Piece of Ancient Meteor.

Meteorites Of indicated great age are
conspicuous by their absence from mu-
scum collections, and it is suggested
that such specimens may disintegrate
and disappear from the rocks within
a relatively short time after falling.
The British museum, however, has late
~. acquired slice of somewhat less
than pound from meteOric iron
that is believed to represent an ancient
fall The slice is from one of two sim
liar masses that were found in Janu-
airy, 1905, within a few miles of Daw-
son, KlOndike, and that from their
position deep in the Oldest gravels of
the district are thought to have rested
there since the Pliocene age or before.
From his study of the original speci-
mems in the Museum of the Geologi-
cal Survey at Ottawa, r. A. A. John
son concluded that they are part of
a single meteoric shower Of Tertiary
time.

Dust Is Very DANGEROUS.

All kinds of dust form dangers to
human beings. Not only does dust ex-
ercise a direct harmful influence on
the tissues of the organism, but ii is
the chief transporting agent of germs
Of infection and contagion.
Dust is composed of infinitesimal
particles of street mud and of refuse
of every description which lies on the
surface Of the soil.
Psychologists say that these par
particles, when, dry, are disseminated
in the atmosphere, together with all
the impurities and microbes which
they may contain, and to which they
serve as Transporting agents.

KEROSENE STOVE BLEW
UP WHILE OWNER SLEPT
Home of Mrs. James Kelly on Grove
Street Narrowly Escaped Destruc-
ton Thursday Night.

The home of Mrs. James Kelly at
the corner of Grove and County
streets narrowly escaped destruction
Thursday night when a Kerosene
stove in the kitchen exploded. The
fire originating from the explosion
reached the roof and had the fire de-
partment been less prompt the build
ing would probably have been de-
stroyed.
The alarm was rung in from box Is
at about midnight. Mrs. Kelly start
cd the stove for the purpose of max
ing cup of tea to be taken before
she retired While the tea was in
the PROCESS of making she fell asleep.
She was awakened by the explosion
of the kerosene stove and found the
room in flames.
Two of the chemical automobile
trucks responded to the alarm and
it was found necessary to put on a
stream of water to subdue flames
which had spread from the kitchen
and had reached the outside of the
building. The damage from the fire
and from the water will be consider
able.
