BIG METEOR FALLS
AND SHAKES CITIES
Norfolk, Va. —The meteor which ;
flashed across the skies here last Fri-;
day night and rocked the hemes In
half a dozen oities by the shock cf its'
landing, was found 12 miles north of,
Blackstone, in Nottawa county.
Striking in a grove of oak trees,
the meteor made a depression in th
earth which measuied more than 500
square feet in area. Several trees
were buried beneath the falling body:
in this hole. The meteor apparently |
was composed of some metallic su
stance.
Residents in the vicinity said there
was a terrific detonation when the ob
ject, which apparently weighed as
much as 20 tons, hit the earth, and a
sheet of flame was sent up which was
plainly visible for miles. Scientists
from Richmond will vsit the scene
to make an analysis of the material
of which the meteor was made.
PLAGUE OF GRASSHOPPERS
TO TAKE WYCk, IS WARNING
The grasshoppers are going to
swarm down and take Northern Wyo
ming if efforts are not made to head
them off, warns Stewart Lockwood,
who represents the department of
agriculture.
"I have gone over the situation
carefully, and believe that the public
should be fully warned of the ap
proaching plague,” Mr. Lockwood said
in Sheridan last week. "Ninety per
cent of the grasshopper eggs which
were laid last summer are now de
veloping and will be hatched within
two or three weeks. There are an
enormous number of grasshopper eggs
in this locality. The earliest possi
ble action must be taken in the way
•of spreading grasshopper poisoning.
The earlier the poison is spread, the
more effective it will be. This point
cannot be overemphasized. The time
to act is now, and the action must be
from a united movement.”
The "red” census in Europe is es
timated at 2,800.000.
CARD OF THANKS
We acknowledge with grateful ap
preciation the many sympathetic kind
nesses of our friends and the people
of Cody in our recent bereavement.
The many expressions of sincere
sympathy, the beautiful floral tributes
and the innumerable thoughtful acts
have been an inestimable comfort to
us all in our sorrow.
