BILL ARF
.A-rp on the Meteors
Says he Kno
Atlanta Ci
A friend living in Arkansas writes
uie about tho recent fall of a meteor
near his homo, and he compliments me
by askiug some questions that I can
not answer. Tho origin of meteors
and their flight aud fall is yet the un
solved problem of the ages.
Ile says that on the 20th of last
mouth, at 8 o'clock in thc morning,
when there was a clear sky and not a
cloud to be seen, there was a rumbling
sound of thunder so weird and unnat
ural that it was alarming. It was like
the rolling of heavy trucks over an
uneven platform, only immensely
louder. It was heard in all the neigh
boring towns, and they all telegraphed
each other to know, if a mill bad not
blown up or a magazine exploded.
Suddenly there was an explosion, in j
thc air and a dark cloud formed and i
meteoric fragments fell at different j
places in this vicinity. A small piece
that weighed one and a half pounds
tell in a Held near by and was brought
to town while it was yet hot. It was |
powder-blackened on tho outside, but j
inside waB a grayish color, and its j
particles shone like gold dust. Under I
the microscope they resembled quick- j
silver.
It was a full minute from the begin
ning of the rumbling thunder till the
explosion came, and the course of tho
sound was from east to west. The
event was so unexpected, and so like
the mythology of Jupiter tonans
throwing a bumb from Mt. Olympus
that the white people were spellbound,
and the negroes declared it a warning
and went to prayer.
Philosophers and astronomers have
been Etudying these phenomena for
2,500 years, and have not yet agreed
upon a solution. The archives of the
Chinese empire record the fall of six
teen great aerolites from 300 to 600
years before Christ. The Greeks and
Romans record a number, and Aristotle
and Diogenes commented upon them.
So did Livy, Plutarch and Pliny.
They have been seen so largo that the
estimated weight of the fragments
after the explosion was 30,000 pounds,
and the light was so brilliant as to
pole the sun by day and obscure the
moon by night. There is now in the
Yale college cabinet a fragment that
weighs 1,635 pounds. This came from
near the Ked river in Arkanses. Many
of the western States have furnished
specimens for the museums of colleges,
and all of them are composed of the
same mineral ingredients-principally
? iron-and include copper, tin. sniphur,
carbon and other metals known to our
own earth. Not a single new sub
stance has ever been discovered, and,
for this reason the theory obtained
that they were thrown up from our
own voloanoes with such force as to
wander for a time in the outer atmos
phere of the earth, and to revolve
with the earth. But this theory has
long since been abandoned, for they
seem to have an orbit of their o*, t
from west to east. Them came, a
theory that they came from the moon,
and were of volcanic origin, and were
thrown out with such terrific force as
Bto get boyond the .mc-oa'3 influence
land within that o* the earth. But
this was discredited because these
fragments have been falling, no doubt,
for thousands of years on the land and
on the sea, and on all countries, and
would have by this time materially
diminished tho size and weight of the
moon. La Place and Humbolt favor
ed this moon theory for a time. But
our modern astronomers, such as Pro- \
fessors Arago and Aimst-jd and Bow
ditch declare that.meteors aro simply
clouds or nebulea of meteoric planet*
Vthat have a motion ant) orbit of their
own, and 'that orbit sometimes comes
within range of the earth's and pro
duces a commotion-a disturbance
that causes the fall of some of their
tlown nebulea. Som? of the children
?got too far away from their mother, I
reokon.
Sometimes meteors are simply lumi
nous and have no body to explode or
strike the earth. - These have periodic
cfvibrationa of thirty-four years. -They
some in showers as thick as snow
flakes, and fall as gently to within a
?ew feet of the earth and are extin
guished. They fell in 1799-1833 and
1867, and each fall was on tho. 13th of
Jiovember. Bot there have been
ninor displays at irregular intervals
j ;enerally about the 10th of August.
j [ am old enough to remember well the
'falling of the stars" in 1833. My
: ather held mein his arms as he stood
h n the portico, for I was scared. Our
71 dd negro, aunt Minty, was praying
md shouting ao it scared all of us
jf ihildren. George Lester lived on the
)ppoaito side of tho street, and his
D Dothor hold him in her arms. Some
imes in theso latter days I would get
f. litb my old-time friends, Dr. Jim
** Uexaader. or his brother Tom, or
reorge Adair, and we could boast of

' we never neglected to say, '"and we
j saw the stars fall in 1833." Dewey
' uever saw a night like that-but I
reckon the Spaniards at Manila thought
they did on the 1st of May.
