FALLING .METEORS.
Their Changing colors 40 They Pass
Through tho Atmosphere.

Through tho Atmosphere.
The earth's atmosphere is now be.
lieved to have three fairly distinct
strata, the first, extending up to about
forty-fve miles, having nitrogen as the
leading constituent, the second, with
its upper limit at about 125 miles, be-
ing chiefly hydrogen, and the third,
at a still greater height, consisting of
a very thin gas, which has been named
"geocoronium."
DR.: Alfred Wegener has attempted
to explain the striking differences of
color In meteors or shooting stars
and says that meteors coming from
outer space are not sufficiently heated
in the exceedingly light gas to become
luminous.
Their fall through the hydrogen lay
er causes them to become 1ncandescent,
and before they reach the lowest
stratum most Of them are completely
dtssipated. A few Of the largest, how
ever, penetrate tho nitrogen atmos-
phere, a very small number reaching
the earth's surface.
It is found that the deep falling me.
teors pass through three stages of
color-yellow-white, green and deep
red-and it is concluded that the green
is due to incandescence of the hydro
gen and the red to that of the nitro
gen.
Only the first stage is seen in the
quickly dissipated meteors, tho white,
yellow or sometimes robustness being
evidently the glow Of the meteor sub.

each morning and evening. The at
tendance so far as not been large, on
account Of rather bad weather. The
divine seems to be most earnest and
consecrated man. He has style pc
culiar to himself. He is no orator,
but speaks in a monotone without i'll
hection or emphasis, and at such a
rapid rate that it taxes his hearers to
keep the pace.
Just how long the meeting will con-
tinue, we are not advised. Consid-
cradle interest is manifested and it is
hoped much good will be done.

found relief, but complications set in
and he passed to the great beyond.
He was born and reared in this
county, being the son of Gen. John
H. Meeks, and a brother Of Judge M.
H. Meeks Of Nashville. He had been
preacher forty-three years. He was
a preacher boy, and devoted bis entire
life to the preaching Of the gospel as
expounded by the Christian church.
He was the author Of q number Of
religious works. At the time Of bis
death he was pastor Of the Clinton,
KY, church. and for number Of
years had made his home at Hum
boIdt, Tenn. he Is survived BY his
widow and one son and one daughter,

CATTLE DEHORNING
PAYING PROPOSITION

University OF Tennessee.)

.(By C. d. Lowe, Division of Extension.
University Of Tennessee.)
There is not single step In the
handling of live stock that returns .
bigger profit on the first cost than the
simple act of dehorning.
The presence OF horns on cattle on
sale at the large central markets gen.
orally means that those cattle will sell
for from Is cents to 25 cents per hun.
dred pounds less than otherwisel
There Is only one argument In favor
of horns and that is the value OF the
horn, as a by-product Of slaughter. for
the manufacture of buttons, etc.
Horns interfere greatly in the feed
lot with the development of uniform
bunch of cattle; they also are trouble
some In the car when shipping. In
fact, they serve no good purpose at
any time, on market animals.
Methods of doing away with horns
are simple. In the first place they
may be bred off. by using polled bull.
Practically all breeds Of cattle now
have polled strains.
Arresting the development Of the
horn, by application of caustic when
I calf is from three to seven days old Ia
another easy way.
Actual removal Of the horn with
clipper Of saw, II properly done In
early fall, will not affect the animal
greatly, but should be done whila
young, before horn has reached large
size. Care must be used to cut close
enough to the head to insure that no
stubs follow. A ring of hair should
come off with the horn.
Bleeding is many times quite exces-
sive in removal OF horns from mature
heavy horned animals. therefore, such
should be watched.
Il is usually not necessary to apply
antiseptics or ointments to the stumps
in this climate, IL operation is perform,
ed in cool season when flies are ab.
sent.

After about the fourth hour of this
sort Of stuff, one old lady's nose and
chin were seen to wobble towards
each other, and she jabbered some
thing that sounded idiotic. Then a
little girl took up the chatter in a
louder key; a thin, pale fellow that
looked like he had chills all his life,
took up the jabbering, and soon it
sounded like a great beehive, buzzing
from one end Of the room to the 9TH
er. The old lady sank to the floor,
and was soon followed by many 9TH
ers, while the preacher. now quite
hoarse from his long effort, went from
one to the other, putting his hands on
their heads and saying: That's right,
brother! that's right sister! Speak
out, and let the Holy Ghost have its
way with YEP "We-we-we, blab-blab,
blub-blub. wonk-wank, pip-pop-pup,"
went the crazy talk. while the thor
oughly hypnotized people rolled this
way and that on the floor. slowly, and
their eyes and lips necessarily wab-
bling. This scene was repeated sew
eral nights in succession, and three
women went crazy. One knelt down
in the main street of the little town
screaming and calling upon God tc
save it from destruction; another
gave her husband three days to get
the Holy Ghost or clear out, and an
other was found wandering in the
mountains with her babies, seeking
the New Jerusalem. Finally the au.
thorities of Eureka Springs gave pore

He was about to set half the towr

about how near he came to predicting
