PIECES OF A MErEOn FOUND.

-
Two Residents of bellevue Secure Some Fine
Specimens.
PITTsBuRou, Pa, Sept. 1.-Two residents
OF Bellevue, on the Fort Wayne railroad,
have in their possession two unusually
fine fragments Of meteor, which sailed
over the village a short time since. Sew
eral weeks ago Mr., Fay and Edward
Wright, Of Bellevue, were returning
home at night during q severe rain
and thunder storm. They were passing
along the brow ot the hill near Bellevue
overlooking the Ohio river, where their
attention was suddenly attracted by a
brilliant light in tho heavens north OF
them. The object was moving through
the air at q fearful velocity and scarcely
had their attention been attracted to
II, when It swept by them
about two hundred feet, as they
thought, over their heads. As the object
passed 30 near to them 1t seemed OF great
size and they at once concluded that 1t
was q meteor. II continued on It's course
moving in southerly direction until al
most directly over the Ohio river. It then
suddenly exploded and the red hot pieces
scattered in hundred directions.
The majority Of them struck
the water and sunk with hissing noise.
Several Of the fragments were seen to
alight on the sand bar that is but short
distance below the Davis Island dam.
The gentlemenke kepttheir knowledge ofthe
falling meteor TO themselves In the hope
that they would be able to find some Of
the pieces. They seatched next day, but
without success, as the river had risen
slightly, and the sand bar was almost com.
pletely submerged. Two daya ago the
river had fallen 90. low that the bar was
we'll up out Of the water again. The gen.
tlemen got a skiT, pulled across to the bar
aud diligently sOt to work In search
Of the celestial visitor. One portion
Of the bar had been slightly
washed away. Here they discovered
two Of the sunken pieces that had
been partially exposed by the washing
Of the flowing water. To verify their
belief that the pieces were a por-
tlon OF the meteor they were taken
To q scientist. He examined them and
said that there was no doubt but that
they were fragments from meteor and
that he had never before seen similar
specimens that had been 30 much con.
Bumed by the heat. The finding oil the
specimens only became generally known
to-day at Bellevue and the residents
are now planning to make a more
thorough search In the hope that some
Of the larger pieces may be unearthed,
The two pieces that were found were q
little larger than q brick and are Of q
brownish color, and their appearance In
dlcates that they had been subjected to
the most intense heat.

the earth suddenly gave way and thattht
engine first plunged down the Temporary
declivity, Il was then raised on the top o
the succeeding terrestrial undulation, Rnt
having reached the top Of the wave sud
den swsrving OF the force to the right and
left hurled the Inflated train down the
embankment. How 1t was done was
plainly indicated. In many places along
the track OF the South Carolina and North
Eastern Railroads and for spaces oI
several hundred yards in width, the
dreadful energy OF the earthquake was
expended In two particular ways. First
there were intervals OF q hundred yards
or more In which the track had the
appearance OF having been alternately
raised and depressed like line OF waves
frozen In their last position. The second
indication was where the force had osCil'
lated from east to west, bending the rails
In reverse curves, most OF them taking the
shape Of q single and others oil a double
letter 8. These latter accidents occurred
almost invariably at trestles and Culverts,
EXPERIENCE on THE TRAIN,
The train at the time Of the earthquake
was running along at the usual speed, aud
when about q mile south OF JeRburg it en-
Countefed a terrible experience, 1t was

guage OF one OF the exCursionists the train
appeared to have left the track, and was
going up into the air, This was the rising
wave, Suddenly 1t descended, and as it
rapidly fell 1t was flung first violently over
TO the east, the sides OF the car apparent

ing alternately. The utmost confusion pre-.
vailed, women and children shrieked with
dlsmay and the bravest heart quaied in
mOmentary expectancy OF more terrible
disaster. The Rev. Ellison CHANGED to be
on board and he lost no time In conveying
as best he could in the agony Of
the moment the best advice and counsel
he could offer. The train was then
taken back in the direction OF Jaiburg,
and on the way back the work Of tho
earthquake was terribly patent. The
train had actually passed over
one Of those serpentlne curves
already described and It is the simple
truth TO state that every soul on board
was saved solely through the interposition
OF divine providence.