liut this is enough about thc rue
I teors. At least, it is about all that I
' kuow. Joe M ulhattau, or Munchausen,
made up a big fake a few years ago
while 1 was in Texas and telegraphed
; the fall of a meteor near I?rownwood
; that was as big as a meeting house
and had buried itself thirty feet in
; the earth. I was at I?rownwood a few
days after and thc postmaster was as
mad as a hornet with Joe, 1"or tele
grams came to him from all over the
United States aud England wanting to
know about it and wanting to buy it
at any cost. Joe had to leave there
and bide out for a month or two. The
postmaster answered a few and tbeti
swore off. There is one good thing
about meteors. They never hurt any
body. The books say it is remarkablo
aud perhaps providential that in all
the earth there is no record of one
haviDg fallen on anybody or destroyed
a habitation. Tcrrcstial lightning
gets us sometimes, but celestial fires
are not dangerous.
And now tho next inquiry is from a
youug farmer who wants to know if it
is good farming to follow grain with
grain. He does not say what kind of
grain, but I will tell him that fifteen
years ago thc Courier-Journal of Ken
tucky offered a prize of $1,000 for the
best essay on practical agriculture.
Over 200 were contributed and the
essay that got the prize detailed the
writer's plan of farming in Kentucky.
It was brief, very brief. He laid off
his corn rows seven fest apart,
drilled his corn eighteen inches apart,
cultivated the ground thoroughly and
harrowed it; sowed wheat early and
harrowed it in. When the corn was
ready to gather he drove the wagon in
every sixth row and loaded from three
rows each side. After the corn was
all gathered he went over the corn
stocks crossways with a heavy roller
and rolled it all down flat on the wheat.
The stocks and the blades covered
it like a blanket. When the first good
snow fell he sowed clover on the snow.
When it rained or thawed the clover
seed fell into the ground and took
root, and so he bad corn and wheat
and olover following in rotation and
made a fine crop of each.
But in this region our farmers have
learned the value of peas as a fertili
zer and stock food, and the harvest of
hay this year will no doubt double all
previous records. One of my friends
has a small farm near town and last
year harvested a fair crop of wheat
from a twenty-acre field. After the
wheat was off he,so .ved ten acres of
the ground in cow peas. Last fall he
aowed it all down io wheat and this
spring you could tell just where the
line of peas came to. There was no
difference in the quality of the land.
It was all level and all alike and yet
he harvested this year ten bushels p?*r
acre on one-half and eighteen on ne
other. Now, what caused this great
difference? It was the shade of the
pea vines, the shade that produces
nitrogen, and nitrogen is the Vest of
all plant food. The denser the shade
the more nitrogen goes down into the
soil. A canebrake, a briar patch, a
clover covering, an old house in a
field-remove it and plant the ground
that was under it and see how luxuri
ant vegetation grows. Plant a grape
vine near your house and the roots
will all run under the house to feed
to feed on nitrogen. My wife has a
wisteria vine at the end of the veran
da, and in three years' time its roots
had traveled underneath tho floor an'd
sent up sprouts twenty feet away, and
for a time we did not know where they
came from. A good farmer will shade
everything he can. He will cover the
thin and galded spots in his field with
wheat straw. There is no virtue in
wheat straw, but it makes shade, and
that makes nitrogen. There is no
virtue in a stone or in rooks, but they
make shade, and notiee how plants
will grow near to rocks or a rook wall.
My lo.>g lamented friend, Dr. Berok
man, told me that "rocks were' God's
blessing to the land," and he pur
chased ten acres of very stony land
for his vineyard and his flower gardon.
It rejoices mo to seo how our middle
Georgia farmers are looming up on
wheat oulture. Forty bushels to tho
aore. Ten years ago it would have
been declared impossible. This re
minds me bf my old'Eoglish neighbor,
John Allen, who asserted that his
father was never content in old Hetg
land with less than sixty - bushels of
wheat to the sere, and sometimes he
made seventy. "Sow wheat in dust
and rye in mortar," was bis motto.
Good old John. Allen. ( shot his eow
in my . cornfield, for it was her third
offense,find the old man was grieved.
He nev?r got mad, bnt only said: "I
kpow ?te coow worried ye, bnt-but
major,] I wouldcnt have shot your
coow. I love you too well for that."

Tho Water American.
"Father," said Frank one day at
dinner, ''is a boy who drinks beer
stronger than one who does not ?"
"Why, no, my boy, certainly not;
but what made you ask such a ques
tion ?"
