The People's Journal. PICKENS S.o . A GRJXAT SHOWISR OF STARb. THE EXPEO FED METEORIO DIS PLAY. The Heavens WilL be Aglow With Thousands of Meteors-The Frag ments of a Great Comet. On the night of November 14 one of the grandest spectacles ever offered by the heavens-will be witnessed here in the form of a grt at fall of Meteo rites. They are known as Leonids and their dazzling performance, which oc curs only once in every thirty-three years, will be plainly visible in South Carolina. In this wonderful display the meteo rites will touch the atmosphere of the earth and become ignited by the rapidity of tiheir flight. Millions of them will fall and they will appear as dazzling globes o; multi-colored flame. The fact that they ignite and dissolve on contact wita the atmosphere is all that saves the earth from destruc tion. Scientists all over the world arc making elaborate preparations for ob. serving the appearance of the Leonid8. This century has been the first that astronomers have discovered the cause of the great November meteoric shower. It was Tempel who found that the Leonlds are fragments of a . former comet. Reckoned by the figures of the heav ens the Loonids arc but infants. Ac cording to Prof. Simon New';oinb, Tem pel's comet has been dead only thirty three hundred years. The cause of the explosion was the heat generated by the rate at which the comet re volved as it tore through space. The sight, as the groat fiery body burst into a million molton fragments, must have been grand and awful beyond the powers of human comprehension. But for the fragments of the burn ing body there could be no rest. The visible but relentless forces which drew the larger body through count-loe ages along it certain path were at work also among the shattered flying parti cles. They fell into line. The larges1 fragments forged to the front and thi smaller particles fell in behind for i million miles and more. The unend Ing journey, interrupted for a while was taken up again along the old pat The course of Tempol's comet, ani of its subsequent fragments, cumpletc ly encircles the orbit of the eardt touching it at one place only on it outer edge. Once only in thirty thre yeare does Tompol's comet completo it orbit, and once only do the fragment of the dead comet, myriads in number trail across the orbit of the earth When Uils does happen, however, mil lions of these particles are drawn fron the orbit and fall into the atmospherI of the earth with an effect whici dazzles the spectators. The single meteor or meteorite tha makes when it strikes the earth's at mosphere the so-called shooting sta is a more tramp of the heavens. it I a detached fragment of some shatter ed planet, and it wanders more or les at random through space until it ce(ifl within the circle of attraction of som larger body, when gravity cauies it t fall. In the course of its uoscer through the atmosphore the meteosit generates so much heat that it is or tirely consumed ; the meteor, beini larger, continues on and strikes t~h earth. Occeasionally the heat p-enerated b tne r..ateor is so great that it burst before coining in contact with an, solid substance. In such a case It I termed a lire-ball. But m~ither th single meteorite nor the meteor can b observed by the telescope or by th n'aked eye exccpt at thle brilliant mnc ment of Its death, But the comet is a creature of the skies more to be reckoned with. 1rr-a tic as its wanderings may seem to thi unlearned, in reality it pursues a e finite course among the mor. orbits of the stars. - m regular orbit which ,t&:%~.tau Iengthi of th( comp '- A"r., sravels varies from th< - vlysmall distance of a fevy hundred millions to one that reaches into the thousands of billions. Th< time which different comets take ii completing their orbits varies froni three and a half to a hund red thousant years. The preciseness of astronomi cal knowledge is such that, the exac rate per second of the movement o these bodies can be determined ani the time at which the) will arrive a any given point of their orbits can hi predicted to the second. Regar ding the approaching meteori< display Prof. William A. Harknse who is in charge of the astronomica department of the United States gos ernent naval observatory, said : " We are unable to predict the exac hour at which the November meteor] showers will begin. From the bei present estimates it may be eypecte that the showers will reach a max: mum at 1 a. in. on the morning of th 15th of November. They w ill proba bi begin three or four hours earlier tha thi fte fail in small bursts. They wil continue throughout the morningc the 16th of November and will be moi or lis observable during the evening and mornings of the 15th, 16th and 17t of November, although on each suc ceeding day the number of meteors ot servable will diminish. "These meteors andl meteorites vari in weight from a few grains to manj pounds. They striae the earth's at mosphore at a height of seventy-foui miles and begin to burn, being ontirol' consumed when they are at a heigh1 of fifty miles. " The phenomenon of a groat me teorio shower is generally a perfectl) noiseless one. When the streak is first formed it is narrowi and perfectly straight, but soon becomes serpentine and assumes an irregular figure as it drifts along under the influence of the wind currents in the upper region of the atmosphere. These streaks or trails are of various colors, owing part ly to the composition of their elemen tary substances and partly to their altitude. Some are of a delicate greenish hue, while others light up the skies with a ruddy glow. Streaks of orange, red and white, with bluish white, commingle to form a most re markable and beautiful spectacle. Oc casionally an orange colored meteor may be observed, leaving iin its wake a streak of green. "MAany valuable results will no' doubt be gained from this year's ob servations, This will be first time in their history that the Leonide will be the centre of a systematic observation throughout the world." If it were not for our elastic atmos phere it would be dangerous to be on earth dut tng the coming bombard ment. Pieces of iron as large as a wal *nut, moving at the rate of from sigh toen~ to forty miles a second would go *througbh the roofs of our houses with . itl etration, and would set every the largor ones and they are extremely rare, ever reach the surface of the earth. There are but two Instances recorded in history