CELESTIAL WANDERER PLAINLY VISIBLE IN WESTERN SKY IN EARLY EVENING. Comet A-1910 is an object of great Interest In the western sky these evenings. Nearly everybody In En terprise was out viewing It Friday evening. It shines as a rather dim star but its tail spreads upward over about four degrees of celestial longi tude in a long, brilliant sweep. Some people have confused this celestial visitor with Halley's comet ithat is expected to be visible to the naked eye dn a couple of months. They are entirely different breeds of comets, however. Halley's comet is a regular has been' making trips around the sun every 76 or 77 years since people began to notice and record such doings. Its periodicity Is known and calculated by astrono mers to a day barring the influence of certain big bodies, like Jupiter and Saturn, In retarding or accel erating the comet's speed. Comet A-1910 oa the other hand Is an interloper, a casual visitor, just dropped in for a little warming up trip around our sun. It Is a big fel low though and If it had substance equal to Its size there would) be some thing doing. As It Is, only a great mass of burning gas, when it has completed its little Idetour around Old Sol, off It (wild go into the Im mensity of space and never be seen agalu by any one on earth.
