WHERE METEOR LIT
IS STILL MYSTERY
Some People Think It Struck
on Coast, Others Say It
Fell in Ocean.
VIEW AT BEACH DESCRIBED
All Who Saw Wonder Agree It Ke
rrmhlcd Ball of Fire and Carried
J.ong Tall, Which EmHtrd
Column of Fmoke.
No one has. come forward with a
anlution of the mystery connected with
the immense meteor which reused
through th sky. in Western Oregon,
last Suniajr. Ioxen saw it, and while
he versions penerally agree that it
was a large ball of fire, with a lonir
tail emitting smoke, no person seems
to know where the meteor hit the
earth. Some bellere that it struck
fjomewbere on the Oregon coast: others
think It fell Into the ocean.
D. R. Cheney. living at 795 Multno
mah street, who has Just returned from
Seaside. ntf-ht that there had
been treat excitement among; the peo
ple at Seaside and Tillamook over the
appearaore of the meteor. He said
that ha had a Rood view. In discussing
Its flight h said:
Mrs. Cheney and I were on the
toard walk at Seaside when the meteor
passed over our heads. It waa exactly
JI:IS o'clock Sunday when wo first
f It In the sky. It seemed to ns to
be about the slxe of an Indoor baseball,
eight or 10 Inches In diameter. On ac
count of the haxe In the sky the sun
.was dull and the meteor appeared con
siderably brighter.
"Its tall seemed to be about three
ifeet loner and was as bright as the
body. A volume of smoke followed In
Jta path. The meteor took a diagonal
nure to the northwest over Tillamook
Head and after it passed that point it
eemed to lose its velocity. It passed
ut over the ocean, when we lost sight
of ft altogether on account of the mist.
-About three minutes after It passed
out of our sight we heard three dis
tinct report. The first was quite loud,
imt the last report was faint. We came
to the conclusion that the meteor
truck the water at a long angle and
probably bounded along the surface
three times at least before It sank."

SEASIDE. Or, Sept. 5. (To the Edi
tor.) Toer description and surmise
that the meteor that passed over Ore
gon yesterday Is correct according to
the account given ma by Mr. ami Mrs.
"William Chenney. who were standing
In front of my cottage on the board
walk and saw It pass westward over
Tillamook Head, and could have seen
It fall In the ocean had It not been so
Jnazy. They thought It struck the water
not very far from the Tillamook light
house. They describe It as looking like
n skyrocket, and first thought It was.
The head waa brighter than the sun
as It passed under It and looked like a
tall of firs followed by a tall of fire
and smoke. There were three distinct
reports, which sounded to them like
distant cannonading, the first being
(he loudest. Tours sincerely.
DR. C. II. RAFFETY.
ALBA-XT COLLEGE. Albany. Or.,
Fept- 6. (To the Editor.) Fred Fort
sniller. of Albany, saw the Oregon
meteor yesterday shortly after noon,
lie saw It through only a short part of
lis course, as It went behind a building
when Just west of north. It was be
tween IS degrees and 20 degrees above
the northern horlxon and moved to the
vest is a horizontal course. It ap-T-eared
much like a skyrocket, with
yery white light, and was somewhat
a?t of north when he first noticed It.
Frank Hulbert and a party of seven
pr eight others saw the meteor through
Its whole course, from the porch of a
house about ten miles due south of
1Mb any. It appeared some 20 degrees or
more high and had a trail of sparks
Fome six or eight degrees long. They
aw It for 40 degrees or more In a
tourse nearly west from a point east
tf north, nearly to the northwest part
ff the sky. It moved slowly, lasting
ten seconds or more, and dropped very
little until near the end of Its course,
when It seemed to drop much faster.
Senator M. A. Miller had a glimpse of
the meteor at Lebanon, but the view
was soon obstructed. He Inclines to
place It higher In the sky than others.
Xf , it appeared nearly as high at Leb
anon as here, it must have been from
(0 to 100 miles above the earth. Its
position at Albany can be determined
with accuracy, but the angle has not
yet been measured. -
in this connection, an Incident related
r-y It. William Dexter Wilson, pro
fessor off psychology at Cornell Uni
versity, years ago. Is of Interest. He
sod many others saw a very large
meteor explode high In the- sky. At
the moment of the explosion he heard
a very loud report. Others also re
ported the noise from it. and all agreed
that the noise waa heard Immediately
after the explosion was seen. When
reports of the position of this meteor
were in from surrounding towns, the
meteor waa found to have been 60 miles
high. Sound would have required fully
five minutes to travel to the earth.
Herwe. Dr. Wilson explained, it was
proved to have been merely expecta
tion that excited his auditory nerves
and produced the merely subjective
sound that he heard. Perhaps no bet
ter Illustration of the somewhat un
certain character of sense perception
has ever been given.
I hope The Oregonian may secure
data and trace for us carefully the
coarse of this remarkable daylight
Jnctoor. F. O. FRANKLIN.

which swept across the sky at midday
