Polished Pebbles

The musical drama which will be
presented at the Normal chapel Oh
Friday evening Of this week by the
Model and Normal School Glee Clubs,
will unquestionably prove one Of the
most popular entertainments given in
Richmond this season.
The Scene is laid in the front yard
of Mrs. 6'Bien's farm house. The
principal characters are Mrs. O'Brien,
and her two daughters, her rich broth
er, Uncle Bob, Mrs. Cable, the vii
lage gossip, and Mr.. Cable, her hus-
band, Rosalie, Mrs. O'Brien's niece,
and Nick and Martha, a country boy
an dgirl. The cast is supported by a
chorus of sunbonnet girls and overall
boys.
While the story points a moral, it is
replete with sparkling humor from
start to finish and demonstrates that
polished pebbles need not be mistaken
for real gems, no matter how brightly
they may shine. Everyone who can
gain admission should hear this enter
tainment. Only a sufficient number of
tickts have been printed to fill the
chapel, and these may be procured
from the members of the Glee Club OF
at the door. Admission will be 25
cents.

METEOR CAUSES HAVOC
IN NEARBY COUNTIES
Comet Falls Near Stanford, Shaking
Up Number of Towns-Trying
To Locate sBall Of Fire.

A few days ago, Somerset, Stanford,
Mt. Vernon, Danville, and other towns
south Of here, were considerably shak-
en-up and the general opinion was
that a meteor had fallen somewhere in
that section. The State Geologist is
making an effort to locate the cause of
this phenomena, and has asked the
Daily Register to publish the follow
ing:
News has come to us that what was
probably q meteor passed over a por-
ton Of southern Kentucky about noon
Of April 9th. As I am interested in
such phenomena I would like to have
you announce through your columns
3 that / would be pleased to receive
more detailed information, concerning
this event from persons who Witness
ed it.; and in particular ! would like
the following:
lat what time was 1t first seen
and about how long did it reniain III
sight, or, if it was heard, for how long
q time.
2-What direction, with reference
to the points on the compass, was the
meteor travelling? Give degrees from
the north or south point, east or west.
9f the meteor was seen to dis
appear, was this by what appeared to
be an explosion, and was this phen-
omena accompanied by a noise like
thunder or cannonading?
4LGive direction with reference to
the north or south point (east or
west) point of this point.
5Give angle Of elevation Of this
point.
The answers to Nos. 2 and will
require compass, or a watch, used as
a compass. On a watch keeping sun
time, if the hour hand is pointed to-
ward the sun, half way between that
direction ond IL o'clock is south, and
the minutes on the dial can be used
to measure degrees-each equalling 6
degrees of arc.
To answer 5 will require hand lev
el equipped with an elevation sight,.
or a paste board protractor, such as
is used by students of triconmetery,
can be substituted. Equipped with a
plumb line, the degree of elevation of
any point can be easily determined by
such an instrument.
Of course, in answering Nos. 2, A
and 5, the person will have to stand
again on the same spot where he first
witnessed the event. Very truly,
