strange and peculiar points of the phe-
nomenon. The distinctive motions of the
tornado were remarkably uniform. There
were accessories which made track, into
the lake. The essayists gave graphic
blackboard illustration of the paper, and
depicted the experiences, sensations, and
beliefs of the unfortunate people who
happened to be caught in the track of the
tornado. The whirlwind took rotary
motion from right to left, opposite the
course of the hands of watch. The pa
per was discussed at some length by the
physicists. Prof. Rowland stated there
was nothing in the rotary mo-
ton of the tornado which
called for scientific investigation. In
tornado witnessed by him in
he saw two clouds the air and
the phenomena of lightning passing be-
tween them. The United States signal bu-
reau has derived conclusions from six
hundred different tornados, but nothing of
this character has come within the o5ser-
vations of the service. 1t is absurd to
conclude that the force Of the tornado and
its destrUctiveness to objects with which
it comes in contact, is from electric infu-
ence. The pressure or power of electricity
| cannot be fractional part o. an ounce to
the square inch. There is great energy de-
veloped in heating the air and then having
it become influenced by the action Of the
law of gravitation. At future tornados
the scientists of the signal service will pay
especial attention to the observations Of
| the particular courses of winds during the
prevalence of tornados. Adjourned.

for Evil Deeds in the Municipal Court Z
Unless the chances very materially i'm
prove it is going to go hard with John
SlatterIy, the man who is charged with
smuggling the bartender OF the Little Joker
saloon with stone. The latter is at the
hospital and grave doubts are entertained
of his recovery. Slatterly was before the
court yesterday and the case was continued
to September 1st.
James Butcher was charged with steal
ing COW, particulars Of the affair having
been published hitherto. The hearing was
continued until today.
Ed. Downey has an abnormal appetite
lor the weed. At least this is the infer
ence, for yesterday morning he caboaged
a cady Of tobacco from the ST. Paul Pack
ing company. Officer Kennally took hi N
in and he will saw wood for ninety days.
Jack Harvey said he was hard up, and
he looked it. Yesterday he was charged
with stealing a whip from q buggy belong
ing to Snyder, the candy man. The hear
ing resulted il his discharge.
Geo. Kanterman, who was implicated in
the row at the Little Joker, was up for dis
orderly conduct. He will have chance to
explain September 1.
F. WinsIow was booked for embezzie-
ment. He was arrested by Officer Gibbons
and the charge was preferred by the mans
ger of the Railroad News company. Win
slow was a newsman on the Mimi
toba route. The life was too gay for
him, it being his wont to blow in his earn
ings in gambling. The first trip he made
he blew in $50, which was covered by a
forfeit for that amount. The next trip he
lost $50 in the same way and then he quit.
After this his arrest followed. The hearing
will take place to-day.

Section B-PR7JSicS.
THE TORNADO.

This section met at the noon hour and
was opened with the presentation of a paper
by P. R. Hay upon ''The Tornado at Ra-
cine" The beginning of the tornado
made loud noise very like unto that
made by train passing over a railroad
bridge. The general direction Of the
storm was north of west. Caledonia sta
ton, on the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
road, was struck by lightning.
The thermometer registered "a
degrees, but fifteen minutes after
the storm passed the thermometer sud-
denly raised to "a degrees. The barom
eter marked 90. In Racine The movement
or velocity was not over thirty-fve miles
per hour. The essayist noticed peculiar
odor after the passage Of the storm. be-
ing unquestionably between sulphur and
phosphorus. Many families went TO their
cellars and were by this means saved from
injury. They had time to take this pre-
caution after having witnessed the de-
struction Of neighbOr's houses only few
hundred yards distant. Everything was
swept clean and was thrown toward the
center Of the track, and not
unfrequently towards the direction of the
passing storm. The glass in the windows
was thrown toward the center of the
track, which was narrow and often oscil
lating in its course. One person thought
a locomotive had broken loose and q
whole train was sweeping through the
town Of Racine destroying every object
with which it came in contact. One
woman, stricken with terror, went to her
cellar and remained there for hours, alb
solutely refusing to be comforted or
to come out. She verify believed ''the day
of Judgment had come" This is the only
instance known of a tornado reaching
Lake Michigan. The water was caught
and taken up in spouts from one to 800
feet in the air. The water was then thrown
over to the outside, forming a cascade.
There were five or six water spouts. One
passed out into the lake at least half a
mile distant from the main course of the
storm. There were two flashes of light
ming as IL passed on 10 the lake, but no
thunder was heard. There was no well
formed funrel shaped clouds, but they
looked similar TO the smoke pouring and
rising rapidly up in the center as from a
gigantic mandatory chimney. The
Racine Academy of Science had devoted a
whloe week to the consideration Of the

The Attempted Ytsit to st. PauE.


