A Brilliant Meteor.

People upon the streets just before three
o'clock yesterday morning were startled
by binding flash of brilliant white light,
equaling in intensity strong fash Of light
ming in close proximity, and these who
glanced to the heavens quick enough
saw q most extraordinary meteor, in size
One-third the apparent diameter of the
moon, shooting across the sky from east to
west, about 800 north of the zenith. The
meteor had the peculiar white and cold
glitter of an electric light, and moved with
great velocity. It's course began in CASH
opeia, and passed through Cepheus, the
head of Urso Minor and the tail Of Urso
Major, when it disappeared, leaving be-
hind well marked trail Of white light,
which remained visible for over a minute,
gradually fading from view.

had gone Mr. Palmer took second look
at the check and dc cided it was bogus,
when he at once started out to enquire
as to its genuiness. Finding that this
party had obtained goods fraudulently
Mr.. Palmer Immediately proceeded to
Woodlands house and got the goods.
On leaving the house Woodland came
out with tears in his eyes and begged Of
him to leave the tlUurand butter as they
had not morsel to eat in the house,
Which Mr.. Palmer did. The check was
a sample from some house in New
York and was filled out by some mis-
cheviously inclined person in favor of
Woodland TO the amount of $40 81 and
signed Catchem Il Cheatem. Palmer
saws Woodland caught him but did not
cheat him. We think our citizens
have been imposed upon long enough by
this Woodland and 1t would be a good
scheme to make out another check in
favor of Woodland to catch him and
boot him out of town. lie has been III
the habit for some time past of going
TO respectable citizens and promising
to bring them wood and getting money
on the strength of it then failing to
bring the wood. Such citizens are UNI
desirable and the sooner they are root
ed out of town or made work and earn
an honest dollar. the better. lie is an
