tion just before dawn on April 8, or shortly after that date, says
Mr. Campbell, director of the Lick observatory on Mt. Hamil
ton. ‘ While it is never possible to predict just how bright a
comet is going to be,” he said, “it is safe to say that the head
and perhaps a little of the tail of the comet will be visible at
I . the time.”
On May 18 the comet will pass between the earth and the
sun at adistance of 14.000,000 miles from the earth. On this
day the earth may pass through the tail of the comet, but there
is no danger for the terrestial life, as at this distance from the
head the tail will be extremely attenuated. The passage of the
comet between the sun and earth cannot be observed to advan
tage from here because the sun will be close to hte horizon, and
observations will have to be made through a great extent of
terrestial atmosphere.
