FAILED TO APPEAR.
Heralded Shower of Shooting Stars Did
Not Keep Its Date,

MOI heep us Dhtes
A gorgeous, glittering and spectac-
ular celestial display was promised by
the astronomers for last night but
somehow failed to come off. 1t was
heralded that from Nov. IL to Nov. IL
the heavens would be ablaze with
shooting stars. such display as is
seen only once in SO years.
Watchers last night and the night
before saw a few shooting stars. but
there are lots of men in town who see
more stars every pay day than We're
in view last night.
The researches of Professor Newton
of New Haven and of Professor Ad-
ans of Cambridge, England, and 9TH
ers have demonstrated that there is
moving about the sun, as a center of
attraction, great bunch or group
of meteors. This group takes 33A
years to make complete circuit Its
orbit plane is inclined to the earth's
orbit and so related to it that the me-
teor group crosses the earth's orbit at
that place where the earth comes about
Nov 1916.
The story of the November meteors is
most interesting and instructive. The
astronomers have been able to work
out the life history of these meteors
from the observations made. In 1893
Humboldt saw from the Andes noun
there was another great meteoric dis
play. Many thousands fell in the
course of a few hours. Professor New
ton of New Haven investigated the
matter, hooked up old records of star
showers, and showed that there had
been a great number of star showers
occurring about 80 years apart and
coming in the fall of the year. He
prophesied that the next return would
be seen Nov. 1874, 1866 The shower
came as predicted.
An instructive treatise on meteors is
furnished the New York Sun by Pro
fessor ]. K. Rees of Columbia univer.
sity The astronomer, says Professor
Rees, knows that these shooting stars
are not really stars. Real stars are
giant and distant suns shining by theil
own light. They are, cold, dark bodies
which become hot and visible wher
they strike the air surrounding the
earth The velocity of their motion is
on the average, about 25 miles second
and so when they dash into the earth:
atmosphere the friction of the air pro
duces a temperature of many thou
sand degrees. The result is that. a:
these bodies are usually very small
they are completely evaporated ant
dissipated Sometimes quite large
bodies are able to resist this tremend
Gus FRACTIONAL heating and then the
residues reach the earth.

County Attorney Duffy Says Certificates

County Attorney Duffy Says Certificates
of Indebtedness Cannot Be Issued.
County Attorney Duffy had con-
ference Monday night with the nerl-
bers of the school board in regard to
the problem of keeping the schools
open after the money produced 1y the
regular levy is exhausted. FIe acNis-
ed the trustees that the proposed is
suance of certificates of indebtedness
as a means of raising money would be
illegal. His talk before the board
practically was the same as The ,lter-
view he gave the Standard recently.
In his opinion the only means of FRO
viding money is for he property cwn-
ers voluntarily to pay the Special tax
that has been declared illegal or donate
in some other manner rhe money to
run the schools. The discussion was
productive of nothing, as It was in
formal.
The Ursuline nuns have offered to
lease the Bryan school Building after
schools close, as they probably will
have to about Feb. l, but The beard
will not act on the proposition Until
it knows whether or not some means
will be found for keeping the schools
open. d..

COST OF THE SHIPS.
Fourteen Million Dollars the Total for
Last Year.

Washington, Nov. 14.-Aecording to
the annual report of the paymaster
general, it costs $13,9s3,17 to maintain
in commissions the ships in active SER
vice in the navy last year. For con-
struction of ships and purchases of
ready built ships, $9,964,456 was eX-
pended, while Sc. 754,974 was absorbed
in repairs to ships. The employment
of refrigerator ships for supplying
fresh meats to the naval vessels at
Manila is declared to have resulted
most satisfactorily. The three ships
now used in this service are not only
able to serve the needs of the navy,
but also to provide large quantities of
food for the army in the Philipplnes'
The only recommendation of impor-
lance made in the report look to the
extension of the navy of the army
privilege of supplying officers through
commissary stores and to the immedi-
ate filing up of the pay corps to its
lawful strength in order to meet the
heavy demands upon it.

THE DAUGHTERS.

The Kennesaw Chapter of the Daugh-
tiers Of the Confederacy held very in
teresting meeting on Monday after
noon at the Elmwood parlor. A good
deal of enthusiasm among the mem
bers and number of applications for
membership. Three delegates were
elected to represent the Chapter at

Shirer and Miss Mary Towers. 1t is
gratifying to note the constantly in
creasing interest in an organization
which has for its objects, educational,
memorial, literary, social and beneyo-
lent, to honor the memory of those
who served and those who fell in the
service of the Confederate States, and
to record the part taken by women as
well, in the untring efforts after the
war, in the reconstruction of the south,
to cherish the ties of friendship among
the members, and fulfill the duties of
sacred charity to the survivors of the
war and those dependent on them.

OPENING OF PRESBYTERIAN Lee.
TURE ROOM.

1t was raining heavily last Thursday
evening, but in spite of this fact, a
large number of people assembled in
the Lecture Room Tor ChapeD of the
Presby terrain church to participate
in the opening exercises of this build
ing devoted to special branch OF re-
ligious work The room was tastefully
decorated with palms and potted
plants; and placed at convenient inter-
walls, were tables which were to serve
for the material part of the entertain
ment.
Though as yet, the room and its ac-
cessories are in an incomplete condi-
ton, the occasion was one of attrac-
tiveness and beauty, the arc and in
candescent lights shedding their bril-
liant rays upon scene of animation
and enjoyment.
There was no set program, but Prof.
Freyer on the violin, and Misses Dy-
kers and Emma Wallace on the piano.
and Miss Wilson, who favored the au-
dience with several delightful vocal
solos, contributed to the intellectual
enjoyment of those present; and the
refreshments, consisting of ice cream,
cake, etc, were delicious in quality
and served in great abundance under
the supervision of Mrs. Pratt, Mrs. N.
q. Whitlock, Mrs. George Gober and
Mr.. w. 7. Mosher. Mr.. A. H. Legg as
'headwaiter," assisted by number of
young ladies, had charge of assigning
the guests to seats at the table,
A box was placed at convenient
spot Tor voluntary contributions, and
from this source was realized between
fifty and sixty dollars which will be de-
voted to furnishing the room, which is
model of convenience and adapta-
bility for the purposes intended. The
ladies parlor, with its beautiful carpet
presented by Mrs DIR. Seize, the kitch-
en-, with its large and complete range,
the gift of Mr.. H. MeiHert, and its
crockery, donated by Mrs. Nesbitt's
class, places the church, in this re-
spect, upon an equality with those in
large cities. The six class rooms are
very commodious. and the library
chamber and the other apartments on
the first floor can, by means of folding
doors, be thrown into one. A large
and handsome stove, the gift of Mr.. S.
K. Dick, serves, With another, to af-
ford heat.
Our Presby terrain friends are to be
congratulated on the possession of such
complete adjunct to their church
building and for the successful manner
in which they carried out its opening
exercises.
