THAT METEOR AGAIN.
A Sea Captain Saw 1t, as Big as Five
Full Moons.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
New York, Jan. 15.7-Capt.. Mckee and
Chief Officer Catherine, of the steamship
Yemassee, that arrived to-day from
Charleston, S. c., tell big sea story of a
monster meteor. The captain declares
that the meteor was as big as five full
moons, while the chief officer makes it
one moon larger. They agree as to every
thing else concerning the meteor, which,
if all they tell about it be true, is the
most extraordinary meteor ever let loose
to astonish mortals
THE meteor was dead ahead and far
up in the heavens when we first saw it
on the morning of Dec. 90" said Chief
Oficer Catherie, land seemed to be com
ing straight for the ship. Thought iudg-
ment day had come sure, and that some
planet was about to strike the earth. 1t
was as big as six full moons, and burned
like the sun. Suddenly it shot off TO the
east, followed by great streak of fire
When ] saw it was not going to strike the
ship felt some relief. 1t frightened me
badly, 1 admit. After going about so
deg. 10 the east it began to take zig
gag course. - 1t darted about the heavens
at great speed, just as a bolt of lightning
would. 1t continued to go about in that
way for a long time At last it burst into
more than hundred pieces, like a sky
rocket. The small fire balls were shot all
over the heavens in every direction, and
gradually died away as the fire does from
an exploded rocket. l pulled out my
watch when the meteor-or whatever it
waS-began its zigzag course, and the dis
play lasted more than half an hour The
captain and l both watched the thing
from the time it started until the great
streaks of fire it left in its wake gradu-
ally died out" This is what the log of
the Yemassee reports: December 20,
1898, GAO a. m.-Fifteen miles south of
Charleston bar At this time an i'm
mense meteor fell bearing about east,
leaving wonderfully bright streak of
light 80 degrees long, perfectly
straight, lasting about ten minutes. The
streak changed to a zigzag, lasting about
the same length OF time. 1T finally scat
tered The phenomena lasted a half an
hour"

Negotiations are still proceeding for
the establishment of the free land COL

to attempt, on scale never before con-
templated, to carry out the idea of So
cialist community. The district selected
is on the Lykipia plateau, near Mount

An offer has been made to the British
foreign Office to purchase a large tract
on the condition that. while the commu-
nifty shall be subject to the general laws
which the British government may i'm
pose, it shall have absolute freedom to
regulate it's internal affairs on q social
istic basis. It is said that the British
government is averse to giving absolute
rights of ownership in the land, but the
organizers are apparently in earnest.
They have secured as leader Herr Den

A Modern Samson.

Cherokee county, Ala, has muscular
prodigy. His name is Joe CLANCY, and
he weighs only $50 pounds. He was ar
rested recently and incarcerated in the
Jail at Centre charged with burglarizing
a store at Leesburg, Ala. AS soon as
they put him in jail he broke the door
open and came out. They then chained
him supposedly fast to the floor, and
powerful chain was locked close about
his neck and fastened to the floor, but
before the jailer could arise to survey the
job the prisoner had bursted the chains
asunder and stood erect also. Some of
his feats of skill and strength are burst
ing dungeon locks, pulling chains apart,
drawing iron spikes from the walls and
breaking bars. It is said he can break
the bars Of the dungeon windows as
easily as if they were toothpicks and can
pull heavy chain in twain with the
ease that an ordinary man can silken

know case where the course of true
love has run crooked as a rams horn.
Miss Blank, graduate Of the Bellevue
training school, was wooed and won by
a gay young doctor. He took a mort
gage on her affections in the form Of an
engagement contract and sailed away
to complete his education at the medical
schools abroad. This was two years
ago last September, and for year and a
day after his departure loves rivulet
ran smoothly.
Then the serpent entered their Eden.
The girl lost her lovers address in q fire
which consumed her abode so quickly
that she escaped only with her life and
her nightgown. His letters continued to
come regularly for number of weeks.
At length he began to express SURPRISE
that she had not written. Then came re-
proaches, then anger, then anxiety and
finally despair. In none OF his COMMIT uni
cations, however, did he think to give
his address. The girl was nearly frantic.

PARIS GIGANTIC HOAX.
That Million Dollars For q Year In q Tomb
Story Exploded.

That Million Dollars For q Year In q Tomb
Story Exploded.
A gigantic hoax with the longest run
on record is at last exposed in the Paris
papers. In 1890 an advertisement ap-
peared stating that deceased Russian
princess left million francs to be given
to the person who would remain one
year and a day in the little chapel over
her tomb in Pere la Chaise and watch
her body, which was in glass coffin.
The watcher should see nobody during
the time he or she remained in the chapel
and should not even speak to the servant
that would be employed to supply the
refreshments. Candidates were politely
requested to communicate with the su-
perintendent of the cemetery. 49,,
The unfortunate functionary soon
found himself deluged with letters from
fools in all parts of the world, including
one journalist belonging to a news
agency of Chicago, who declared himself
ready to take the job, as it seemed far
preferable to the ''killing work of q
newsgatherer. Paragraphs began to
appear in the papers stating that several
intrepid watchers had already abandoned
the task on account of the uneasiness Of
the dead princess. In other words, she
had disagreeable habit of getting out
Of her glass coffin and walking about in
her shroud. Then the wag of wags raised
the ante. Five million was the sum next
offered through the press. Letters poured
with increased volume upon the unfor-
tunate superintendent, some of them
from women. Nearly every town in the
United States and Canada was ably rep.
resented among the many men of letters
who Contributed to this wondrous pile.
It is almost too bad to clip the wings
of canvasback canard that flew so Ions
and so far. But it has turned out, just
in time to save the superintendent Of
Pere la Chaise from going crazy, thai
the Russian princess, the little glass cot
fir and the generous bequest never ex
listed, and that the tomb which was sup
posed to contain her interesting and rest
less remains really belongs to French
family named De Beaujour.-Paris Cor

Couldn't See the Fun.

An infants coffin, addressed to Mrs.
M. Simpkins, Ithaca, N. Y, was the
CHASTITY present shipped from Atlantic
City by local merchant as a joke and
present. ...., 49,.
The express company refused to accept
the suspicious looking affair until the
joker explained that it only contained
fruits and wines. Even this statement
did not satisfy the agent, and not until
the contents were exposed would he &C
cept the package. Then it was receipted
for and forwarded, and the joke became
known about town. The odd part of it
is that no one who heard of it could see
any fun in such doings. New York
