CLEVELAND NEWSPAPER DIGEST JAN. 1 TO DEC. 31, 1876 Abstracts 6158 - 6162 TRIVIA (Cont'd) were laying plans to escape, but they were unable to get any definite information until yesterday. The hinges of a cell door were found to be nearly sawed in two. This was the cell in which H. L. Stanton, S. D. Merrill, alias Dale, and L. H. Rosenbach, an alleged forger, horsethief and suspicious character respectively, had been confined last night. It is now supposed these three prisoners had planned to get out of the cell in which they were confined, knock down and gag the doorman, take the keys from him, and escape by way of the main entrance. 6158 L Dec. 27:8/4 - One of Cleveland's well known artists, Mr. Dr. Scott Evans, goes to Europe about the 1st of May next with the view of prosecuting his art studies for a year or two at Paris. Mr. Evans has met with marked success since he has been in Cleveland, and with the advantages for study which he will find in the French capital, we predict for him a high and successful career. 6159 L Dec. 28:5/3 A LEADER reporter visited a curious character 6160 L Dec. 28:7/3 - Covered with Charges, Samuel Dale alias Merrill, was up in the police court, yesterday, on the charges of grand larceny and horse stealing. To both of these he waived examinations and was there upon bound over to the Common Pleas Court. These make not less. than five charges which have been made against the defendant since he was arrested here, on four of which he has been held for appearance before the grand jury. 6161 L Dec. 29:8/1 "The Infirmary clerk desires that acknowledgments be made the Flower Mission for a lot of magazines to be sent to the Infirmary." (2) 6162 L Dec. 30:14/3 In a letter to the editor "E. L. H." says: During the last few days a number of communications have appeared in the LEADER relating to the meteoric phenomena that occurred on the evening of Dec. 21, and as there still seems to be a difference of opinion, my observation concerning it may throw some light on the subject. At the time I was making observations on one of the constellations. A few minutes past nine I heard a very audible report, which seemed to (1) (9) (1) (1) CLEVELAND NEWSPAPER DIGEST JAN. 1 TO DEC. 31, 1876 Abstracts 6163 TRIVIA (Cont'd) have come from the northwest. My attention was attracted by it, and There have been many theories advanced to account for this wonderful phenomena, but the most satisfactory one is that advanced by Professor Olmsted, of Yale: That we are passing through a nebulous body, which was then pursuing its course along with the earth around the sun; that this body continues to revolve around the sun in an elliptical orbit, but little inclined to the plane of the elliptic, and having its aphelion near the orbit of the earth, and also has a period of six months. As a proof of this, we find that almost all the noted phenomena of this character, which are recorded have occurred in two opposite m nths of the year. November and April have been especially favored. The noise and report that was mentioned, I attributed to either the explosions themselves or fragments falling into the lake, it certainly did resemble very much the noise, as records tell us, which have been produced by similar phenomena. "I hope this observation may cast some light upon a subject that has been shrouded in an uncertainty for ages, or better, perhaps, call forth a treatise from someone more capable to impart it than a beginner." 6163 L Dec. 30:16/2 The snow storm of yesterday fixed the question of sleighing for New Year's, at least. A singular fatality seems to follow each Friday of this month. The first two were fearful, the cold being intense and the wind very violent. The third one sputtered away towards evening, and managed to get up quite a gale before morning, while the fourth is so recent in the memory of man that it requires no description. It is hoped a new order of things will come in with the new year, and that the storm will not come with such persistent regularity.
