HOT SHOT FROM
A BLUE SKY
STRANGE PHENOMENON VISITS
SANTA CRUZ - PELLETS OF
HOT SHOT FALL ON BEACH.

Santa Cruz, CAL. Jan. s.-A re-
markable phenomenon that has
caused wonder and CONSERVATION in
the neighborhood Of the Santa Cruz
beach was reported by Mrs. w. H.
Burns this morning, and was fully
coroborated by residents Of the
neighborhood. Mrs. Burns watched
the peculiar antics of barefoot chill
dren playing In front of her house.
They told her that the air was full
of electricity, and that hot shot was
falling from the clouds. She then
noticed a clatter on the housetop that
sounded like hail. She saw little
white threads of smoke rising from
the roof of the grandstand of the Ca
sine baseball grounds wherever
these little red hot metal globules
struck the damp boards. Every roof
in the vicinity showed the same pc
culiar condition.
The molten rain continued from
about 2 to o'clock in the afternoon
and varied in intensity. At times
| however, children who were bare
headed and unshod were compelled
| to take to cover. One boy carries {
burn on his finger as the result OF
being struck by one of these no
pellets.
One theory is that the molten rain
was due to passing meteor that hat
been disintegrated.
Mrs. Burns has saved few of the
little pellets. They are about the size
of No. shot and resemble lead.

Ed. Weekly: Strangely enough.
this has been a year of disaster to
the Southern farmer. To the
thoughtful planter it will be re-
membered and referred to for a
generation to come. The truth is,
we haven't had a week of real cot
ton weather during the entire sea
son and Mississippi is confronted
with the most serious problem since
the war. 1898 not excepted. If the
corn crop of the State was equally
divided. it wouldn't feed the mules
until March 1st. and the entire
state will fall far short of ZOO, 900
/ bales of cotton, so that no reason
able price paid for cotton can ease
matters up. Mark my prediction,
middling cotton will sell ON the
streets Of Aberdeen for Is cents
before the season is over, but the
/ trouble is, il won't do the pro-
ducer much good Many good
farmers became panic stricken and
sold at II cents, and worse still,
overestimated their crops. and by
the time they make the deficit
good will actually realize from 9 to
10 cents on their little all. What
could be more deplorable? Con-
ditions in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkan-
sas and Louisiana are even worse
than in Mississippi and there isn't
state in the cotton belt that will
approximate last years crop. If
the buyer thinks there will be any
real decline in cotton for once he
has made a mistake. If the man
Who made the cotton only knew
conditions as they actually exist
and would only hold to what he
has and pay no attention to lie or
15c cotton, but hold on, he might
be able to feed his wife and chill
dren another year, but if he acts
the fool and turns loose he may
prepare for sure enough hard
times. This is one time in our
history that it pays to be a negro.
The poor devil always has a living
crop or no crop, for be it remem-
bered, the Southern planter is the
only fool on earth that will mort
gage his all, wife and children
included, to raise money to feed
the negro. | sometimes almost
wish I was a good negro myself.
He is cursed and sometimes abused,
but he is the most independent
peasant on earth and is the least
hurt man among US when the
breakers come. And then the
Lord-that is, if the Lord had any
thing to do with him-gaye him a
most accommodating stomach. He
can eat 10 pounds of meat a week
and be lazy and trifing or do with
out any at all without much i'm
pr0vement. But seriously, to me
times are alarming. The great
Mississippi delta where | am now
writing didn't have 40 per cent of
a crop and many didn't have 20 per
cent and the storms Monday and
/ Monday night blew 10 per cent Of
this out and it now lies in the
mud.
But why should l complain. /
guess I am about the only man in
the State that can owe a debt and
never be asked for a cent. Whether
my creditors think me good or
that they are my good friends and
are trying to help me out Of the
hole, | can't tell, but there is one
thing I do know, that the effect Is
the same. j. NJ. PARCHMAN.
