Willi dui;ii lci laiiiuj uiuv vuv hum dering monster has not yet failed to put in his appearance on timp, is uow attracting the attention of the American people and exciting a great deal of comment. A great many think that the appearance of the celestial stranger was responsible for the recent cold spell; others think or fear that the earth's passage through its tail will be disastrous to human life and things in general on this terrestrial globe, and all kinds of conjectures are rife among some the more superstitious ones as to its probable influence upon ' conditions here below and the iwful things-that will happen ere , it passes ou to other regions far remote from this hemisphere. The following facts regarding this great and hoary traveler, taken from the Durham Sun, will , be of benefit to every one inter?sted in his habits and hours of j disporting himself before the ' public gaze: 1 May 1, comet's distance from he earth 63,000,000 miles; close I :o Venus in the skies today. { May 6, comet rises 2:38 a. m; J ?arth crosses comet's path, 1 ? ? ? * ?:n Ko Mqit 9fi hnt.
