STRANGE PHENOMENA.
Ten Meteors Resembling Comets
Seen in Birmingham.

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 49,
Strange phenomena, supposed to
be part of the tri-centenary
meteoric disturbance, was observed
here tonight between the hours
of 7 and 9 o'clock.
The fiery messengers made their
appearance directly overhead.
AS many as ten meteors were seen,
all of:which were in the nebulae
form, resembling comets. They
first appeared as patches
of light and at times would
glow fiery red and then fade
away, repeating this a number of
times before they finally disappear
ed. During the ]urii period the
central body could be easily
seen, the light radiating through
the entire mass which appeared to
be about 8 feet long and six inches
wide.
It was also observed while the
glow was on, that these strange
bodies appeared to be moving, the
agitation being easily distinguishes
BILE with the naked eye. The
entire zenith was overcast, although
outside the area the sly was clear.
Great crowds gathered at the
street corners and many were
appalled, at the strange sight. A
number of negroes resorted to
prayer as q means of protection
from the stars which they feared
would reach the earth.
