storm and Flood Signais-By the
Telegraph aud Cannon.

TO he Editor or The EccniR1 CFsttc:
on Sunday published an article on this
subject in the Cdpifdk in which l stated that
nearly every day for the next four months the
telegraph and press viii recount the great loss
Of lives and property by tornadoes and sudden
Hoods in some part OF the country and In
Europe. And all this loss without any posi-
bic warning from the present Government
system by publication in newspapers and
maps. II was n somewhat singular clrcum.
stance that on the same day the papers an
nounced tornadoes at Leavenworth, Kansas
City and st. Louis, and to-day even a greater
one Is announced In Iowa, with still greater
loss OF life and property.
1t might be asked how many more years the
Weather Bureau and Congress will permit
this loss Of lives and property without some
effort to prevent It; and especially whom l
have for many years urged a test of my plan
Of storm and flood signals by tho telegraph
and cannon, TO give certain, instant and gem
oral warning of all tornadoes, sudden floods
on rapid rivers, and TO farmers during haying
and harvest. The test could be made at mil
itary stations, where cannon are in use and
located in the pOpulous States, where, il sue
cessful, 1t could then be established by the
city and town authorities and made universal
without any cost to the General Government
In place of few observer sergeants scattered
over the country, with costly instruments, my
plan Is to employ the 100000 miles OF tele-
graph lines and 10000 station agents, when
occasion may require, to telegraph all travel
ing storms and sudden foods from town to
town. the kilograms to he made universal by a
sound signal. And this would cost much less
than the present system, as it would only be
In use when required and would even then be
paid for at n small price for this extra work
Of the lines and agents, mostly by the country
benefited.
But The Weather Bureau refuses to test this
simple and Inexpensive plan, for fear that the
present useless system would be blown to the
winds by the frst warning of q tornado and
Its further complete success; and these mill
tary barnacles would find themselves without
honor or emoluments. They prefer TO let
thousands OF lives be lost yearly by torna-
does and sudden floods, and hundreds of mil
lions of property, including hay and grain
during harvest, to be lost rather than lose
| their fat places. 1t Is the most possible case
| of selnshness and utter disregard of the pub
| lie interest.H owgate's 100000 steal, and all
| that has been stolen and squandered beside, is
| small TO this.
But how much longer, after this notable
| less of life and property by the recent tor
| nadoes In the West, with the certainty that
| similar ones will recur soon in many parts OF
| the country, Will this thing be permitted
| 10 go ON without some effort 10 prevent 1t by
the Secretary Of War and Congress

DIR. Mary Il. walkers idea.

There was method In the madness of
the woman In Chicago who recently
poisoned her four beautiful children.
There was reason In some regards, for she
dressed them up In their best clothes and
adorned them with flowers after their death,
and was happy In tho contemplation OF
Deaths leaving strange beauty on their mar
bic brows." And then there was method In
making herself beautiful In death before lifo
had taken the charms OF mature life from her
face. Her insane glory was tho praise of her
four beautiful children and herself all in the
same funeral entertainment.

To the Editor Of The ECeHtn0 Critic.
Three out of the answers to the problem
under the caption ''Boys, get out your pen
cils," are wrong. The answer, $45 and pair
OF boots, is correct. II lost more than this,
who gained 1t? A did not, for he only gained
S45 and boots. C did not, for he gave $50
change for the counterfeit and received only
$50 in return; he was therefore neither loser
nor gamer; A being the.only gamer ana having
gained only $40 and boots, and being the
only loser, must have lost what gained. The
giving of the counterfeit note was the Same as
II nothing had been given, as It availed moth
ing, so b only lost what he parted with to A.
1t would have made no difference whether
obtained the change from to give S45 or
whether 1t was in tho drawer; in either case
he had TO make good the $50 which he got
Tor the counterfeit. 1t was out of this $50
which he got from q that he gave A S45 and
put the remaining SIS in his drawer therefore
until he returned the $50 he had So more
than he had at first. Having had then So
more in his drawer than he had at first, by
taking $50 from the drawer he had S45 less
than he had at first. As the boots went for
nothing, as well as the S45, BIS loss was tho
boots and Sl5. Il. NJ. b.

