ton Of every town In this inland em-
pire, There Is Northern Pacific Fair
Circuit which consists OF the follow
ing cities: Salem, Seattle, North
Yakima, Spokane, Lewiston and walla
Walla; these fairs are considered all
over these United States as the big
district fairs Of the Pacific Northwest
and In consequence receive a vast
amount of advertising.
The railroads recognizing the Inn
portance OF the Lewiston Fair. make a
special rate OF one and one-third fare
for the round trip from all points In
the west including Portland and Sc
attic.
A special effort will be made this
year to advertise the fair through tn ,
eastern states. calling the attention Of
the people that at this fair they will
be able to form the correct opinion OF
the riches Of the Lewiston country,
from the products found there on ex-
hibition.
The management spends over $1,000
each year in advertising this event.
Outside Of purses paid for horseracing
the fair will pay many thousand dol-
lars In premiums on home products.
Every county should at once write
for a reservation OF space, and have
the products exhibited at the fair.

weight single grain. It has been esti-
mated that not less than 100000 enter
the earth's atmosphere every twenty-rour
hours. and few are visible any clear
night. Not brighter than the stars ordi-
narily, sometimes they burst into excep-
tional brilliancy and rival the most mag
nihcent planets In luminosity. Due to per-
sistency of vision they seem to leave long
shining trails of fire behind them. and, in
deed. the larger meteors bear O comet-like
radiance which Is visible at times for sew
eral minutes. On rare occasions the meteor
bursts asunder In midair like an exploding
shell. and for miles may be heard it's re-
verberating detonations.

is not strange then that the majority of

at once. and that meteors not exceeding

of fifty miles

headquarters of gang of bandits, of which
William Abbot. the parish clerk, was the
leader. He was a shoemaker by trade and
was not suspected of crime for many
years, although 1t is said that often when
he had no time to prepare himself for his
religious duties after night of marauding
he officiated at morning service with his
pistols under his gown. They still show a
remarkable old chest followed out of the
trunk of an old oak tree. heavily bound
with ornamental iron. and with an enOr
nous lock. intended for the communion
plate. in which Abbot used to preserve his
plumber. The church register contains the
following record:

demned at Northampton Azzize to loose
his life for Highway Robbery, but was

Near the altar is a square hole In the
wall through which the sacrament used
to be passed out to the lepers Of the par
ish In early days and nearby Is a window
protected by a shutter of oak, through
which persons SO afflicted could confess
their sins to the priests within without
polluting the sanctuary by their presence.
On the wall of the church Is a curious
tablet concentrating the fact that In
1874 John and Moses Hedges left a legacy,

pended In the purchase of eighteen loavss

combinations peculiar to meteorites occur
in the stony masses. serving as one of the
earmarks by which they are recognised
when not seen at the time Of their fall.
No new element has ever been found In
meteorite, but at least one-third of the
chemical elements known In the labora-
tory have been discovered
Distinguishing characteristics are no
ticed In the physical appearance as well
as the structure of meteorites. They are
covered with a blackish crust formed by
their surface melting during the passage
through the air. Pits and hollows scoop
ed in the surface of meteorite by the
fusing of the less refractory minerals
also form a distinct feature
One of the most famous historical me-
qeorites OF antiquity fell in Thrace in 4S6
B. c.. equaling two millstones In size.
Plutarch speaks of it. and as the stone of
Egos- Potamos it was long reverenced.
In the middle ages the stone of Eusis-
helm was very celebrated and became the
object of superstitious respect 1t fell In
1892 at Eusisheim. In Alsace, and while
fragments were taken to Paris and to
London. the principal mass weighing
more than 200 pounds; was suspended in
the choir of the local church.
For many years there was much skep-
ticism about meteorites. but at the pres
ent time every large museum contains
specimens of both stones and irons. One
Of the most remarkable collections has
been brought together in this city and is
exhibited at the National Museum. Com

huge mass of iron to New York from
Greenland. probably a meteorite, though
there is no record of its having fallen
from the sky. One Of the most amazing
rains of meteorites, attracting the atten-
ton of men Of science occurred at
L'Aigle. France, April 20. 1903. On that
occasion between 1900 and 5000 meteoric
stones were scattered over an area OF
about nine miles long by three miles

NOVEMBER METEORS
AND METEORITES

18th the November %.'ss, nights Il; comes
ing wit. the hope .s ., ssr9 s,:s:
for many years have provided
some entertainment in that line. but they
never reach the magnifcence of the autumn
display. Now that the earth Is again ap-
preaching the meteor belt the astronomers
and the public well are becoming eager
for a starry spectacle. Especially large
meteors have been observed during the
past month and IL Is not improbable that
a particularly fine display may occur about
November 13 or IA. 1t is about that time
that the earth's orbit cuts the elliptlcal
orbit of the famous meteoric swarm. the
Leonids. At the national observatory. be-
yond Georgetown Heights, there will be
special observers On duty during those
nights. The season of 1906 does not fall
year period. but II does round out the cycle
of the lost comet of Biela. and that term
has provided many fine sights. For years
the interest in the mysterious recurrence
of star showers has been growing and at
the present time the paths OF many of the
Grant space wanderers have geen mark
ed out.
Meteors. or, as they are more often call
ed. shooting stars, in the majority of in
stances do not reach the earth When by
reason OF size or a number of other condi-
dions some of the more massive bodies
pierce the atmospheric envelope OF the
earth and fall to the surface they are an
object of wonder and curiosity to every
: one. To the scientists these meteorites are
of especial interest

Among the other epitaphs is an enigma.
Four stones stand in row. exactly alike,
bearing inscriptions that have puzzled the
parish for nearly two centuries and for
which Mr.. East. the sexton and parish
clerk, could not offer any explanation. The
first reads follows:
Sarah. the daughter
Of J. Losgin, Wicker,
and Sarah. his wife.
born Nov. b. 1923.
died March g. 1879.
On the adjoining stone is the following:
Sarah, the daughter
OF j. IOggin. Wicker.
and Sarah, his wife.
born Oct. 8. 1870.
died March Z, 1870.
1t will be observed that in both of these
cases the death occurred several months
before the birth. The third stone bears
this inscriptions:
Sarah the daughter
OF j. LoZgin. Wicker.
and Sarah, his wife.
born Sept. 3D. 1871.
died the same day.
Lit would seem that the Rev. ]. Loggin, who
was wicker of Sulgrave at that period.
was either gentleman Of grim humor or
else he intended to furnish future genera
lions with a riddle. The fourth stone bears
this inscription:
Sarah. relict Of the above Rev. John,
LOggin, who departed this life Nov
the 3. 178z, aged 80 years.
