A short time ago the writer had a note from Mra. J. H. Meyer, of Boals- burg, stating that she had observed a | peculiar light in her home one eves ning after dusk, and at first thought she had been deluded and the whole was an apparition. Next day a child approached her, who asked whether she “had seen the fire balls the evening before ; that they had bounded down over the walk”? Others in Boalsburg also saw the strange balls of fire, which led Mrs. Meyer to ask the Re- porter for an explapation. [ The lights seen were undoubtedly what are known to men of sclence as “electrio fire balls,” but their cause is very much a mystery. The electric fire balls, while not common, are frequently seen, and have been stud- ied by electrical wizzards, Itlis unusual to find them in inclosures, such as a dwelling bouse, shop, ete. hey sometimes explode with a loud report, a report not unlike that of thunder. Of course, we all very the Bt. pearance quite commonly not well know Elmo Fire, an elecir.eal ag- geen or mu 8ts and spars of vessels, and on pro- jeeting points of high buildings ; but the fire ball isa very different sflsir, and there seems to be sbandant evi dence of its occurrences, that is, if such scientific men as Arsgo, Humboldt, Fiammarion, and E B. Dunn of the United S'ates Weather Bureau may be good authority. A fire ball was witnessed by Edwin Holmes a member of the Royal Astropomies] <pciety, and this may serve to satisfy us that the fire balls seen by Mra, Meyer and the little girl were rot entirely de- ceptive appearances — EDITOR. | wa———_ a — ——— corsidered Father Must Malotala favatid Soa, A case from Miles an opinion on which has just been filed by Judge is of than ordinary importance to the taxpayers in all portions of the county. The decision virtually placed the expense of maintaining dependent children, whether of age or not, on the parent The case sat that of Miles Township vs. J. E. Walker, a resident of Miles township. L. A. Walker, aged about forty years, is an in the Danville asylum. The tention was who should pay the ex. penses of maintainiog. The father has real estate valued at something like $5000, but he claims it absorbs all the income to support himself, wife and daughter, and he therefore con. tended that the burden of maintain. ing the invalid in the asylum should bs assumed by the township. The court, in rendering its decision, stated that whereas Mr. Walker was a8 man well advanced in years, and that sinos be claimed that all the proceeds of the real estate were used up in support of the family a home, the father be directed each year to give a note to the township for the cost of maintaining, such pote to be made payable one day after the death of the elder Walker township, Orvis, more fssue is ton. ———— sp Horse News John E.
