Woman Saved Up Che Meteors.

Woman Saved Up Che Meteors.
 The meteorites were first discovered by cowboys. who knew absolutely nothing of their value. One day Kim berly's wife was reading of fallen meteors and their value. She believed the stony substances would be valua- ble, but the husband refused to listen to her and repeatedly bartered the meteorites off for meager offering. Just as often as Kimberly bartered tn 3 meteorites his wife managed to get possession of them. although ridiculed by her neighbors and members of her family. By the time Kimberly had sold the first 2.0O0 pounds and other masses to Dr. Snow he had more mon- ey to put in the bank than his crops had netted him In several years
 An incident demonstrating the great desire of collectors for these meteorites occurred when Dr. Snow bought 21s pounder from a farmer named Evans in Brenham. He found Evans on his farm, but the meteorite was in town at a grocery store. On the way to town Dr. Snow closed the deal where by he gave Evans $500 for his prize. When they reached Brenham a tele- gram was awaiting Evans from Mir Kunitz, of New York. who mad offered $1,100 for the. meteorite. The agent threatened litigation, but Dr. Snow A. nally convinced him that the $500 sale was closed before the message had any effect Dr. Snow was offered Sl,. 300 fo this 21S-pound meteorite by the directors of the Austrian Museum iu Vienna, but refused. and still has 1t in his collection In the University Mus | cum.
 Dr. Snow received a letter a year ago from Klmberly's son. He had been making a meager living by day la bor and raising hogs. While feeding his hogs his foot hit a hard substance nearly buried under ground.
 When he found it was a meteorite he wired pr. Snow and the sale was immediately made whereby pr. Snow bought the stone composition, which weighed 16S pounds. It Is now in the American National Museum in New York City.

Players and Vagabonds. Miss Viola Roseboro's best work. is in this VOL
 ume of short stories.
 Miss Roseboro's stories are not Of the
 fad sort of today. the story that IS slightly risaue Nor is it the French short story. Fascinating is the French little tale. the story of a mood, the tale Of a minute!
 Hers is more the story of yesterday the story that was in vogue decade ago. The character sketch, the study of unique personalities that live ou' their lives much as work-a-day people do without great events, and with or dnary emotions.
 There hath nothing befallen them but what is common to all men," Rut these are the most pleasant sort of people to dwell with, and with peo-
 pie like these Miss Roseboro makes 1t possible for us to spend some pleasant
 hours.
 where the Ways Crossed" is well
 named. Miss Roseboro has given the very crisscross pattern of several lines
 in New Yorks whirl. This is life. But
 sometimes life Is a bore. Miss Rose boro shows her skill In character de- picting in that she holds our interest
 with a plot as disjointed as that of our
 own days.
 The girl who was good natured by nature and talkative from drink who shows up on the first page is mere incident. One meets and passes such in Madison Square every day. She drifts across Harry Dorley's way
 and makes a suggestion that sends him another way. We hear no more of her.

 The painter Aiken is villain, but after all maybe not so black" Mary is impossible and uninterest- | ing, she goes the way of all womer and marries because she is loved and
 therefore supposes she loves. Then Dorly who had nobly intended | to die the knave accidently dies the hero-and Is glad of it.
 And Miss Arnott Is by his bedside
 and promises the dying boy: You've loved me-loved me like this; 1t shall
 be as if I had loved you, too" But through a meandering plot that | is not plot, the writer has woven a hundred delicate touches and fine bits
 of denounment caught up by keen l observation.
 'rrhe Embroidered Robe" Is an even
 more delicious bit of life. Of the life that is hidden about in hooks of fur

 of the very interesting group. For a fine example of Miss Roseboro' s very marked powers of clear and de- l lightful character r-sketching, the in- | troduction of Miss Bonner's mother will
 serve well: People still looked at

 credit of their taste; 1t was a tribute to a perfection of gentle beauty and gentle bearing that with uncommon felicity defeated its own essential ex- pression and was conspicuous. Time had seemed only to increase her most characteristic charms as she began to