Yesterday afternoon was the time set
for the American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science-in annual session
at Minneapolis since Wednesday last-to
visit St. Paul, the capital and commercial
city of the state. The invitation for the
visit was extended by committee of the
St. Paul Academy of Science, on
Thursday last, and formally
accepted by the American association the
following day, Friday. On Saturday at
the general session of the association,
President Young formally ammo unced the
acceptance and that the association would
leave Minneapolis. in train provided by
the St. Paul committee, so as to arrive
here at p. NJ, when they would be met
by the local committee with carriages
and driven about the city,
after which at p. N. there
would be a formul reception by Governor
Hubbard, Mayor O'Brien and citizens, in
the chamber of the house of representa-
tives at the capitol, to be followed by re-
freshments.
There was no misunderstanding of the
announcement by the officers and mem
bers of the association, or the members OF
the local committee. Acting upon it.
the local committee made their ar.
rangement and announced their pro-
gramme in the Sunday mornings issue of
the city papers.
In pursuance OF this programme, a
special train of engine and five coaches
was engaged of the Manitoba road TO bring
the association from Minneapolis ana re-
turn them to that city after the reception
This train, IN charge OF members of the
local committee, was at the Minnea polls
depot al II H., and the fact so reported tc
the association. Then, and not till then
was the St. Paul local committee informed
| that the Minneapolis local committee had
| arranged for the association TO make Their
visit to st. Paul by way of Minnehaha and
| Fort Smelling, with brief stops at these
| points, but assuring the representatives OF
the St. Paul committee that the chan
| ges should make no difference in
the arrival of the visitors in st. Paul.
! Thus assured, the Manitoba train engaged
| to bring the visitors here was run back to
the city.
In pursuance of the published pro-
gramme, and the promise Of the Minneap-
oils local committee, nearly one hundred
public conveyances, engaged for the pur.
pose and a large number of citizens with
their private carriages, were at the union
depot at O'Clock p. N. yesterday to re-
ceive the visitors, and escort them aboui
the city prior to the reception at the CAPT
toll, etc. The committee, citizens and car
riages waited patiently, but the visitor:
appeared not. Finally at five minutes tt
5 O'Clock, two hours late, lacking five min
utes, aud when nearly all the citizens, whC

he'd gathered to do honor to the distin-
guished visitors had retured to their homes
and many of the public conveyances had
when discharged, the train with the
visitors pulled up at the
depot. OF course, the whole
programme was spoiled, and the reception
was most dismal failure. The visitors
were gotten into carriages, however, and
driven to the capitol, and all congregated
in Representative hall. E. o. Sweeney,
Esq, president of the academy of science
and chairman of the local committee, in.
troduced Mayor O'Brien, who welcomed
the association to st. Paul in a few happy
remarks. in which he recognized the great
work being done by the association, closing
with the expression that it was greatly to
be regretted that the programme had been
so unfortunately disrupted, and the wish
that our citizens might have the oppor-
tunity on some future occasion to demon
strate their appreciation and good wishes
in more betting manner.
For a response Prof. @. A. Young, of
Princeton, president of the association,
introduced Hon. Q. D. Cox, of Ohio, ex-
secretary of the interior, who compli-
mented the city on the evidences every
where observable of material prosperity
and also for the appreciation of science
and higher culture, as shown in the mag
nificent school edifices, fine churches, pub
lie libraries, etc.
Prof. Daniels, curator of the academy
of science, followed in q few general
remarks of welcome. to which Major
Powell responded. Gov. Hubbard was
then called out and reiterated the welcome
he extended the association at their open
ing session in Minneapolis. This con-
cluded the speech making, most of the
members accepting an invitation to visit
the rooms of the Academy of Science,
after which they we're escorted to the
Metropolitan and Merchants hotels, where
suppers had been provided. These dis
posed OF, the visitors at $40 returned to
Minneapolis greatly regretting the dis
appointing break in the programme, but
nevertheless quite well pleased with their
visit.