of men having been killed by meteoric stones-one In Italy in the 13th century, and one in our country in the early part of the pres ent century. Our air is not only in dispensable for respiration, but it pro teots us from being stoned to death by the cosmic gravel. According to Dr. Denning, the most brilliant display in our annals was the November meteoric shower of 1833. In Boston alone it is estimated that 240, 000 meteors Nere visible during the seven hours' duration of the shower, and he says : "The vords 'prodigious,' 'stupon dous,' aSU 'magnificent,' do not do scribe it. Compared with the spion dor of this celestial exhibition, the most brilliant rockets and fireworks of art bore less relation than the most tiny star to the dread glare of the sun. "iStars" fell until there was none left. " A Bouth Carolina planter, writing of this meteoric display and Its effect 'ipon the negroes on his plantation says: "I was suddenly awakened by the most distreesing cries that ever fell on my oars. Shrieks of horror and cries of mercy I could hear from most of the negroes of three planta tione, amounting in all to (00 or 800. " Whilo earnestly listening for the cause, I heard a faint voice near the door calling my name. I arose and taking my sword, stood at the door. At this moment I heard the same voice besoching me to rise and say ing, "1 Oh, my God ! The world is on tire !" "I then opened the door, and it is dillicult to say which excited me the most-distressed cries of the negroes. Upward of a hundred lay prostrate on the ground-some speechloss, but with hands upraised, imploring God to save the world and them. The scene was truly awful; for never did rain fall much thicker than did the meteors to ward the earth, east, west, north and south it was the same. " It may be safely said," continuo Dr. Donning, " that in the month ol November ill astronomors and a great majority of the general public will be com meteoric observers, for the pho nomena presented will be of an excep tional kind and of a character to inter est everyone. " There is scarcely any natural even 5 which to the observant eye is so bril - liant and so impressive and animate4 as a rich shower of motoors. " A solar total eclipso, with its wolr shadow bands, corona and red promi nonces, a largo comet with its trai spread over a conaidorablo extent c s the heavens, And a brilliant auror o borealis with its streams and condor sations of crimson lights, have thol s striking attributes ; but it is questiou able whether they can compare wit the ratarkablo features which accovi pany a great fall of shooting stan T The rarity of the spectacle also cr 3 hancos its interest, so that when one I son it is never forgotten. " Por hours meteors descend, no t singly or in pairs, but in bursts of to . or twenty or more, and they are mosti e line objects like Sirius or stars of th iirst magnitude."

The Chicago Tribune prints a sum wary of the situation in the Philippine islands from its speclal correspondent Richard H. Little. The letter, which is dated Manila, September 14, says : " Here are some figures, made seven months and a balf after our campaign against the Lilipinos began. Say it is live miles to Angeles-we hold posses slon of the railroad up to that point. We can fairly claim possession of the land a half mile on each side of the track. We have possession of the wa gon road, and lot us say, a half mile on each side from San Fernando through 3acoloor to Santa Rita, eight miles, with four 'nilles to Guagua. We have a road from Mololos to Ballanag, 11 miles northeast. We can claim 11 square miles hero. " We have Manila, out as far as the water works, live miles away. That gives us, say, 25 miles around the city. " Then we have the road and a half mile each side down 18 miles to Imus. Then we have Calamba and some other points on the lake that General L.Lwton captured before he was ordered back These towns are not approached by road, but by boat across the Laguna do Bay, and we only control the land t,ney stand on. " Adding up our total possessions we find we have 117 squaro miles. " The island of Luzon contains 42,000 square miles. " Outside of Luzon the insurrection seems to be growing. The Insurgents hold ports in Mindanao, the largest is land to Luzin in the Philippines, and said to be incalculably rich in gold and silver mines, iron and copper ores, and other minerals, besides possessing won derful forosts of hardwood. No Amer icans have dared venture there as yet, as General Otis has sent no troops tu the island. 1nglisbmen and Germans are prowling about the island gotting all the concessions they cLn. It Is said soveral prospecting parties are at work, "General Otis reports conflicts be. tween the ' robber bands' and Amer, loan soldiers in Negros and Cebua. Tht Nineteenth, the Eighteenth and the Sixth, and one battalion of the Twenty third infantry are now in these islandIt lighting the robber band, who dij tronchcs and occupy towns and makt night attacks after the fashion of th( insurgents in Luzon. " A late report from Cobua is tha eoino 2,000 ' robbers' woro menacini our forces and a collision was immi nent. " The next campaign Is goir.g to bi r different from the last. We will go out of the flat, open country into ioun tainous, thickly wooded country. I we do not ond the war here we wil have to carry it into the high, rocky ribbed mountains of Luzon. " It will be no violation of a state sec creo to say that tho first object (if th, next campaign will be to get the rou. of the railroad from the hanids of th insurgents. The insurgents ought t< be firmly convinced by this time tha we want the Manila and Dagupan rail road, as we nave fought along that lin seven months. They know we want i and they also know that we are goin e to get it, for they are already tearin - up the track, burning the tics, an nuryini; the ralla north of Angolos. " Tho country east of the railroa Snorth of Angeles to Dagupan, is mnuci - like it is south of Manila, except high or and broken. West of the railroac are high mountains that wIll olfor' the t insurgents better opportuniity to re treat and escape than they had in the Slow country. With the taking of th< Lrailroad we will have cut oIT the pro Svinces of Zambales, Paggasinan, Tarlac Sand P'ampanga, and Bitaan, from tblu Smain part of the island, anQGvE la Sclaim to a good deal more co~ntry thai the preclse ammuJWof real estate or which our armfy is now camping.

