COMET WILL NOT COME WIT.131N '10,000,000 MLLES OI EARTIL CAMBRIDGE, Mass., 'June 7,- Winnick's cornet, the expected near approach of which to the earth' this month has caused much comment, will probably not conte within ten, million miles of us, according to in- formation received at the Harvard College observatory from astrono- mers in various parts of the world who are studying its motion closely. Tlie cornet will make its nearest approach to the sun on June 13, and will be at its brightest at abput 'the. same time. It- is doubtful, however, whether •it Twill be visible to the naked eye. 'Several astronomers pre- dict a meteoric shower on June 27 as a result of the comet's approach. Such showers have often taken place when the earth passed through the path of the comet, and are general- ly understood to - be caused by meteors which follow the cornet in a stream, and coming in contact with earth's atmosphere, rush into it, and are burned, .A. shower of this sort might be spectacular, but would un- doubtedly be harmless.