To the boys without pencils We venture to
give the following as a solution that Will bear
analysis: II b had changed the bill himself he
would have lost the Si5 In change plus tho
boots. AS It was, he lost the $40 which he took
out OF his own pocket, plus the So that he had
retained as pay for the boots, hence his loss
equals the face Of the note, which was $50.

THIS CONGRESS has not been so prolific
of men who deserve well of the country
that any single instance need be over
looked. But if it had afforded the utmost
profusion of patriotism the name of Rich
ard w. Townshend, of Illinois, would still be
entitled TO especial honor. Mr.. Town
shend is a member of the Judiciary Com
mittee, and in that capacity has been called
upon to stand between the property of the
people and the greed Of great railway
corporation in the matter Of lapsed land
grants. The difficulty of Mr.. Townshend's
position has been vastly augmented by the
fact that a number of his associates on the
committee unfortunately permitted them
selves to be so profoundly impressed with
the specious sophistries of the shrewd at
torneys whom Mr.. Wizards vast wealth
enabled him to hire that they lost sight of
the equities Of the peoples side Of the case
and proposed to confirm the spurious title
set up by Mr.. Willard and his corporation to
the fairest portion of the remaining public
domain.
An empire was in dispute, and, of course,
the effort to retain it was desperate. Mr..
Willard, having already succeeded in buy
ing a cabinet officer of former Admins
tration, was doubtless emboldened in his
negotiations for Judiciary Committee
The prospect that he would succeed in the
latter as he had in the former transaction
was at one time imminent. We suppose il
is pretty well understood that every mem
ber of the committee might have com
manded his own price. A unanimous re
port in Mr.. Yillard's favor would hav'
been, in his estimation at least, the equiya
lent of a warranty to an area greater than
that Of the United Kingdom Of Greai
Britain and Ireland. There were but fifteer
men to be dealt with, and the pay. chesi
was practically bottomless.
We mention these circumstances to giy'

UP TO date THE CRITIC considers itself
in lawful possession of three large scalps,
each adorned with profusion of flowing
locks. One is the scalp of the late Land
Grant Ring; another that of the late
Whisky Ring, an6 the third-not so large,
but quite as beautiful, as its companions
that of the Abbatoir Ring of local fame.
The Land Grant Ring proposed to rob
the public domain of an area nearly equal
to that of the inhabited Colonies at the out
break of the Revolution.
The Whisky Ring wanted a subsidy of
seventy millions of dollars from the Ma
tional Treasury for the benefit of about
four hundred distillers.
While all that the modest little local Alb
batoir Ring wanted was the privilege OF
levying perpetual tax on the tri-weekly
marketing Of the citizen of the District,
without distinction of race, color or pre-.
vious condition.
They all Look better since they were
scalped.

THE FOLLOWING is clipped from Mr..
Nelson's special to the Boston Post of last
Saturday:
Mr.. Krtcham, Of New York, last week went
TO Mr.. Eobeson and said substantially: -
have stood the criticism of tho subcommittee
Of the Appropriations Committee on the Naval
bill as long as l propose TO. You have not
called meeting of the committee yet and
insist that you shall at once. / do not propose
10 suffer any longer for the designs that you
seem to-haye In mind. 1 want that subcom-
mittee called together and the Naval bill SUBJ
mitted TO 1t, or / shall understand the reason
why. / give you fair notice now that If you
do not call It together at once / shall resign
from it and from the Appropriations Commit
tee as well, and l shall accompany my resig-
nation with speech in the House exposing
your conduct and stating your tnaction." This
bold speech from the New York member seems
TO have frightened Robson, and no called the
subcommittee together.
We will bet 81 500 to / cent that GEN
eTal Ketcham, of New York, never said
any thing of the kind to Mr.. Robson. That
is to say, we will bet 1900 to that Mr.
Nelson lied.
And we will leave it to General Ketcham
himself to decide.
That ought to be considered fair propo
sition.
