Ballew aud Moore were recent corners in this

disappeared. Then came a strange rumbllnR
noise and also n shaking Of tho earth. The
houses In Candelarla were shaken as II by an

searchers began to end broken branches
which had been. knocked from trees by flying

The spectacle presented by the meteor when
