A METEOR Seen
LARGE FALLING STAR SEEN
LAST NIGHT-LASTED NEAR
LY A MINUTE.

A meteor flashed suddenly into
view of Madisonites who CHANGED to
be in the open air at about 10 O'Clock
last night. The in~candescent body
was first sighted at a point high
overhead near the zenith, falling to-
ward the southeast, and disappearing
followed by a long streamer or tail.
The color ranged from white at the
head, through red TO a dark red glow
toward the latter end of the tail.
The light was sufficient to illuminate
the insides of rooms. making them
about equal to early twilight.
Meteors, or, more commonly be
cause of their being small, meteor
ties, are encountered wandering aim
lessly about in inter stellar spaces by
the earth in its orbit. OF themselves
they are not luminous. But either
moving themselves at great speed, or
by reason of the earth itself moving
at great speed with relation to them
they are heated TO i~ncandescense by
friction with the atmosphere through
which they fall. In many cases they
fall to the surface of the earth, in
tensely hot. There have some very
large ones been found, which retain
ed their heat many days before cool
ing sufficiently for handling or even
approaching. Some go through the
atmosphere, but miss the earth, and
pass on, derelict.
Meteors are largely composed of
iron, with some nickel and other
metals in them. The luminous tail is
composed of minute particles which
are brushed from the hot exterior of
the body as it passes through the air,
and stream out behind, losing their
luminosity as they cool. Before
reaching the atmosphere surround
ing the earth, and after leaving 1t,
these bodies are not luminous of
themselves, having lost all their heat.

VISITS TRAINING CAMP
W. u. REYNOLDS VISITS SON
BOY ENJONING LIFE AND
WORKING FOR RAISE.

w. r. Reynolds returned last
night from Newport, II. l., where he
went a week ago to visit his son.
Chester b. Reynolds, who enlisted IN
the woman service Of the United
States navy. The young man Is re
ported to be doing finely, and study
ing hard TO qualify for a good berth
II the service.
Mr.. Reynolds says that he was op-
posed 10 the boys enlistment at the
time. as the young man was just re
covering from a severe sickness OF
measles. and in no condition to un-
dertake the work imposed on re-
cruits. But the boy went. Since,
knowing his condition, the father
was meas as to his condition, and
on his sons request hat he send him
some articles OF toilet and knick-
knacks, Mr.. Reynolds determined to
take them himself. SO, a week ago
today he went down.
When Mr.. Reynolds arrived at the
training camp, he says there was no
onposition to his entry. He merely
inquired for his son, and was direct
Cd straight 10 him without inyestiga-
ton. He found Burt studying. OI
his nhysical condition he said il had
improyed TO the extent of taking on
25 pounds of weight, and he felt
perfectly we'll.
The woman service into which the
Young man entered, is a clerical
work. The study they take up at the
training camp is that of keeping the
accounts. on passing the examina-
tion they are sem to a navy yard, n
when a ship is fitted with equipment
and men. they are detailed to look
after the books and reports OF GER
tain officers. He expects to be sent
to the New York navy yard. or mil
itary training this service is sub
jected to very little.
The 500 men Of this camp had in
tended to be moved into another
camp across the island, but some Of
the men developed humps and
measles. They were then detained
in the camp, and at the time Mr.
Reynolds left they were still in the
detention camp pending the develop
ment of other possible cases.
or war conditions in the cities Of
the east Mr.. Reynolds says that n
would not know that there was a
state Of war unless he saw the flags
and posters. In most places he visit
ed there was very little guarding, rs
far as he could see

REGISTRATION DAY
EVERY MAN BETWEEN AGES OF
II AND 81 MUST REGISTER
SEE ELECTION OFFICER.

