Because, if there were needed additional evidence to convince one that the Oregon rJ?runk is a Hill proper.', j.his last proclamation is absolutely convincing it is assurance par amount. But the benefit of be ing inoluding in this competi tion is not the greatest which will ensue from the association. Central Oregon is taken into the fold ; it is to be given the fostering care of the Hill roads, and not left to blunder along as best it may the care which has caused Washington to forge ahead of Oregon. And, Ore gon will respond enormously and magnificently to this adop tion, j. J. Hill, who builds railroads "and creates empires, will find that Central Oregon is a foundling well worthy his steel, and that he will be won derfully repaid because of his roads building into this terri tory. L The settlers of Central Ore gon may Well be prepared for such competitions as the one now inuagurated by the Hill roads, as many means will be found to stimulate them to their best efforts along this line. 'noted comet soon visible The calculation of Frank E. Seagrave of Providence, R. Lj that Halley's comet will be nearest the earth May 29, 1910, is confirmed by the Rev. Father George Searle of New York, superior general of the Paulist Fathers and widely known as an astronorner., Feather Searle basea Ilia calculations . on ob servations made at the Lick jObservatory, September i2, 13 and 14 and on the elements given by Professors Cowell and Crommel last March. Father Searle states that on May 28, the earth, and the cele brated, comet-will be iuinjlio centrio conjunction in longUude,; .the longitude being 236 degrees ,48 minutes. The heliocentric .latitude of the comet will be jninus seven minutes. Father Searl says there will be no act ual transit of the comet over -the suu disk according to those ,element8j but that a slight change might produce one. "At auy rate, it seems highly 1 probable," ho said, "tuat on May 28 we shall be i'nHide the comet's tail." : . Writing in Hampton's maga ssine of this periodical visitor, Garrett P. Serviss says: "Halley's comet has recentlj' been traced back to 240 J3. C., but its return has probably been made much longer than that. Halley discovered it in 1082 and predicted its return in , 17D8. Halley died in 1?42, 10 years before the fulfillment of his prophecy. Halley's comet travels a long elliptical path mound the sun which measures ASO,000,000 miles. Its journey time varying on .account of the attraction or repulsion of the obstacles, which it ineets. Its laBt appearance in our sky, was in 1836. It is now approaching the ear.th and will be visibje to the naked eye in the late Fall; It will slowly brighten during next Winter, being visible from nearly all parts of the earth. It will reach-perihelion April 18. 1010. It will then be 00, 000,000 miles from the sun. Its greatest brightness is expected to occur after its perihelion pas sage, when it will draw nearer the earth, and be visible in both the morning and evening sky." Professor Serviss adds this statement: 'One of 'the most surprising discoveries of astron omy is Mint of the rapid motion of the whole solar system to ward a point in the Northern part of the sky. This motion takes. place at the rate of at least 800,000,000 miles a year. Thus we are continually being borne into a new region of space." , BAPTIST SERVICES Preaching at Madras the 4th Sunday of each month. Union Sunday school at 10 a. m. every Sunday.
