THE METEOR.
What Some People Witnessed on Sunday
Evening.

What Some People Witnessed on Sunday
Evening.
A beautiful sight was witnessed on Sun.
day evening about O'Clock by those who
were lucky enough to have their attention
directed to the south. AS described by
those who saw it, a ball of fire, graphically
described by lady as twice the size of a
large water pail, appeared in the southern
sky coming from the west. The sun was
yet half an hour high, but the celestial
body was SO brilliant that it, for the mo-
ment, eclipsed the sun. Witnesses declared
that it was the most luminous body thew
ev.r looked on. Its course was a little
north OF west. As it shot across the
heavens it described an arc OF a circle in its
course, gradually descending as it neared
the earth. TO observers In town it seemed
to take q course that would plunge it into
the ground somewhere south of
the Silver Bow mill. It left be-
hind in its course a trail OF smoke that
remained in the atmosphere apparently five
minutes after the meteor's disap-
pearance when it gradually became lost to
view. When the meteor was apparently
about three hundred yards from the sur
lace OF the earth it seemed to burst and
was lost to view. This was followed by a
report which was succeeded by a rumbling
as OF an earthquake. DR.. Howard. who
visited q patient at the race track yester-
day, was told by Mr. Miller there that the
shock of the report had been severely felt
there, and that they at first thought one
oi ne maga zines had exploded. It is be.
Ieyed by many that pieces OF the celesti Il
visitor can be found somewhere in the val |
ey between the race track and Silver Bow
mill.
