have already been stated. Palmer claimed he
paid S. and gave Rice a diamond for the COW.
Rice denied the diamond story. Judge Hubbard
asked the accused where he got the diamond and
Palmer stated that he found it in d yard in Mill
dale. The diamond plea was most too transpar
emit and Palmer was fined $40 and S17.52 COSTS

Der, whe gave what they chose and included, In

the means of the givers.

FAMOUS METEoRIC STONES.
The Largest Known Weighs SO. 600 Pounds
and was Found in Greenland.

A meteoric stone, which is described
by Pliny as being as large as wagon,
fell near Aegospotami in Asia Minor in
467 BIC. A bout A. D. 1900 stone weigh
ing 400 pounds, fell in Mexico and is
now in the Smithsonian Institution at
Washington. The largest meteoric mass
es on record were heard of first by Capt.
Ross, the Arctic explorer, through some
Esquimaux. These lay On the west coast
of Greenland and were subsequently
found by the Swedish exploring party of
1870. One of them, now in the Royal
Museum of Stockholm, weighs over 50,-
600 pounds and is the largest specimen
known.
Two remarkable meteorites have fallen
in Iowa within the past twenty years.
February IL, 1875, an exceedingly brill
liant meteor, in the form of an elongated
horse shoe was seen throughout region
of at least 400 miles in length and $50
in breadth, lying in Missouri and Iowa.
1t is described as without tail, but
having a flowing jacket of fame. De-
donations were heard SO violent as to
shake the earth and to jar the windows
like the shock of an earthquake" as it
fell about 1880 p. M, few miles east of
Marengo, Iowa. The ground for the
space ofsseyen miles in length by two to
four miles in breadth was strewn with
fragments of this meteor varying in
weight from few ounces to seventy-four
pounds.
On May 10, 1879, large and extraordi-
narily luminous meteor exploded with
terrific noise, followed at slight intervals
with less violent detonations, and struck
the earth in the edge Of asxravine near
Estherville, Emmett county, Iowa, pene-
trating to depth of fourteen feet. With
in two miles other fragments were
found, one of which weighed no pounds
and another 80 pounds. The principal
mass weighed 431 pounds All the dis
covered parts aggregated about $40
pounds. fhe one Of 10 pounds is now
in the cabinet of the State University of
Minnesota. The composition of this
aerolite is peculiar in many respects, but
as in nearly all aeroiites there is con-
siderable proportion of iron and nickel.
1t is generally held that meeors at one
time or another formed integral parts
of a. comet. The meteor enters the
earth's atmosphere from without with a
velocity relative to the earth that is
conlparabl with, the earth's velocity in
it's orbit, which is nineteen miles per
second. By the resistance it meets in
penetrating the air the light and the
other phenomena of the luminous train
are produced. Many small meteorites
are undou btedly consumed by this fire,
caused by friction, before they reach the
earth's surface. San Francisco Call.
