teor shot over western Nevada and eastern

was followed by . low rumbling and shock
rs II Of an earthquake. It has now been
ascertained that the meteor struck about
five miles from a railway station called
Candelaria, in Esmeralda county, about
40 miles from here. People there who saw
.he meteor describe It as an immense body
OF fire with tail like . comet. As it
rushed through the air it made noise like
the sound Of a skyrocket just As it starts
upward. At Candelar;s many people were
greatly alarmed at the sudden appearance

Suddenly it seemed to burst in the air
and then the light disappeared. Then
came q strange rumb!:ng noise. and also
shaking Of the earth. Report here is
that houses in Candelar:a were shaken as
II by an earthquake. I, was soon learned
that the commOtiou was caused by a me
ieor. People have made wild estimates of
the weight of the meteor. some in their ex-
citement saying that it must have weighed
lO0, 600 tons to cause such shaking of the
earth. 4 party was organised and started
in search of the meteor
II Was Scattered All Around.
The searchers soon began to find broken
branches which had been knocked from the
trees by the flying fragments. sagebrush
torn up by the roots and holes in the earth
which had been gouged out BY pieces OF
meteor. Finally they came upon a huge
hole nearly 100 feet across, where the larger
portion had fallen. 1t istruck or a bare

To the murmuring slopes OF pine.
