STOCKHOLM, Aug 14-Legisla-

liquor and beer has resulted in very
high prices for alcohol of every kind.
So much so that smuggling of drink

the coast, and it is asserted that about
5000 gallons from the Baltic are land
ed and sold in Sweden every day.
Recently a German ship was said to
be anchored outside territorial waters
with a cargo Of spirits for sale. In
order TO establish the truth of this
alleged rum-running, the correspond
ent of The Associated Press decided
upon a personal investigation. With
friend he embarked on a six ton cut
ter for this German boat, which was
expected off Sandhamn, and after a
pleasant sail in the moonlight came
up with the vessel which was riding az
anchor with the usual lights showing.
On hailing the vessel we were re-

NO ONE EVER KILLED
BY FALLING meteor.
MANY never STRIKE
[From the Milwaukee Journal

Bodies can move through air so fast
that they become heated white by
friction and sometimes entirely de-
stroyed according TO the Rev, J. B.
Kremer, professor of physics at Mar
quette university, speaking of meteors
after the fall of a Potion mass of stone
and iron near Norfolk, Va, the other
day.
"A 20-ton meteor is large, but some
have been found weighing as much as
90 tons" Father kremer said. MANY
of them are very small and are burned
to a cinder before they reach the
earth's surface"
Father Kremer said it was not def
nitely known where meteors came
from, but that they probably were
pieces detached from the sun, other
planets and the stars. Such pieces Of
matter are whirling through space in
every direction, sometimes being
caught by the earth's gravitation in
fluence, which causes them to fall, he
said. Analysis has shown that many
of them are composed entirely of iron.
Nickel also has been found in them
and large percentage of rock.
Despite the fact that meteOrs of all
sizes fall constantly, there are no
cases on record where the falls have
killed persons or even done great dam
age to property.
Last Big Fall
The last considerable meteoric fall
in America occurred July 10, 1912, at
| Holbrook, Ariz., when meteor of the
explosive type struck the earth's sur-
face with a terrific noise and was
/ broken into small pieces. More than
$4,000 pieces of this meteor were
found strewn about, the largest weigh
| ing about IA pounds.
One of the most peculiar of recent
meteoric falls occurred at the little
town of Pitts. Ga, April 20, 1921, when
/ in broad daylight the inhabitants
noted the swift approach of a brilliant
| ly luminous body followed by a trail
| of smoke and making much noise
1t buried itself in a plowed field burst
ing into four fragments which fell
within a radius of one mile. The larg
est piece weighed six and one-halt
pounds Its composition was about
seven-eighths iron. the rest being
nickel, cobalt, copper, sulphur, phos
phorus and other minerals.
Another recent meteor was found in
a chicken yard near Alliance, O., last
| November. Persons sleeping in the
farmhouse were awakened by a bril-
liant light flashing in their windows
Next morning the meteor was found
deeply buried.
