storms on the Eearth and Moon.

Astonishment is often expressed at
the power of tornado to lift not only
men and animals, but trees and houses,
from the ground and carry them long
distance through the air. The tornado
at Steubepville, in Ohio, last week,
showed not only that it possessed this
p 'wer to a remarkable degree, but that
If it had occurred over the sea it would
have formed waterspout. When it
struck the Ohio river, after pursuing a
destructive course through the heart of
the town, it raised column of water a
hundred feet into the air, although at
that time its force seemed to be nearly
spent. This power Of suction possessed
by tornado is, however, not more
wonderful than the leaping motion which
the funnel Snapped cloud often exhibits,
The passage ola tornado is so swift, and
its effects are so stunning and confusing
that it cannot be regarded as surprising
til at trustworthy and careful observa-
tons of the phenomena of these storms
are hard to get, and that consequently
the meteorologists are only able to con-
trive theories of a very general nature to
account for them A glance at the sun
with a good telescope shows that the
great luminary is just now as much dis
turbed by storms as the earth. In one
place in particular, not far from the
western edge Of the suns disk, there is a
group of four great spots which exhibit
evidences Of eyclanic motion which for
chilly remind the observer of the West
ern tornadocs, although, instead of being
a few hundred yards in diameter, these
whirl- winds on the sun, if they may be
so called, included hundreds Of thou
sands of square miles in their sweep.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
So Judge Greer Deciayes the Act OF the
Eass legislature
Concerning +ne Selling of Pools On
Raees-The statute.

The question as to the right OF pool
rooms to sell on races run outside of the,
State or, indeed, in the State is about to be
settled by appeal, to the Supreme Court.
A number of indictments were recently
found against those running and employed
in the New Memphis pool-rooms, and the
cases were set for trial yesterday. The
encouragement stated to the Court that
he had agreed with the attorneys upon the
other side to take one case up on agreed
evidence, thus settling the whole question.
An impression has prevailed that those
pool-rooms selling on races run in the
State might be licensed but that it was
unlawful to deal in pools on races else
where. The defense made, however, is
that a recent act OF the Legislature is
capable OF another construction than that
already mentioned, and that under the
statute they may sell pools on-races run in
or out of the State. The statute is as
follows:
SECTION |, chapter 1875, page 49,. BE 1t enacted by
The General Assembly Of the State Of 1eaessce. That
to make any betting book or combination upon
any race run, trotted paced in this State OF in
any other State or in any State of the United
States, unless the said pool-selling, book-making
combination be conducted made under and
by the authority of lawfully chartered or ncorpo
rated blood horse or turf association or trotting
association stock agricultural or fair assoca-
tion in this State, and then only in the county in
which said association or fair may be located
This is the only act passed which men
tions pools. A former act making betting
a misdemeanor was construed by the Su-
preme Court to include pool-selling. As
the act quoted does not mention the first
act, and does not declare that it is ''hereby
repealed" Judge Greer decided it to be
unconstitutional. To the careful reader it
will at once appear that the writer of the
act intended to convey one impression
while the Legislature intended that it
should mean something directly opposite.
Read one way, it appears that pools
may be sold on races run outside OF the
State, and read it another, that they may
not. The lawyers who point out this pc
culiarity declare it to be one of the most
ingeniously worded bills ever presented to
the Legislature.
As stated, an agreed ease will be taken
to the Supreme Court for final settlement.
