June 25. Tbu com- mit tee of engineering and economic enporls which Is to advice as to the location of tbe new terminal lor lake traffic that will be required when, with the opening of the* new Welland canal. Port Colbuorno is replaced as the terminus of lake carriers, is expected to report in AiUguist. The scope of the inquiry is being somewhat amplified. In addition to recommending a terminal for the lake traffic the committee Is also to suggest the location of a bridge across the St. Lawrence to be ueed both for rail- way ami vehicular traffic. Three or four sites are available. One is at the Thousand Islands, another near Prescott and a third near Brockville 'Both questions will be dealt with In the report. When an American company last session sought au- thority lor a bridge at the Thous- and Islands, the -bill was rejected largely on rf presentations from the railway department that no action ought to be taken until the engine- er reported on the new lake ter- minal, an essential part of which will be a bridge across the St. Law- rence for the expeditious despatch of the grain to American ports. Meantime the ultimate choice for the lake terminus will be be- tween Prescott and Kingston. It is (believed that chances lavor the former. Pons-Winnecke to Make Ite Neareet Approach to Earth Tonight and Will Vanish After July 1 for Six Years. tew' NfcWI YORK, J\ine 25—After a restful cruise ot almost six years the Pons-Winnecke comet has ar- rived at a trystlng place 3,500 000 miles away to keep its date with Mother Earth. For the first time since its dis- covery in 1910, the comet will bo visible (o the naked eye tomorrow night. Not since 1910, when Hal- ley's comet made its celebrated ap- pearance, has such a body been in range of the unaided C*J. Pons-Winnecke will remain in sight of earth until July 1, when it will vanish Into the heavens to be gone! another fiv« years and eight months. It will make its nearest approach to the earth Sun- day. Altho its impending visit will bring the comet nearer the earth than ever before, it will still be about 14 1-2 times as far away as the moon. Only once before in history has a comet been closed to earth, and that wan in 1770, when Lexeli'a comet came within 1,100,000 miles, only six times the distance of the moon. At that time astronomers hardly dared to leave their telescopes fearing (hat the comet might col- lide with part of the system of Jup- iter. However, nothing happened, altho the comet traversed the or- bits of Jupiter's four small moons from eiuj to end. Whan the earth last aatr Bona- Winnecke In Juno, 1921, it was be- tween 13,000,000 and 14,000,000 miles in the sky. Through a five- inch telescope it looked only like an ordinary atar of the eighth mag- nitude except for a haze that en- circled It. The comet differs from most sim- ilar bodies in that it lacks a tall. It will appear to the naked eye as an extended nebulous body. After It has passed close to the earth Sunday, one possible effect will be a great meteor display, a trail of shooting stars left in its wake. The comet was discovered by the French astronomer Pons and was not seen again until 1808, wheu the German astronomer Winnecke de- tected It.
