ruchingS. A wide, fiat hat of biege-
colorcd straw went appropriately
enough with the dress, and was trimmed
with blue corn flowers, and roSettes Of
narrow blue velvet ribbons.
The small girl whose mother pro-
notes her to straw hats should be very
happy, for those of drawn silk or mus
lin are heavily burdcned with things
meant as adOrnmentS but usually far
enough from being ornamental. Silk
pOmponS are pretty when the fancy of
the trimmer can confne itself to any
thing so simple, but ostrich plumes
reckoned by the half dozen are more
common and are so mixed with flowers
and lace fullingS and ribbon puffings
that a hat top comes to look as If in
joke somebody had sat down and said:

A METEOR STORY
From British Columbia-HOw Could 1t
Possibly Have stopped the Train?

From British Columbia-How Could 1t
Possibly Have stopped the Train?
VICTORIA, Il. c., May S.-A large me-
teor passed over this section last even
ing, causing considerable CONSERVATION.
1t came from the northeast, and was
seen or heard all along the line OF the
railway from Rosenberg 10 Giliad, a dis
lance of about 100 miles.
About the time the meteor reached
this vicinity it exploded with a tremen-
dous report, like heavy thunder or the
discharge of cannon. AS the sky was
perfectly cloudless people imagined for
a brief time that it was boiler eXplo-
sion, and then it was attributed TO an
earthquake. Inquiry at the railway
telegraph station here elected the in
formation that it was a large meteor
and had been seen at different places
along the line.
The brakeman on freight train near
Ira, a small station twelve miles west OF
here, saw the meteor burst. He says
one OF the fragments, which appeared
to be about as large as his head, struck
the earth not more that 100 yards from
the railway track. The conclusion Of
the explosion was so great that it mo-
mentarily stopped the progress of the
train, this fact being noted by all the
trainmen. The conductor thought the
engineer had suddenly applied the air
brakes, and he ran to the door to see
what was the matter.
