This was the fourth day OF the sem

trying to establish the character of Miss
Halliday.
After wordy encounter. Lawyer

The meteor was the big and brilliant
one which appeared in the southern
heavens Dec. 90 and so frightened the
negroes of South Carolina, who declared
that the shooting star wrote the word

Of six full moons; that 1t burst upon his

the cast, and passed across the sky at
the south, leaving IA wonderfully bright
streak fifty degrees long and lasting ten
minutes; then suddenly It began a zigzag
and finally burst into hundred pieces or
more.
1T was dead ahead and far up In the
sky when we first saw it," SAYS CathC-
rinc. 1t seemed TO be aimed straight
at the Yemassee, OF course we were
frightened. 1t was immense, and burned
like the sun. Suddenly II darted off to
the east, went about ffty degrees, and
then zigZaged like bolt Of lightning.
Then II broke into pieces like a gigantic
skyrocket, the balls OF fire flying in
every direction and dying away as they
fell. The magnificent spectacle began at
SO, and did not end till nearly 7l5
o'clock.

Supreme Court Decision InvaIidatiu
Indebtedness of Arizona Counties

Supreme Court Decision InvaIidating
Indebtedness of Arizona Counties.
PHGNIX (Ariz.), Nov. 13.-The ReDub-
Hcdn will publish tomorrow the sub
stance of recent decision by the Su-
preme Court of the United States which
invalidates the Territorial indebted ness.
amounting TO S750,000. The decision was
in the case of Charles Edward Lewis VS..
Pima County, to enforce the collection of
200 coupons attached TO 100 bonds issued
by the defendant county in 1888, under
an Act OF the Legislature of that year di-
recUing the Board of Supervisors to issue
bonds to the amount OF 100000 in favor
OF the Arizona Narrow Gauge Railroad.
The Legislature construed its authority
TO enact such a law in spite of the restric-
ton which confined its appropriation of
public money to the necessary admins
tration of its internal affairs"
Suit was brought against the county
three years ago, and the verdict was rem
dered for the defendant, Judge Sloan
holding that the legislation creating bonds
was special, and contrary to the Harrison
Act. The United States Supreme Court
takes no account of this view, but de-
ciares that the Legislature was restricted
by clause which confines it to this spe-
cies OF legislation only in favor of i'm
provements which facilitate the admins
tration of Internal affairs.
The decision closes in the following
language: 1--WE are compelled to hold that
the bonds in question create no obliga-
ton against the county which court of
law can enforce"
This decision affects an issue of 5000. 900
by Maricopa County in favor of the Mari
copa and Phoenix Railroad, and an issue
Of S250,000 by Yavapi County in favor of
the now defunct Prescott and Arizona
Ceutral
