WATCH FOR METEORS.

A Shower of Stars VIII Likely Fall To-
Night From the Constellation Leo-How
One Community Failed to See the Last
Display.
Prof Keeler, Of the Observatory, said yes
terday that he had not noticed any display
of meteors, but there might be display on
Monday night They generally fall from
the 18th to the 18th, but this being leap year
1t might be day or two later. The shooting
btars are called Leonidos, because they ap-
pear to come from the constellation OF Leo.
which, in travelling in its orbit around the
sun, crosses the earth's path every 80 years.
when in this conjunction the meteors be-
come visible from the earth, although they
very seldom ach It, being so small that the
friction burns them up.
The last November shower occurred in
1855 A good story Is told in connection
with it. The display was expected on the
night of November I2, and the watchman at
the Sligo Iron Works on the Southside was
notified to ring the mill bell when the stars
commenced falling to awaken the people SO
they could witness the phenomenon. 1t did
not occur on that night, however, but the
following night. The watchman failed to
ring the bell, and when asked for an expla-
nation said: "Oh, is tnat why you wanted
the neighborhood wakened up?"
"Meteors have also gotten into the courts"
said the pro lessor. "Out In Iowa an aereolite
fell from the sky and was imbedded in the
earth three feet. A man who saw it fall dug
1t up and the owner OF the property sued
the finder. The lower court found in favor
of the owner of the ground and the Supreme
Court affirmed the verdict. Prof. Langley
jocosely mention the circumstance in his
new book that meteors flying wildly about
and landing promiscuously could not be
classed as wild game and therefore not the
property Of the finder"

off, tearing the little fellows hand and face

ENGLAND'S INTEREST

In the Result of American Elections Not
So Great as Many People Imagine-An
English Actor Who Seeks in Vain for
the Spirit of Clannishness.
E. S. Willard, the English actor, arrived
In the CITY last night. In speaking of the
recent election he said that although still
an Englishman he had been in America
now three years with a view at some time
IN the future CT becoming an American
citizen, but he was prone to confess that
he had not yet absolutely mastered the
technique OF American politics. He
thought Americans had an exaggerated idea
of the interest manifested in England over
the result of change of administration in
this country. While it was true that En-
gllsh manufacturers might in some particu-
lar branches be benefited by high or low
tariff, still it could not affect either way
the general prosperity of the country and
the masses are so engrossed in caring for
their own interests ana so Tar removed from
the scene of American politics that in the
natural order of things they could not
become very much taken up with matters
other than their own.
Speaking for himself, he said that no one
could have been received with more cordial
relations than had been extended him by
the people of this country, and he had
sought in vain for tie clannishness which he
had been told existed among the people.
Not only had tnev extended him hospitality
IN Its warmest form, but they had given
him most substantial evidence OF their
fTiendliness by greetings treble in form, SO
lar as numbers were concerned, wherever
he returned Take for instance" he said,
''your own city of Pittsburg. / came among
you a stranger only a season ago, and the
hearty welcome OF the first visit was, if
possible, made more enthusiastic when 1
came again a few weeks later. Since my
last visit here / have received numerous
letters from PiutsburGers, who have spoken
10 me in the kindest terms and extended
most emphatic invitations for personal
meetings. This cannot but be gratifying to
any stranger, particularly one in public
business. Nowhere do 1 look forward in
ny annual visits with more pleasure than to
Pittsburg."

Sergeant Lippincott Says the Cheyennes
and Arrapahoes Are Mad.
Thomas Lippincott, Sergeant of the Thir-

Fort Supply, 1. T., is registered at the Schlos-
ser. He came here to attend the Masonic
conclave that begins tomorrow. Mr. Lip
pincott recently returned from tour of
the Cheyenne and Arrapahoe country
and he predicts an uprising among the
two tribes before the winter is over. Rations
have been cut off from the reds to force
them to send their children to the Govern
ment schools. The Indians can't live. and
hunger is sure to drive them to marauding
and murder. Sergeant Lippincott, after an
experience of II years with the savages,
thinks that education is failure He claims
that, with a few exceptions the boys turned
out of the Carlisle schools are decent as long
as their new suits of clothes last, but when
they are worn out they go back to the
breech clout and blanket.
The Government intends to open up
another section of the Cherokee strip in a
short time. Mr.. Liprincott was present at
the Oklahoma rush, and he expects another
wild stampede of settlers for the new land.
