T T PULLING A COMET'S TAIL Fathor Rigge Disconrses Conoerning Eome Nctoricus Celestials Tramps. BIELA'S LAST COMET VAGARIES OF Its Entity Destroyod and Tts alio Dis- pelled into n Flonting Film of C abits of Pirats +On November 27 the earth wiil' be due in a purtof itsorbit, which is strown with the debris from tho tail of Biela's comot,’ said Father Rigze of Creighton college, in speaking of tho astronomical situation that is now roceiving so much attention, “If the sorry remunants of aonce elorious comet kkeep th ment we may wit ness a magnificent display of falling” stars emanating from the neighborhood of Androm- or the Lady in the Chair, as thatis sely tho directinn in which tho orbit of the dead comot runs down tocut the ter- restrial track. *No dauger neod bo apprehended from tho fiery missiles. ‘Pheir motion is direct,or from west to east, and, consequently, as the carth travels in the samo direction at a speed of eighteen miles per sccend, and the cosmio dust 1s huried ut the retreating planet at the wlow rate of twelve miles par second, it will contiue its pyrotechinics to tho upper regions of the atmosphere. *Rtiela's ntful iistory, “Biela's history has been an eventful ote. ‘The comet was discovered in 182 by Bieln, an Avstrian ofticer, aud ten days later by the Frenct astronomer, Gambart, Both ob- sorvors computed its orbit. 1t was mnover visible to tae naksd oye, but in Sir John Herschel's great refloctor it was described as & conspicuous nebula of such tenuity that a koot of minute stars of tho seventeenth magnitude was visivle through the comet. Yet the depth of cometary matter through which such faint stollar roys penctrated u dimmed was, near the contral parts of the globo, not loss than 50,000 miles. First of the Calamity “lt s curious that this scemingly harmloss pody gave occasion to the first of the since numerous ‘comet scares.’ Certain caleulas tions published by Olbors showed that on Octobe nsidorable portion of its nobulous lly sweep over the 8pot which, o month later, would be occupied by thocarth. It needed no more to sov the poputar mind in o forment. “And yet tho two bodies woro never r within 15,000,000 miles of each other. At ts next roturn in 1539, it falled to bo observed, butit amuly compensated astronomers by apuearing doublo in IS#5. The hairy star had actually split into two. T'ho twin com ets traveled along side by swe for more than four months, on parallel tracks, w5 tranquilly a3 if nothing unuswal had hap- penca; but” interaally both were intenscly active, each developing a bright nucleus and suort tail, although theie siro had exbibited neither of theso signs of cometary vitality Each aiternatcly outshone the othor, and threw out an arc light across the inter veniog space. Once more, in Septembor, 1852, the cometary pair were dotected by Father Secchi wandering away in divorgent thon vanished shortly afterwards, and never eince veon scen. Erilliant Meteoric Shower. omets. Scarcoly 4 on No- 3 and tho earth was passing the old track of the lost comet whon sho cn- countered a wonderful meteoric shower. As Miss ¢lorka cxpressos it, ‘it became evi- dent that Biela's comet was shocding over us the pulverized products of its disintogra- ion. The wmoteors camo in volleys from the foot of tho chaired ludy, their numbers beiug so great that Father Denza called it u ‘renl rain of fire,” not o few fireballs equal- ingthe moon iu diamoter. The spectaclo was magmficent. 1t continued uninterruy edly from suudown tll miduight. Now it oceurred to Prosessor Kiinkarfues, who had watched the meceoric fusillado fram his astronouwical pereb at CGiotiingen. that the old comet might bo lying in ambush somewhere in the vicivity. He accoraingly wired to Mr. Pogsou, the Madras astronomer, ‘Biela touched oarth Novewbe search near Theta Coutatri.’ Sure enough, the comot was there, just in the indicated position. In appearance 1t might Lave passed woll onough for one of tho Bicia twins. It bad ao tail, buta de- cided nucleus. Tho next day a short tail was porcontible, but overeast skies supervened and it has nover since boon seen. Its 1den- tity accordingly remained in doubt, as it might have been a third limb torn from the pareut body. Thirteen Year Afinir, Yot the relics of Biela's comet keop on completing the accustomed route twice in thirteen yo On the same day and month of 1885 astronomers wers on the alert for a fenowal of the meteoric show of 1872, and thov were not disap- pointed. Tho meteors wore both larger