Aid Society Rev. Henry B. Steelman,
the new pastor of the Baptist church
was rendered a reception last We'd
nesday evening at the commodious
and beautiful home of Mr.. and Mrs.
T. F. Bridges. In the course of the
evening a large concourse of people,
representing the various denomina-
tions, welcomed Pastor Steelman to
Caldwell and to its charging fellow
ship of Christian workers. Refresh
ments were served by a charming
group of Sunday school girls, and
the little daughters of Mr.. and Mrs.
Bridges entertained the company
with choice selections on the piano.
Mr.. Steelman expresses himself as
greatly pleased with the cordial spir-
it of the community. The growing
congregations, the spirit of unity and
cooperation in the church itself, and
the frequent accessions under the
new leadership, are full of promise
for the future of the Baptist work
in Caldwell.

Comet and TAIL
HIT Caldwell

A meteor was seen passing across
tn sky about two miles north of the
city early Sunday morning.
A party of young people were re-
turning home from an entertainment,
about 2 a. m, when they were start
led by brilliant light that appeared
in the sky overhead. Looking up
they saw an object the size of base
ball, very bright and high above
them; it moved across the sky toward
the southeast with great speed and a
loud Kissing noise, the light flashing
much brighter as it came nearer the
earth. AS the object got further
away from the astonished watchers
it became diminished and was finally
extinguished.
After the light had been extin-
guished perhaps five minutes, an
awful rumbling sound was heard,
like an explosion of giant powder.
1t was thought by those listening
that the object had then struck the
earth. Among the many who saw
this strange stectacle are: Roy Cox,
D. Brown, M. E. Holmes, Mrs. Breh-
men, Mr.. and Mrs. Gross and Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry Jones.

but Mr.. Banks did not like the ap-
pearance of the bill and soon asked
the men to take it back, which they
did without question. They were not
seen in the saloon afterward.
Attorney Scatterday moved to
strike out all this testimony on the
ground that it did not tend to con-
meet the defendants with the charge
upon which they were arrested, that
of obtaining money under false pre-
lenses from Louie Fong, Chinese
restaurant and rooming house keep
err, Attorney Van Duyn maintained
that the evidence was admissible, as
it proved a series of intents of de-
fraud, and therefore furnished sufi-
cient motive for the crime of which
they stand accused. The evidence
was admitted.
Alva Coulter, city marshal of Pay
cite, then took the stand and testified
to being called upon to arrest the
men at night, which he did. They
were standing in front of a saloon
