THE DILLON HEKALI
STItAXOKIl THAN FKTION
The subject was "full Irish potatoes."
A traveling man at the South-;
em Wholesale ft Distributing Company
was telling Mr. M. A. Stubbs of;
the sad experiences of some of his
friends who hud made failures with
the fall Irish potato. "One of my
friends," said the traveling man. "was,
encouraged by the glowing press accounts
of the wonderful possibilities'
of the fall Irish potato and he plant-'
ed a bushel. He cultivated them with
care, and when harvest time came
he gathered just exactly a bushel. Un-'
daunted he ordered the next fall from
a well known seed house a barrel of
Pitoro rru 1 *
ru?it%iiwcu i nes** nt? aiso
planted and cultivated with care, at'
the same time bragging to his friends
how well he was going to succeed
with his fall crop of Irish potatoes.!
He was convinced that heretofore the1
fault had been with the seed. The I
plants looked healthy and there was'
every promise of an abundant crop
of fresh fall tubers. When harvest
time came he gathered exactly a bar-'
rel. No sir, the fall Irish potato in
this section is a problem. Not one
crop out of ten succeeds."
"That reminds me," remarked Mr.
J. W. Edgerton, salesman at the
Wholesale & Distributing Company,j
* a story I heard some months ago, i
whk^ although stranger than fiction,
is said to be true. In one of the Flor-j
ida truck growing counties lives a
very aged man who has made truck-1
ing a life time business, lie has been;
very successful and even the infirmities
of age cannot keep him from giving
close personal attention to the
cultivating, gathering and marketing1
ot nis crops. His eye-sight is very
had, but from day to day as the crop
prows, is gathered and lnickcd ready)
for shipment he walks around among'
his hands and sees that everything is,
done according to Hoyle. One day,
while his Irish potatoes were being
packed for shipment he went around j
peering into the different barrels tO|
set. that the potatoes had been prop- i
erly graded and packed, and while
thus engaged his eye-glasses fell oft
and lodged in a barrel of potatoes.,
The old fellow was so deeply en-i
grossed in his work that he did not,
discover the loss of his glasses until
jsome time later in the day. The potatoes
went on to their destination.
The following winter was a very
Isevere one and all the Irish potato
jsred were killed. The old man was
| forced to order new seed from a firm
I in the north. His seed potatoes came
'in and according to custom the old !
| man wont through each barrel to see
jthat the seed were In proper condition.
Hp opened a barrel, plunged his
hand down into the tubers and there
were his eye-glasses."

Big Damage Suit Filed.
There was filed in the clerk's office
Monday u complaint in an action
against the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad
for damages to the amount of
!$ 100,000. The plaintiff in the case
'is Mrs. Nettie Henslee, wife of Dr.
iS. C. Henslee, who was struck and
seriously injured last fall by <i fast
freight at the Cleveland street cross-!
ling of the Coast Line. Mrs. Henslee
I was returning from the High School'
!building in an automobile when she
Iv as struck by the train. Her injuries
were of such a nature that she spent
Isc-veral months in a hospital, and at
times her condition was such that little
hope was entertained for her recovery.
She is still suffering from the
injuries sin* received. This is the largest
suit ever filed in the county. The
case is docketed for the fall term

Cambridge, Muss., June U7 Sever- ,
al weeks of intimacy with this solur
system have had such an effect on ,
the Pons-Winnecke comet that it ;
has changed its itinerarj and de- (
parted from its orbit, the Harvard ob- ,
sevatory announced today. !
The change in the comet's plans |
lias been caused by pluntary influ-'i
ences, and as a result the predicted -t
t leteorie showers are not now likely
10 fall. Solon I. Builey, acting direc- ,
tot of the observatory, asserted.
"As far as we have learned no ,
showers have yet occurred and it is
Unlikely that any will take place," i
Mr. Bailey said.
The comet he added, is now outV.ti
t il hniiMil ? /...?!?

The expected meteoric shower from ,
tin swish of (ho tail of th(. comet,'{
Pons-Winnecke, predicted by as- ,
trononiers for either last night or tonight,
was not visihl" to the naked
rye in Coliin\bia last night, despite
the eager watching of hundreds of
amateur observers. The comet,
which yesterday passed within 12.<">0,ooo
to 20.000.0ooo miles ot the
eatth, was not expected to he seen
without the aid of a fair telescope,
bein^r of approximately the fifth mag
nitude. The heavenly pyrotechnics
ate supposed to be causd by the
swish ot the comet's 2."00,000 mile
tail which is now strcamiiu toward
the earth, pushed away from the sun
as the comet has conic within the
r; nge of the sun's influence, which
causes the tail to flow away from the
flaming nucleus on the side opposite
the sun.
The comet was discovered by Jean
Louis Pons, a French astronomer, in
1S19. taking its name after its disPfivuror

locating 37 of these "tramps of the
sclar system." In I860 Winnecke.
another astronomer, rediscovered,
tHt. wanderer and immediately labeled
it Winnecke's comet. Pons-Winnecke,
as it is now known, is one of the
most frequent visitors to the sun's
bailiwick in thc universe, returning
every 5.67 years. Encko's comet, ulso
first discovered by Pons, is one of
the best known "hairy stars," being
especially remarkable for the
fact of its frequent returns, requiring
I only 3.2!? years to complete its orbit
out into space and back again into
the range of earth's telescopes.
Encke's has the shortest period
lamong known periodic comets, but
there tirt. at least four other of these
|celestial hoboes which are more frequent
visitors to the sun. Thes<. are:
Tom pel II which covers its orbit in
5:2S years; Tenipel-Swift, with a pe
riod of 5.51 years; Brorsen, which
returns every 5.52 years and De Vice
which has a period of 5.66, only oneone-hhndredth
of a year less than
the period of Pons?'Winnecke. which
had it not been affected hy its close
pass-ape to the earth and other planets
of the solar system, would have
l.een due to return npaiu in 1027.
Thrown off its orbit, as astronomers
think, it will now perhaps join tie
lepions of lost comets that after painiinp
records for punctual returns
have sudd< nly passed close to souk
planet to l>? thrown off their repular
orbits h-.ivinp the solar system, bound
for destinations unannounced. Jupit<
