* *1 V COMET MAY BRING (Oi METEORIC DISPLAY! * i I Astronomers Predict That Earth Will K! Pass Through Tail of the Heavenly Wanderer The State. On June 27 the earth will be fcreilt-! he ed to a special meteoric display due.se to the passage of Winnecke's comet, one of the periodic "tramps of the co solar system," now approachinji the co earth on its regular vis't to the sun's jar w.r.v.4- 4U/1 iiniirnrjo uM'ftcilinir In ci: jJrtl I Ui itlv Uiltt V VV Richard H. Sullivan, meteorologist at to the Columbia weather bureau. The comet makes its nearest approach to w; the sun todav and will be brightest fa * f at about the same time. ; st: On June 2(5 or 27 it will pass with- of in about 1,000.000 miles of a point on SF the earth's orbit, which the earth will th reach about two weeks later. This re will mean that the comet will pass ar within 12,000,000 and 20,000.000 ro * ' i i 11 miles of tne eann, wnicn is a smaii in distance as distances go in astronomy.' pi The earth is practically certain, as- w< tronomers think, io pass through the el comet's "tail"1 which streams behind ar i it, always turned away from the sun. re It is this trip through the comet's fir "tail," composed of gasses in highly ca attenuated form, that is. -upposcd to: provide earth dwellers with their, sc meteoric fireworks?quite spectacular fe perhaps but doubtless harmless?ex- <5n pected June 27. The meteors will kr radiate from a spot in the heavens "rJ near the constellation Bootes, which pa I is to be seen near the end of the Big Fi Dipper. I hi; The comet, unlike Halley's co-met, j through the tail of which the oarth probably p;#ssed in 1910, is not expec- i ^ ted to be visible to the naked eye,! a fairly powerful telescope being required to detect it, astronomers pre- vo diet, as it is to be of opproximately cr the sixth magnitude. | e>" I irv ? , J V, COTTON MILLS' ! ed BUSINESS BRISK ; . * i i Columbia, June 13.?Business with us the cotton mills of the state has im-improved to such an extent that the j mills, in many, cases, are not able to J keep up with orders, according to a1 statement issued to the press todayjin * " ' i a -r ' n!< by tne state department 01 ture, commerce and industry. The;"e statement'also shows the number of cotton mill workers employed in the! hi' state and says this is only slightly less : than a year ago. j !r)1 Busines's with the cotton mills has ; on increased in recent weeks, according; 1C{ to the statement. Of the 185 mills in the state, only 15 were shut down on i *h June 1, and a majority of these have th resumed operations since June 1, says i ?*" the statement, and adds: "It is nowjsh necessary for many of the mills to | fill orders from reserve stocks in %V{ storage." J00 The department of agriculture's re-:"r ports are gleaned by its mill iiv.-pec- j n( tors. "A superintendent told an in-!''-0 spector for the department/' says the!15 statement, "that his mill does not ex- 011 pect to reduce wages, as present conditions are satisfactory.''