and more numerous, being estimated in the densest part of the drift at 75,000 per hour. Yet tnese little bodios wero found by Prof, Newton of Now Haven to be traveling twenty miles apart, thus presenting the daz- zling effect of 8 numerous throng without jostling or confusion. Kor six hours the earth moved right throuxh the compact con- tral battalion 100,000 miles in depth, with skirmishers thrown out to uearly 1,000,000 mwiles vn eitherside, ana you not a' s sohd projectile foll upon”the earth, oughtto revive our spirits for the coming fray. The conclusion seoms obvious that those meteors are formed of veory soft wa- torials which expand while incandesceut and are inmediately cramoled and aissipatea luto exiguous dust. Superstivious Fears of a Collision, “Tn view of the fact that wo encouuter traiug of motcors, or the shattored fragments of effute comets, overy night, and are not eyen awaro of 1ho collislon, we cannot sup- press a smile at tho fears creat-d in former years by tho advent of u new comer. 1ts ap- Dearauce was supposod to forebodo waes and postilonce, earthquakes and possiole destruc- tion from a collision, Tho briliant comet of 1080 threw Europo 1nto such consternation that n medal was struck to quiet the appre- hension and bearing tho inscrintion, *I'ho Star Throatens Evil Things; Trust' Only; God Will Turn Them to Good.” In 1816 & report was current of the approaching end of tne world, July 15, was the dato fixed for the fatal event. A I'rench wit quieted the minds by writing *As it1s now muny conturies since a collision of the earth with a comet has taken place, and as with time tho possibility increases, it seews 1o mo prudent Lo set about managing our affairs, for, in 4,000 or 4.000 years at tho latest, we shall seo anew representation of Lbis groeat tra; A slmilur foar Lok possession of poople's aninds at the first caleulated return of Bielu's comel in 1832, and the return of the comet of Charlos V In 1858, whon, accOraing to a fan- o prediotion, the worid was to have been oyed by “five, burnt by the terrible comot. But there'is no stronger argument to convinca nooplo than plaiu facts. Now in 1561 the earth passed through 800,000 miles of o comet’s tail, and no per- coptiblo effoct was produced by the meetng of tho flimsy appendage.

MAs ards the possibility of a coll'sion with a comet, it is to L2 admitted that such an evont is possible, In fact, 1l e earth lasts loug enough, it is practically sure to Lappen; for thero are several voinets' orhiis which pass nearer to ths earth's orbit than whe scmi-dinmeter of the comet's hewa, and At some Lime the earth aud comet will vertainly come tegother, 0 encounters, bowover, will be very rare. 11 we accopt the ostimate of WBabinet, they will ocour about once ia 15,000,000 years. But what theu would happeni ‘Sither 1ho force or womentum of the comet would be equal to Ahat of tia carth, or it would bo grester or less. 1 equal, we shouid do it as amuch arm @s it would do ud, acilon eud reaction belug qual | s f greater, it would take us alovg with it; if Tess, we should take it along with us, If1he theory propounded by Sohiapa- reili—namely, that comoats are heaps of stones hold together by gravitation—is true, every- thing depends on the size of the stones, 1f they woigh tons, the bombardment ex- verienced by the earth whon struck would be a serious matter, bat it would be con- fined 10 oue part of the earth, and tho coles lial stones peited at us might be forrued of gold and diamonds, 11, as seems more likely, they are for the most part smaller than pin- heads, the result would besimply & moteoric showsr. Wo have already said that such an accurrenca took place in 1861 and 1872, The meeting was absolutely inoffensive, “As regards the effect of the fall of a comet into the sun, it is undoubtedly possi- ble that a comet may enter our solar system from without, so accuratoly aimed that it will hit the sun. In that case tho cometary stones would biry themselves in tho solar atmosphere, and -~ being vaporized would | simply expand, siightly adding to the storo of the sun’s potenvial energy about as much at us it ordinarily expends in a few hours, Makeup of Comets, “Any person who witl reflact but a mo ment upon the physical coostitutio ot comots will find no cause of anprehensi in a friondly visit from a ‘bairy star.’ Many | reasons lead us 10 suppose that tho head of a comet is a swarm of meteoric stones widely saparated, though whether these iron stoves are many feet in diameter, or only a few inches, or only a few thousandths of an inch, like varticles of dust, no_ono can say. la fact, it now seoms 'quito likely that tho | groatest portion of n comet's mass is mado up of such particles of solid matter, carrying with thom a certain quantity of euveloping gas, Thetilis simply on_ assemblage of comietary dust particles repelled by both the comet und tho sun, ‘T'ails are of three t namely, long, straight raye probably com- posed of hydrogen, tho-curved, plutelike train of hydrocarvon gas, aud' the short, stubby brushes of iron vapor. “If ono nas any diMiculty in reconc! ing tho thoory of stono particles with the layers or talls of vapor, he must remem- ber that vaporous inasses such as clouds, fog | and smoke avo really composea of winuto, separate particios of water or solid caroon. Hence it will appoar that the tail which wo 500 0n 000 evening is not absolutely the same | to the oppos we saw tho evenng before, W portion of the lattor having beon dissipatod whilo new matter has taken its place, as with tho stroam of smoke from a chimney. “Phere has been much discussion whether | comots shine by light reflected or_intrinsic, | That their light must in some way b derived from the sun seems ovident from the fluctua- tions of brillianey they undergo as thoy proach and recedo from the sun, and finaily disappenr from sheer faintness. 1f a comet stione with its own i dant light, like u star, it would ouly grow smaller as it receded from tho earth, not fainter. Bat whilo the light of a comet is undoubtedly reflected suulight, It is not so ultogether. Kor it often varies greatly and almost cariciously, blaz- ing out for an evening with un- wonted splendor and then collapsing, liko & wind-reader, far below tho normal state. indicates an intrinsic light-evolving action, akin to phosphoroscence, or, more correctly, electricity, which is excited be- twoen tho cometary particles by the sun's | iufluence. Comets arc not then, it thus scems, bodies incandescent through solar heat, like glowing coals on the rato, but, a3 Prof. Nowton expresses it, dbanks,’ that {s, swarms of solid particles of unkuown size, glowing by electricity and moviug in a gascous envelope. And this 15 compatiblo with a relatively low temp:ratura. [n part, the gaseous spactrum of comets is _certainly due to reflectod suntight; in part, 1tis likely, to the ignition of minute solid particles, The Origin of Comots. “Having thus _aisposed of the interesting question of the nature aud light of comets, by way of corolusion, saya word on origin of comets. It is obvious tnat thoso h move in parabolic orbits cannot be s of our solar family. But as to Biela aud other periodic visitors it 15 a question whether they aro nativeborn or merely naturalized. Did they originate it our sys- tem or aro they capt When a comot outers tho system from an_infinite distance and comes uear o largo planet, the ciances are that it will deviate from its course to find iwself numberod among tho _satellites of tho planet. In this mabner the comet Biela was added to tho retinue of Jupiter. “In a similar manncr Noptuno has cap- tured six, Uranus three; Saturn stands re- sponsiblo for two nnd colossal Jovo has a larga family of sixteen. If Proc- tor's theol were correct that the comets of Jupiter's family onco formed a portion of its mass and were at somo timo ignominiously ejected with a velocity suf- ficient 1o set thom free in_spaco, we might account for the roving disposition of tho Biolas ond look upon their revorses as tho necessary conscquences of early iujuries and o shattored coustitution, Natirally the comets are free and move in prodigiously long cllipses. This being so it follows that their condilion previous to bemng attracted by the sun or kiduaped by planct- ary pirates, was one of relative ropose, “'ioso were haleyon days when they shaved the wovemeut of translation through space of the solar family. The ‘cosmical current,’ which boars us with our sun to an unknown goal 1n spacc, carries also with it nobulous masses of undefined extent at an undefined distance, Detached fragments, continually cutering tho sphere of the sun's attraction, flit across onr skies under the formn of comets, Thoso ave, however, so far stangers to our system that thoy tool fermation, ‘They are, perhaps, survivais of o state of things aunterior to our solar family, when the chaos from which sun and plauots wore, by divino dovree, subsequoutly to emerke, iad nov as yer' separately.
