Bluff, Ark., dashed
i"wn the main street of Monroe with
a double barreled shotgun, firing in
every direction. Citizens returned the
ie and the negro finally fell dead
fitter receiving a score or more of
ounds. Twenty-five citizens wert
ilured in the fight.
When the negro fell his body was
dragged into the street and latei
taken to a public square and burned
in the presence of several .thousand
p- ople.
The negro appeared on the street
with his shotgun under his arm and
Ms pockets filled with shells. When
ht started to fire those citizens who
were armed covered him and forced
him into a doorway, where he held
his ground. He would fire, step back
Into the doorway, reload his gun and
fire again. Several citizens returned
his fire every time that he appeared
and he finally fell with a bullet
through his heart. Four of the twen
ty-five citizens who were wounded by
the negro are in a serious condition,
while the injuries of the other twenty
one are of a minor nature.
Two officers who came up while the
shooting was In progress and
closed
in on the negro were probably fatally
wounded. They are Patrolman Hig
ger, shot In abdomen, and T. A. Grant,
deputy sheriff, shot in the breast and
neck. Simon Marks, a merchant, also
received an ugly wound in the breast,
which may prove fatal.
Much excitement prevailed for some
time and It was feared at one time
that a mob might form and wreak
vengeance on oth^r members of the
race, but the authorities took prompt
precautions to avoid riots.

SEEM IN NO HURRY TO MOVE
8panish Generals In Morocco Delay
Advance Against Moors.
Melilla, Morocco, Aug. 25.—The
present situation of the army of 35,000
men sent over to Africa by Spain to
advance against the Moors Is causing
widespread discontent. Owing to the
lack of proper transportation for wa
ter and supplies, as well as for
strategical reasons, any advance is
impossible for a fortnight or more.
The commanding generals seem in no
hurry to move. Spain has made every
effort quickly to concentrate this
army, but her soldiers are now cooped
up In unhealthy camps and if they do
not move soon they probably will be
decimated by disease.
When the campaign does begin It
will be on a large scale and persons
who are Intimately acquainted with
the Moors are of the opinion that the
will put up a good fight befors sur

"It would require many pages to de

If the truth were known, the proba
bilities are that Peruna has relieved
as many cases of catarrh of tho stomach
as any other popular remedy in exis
tence. We have a great many unsolic
ited testimonials from all parts of tha
United States, declaring in strong and
enthusiastic terms that Peruna has en

has restored them to health, vigor and

These are the facts. Now, if yon have

upon them or ignore them, as you
pleaso.
Symptoms of 8tomach Catarrh.
"The affection may result from error®
in diet, or tho use of alcohol. The ex
cessive use of tobacco, especially when
the juice or the leaves are swallowed,
is likely to cause it.
"Highly seasoned or coarse, irritating
foods, sometimes induce the disease.
"As chronic gastritis (catarrh of the
stomach) is essentially a secondary
affection, one of the primary causes Ul
an unhealthy state of the mouth, nose
or throat, such as bad teeth or catarrh
of the nose (ozena).
"The patients are usually poorly
nourished, pale, sallow, thin, fatigue
easily induced, muscles flabby. Lose
of appetite or capricious appetite.
"Tho tongue is usually coated brown
ish gray. Cankered mouth Is a com
mon occurrence.
"Pain is not common. When preset!
it is usually dull, and is aggravated by
food, especially when this is of an ir#»
tating character.
"Vomiting may occur in the morning,
Also after meals. Sickness to the stont*
ach frequent and persistent.
"Food produces dull headache, and*
feeling of general nervous distresa.
Constipation usually quite marked."
These symptoms, given by Gould "y|
Pyle, colncideexactly with the frequent
descriptions I)r. Hartman is receiving
from patients all over the United States.
If you havo any of these symptonn
get a bottle of Peruna. Take a dose b^

does not immediately feel better, your
appetite improve, your digestion at
once resume business.
People who object to liquid medicilMM
can now secure Peruna tablets.