Many entertain the idea that the
registration on June S is optional
with many who think they come un-
der an exception, or who believe
themselves ineligible because Of
physical or occupational exemptions.
Many also believe that because they
live in obscure parts of a city or
country they will be overlooked, or
at least not called upon to answer to
this call to duty in the service of the
country.
There is no choice for men be
tween the ages Of 81 and 81. Every
one must register, regardless of any
physical disability except the actual
inability TO get to the place of regis
tration. After registration and when
in possession of the card showing
that he is registered, it is only on
judgment Of the officers later that
he a be pronounced ineligible for
the ranks. But after the day Of reg
%istration, if a man cannot produce
his card he is liable TO arrest and
commitment to the federal peniten-
tiary for a year. Remember that
There is only one day to register.
You can't register either before that
day or after. 1t is only on that day,
and if the officer finds you after
that day without your card you are
going to have trouble with the war
department.
If the signs work out right it can
not be evaded even by travelling
about the country actively. An Off
Ger may loom suddenly before the
traveller or stranger at any time or
place and demand his card Of identi
fication or registration. And if he
cannot produce it-goodbye.
The hours for registration will be
at any minute between 7 o'clock i'm
the morning and 9 o'clock at night.
The place of registration viii be at
the usual voting place for each yot-
ing precinct in country or town.
1t is not presupposed that there
will be any who will attempt to eyade
the duty. In remote districts it
might be that there were some who
did not hear of the demand. or who
thought ii not compelling. TO them,
if you are a friend of theirs. il would
be mighty good evidence Of friend
ship if you told them, and impressed
them with the gravity of the matter
They simply must be there-or pay
by being deprived of liberty.

cese of South Dakota. The meeting
Will open tomorrow and continue
Sunday and Monday. There will be
no services in the Episcopal church,

Jas. O'Neill, senior partner of the
firm of VIM. O'Neill e. Son. who are
erecting the new postoffice, is in
town today. For a visual record of
progress made on the building he is
today having photographs made oil
the work, which will be preserved for
reference. A. c. Floe is making the
photographs.
There is some confusion as to the
place to register Tuesday, June 8, as
called for the selective draft. Many
have the idea that on that day they
are to register with the auditor or
sheriff. This is not the case. Every
n registering on that day must do
so at his regular voting place-reg-
lister at the place where you are en-
titled to vote.
The president of the Liberty loan
committee for Lake county takes a
very discouraged view of the situa-
ton in this county, he told a
reporter this morning. The sub
scriptions for the loans are not being
made as rapidly as he would wish,
nor, indeed, in any ann common
surate with cities and communities
about us. Minnehaha county, he
said, will raise their apportionment
of $1,000 600 without effort. The
great amount Minneapolis and st.
Paul set themselves to raise is in a
fair way of reaching the full amount.
Though not made acquainted with
the exact amount nov subscribed, il
is said to be almost as nothing as
compared with what is expected
Of us.

Is that these successful fishermen do
not make any statement of the spe-
cific place in which they did their
fishing. When asked they just make
the generalization of, "Oh. down at
the lake" But it Is known that there
were others just Down at the lake
who had TO be contented with the
usual string Of perch.
There Is a movement projected
among local fish fans TO offer a prize
for the best Of this game fish to be
taken during the season. Such a
work may or may not stimulate the
sport beyond sporting limits.

THE TRENT AFFAIR

The United States, like Germany,
loses caution when fighting. During
the War of the Rebellion Captain
Wilkes, commanding a Union vessel,
stopped British ship in mid ocean
and took from it the Confederate am
bassadors, Mason and Slidel. Eng
land flew into fury and war hung
in the air.
Did America rebuke Captain
Wilkes and apologize to England?
On the rontrary, the house of repre-
sentatives gave Wilkes a vote OF
thanks and a sword of honor; even
the administration was for him. But
Lincoln was at the helm and William
H Seward secretary of state. Mr..
Seward wrote a paper to England
that was masterpiece of caution
and fairness. Mason and Slidell were
sent peacefully on their way to Lon
don, and the trouble passed.

E. H. Beckett, Our
Commissioner,
Now Notified

Complaint has been brought to The
Leader Office to the effect that a bridge
on the road between Tarpon Springs
and the gulf is out Of commission.
This is the bridge which is constantly
used BY our citizens across the bayou
and it is a great inconvenience to them
to be compelled to drive a round about
way and trespass on private property
to get to town. The compliments say
this bridge was improperly repaired a
few weeks ago, and that while work
is often done on it this work is not of
a nature to last any length of time.
We hope our commissioner will re-
move this cause for complaint.
