METEORIC DISPLAY FAILED TO
APPEAR.
Astronomers Now Say They Were
Year Ahead on Predictions.

Astronomers Now Say They Were Il
Year Ahead on Predictions.
For weeks the prophecy has been her
aided far and wide that on Sunday and
Monday nights 13th and 14th) there
would be a great meteoric display in the
heavens.
But there was not. Sunday night here
was cloudy but at other places it was
fair and those who watched said they
saw nothing. Then the prophets said,
"Io-morroW night, it viii be tomorrow
night But Monday night was like
unto Sunday night except that a few
stray shooting stars were to be seen.
There was nothing like the great dis
play which had been predicted. and for
which the gazers had been waiting FOX
several days.
The local astronomers have come to
the conclusion that the prediction was Il
little too early and that the meteoric
showers will not appear until November,
1899. They have decided not to be de
pressed by their present disappointment,
and to wait patiently for the passing of
the intervening twelve months.
The next time the earth crosses the
pathway of the meteorS if is said to he
practically certain that there will be as
striking Il display of natural fireworks a>
