affairs IN the history OF our town took
place ia front Of the Court House, the
occasion being the wedding Of Ellis
vile and Laurel Our town, and In
Guiding many ladies, turned out in
force, and Laurel sent splendid
delegation. As the occasion is a
week old 1t is rather out OF date now,
but we will briefly touch upon the
principal events Capt. Hardy pre-
sided over the meeting in his accus-
toned graceful manner and introduced

MORE ABOUT The
METEOR.
Its Appearance Coincident
with an Electric Storm.

In another column We gave an nc
count Of the meteor that shot through
the sky about O'Clock on Thursday
night last. a singular thing about
the appearance Of this Heavenly visi-
tor Is that IL was followed BY a severe
electric storm, not only in Ellisville
butother parts Of the country. There
must be some connection between the
two.
People from the country were in
town Saturday and who saw this
comet, were talking about it. and
each one seems 10 have a different
idea about lbs appearance. They say
in some sections of the country great
fear sized upon the superstitious, and
many darkeys thought sure Judge
ment Day had come and began to
pray and shout Even intelligent
white farmers we're badly frightened.
The meteor travelled from east TO
west very rapidly, and some say a
green tail could be- plainly seen. One
farmer tells us that be was 10 the
open and had a cleat view Of the
spectacle and watched it from first
appearance until il sank out Of sight:
that at FIRST there was only one
meteor, but it had long tail
Quickly another meteor either sprang
from this one or joined L., and the
two united and went shooting through
through space, showing distinctly the
two tails.
All who observed IL said it illum-
mated the heavens and that il radiat-
ed enough light for one to read by.
The meteor before it divided was
described by one witness as being a
bali Of fire some twelve or fourteen
inches in diameter. All said it was
travelling ut high rate Of speed
and at a comparatively close distance
TO the earth, but above the clouds,
Scientists who observed this meteor
pronounced ID the finest thai has

was made up of thousands of parti- |
eles, which, when entering the earth
ignited and as the mass
sped across the horizon many of these
PARTICLES dropped of from the main

way to win by score Of 10 l. II APP
peared as If Dahlen's men were in for a
double beating. but they rallied sharply
in the ninth inning OF the second game

in the opening contest while Armando
Marsans stood forth with an amazing
catch in the second. Heinie Groh, once
with the Giants, had a great day at sec

out but Bill Fischer missed the third
strike. and Hobby started for first The
ball tore through Fischer's hands, and,
bounding off his shin guards. rolled OFT

for the winning run In the tenth.
In the second struggle Nap Rucker out
pitched Jack Rowan. The Georgian held
the Rhinelandors to five hits. but one of
these was triple by Dodge in the sec
