Several who have long been looking for a glimpse of the comet, but were unsuccessful, were rewarded this .morning by the sight of the wanderer of the sky. It is quite likely that those who have hitherto. failed to catch a glimpse of it looked too late In the morning. At eight minutes to 3 the comet was very dim, the head appearing little more than a silvery pin-head, and would not haye been dis-tln-uished escort f or the t«i’ which was quite plain—a long beam of light shooting upward half across the lower quadrant of the eastern sky. At this time, Venus, the morning star, was just becoming visible through the tree tops. As the morning star arose her light eclipsed that of the comet and In twenty minutes or a half hour the tail had faded from sight. The head remained visible, however, but unless one had previously noted its position, by the tail, It would probably be taken for a star.