Scientific Notes.

Prof. Rowland, of Baltimore, spoke IN
sarcastic terms of P. R. Hoy's paper on
"The Tornado at Racine" read before the
section in physics yesterday.
The committee on the best method of
teaching science in the public schools has
its report in course of preparation, and
will soon submit it to the association.
The paper against the Iceberg Theory
of the Drift" by the eminent author,
Prof. J. D. Dana, is most interesting and
will be discussed this morning by geolo-
gists entertaining the opposite theory.
James MacFarlane will read paper to-
day in section E on the Earthquake at
New Madrid, Mo-, in 1911. 1t is doubtful
whether the phen Smenon was an earth
quake; it may have been something else.
At yesterdays session of the A. A. A. S.
the committee on geological nomencla-
ture reported that it was gathering sug-
gestions, with view of sending q COM
prehensive report to the geological con-
gress, which will soon meet at Berlin, Ger
many.
Prof. A. A. Julien, of New York, in con-
versation with GLOBE representative,
stated that in his department of science,
petriology, not one text book has yet been
published in this country, though the
science has been studied for more than if
teen years.
The animal remains on exhibition by
Prof. VIM. McAdams in room four, base
ment floor, of the university, are great
curiosities and well worth examination.
The professor is an ardent archaeologist
and has been member of the A. A. A. s.
for a dozen years.
Major Powell, of the United States gov
eminent survey, defended American text
| books on science before the association
yesterday, and said no elementary works
published in any country equaled them
Dana's work on geology he pronounced the
best work published on the subject.
Major Powell, of the government geo
logical survey, is patriotic as we'll as scien
tific. At the general session of the A. A.A
S.yesterday he objected to the committee:
sweeping assertion regarding the low
standard of American text books on sci
ence, and firmly asserted that no foreign
publication equaled J. D. Dana's work OF
geology, and that the American elemen.
tary works of science were the best pub
lished anywhere.
Pope's aphorism, ga little learning is E
dangerous thing" is occasionally exempli
fed at the convention of the scientists
now IN session here, to the great amuse
ment of those who have drunk deep al the
'Pierian spring" of science. The lesser
lights are more demonstrative and dog
matte in their theories, and display little
pedantry now and then while the profound
scientists and investigators are extremely
unpretentious and remarkably free from
pride of intellect and of superior attain
ments in scientific lore. The language Of
the latter is plain and simple, while thu
little luminaries are inclined to ostenta
tious dislsy. AS Prof. Cope said yester
day, Language very often expresses moth
ing" an assertion which caused the audi
ence to smile. Great thoughts can b,
clothed in simple language, while insig-
nidcant ideas are frequently hid in gorge

ST. Louis Churc&.

Last Sunday the ST. Louis church
was crowded to its utmost 3 capaci-
ty and presented a most brilliant sight,
the reason being the dedication Of the
magnificent organ recently presented to
the congregation. The affairs were taste
fully decorated and reflect great credit on
the ladies in charge. The sermon for the
occasion was delivered By the Rev. Guillot
who is now on a visit to St. Paul. The
ceremonies were of the most imposing
character and Mons Greget, the organist,
brought out in full force the best features
of the organ, at the offertoire, and its So
nority and sweetness of tone was highly
appreciated by all present. The choir
seemed to have been enthused by the Occa-
sion and the solos by the Misses Dufrene
and Demnp!es were rendered with al eff
feet highly commendable. st the closing
OF the services the pleasant duty devolved
upon tbs Rev. Il. Lapsalus: TO express the
sentiments OF the congregation, and in
fitting words thanked Mr.. z. I.angovin for
his generous donation, and TO show their
appreciation begged leave 10 present
him with handsome gold headed cane.
Mr.. Langevin was deeply moved, and
answered but briefly, stating that the sat
isfact!on and thanks of the congregation
he considered ample reward, bus would
always hold in grateful remembrance the
gift of which he was just the recipient.
At the afternoon service the church was
again filed to hear vespers sung by eleven
male voices, in conformity with the old
Roman custom.
at the benediction Miss Emma LANCE
win sang solo for the first time very
creditably. Thus ended d happy and