So after a few mile , of railroad is captured the soldier i have to scatter up and down the traci 0 and go mining for steel rails. Thi , insurgents bury the rails five or si: h feet deep. They observed that th * Americans located the rails by sound Sing with a crow oar, so they resorto tto the expettient of putting a layer )tie's over the rails. Tq replace th gburned ties the quar termaster's deparit dmont were forced to use planks, tw boards, each two inches wide beli dnailed together for ties.

A SENATORIAL SLANDER.-Two la dies visiting in Wathington during one of the sessions of Congress went to the Capitol to hear the proosedings in the United Staties Senate. Most of the galleries being filled, they appIroached the doorkeeper of th~e Senators' gal lery, where admission is by card. As they did not possess this passport, the doorkeeper suggested that tbhey pro. oure one from any Senator they might be acquainted with.

The Washington correspondent o the Atlanta Journal says that Admira Da sey's announcement of his engage ment to Mrs. Hazen, daughter of Mrs Washington McLean and sister of Johi R. McLean, has caused much commeni tu that city. By appointment the de 1 wation from Nashville who had come Lo Washington to invite Dewey to bi present in that city upon the arrival o the Fitat Tennessee regiment, callo upon the admiral at his new home lie received the delegation in the library, the Invitation being ex'ende by lcpresentative -Gaines, of Nash ville. The admiral, in answer to the Invitation, said that he was acquainted with many of the First Tennessee and would be delighted to be present al their home coming, but doubted whether he would be able to do so. The Philippine commission, he said t them, was meeting in Washington an it was very necessary for him to b( present, should they desire to consul im The admiral then walked up anm down the iloor two or three times, am iinally stopping in front of the dole gation, his face wreathed ,in smiles said : " There is one other reason, gentle men, why I may not he able to be pre sent." Here he began blushing like i echoolboy. The delegation waited i few moments, and impotuously the ad miral blurted out the announcement il this fashion: " The fact of the matter is I hav juat, this day secured the promise o one of the most charming little we men in the world to become MrE Dewey." Dr. Wharton, a member e the delegation, who had been witl Admiral Dewey at Annapolis and is al intimate friend of the admiral, rushe forward, and giving him an oldfasL ioned ombrace, heartily congratulate him. The other congratulations wer dignified. The admiral then proceoded to te the delegation that they were th second to learn of his prospectiv happiness. " The first person to whom I ai nounced my engagement was ex-Secrt tary Hillary Herbert, my confidenti friend, as well as my legal counsel said the admiral. The engagemon he said, would be announced publici very soon. It will be remembered that it was t the home of Mrs. McLean and Mr 6, Hazen that the admiral stayed whe he first reached this city. Many it - teresting things occurred during tb visit of the delegation to the admira 3 Mr. Price saId that he had soen som t doubt cast upon the story of his no - famous order for Gridley to fire. T1 f admiral confirmed this story and r, I lated how he had stood on the bridg - as the lleet entered the harbor, at being a little short of ammunitiol - had signalled to the squadron not i e tire until they saw the smoke from ti t flagshlip's guns. Finally, he sali D when the whole Spanish squadron wi j peppering atuhis fleet, he leaned ov4 t the bridge and made ube of the rarmar - so fr quently quoted: " You may fil a when you are ready, Gridley." 1, The admiral had the entire hou 4 lighted up, and took the delegath from collar to top story, saying it wi the first real estate lie had ever owne and he felt that he never wanted leave. 1 He sent for his Chinese valet, ar - addressing his remarks chiefly to M i Gaines said lhe hoped Courorss wyoul perrnit~ him to keel) this gallant liti - Chinese boy.
