A COLORADO HAIL.STORM.

Hai1-Stones Three Inches in Diameter-A
Railroad Train Bombarded with Chunks
of Ice.
The Deliver News of a recent date
says /; Ain eyewitness, and d passenger
On the east-bound train, describes the
terrific hailstorm which occurred at
Potter Station, ON the Union Pacific rail
road, Friday night. The train was just
ptlling out from the station When the
storm commenced, and in ten seconds
there was such a fury of hail and wind
that the engineer deemed it best to stop
the locomotive. The hailstones were
simply great chunks of ice, many Of
them three and four inches in diameter,
and of all s~hapes-squares, cones, cubes,
etc.
The first stone that struck the train
broke q winoow, and the flying glass
severely injured a lady on the nose,
making q deep cut. Five minutes after
ward there was not o whole lightof glass
Oh the south side of the train the whole
length of it. The windows in the Pull
man cars were of French plate, three
eighths of an inch thick and double.
The hail broke both thicknesses, and tore
the curtains into slreds. The wooden
shutters, too, were smashed, and many
of the mirrors were broken. The
"decklights" on the top of the cars
were also demolished. The dome of the
engine was dented, as if it had been
pounded with a heavy weight, and the
woodwork on the south side of the cars
was ploughed as if some n had struck
it all over with sliding blows from o
hammer. During the continuance OF
this terrible fusilade, which lasted fully
twenty minutes, the excitement and fear
among the passengers ran very high.
Several ladies' tainted, and one lady,
Mrs. Earle, wife of the Superintendent
of the Mountain division of the road,
went into spasms, from which she did
not recover for over an hour after the
cessation of the storm. Several persons
sitting on the south side of the cars were
more or less injured about the head and
face.
As soon as the storm abated a little,
the mating in the cars was hung up in
front of the windows, and the train
moved ahead, the drifted hail stones
proving an obstacle for some miles. At
the next station strips of tin were pro-
cured and fastened over the windows the
entire length of the train. The cars
have been run into the shop for repairs,
and the damage will amount, it is esti-
mated, to several thousand dollars.

4 London gentleman writes To Nature:
In the recently published edition of the
descent of Man" there is some addi-
tional matter concerning the sense Of
humor in brutes, aud as the following
illustrative cases fell under my own OBJ
servation, think it worth while to pub
lish them rs supplementary To those adj
duced by Mr.. Darwin:
Several years ago ] used to watch care
fully the young oraBg-outaDg at the
Geological Gardens, and am quite sure
that she manifested a sense of the ludic-
rous. One example will suffice. Her
feeding-tin was Of somewhat peculiar
shape; and when it was empty she used
sometimes to invert it upon her head. The
tin then presented comical resemblance
TO bonnet, and a it, wearer would gen
orally favor the spectators with broad
grin at the time of putting it ON, she
never failed TO raise laugh from them.
Her success in this respect was evidently
attended with no small qualification on
her part.
once had a skye terrier, which, like
all of his kind, was very intelligent
When in good humor he had several
tricks, which ! know to have been self
taught, and the sole object of which was
evidently to excite laughter. For in
stance, while lying upon one side and
violently grinning, he would hold one
| lre in his mouth. Under such clrcum-
stances nothing pleased him 50 much AS
having his Joke duly appreciated, while
if no notice was taken of him hc would
become sulky. On the other hand moth

observers have stated that monkeys GER

good case among dog., save this one, and
here the signs of dislike were uncquiyo.

as To the absence of anything upon the
