meteor which fell on Aug landed in the
{ p Of an immense elm on the farm of j..

tinued since then to work its way toward

T'he tree was twenty-four feet in cir

the first branches above the earth was lO5
feet, while the span OF the great limbs
overhung space LIS feet in diameter IL
was probably one OF the greatest elms In

The meteor burned off the top OF the
tree, and has now worked its way down
To within forty feet of the ground,
through the heart of the tree.
Mr.. Fowler chopped hole in the trunk
and took out about one half bushel of the
material a few days ago. IL was hot
when taken out, but soon cooled. The
color is lightish brown or drab, like

A NEW STAR.
Launching "A Formidable Movement to
Divide Kansas into Two states.


TOPEKA, Nov. 2l.-A movement has
been inaugurated in the Seventh con-
gressional district TO divide Kansas into
TWO states, each of which shall have an
area OF 200 miles square. IL is proposed
10 bring the question up IN tn lie -isla
ture, which cOnvenes in January. The
plan is To divide the state b. "A line run
ming north and south on the western
boundary of Jewell county and request
congress to concur in the action.
The bulk of the ealth and the popula-
tion of Kansas Is east uf the centre OF the
state, the western portion being COM
paratively new and sparsely settled coun-
try. In Eastern ktnsas crops have for
more than fifteen years been certain,
Nhile IN the West failures have occas-
sioualy occurred because OF severe
droughts.
1t is urged that climatic conditions and
tOpograp " of conntrv are SO different
that the same laws are not applicable o
both sections. Charles Harris, editor of
the Gardeu City Heral 1, is at the head OF
he division movement, and has goae
about It system atically. confident that
the lie gislature aud Congress will act
Iavorably.
The result of the recent elec ion is re-
spousible Tor the active steps being taken.
Western IA sas gave Republican ma
iority of 5000, which the eastern half OF
the state overc me, aud this gave the
state to the Populists by nearly 5000.
Western Kansas Is n heavy borrower, and
the election of the Popullst state ticket
will greatly interfere with its borrowing
mon,y.
The proposed new state has a popula-
tion sufficient to eutitle 1t to three mem.
bers OF Congress.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Mr. Cleveland is

and. as none of his intimate friends. such

rect. OF course no intimation Of the

But tho fact has leaked out that Mr..
Cleveland is going away, so as to be rid
OF callers, both reportorial aud political
aud Mrs Cleveland and Miss Ruth Cleve-
land will accompany him. Ills friends
aud the tall butler remain mute when
his destination is asked. but IL can be set
down as certain that Buzz lrd's Bay will
not be tine place. Buzzard's By is de
lightiul spot in summer but abominabie

ing rumors that ei her Lake ood, \. j.,

august presence of Mr.. Cleveland. New.

dauut the spirits Of the most persistent

will probably leave for North Carolina
either tomorrow or Thursday. How
long he will remain no one appears To
know.
His sole object in leaving New York is
TO get much ueeded rest and to avoid the
legions of callers, VINO adopt every known
expedient to get by his tail butler.