"Well, you see, some of us boys at
school are going to have a 'walking
match, next Wednesday, and Tom
Gates and I are to walk against Will
White and Fred Brown. Now, Will
and Fred both drink beer, and as Tom
and I were coming homo this noon,
some of tho boys said to us, 'You
stand no chance of beating, unless
you take some beer before you start.' "
"And what did you say to that, my
son?"
"I told them I did not believe that
beer would help Us any; but even if it
would, we would rather be beaten
than to take such poison into our
stomachs."
"I am glad to hear you say that, my
boy; and now let me tell you a little
story about Benjamin Franklin, the
man who discovered that lightning
and electricity are the same, and who
invented lightning rods to protect
I buildings.
"When Franklin was a young man,
he went to London, England, and
while there he worked in a printing
office where most of the men were
great beer drinkers. One of the men
used to drink six pints every day.
Franklin drank nothing but water.
The others laughed at him, and nick
named him the 'Water American,' but
after awhile they saw that he was
stronger than they were, for he could
beat them both at work and at play.
"One day when they went to bathe
in the river Thames, they found that
their 'Water American' could swim
like a fish; and ho so astonished them
that one of the rioh men in London
tried to have him start a swimming
school to teach his aons."
Frank was much pleased with his
father's story, and when the time for
the race came, he and Tom started out
with a great deal of courage. For a
while after they had started, Will and
Fred kept ahead, but after a time they
began to fall behind, until at last
Tom and Frank reached tho goal fully
five minutes before them.
That night Frank said to his father:
"I seo how it is;, when the beer is first
taken into the stomach,, the person
feels as though he were stronger; but
he soon finds that instead of being
strengthened he is only made weak,
and so I mean to let it alone."

RICHMOND, VA, October 12.- I>r.
H uter McGuire, who was surgeon
general on Stonewall Jackson's stafT,
submitted a report to-day to the
Grand Camp of Confederate Veterans j
at Pulaski City, Va., which is certain I
' to attract widespread attention. Dr.
McGuire is chairman of the history ;
committee appointed by the camp, i
with a view of prevctitiug tho use by
schools of any history which does not
deal fairly with the South in ifs narrar j
tion of the events of the civil war.
Thc light ?low is made on fiske's
School History of thc Inked States,
winch Dr. McG uire's committee insist
docs the South great iujustio.' in
maintaining that tho South fought
the civil war for thc purpose of per
petuating tho institution of slavery.
This tho committee in it* report
denies with groat vigor ard fervor.
Dr. McGuire points out thal Gen.
Hobt. E. Lee M .i.s in favor of freeing
all tho slaves in the South, giving to
each owner a bond to bo th ? first paid
by thc Confederacy when its indepen
dence should bo secured, and that
Stonewall Jackson, while believing in
tho Scriptural righi to own slaves,
thought it would be politic of the white
people to free them.
Ho owned two, one a negro man,
whoso first owner in financial difficul
ties was compelled to sell. The negro
asked Gen. Jackson to buy him and
let bim work until he accumulated
tho money to pay thc General back.
Ho was waiter in a hotel and in a few
years earned the money, gave it to
Jackson and secured his freedom.
The other was a negress about to bo
sold and sent away from Lexington.
She asked Jackson to buy her, which
he did, and then offered to let her
v ork as thc man had done and secure
her freedom. She preferred to stay
%vith the General and his wife as a
slave, and was an honest, faithful and
affectionate servant.
Gen. Joseph E. Johnston never
owned a slave. Fiually, says Dr. Mc
Guire's report, and this deserves a
a separate paragraph, "with respect
to the motives of action, wc would be
glad if Mr. Fiske or any other North
ern authority would relieve us of the
mental confusion resulting from the
contemplation of thc facts that
Robert E. Lee set free all of his slaves
long before the sectional war began,
and that TJ. S. Grant retained his as
slaves until they were made free as
one of the results of Lincoln's eman
cipation proclamation.
"Few, perhaps, know that Gen.
Grant was a slaveholder, but the fact
isthat he had several in the State of
Missouri, and these were freed, like
those in the South, by the eman
cipation proclamation. 'Thoseslaves,'
said Mrs Grant, 'came to him from
my father's family, for I lived in the
West when I married the General,
who was ' then a lieutenant in the
army.'"
The distinguished Confederate also
touched a popular chord when he con
demned thc constitutional amendment
giving the right of suffrage to the
negroes, "turning loose a legion of
devils to torment us," as he put it.
