Monster Meteor in Texas.

A Fort Worth, Texas, despatch
from Williams ranch says that a great
meteor fell in the outskirts of the
town, killing several head of cattle
and destroying the dwelling house OF
Martinez Garcia, a Mexican herdsman
who, with his family, consisting of a
Wlfe and five children, are buried be-
meath the ruins. In its descent the
meteor resembled a massive ball Of
lire, and the shock was similar
to that of an earthquake. 1t is
still hot and steaming. 1t
IS lmbedded in the earth probably 100
feet, and towers above the surface
about seventy feet, and will cover
about one acre of ground. The con
cusslon was terrific, nearly every win
dow in town being shattered. People
were hurled violently from their beds,
and goods in the storehouses were
thrown from the shelves. No lives
were lost as far as known except the
Mexican herdsman and his family,
although several buildings fell to the
ground. The cattle fled in terror in
every direction. The air was filled
with a sulPhurous gas. The widest
confusion prevailed, as it was a long
time before anybody could even conjec-
ture what it was. This is the largest
meteor that has ever fallen, and it has
already been visited by many people,
and will doubtless continue to attract
great attention for months to come. 1t
has occasioned great excitement, not
only here, but all over the surrounding
country.
