STRUCK BY TRAiN
FIVE AUTOISTS KILLED ON SUN
DAY NEAR ST. LOUIS.
As They Were Speeding Home From
A Day's Outing at a Resort at
a Lake.
Five persons were killed Sunday
when an automobile in which they
were riding was struck by a fast
passenger train of the Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific railroad, west of
Vigues Station, St. Louis county,
Mo. All were residents of St. Luois.
The dead:
Theodore F. Witte.
Theodore F. Witte, Jr., aged 3
years.
Mrs. Carl Klinge.
Miss Halcycon Campbell.
Frederick O. Witte.
The two men were brothers and
officials of the Witte Hardware
Company. Mrs. Kilnge was their
sister-in-law. The party had been
at Creve Coeur Lake, a resort
twelve miles west of St. Louis
and were speeding homeward when
killed. Theodore Witte was driv
ing the machine, with his brother
beside him.
Mr. Witte and his brother were
tossed forty feet away. The boy's
body dropped from the front of the
train an eighth of a miles down the
track, and the women caught in the
tonneau, were crushed almost be-'
yond recognition. Theodore Witte
was not instantly killed. He sur-.
vived long enough to be carried to >
a hospital.
HOLLEY'S COMET COMING.
Will Be First Visible Here During I
September.
Next month is scheduled the visit
of Halley's comet, which visits this
earth once each 74 years or 79
years. Local astronomers or those
who believe in the influence of these
starry visitors on earthly affairs will
b6 interested to know that this his
toric comet is about due.
It has been about 75 years since
this comet, named for its discoverer,
Halley, the English astronomer, and
the most important of all the com
ets, has shown itself to terrestrial
eyes. Additional importance is at
tached to the comet, because it is the
one whfch ftyjt gave -^occasion to
Halley and his successors to dis
cover the laws which these voyagers
in space obey and to determine their
orbits.
Eleven former appearances of the
comet have been observed with ac
curacy, dating from the year 106G,
the year of the conquest of England
by William the Conqueror, at which
time it had a great effect on the
people and the army. With less
certainty one may go back to the
year 12, before our era, and assign
to this celebrated comet 25 appear
ances which have taken place in
nearly nineteen centuries, but the
older observations are not entirely
definite.
The reason why the visits of the
comet vary from 74 to 79 years is
said to be on account of the Influ
ence exerted upon it by the planets
Jupiter and Saturn, which some
times hasten and sometimes delay it.
It was last seen In 1835. It will
again come into sight some time in
September of the present year, when
it will appear as a round nebulous
object, its tail being stretched out in
a direction opposite to the earth with
the main part of the comet between
the two.
The best time to observe the
comet wll he in September, because
at that time, on account of the move
ment of the earth around the sun,
the comet will appear stationary.
The comet will be in colse proximity,
comparatively, from the latter half
of the present year throughout the
greater part of 1910. Prior to the
time when it appears stationary In
September and after that time as
long as it is In resonable distance,
the comet will be most easily locat
ed by photography.
WOMAN MOONSHINER IN JAIL.
She Is Accused of Making Moonshine
in Liberty County, Ga.
The first woman moonshiner ever
copped by the local Federal authori
ties, says a dispatch from Savannah,
was brought in a few nights ago
from Hinesville, in Liberty county,
Ga. The feminine distiller of am
brosial neetar jis Margaret Van
Blount, alias Margaro Williams,
colored, and she is now resting be
hind the bars of the county jail
at Savannah.
The charge against the woman Is
that of illicit distilling and selling
of whiskey. As evidence of her
guilt four gallons of whiskey and
the still used were secured by the
officers and are held as evidence.
The still, though not a large one,
Is complete in every detail. It was
found in the house of the old ne
gress, whose age is given as 55 years.
Despite her advanced years, Mar
garet gave the Liberty county deputy
sheriff a run for his money before
he was able to overtake her. When
the negress caught sight of the of
ficer she lit out afoot, as if she wore
a Marathon runner. After a hot
chase she was taken in hand. She
was taken to the Hinesville jail for
safe keeping until the Federal au
thorities carried her to Savannah.
The place where the still was tak
en is near RIceboro. It is thought
that there is some man connected
with the running of the still, but
Margaret refuses to talk about this
side of the question and claims that
she alone was Interested in the still.
The ancient watch dog Is a mem
ber of the old guard.
