STELLAR TRAMP AGAIN APPEARS Celestial Nomad Onece More Visible After Being in Ob- seurity for Fourteen Years DISCOVERED IN —_— Dr. Brooks’ Comet Is Seen by Dr. Aitken From Lick Ob- servatory on Mount Hamilton i A o BERKELEY, Dec. 10.—A comet that was first observed fourteen years ago and disappeared after a brief visit has just repeated its perform- | ance in front of the big thirty-six inch telescope at Mount Hamilton. This heavenly tramp was discovered by Dr. Brooks in 1889, who kept track of it for two months until it wandered out | of sight. Since then the astronomers | have been looking for the nomad's return and recently the vigilance of Dr. Aitken of Lick Observatory was rewarded by a sight of it. The comet again remained within view for two | months, affording a good opportunity for studying its movements. The comet was not seen, apparently, any- where else during the present appari- tion, as the Lick observers were not informed by other observers of its dis- covery. Three other comets were seen at the same time this most interesting visi- tor was in the neighborhood of the earth, a full account of which appears in bulletin No. 49, now being issued 1889 from the observatory to correspond- ents. ———————— WILL FIGHT WATER | RATES CASE TO END City Council Decides, After Hearing Committee Report, to Carry For- | ward Appeal With Expedition. OAKLAND, Dec. 10.—The City decided to fight the water rates case to the end. This action was taken after Councilman A. H. Elliott, as a special committee of one, a report on a resolution recently adopted by the Council on motion of Councilman John L. Howard, calling for an investigation as to the status of the litigation. The principal point involved was whether the city would be gainer by continuing the appeal through the Supreme Court from Judge Hart's decision, which fixed a $7,.000,000 valuation on the Contra Costa Water Company’s plant for rate fixing purposes. After listening to Councilman Elli- ott the members of the Council came to the conclusion that should be carried forward with all expedition. It was argued that the public mind in Oakland was set upon a final judicial determination of the long fought suit, which was inaugu- rated by the Contra Costa Water Company in opposition te the aetion of the City Council of 1900 in cutting the water rates. % —_———— MISS VINCENT TESTIFIES AGAINST MR WILLIAMS to Her Aunt in $20,000 Slander Suit.

Miss Vincent is a music teacher, 22 that she left her aunt's home because the aunt made life generally miserable for her, and went to live with Mrs. Hall, who befriended her. The wrath of the aunt was then visited upon Mrs, Hall. The witness stated that her said the worst that could be said about her friend, who was entirely of the things attributed to her. defense will attempt to show that the things said were justified. 10.—Austria-Hungary independence.
