COMET lilt COMES BACK AGAIN PAYS YIIT i:vi:i!Y s i:v i :xty- ri v k y ka i ts Scientists YVatcli for Avicitr:iiuv of; Huiley's Comet Due to Make I Apiicaraiiee In tlic Xcar I'uturc Very Oldest Comet Known Existed; P.efoiv ( lil lstlan Era Comets I.ost in Truckle Waste of Starry Heav ens. ! Washington. t. Is. Astiono niers at the naval observatory are not paiiig much utteiition to the return of Haih-.v's comet, which Is now ap-1 roachlng the earth. This comet makes an appearance every Tj years, and Is the oldest celestial wanderer1 known to earth-people, having been observed, according to old record.", pievious to the beginning of the ( Christian era. Scientific observations j since the Inception of the modern science of astronomy show that Its or bit varied little and that it may be confidently expected according to: schedule time. While Washington astronomers are; not taking observations, several i western observatories have made' preparation to photograph the com-j et, and .should their efforts develop! anything of value, the naval observa tory will later I ike up the comet quest. With the announcement of every returning comet, supertitious people immediately begin to entertain ab surd fears of what might happen In case of a collision. While nit deny ing that such a collision Is possible, and that conditions might develop which would render It disastrous, most astmnomers assert that such a disaster Is so remote as to be almost unthinkable. Some scientists believe that life was extinguished on the earth mure than once by fires generated by comets anil that th- growth of human, ani mal and vegetable life took millions of year to reach its present develop ment A comet. In brief. Is a bit of sime planet which has cracked off and is flying rapidly through space. It Is Intensely hot. It generates enormous) heat by Its friction going through the ether. Every such comet, while meas uring perhaps thousands of miles In diameter at the head, carries with It a sort of burning atmosphere of Its own, which precedes It for some dis tance an.l trails out behind It for hun dreds of thousands of miles in length which stretch across the heavens. Meteorites, which are fragments of comets have destroyed chips at sea i and made huge holes in the earth. Many of these have fallen in the southwest, which seems to be a fa ! vol ite place for meteorites, and the (desert of Arizona Is pitted with holes j which many miners believe were made by such visitors, i The earth came In contact with the I tad of a comet on June 3U, 1S61. The ta'l was 11S degrees long. Many peo I pie thought it caused the civil war. The comet apepared low down to ' ward the horizon In the northwest. I The whole heivens as we see them are only ISO degrees. So our comet struck across almost the whole heav ens. ! We were buried Into the substance jof that comet's tail 30,0fto miles. And 'there v.m not the slightest thing by j which anybody could know what 'happened. There was not even a Known For Its Strength!

Diaboli cal cunning seems to have surpassed itself In fiendish ingenuity In the lat est method of assassination. Ieath by telephone Is the most re cent Invention of the assassin and was devised for President Caberera, of (iuatemala, according to the state ments of the officers of the City of Para, which arrived here today. Th revolutionists in the plot hit up on a new way of accomplishing death when they attached a wire to the I '( Ivphone In Cabereru's office and connected the other end with an In fernal machine hidden In another part of the room. This Is supposed to have been accomplished during the night, and there was nothing In the ap pearance of the room to intimate that sudden death had been so cunningly prepared for the dictator. Soon after Cabera entered the room the telephone bell rang. Whether the plotters had themselves called the president's number or had left that to chance and the ordinary routine of the day lias not been discovered. Answering the call, Cabrera took the receiver off the hook and on the In st -.nt came an explosion that shatter ed the desk ami flung the president against the wall. The device of the would-be assassins had worked as they had planned, but their victim I escaped wan a tew oruises. For want of a better clew the po lice arrested five Salvadoreans on suspicion. Their Immediate execu tion was ordered, but the American minister at Guatemala Intervened and thp sentence was commuted to ban ishment and the five were placed on board the City of Para and taken to Acajutla, where they went ashore.

UMATILLA IPPLES CHALLENGE THE 8EST If apples from the west end of I'tnatjlla county are entered In the National Apple Show at Spokane In J ei eniber, as Is proposed by enthusi asts irrigatlonisls, they will enter In to competition with an enormous quantity of fruit, and the very finest hat ran be ruined In this country; arid if th" Umatilla apple make good as the enthusiastic declare they un doub'.ediy will. It will fix once for all the I boe of that district among the fruitgrowing sections of the north- v ( St. The apple from the K'ho Herrnls fnii di"tr!n will unquestionably show a fine color and flavor and If the camples taken from that at present undeveloped district make a showing that quality would Indicate, It will mean that when developed to com mercial orchards of standard varie ties and given scientific culture, I'matilla county' Irrigated section will be second to no other region In the whole Columbia river valley. Some bba of the competition against which the local fruit will be entered can be gained from the fol lowing dispatch from Spokane: With cuch favor and Interest has the National Apple show been receiv ed over the country that it is expect ed fully 25 carloads of fruit will be on exhibition and that at least 76,000 square feet of space will be required for the display. If. J. Neely, manager of the show, has received a communication from E. U Stewart of Prosser, Wash., for mer president of the Washington Htate Horticultural association, rec ommending that steps be taken to get good representative exhibits in the carload class. His letter in part Is: "I will certainly enter the contest with a carload of apples. "It seem to me that this Is a grand opportunity for the different apple districts of the northwest to show their faith In their claims of growing superior apples. "I think the matter should he brought to the attention of the com mercial clubs of the different districts with a view of taking the matter up and getting the best equipped grower In each district to enter the competi tion. "It Is certainly the best opportunity the west has ever had of showing to the east that we are really growing choice apples on a commercial scale, and at the same time convince them that we lead the world In our grade and pack. "I would prefer to he In competi tion with 25 competitors rather than with only two or three, and If It could be known early enough how many cars would be entered. It could be ar ranged to have an auction sale of the exhibits of this class on the last day of the show and the buyer could land his purchase In the eastern markets In time for the holiday trade. I be lieve this could be worked up to be the most important feature of the chow and as the apples would be the 'fream of the northwest' I think they would sell at prices never before heard of In any country. Exlilbjtors Hun No ItL-k. "The parties making exhibits In this class would be running no risk whatever, for If they put up a meri torious fruit In good shape. It is cer tain to sell at a price to more than repay the extra expense of making exhibit, without taking Into considera tion the prize money at all. "The competition cannot fall to do a vast amount of good to the whole country, for It should bring out the very best material and the very best Ideas and workmanship In grade and pack, and In this way show thousands of visitors the very best methods know. ''I know that personally I want to find the man that beats me out, for when I do, I am sure to learn some thing that I can profit by." How to fict Strong. P. J. Daly, of 1217 W. Congress St., Chicago, tells of a way to become strong. He says: "My mother, who 1 1 old and very feeble. Is deriving so much benefit from Ellctrlc. Rltters, that I feel It Is my duty to tell those who need a tonic and strengthening medicine about It. In my mother's case a marked gain In flesh has re sulted.
