Mr. Kaneen says he had just finished his dinner end walked—out-to look after the street lamps-which had jast~been lighted. He was standing: under a new style of street lamp just received from New York, at the cerner of Union and E streets, when there came a flash of light so dazzlingly. white aud bright that it eaused him for an instant to closa both ah ances, she was dead, — The; physician +0 pexing-his eyes almostinstan tl beheld falling perpendicularly ee ‘the heavens a ball of what at white fire of intense brilliancy about the size of a wash tub. The huge meteor descended as swiftly-asa flash. of lightning, apparently falling directly tothe ‘earth, From where he stood it was in a direct line with Pi‘per’s Opera House and the Enter‘prise building, which was nearly ‘Southwest.from bis standpoint: To’ him.the meteor appeared -to fall directly into D. street, between the Opera House and the Enterprise baild. ing. Just before it passed down behind the roof of the Opera House, the meteor divided into a great number of fragments" apparently about the size of a man’s fist. These darting out and showering down: frommain globe of fire, prosented, as Mr.Kaneen described it, much the’ appeardnce of the ribsof an umbrella ‘when stripped of its covering, the streaks-of fire 8 eaining down on all sides of where the ehis had been seen: Mr. Kancen that ‘ti Hnreteo# . had fallen in D street at the point med above, that. he stoed listening same. seconds after its-disappearance . to hear the crash-ef-its fall, and he evel caine up to D street and hunted baround for some time in front of the Opera House in-the expectation of being able to find some ef ‘the. fragments he had seen showered on all -is living to-day in good health and} sides: ~ We scarcely*need say that in this he was disappointed. He says 1 that. pure, dazzling white color, it ‘threw a bright blue glare npon all the buildings beforg him, This strange, wn earth! glare he particularly noticed inte building, Biuck’s large brick building, the Ore: Hotel and tbe smaller buildings between those ‘whieh-were in-sight meteor appeared to fall in-this city, it doubtless in reality fell hundreds if not thousands of miles away to thie . southwest. The point where Mr. Kaneen’ stood is probably 200 feet lower than the sight of the. Opera ‘House, therefore the meteor might well seem to fall behind the roof of that building.

Mr. Kaneen says he had just finished his dinner end walked—out-to look after the street lamps-which had jast~been lighted. He was standing: under a new style of street lamp just received from New York, at the cerner of Union and E streets, when there came a flash of light so dazzlingly. white aud bright that it eaused him for an instant to closa both ah ances, she was dead, — The; physician +0 pexing-his eyes almostinstan tl beheld falling perpendicularly ee ‘the heavens a ball of what at white fire of intense brilliancy about the size of a wash tub. The huge meteor descended as swiftly-asa flash. of lightning, apparently falling directly tothe ‘earth, From where he stood it was in a direct line with Pi‘per’s Opera House and the Enter‘prise building, which was nearly ‘Southwest.from bis standpoint: To’ him.the meteor appeared -to fall directly into D. street, between the Opera House and the Enterprise baild. ing. Just before it passed down behind the roof of the Opera House, the meteor divided into a great number of fragments" apparently about the size of a man’s fist. These darting out and showering down: frommain globe of fire, prosented, as Mr.Kaneen described it, much the’ appeardnce of the ribsof an umbrella ‘when stripped of its covering, the streaks-of fire 8 eaining down on all sides of where the ehis had been seen: Mr. Kancen that ‘ti Hnreteo# . had fallen in D street at the point med above, that. he stoed listening same. seconds after its-disappearance . to hear the crash-ef-its fall, and he evel caine up to D street and hunted baround for some time in front of the Opera House in-the expectation of being able to find some ef ‘the. fragments he had seen showered on all -is living to-day in good health and} sides: ~ We scarcely*need say that in this he was disappointed.

The point where Mr. Kaneen’ stood is probably 200 feet lower than the sight of the. Opera ‘House, therefore the meteor might well seem to fall behind the roof of that building.
