An Escapa In tho Sky.

Once in awhile meteor plunging in
to the atmosphere of the earth is neither
consumed by the heat developed through
friction nor precipitated upon the surface
Of the globe, but pursues its way out
into open space again.
Its brief career within human ken may
be compared to that of comet travelling
In parabolic orbit, which, as if yielding
to a headlong curiosity, almost plunges
into the sun and then hastens away
again, never to return.
In July, 1899, one of these escaping
meteors was seen in Austria and Italy.
Careful computations based upon the
observations which were made in vari-
GUS places have shown that it was WISH
BILE along track In the upper air about
$50 miles in length. When at its nearest
point to the earth, 1t was elevated az
miles above the surface.
From this point it receded from the
earth, its elevation when last seen being
no less than 08 miles.
Although the resistance of the atmos-
phere was not sufficient to destroy the
motion of this strange visitor, which con-
tented itself with so brief glimpse Of
our globe, yet 1t carried the effects Of
that resistance out into space with it
and can never shake them off.
No matter what its previous course
may have been, the retardation that 1t
suffered during its passage through the
air sufficed to turn it into different di-
rection and to send it along another
path than that which it had been follow
ing,-Youth's Companion.
