Thunder Rain.

Between ordinary rain and thunder
rain, /. Palmieri says, the only differ
ence is the more abundant development
of electricity in what has received the
name of thunder rain. Generally the
raining cloud must be regarded as a
constantly flowing source of electricity.
There can be no lightning without rain
and thunder The so-called harvest

A MAN IN AN ICE BLOCK.
He is Frozen Up Completely, but is
Finally Thawed Out.

Finally Thawed Out,
LACROSSE, WIS.,, March 29.-Peter
Appleby, druggist of this city, quar-
relied with his wife. In fit of passion he
dashed out of the house after hurting a
glass jar at her head. He was seen run
ming in the direction Of the Lacrosse
river, and nothing being heard of him for
three weeks Mrs. Appleby publicly an
nOunced that her husband had committed
suicide by drowning. She at once be-
came engaged to August Tiara, a youth
who assisted Appleby in his drug store.
Willie Christmas and Timothy Joiner,
two lads, were playing on the banks OF
the river this morning when they spied a
big block OF ice floating 10 or 30 feet from
shore. The ice was unusually clear. The
lads noticed black object inside it. Their
curiosity was aroused. Taxing a boat
they rowed out to the ice, and throwing a
rope around it tOwed it to land. Then
they saw that the black object was the
figure of man. The ice had formed
about foot thick all around him from
the top of his head to the sOles of his
feet.
The lads summoned assistance. The
ice was lifted out OF the river and taken
to neighboring hotel, where it was
placed near a hot stove. 1t rapidly
melted away, exposing the body of the
man inside. One of the walters recog-
nized him as Druggist Appleby. After
he had completely melted out of the ice,
restoratives were applied. In a short
time he had recovered sufficiently to ask
questions. When told the day of the
month he said that he evidently must
have been frozen up for three
weeks, it being just three weeks
since the day when he left his
wife in anger. He says that he rushed
down to the Lacrosse river to commit
suicide. He plunged into the water. but
it was 80 chilly that he climbed back to
the bank. Then recOllecting that he had
phial of laudanum in his pocket he
drank the contents and lay down by the
river to sleep the sleep of death. The
Lacrosse must have overlooked him and
receded number of times. thus causing
the ice to form around him. Finally a
block floated down stream with Appleby
inside of it.
When his wife was told OF the occur
renee she consented to give up tue Young
clerk, forgive her husband, and take him
back to her.

Moody and sankey Depart DesPOn-
denoy in Base Ball Circles.
CHARLESTON, March 29.-Moody and
Sankey closed their mission here last
night with a monster prayer-meeting, at
which nearly 1900 persons were present.
These meetings have continued since
Wednesday last, and have been more gen
orally attended than any religious meet
ings ever before held in Charleston. The
Agricultural Hall was used for the pur-
pose and 2,200 chairs were placed in it,
All that could be procured in the CITY. J
The hall has been crowded daily and night
ly by men and women. NOcolOred people
were admitted, special services being
held for them elsewhere The pastors Of
the Presbyterian, Baptist, Methodist and
Lutheran churches were present each day
on the platform. Not single Episcopal
liam pastor was present. The expenses OF
the revival, which amounts, it is said, to
nearly $4,000, were met by contributions
from the various churches. 1t is said that
some Of the Episcopal churches cOntribu-
ted, but none of the rectOrs we're present.
j is difficult to say what has been the re-
suit of the revival.
MAGIC OF MooDY's TALK.
The magic of Moody's talk and the
singing Of Sankey certainly attracted
large audiences, and during the week
probably $50 men attended the inquiry
meetings, winch were held in an adioin-
ing church, yet there was never at any
one of the meetings the slightest display
OF that emotion which Is generally seen

per Ia the City.
DARIEN, GA, March 29.-''I have come
down on special business" said Col.
Gibbs, special agent of the Treasury De-
partment, after having entered the Gazette
Office Friday morning. 81 have been in
structed by the Treasury Department to
investigate a charge preferred against
you by one OF your fellow citizens.o
The Information acted like an electric
shock on Deputy Collector Grub. Being
fully conscious of having violated no rule
guiding his official conduct his astOnlsh-
ment was but natural. 1t appears that
during office hours, when no Captains
were in town TO clear, or, in fact, when
his presence at the custom house was UNI
necessary, he had occasionally repaired
10 the Gazette Office, few yards distant,
and there given helping hand at type
setting, etc. This fact one OF his friends"
had reported TO WASHINGTON, and Special
Agent Gibbs was sent here TO investigate
Col. Gibbs thoroughly sifted the matter
and left here convinced that the charge
was unworthy of further consideration.
In reply to his inquiries the merchants
eagerly expressed their praise OF Mr..
Grub, and, not satisfied with this, they.
without any solicitation, got up paper
testifying TO Mr.. Gruhb's excellent con-
duct OF the office, which they presented
TO COL. Gibbs with the request that It be
forwarded TO the Treasury Department.
The paper in question was signed by
every shipper in the city.

Boston, March 29.-Alfred IL. Schu-
maxi was arraigned this morning charg-
ed with aiding and abetting the suicide
OF his room mate. Gustave Desmet, on
Thursday last. The case is the first OF
the kind that mas ever been tried here,
and the prisoner, if found guilty, will be
liable for murder. According to Schu-
makPs story, he and Desmet were init
mate friends. On Thursday, being out Of
work, they walked out together. Desmet
was depressed, and laughingly said that
he contemplated suicide, but Schumaki
paid no attention to his threat. Desmet
asked Schumakl TO buy him twenty
cents worth Of cyanide of potassium to
polish brass with. Schumaki applied for
IL In two stores, but was refused, as he
mad no physicians prescription. Desmet
left his friend in the street and went of
alone, returning soon afterward. Tho
two drank together and became some
what intoxicated. They went home,
where Desmet removed part OF his clothes
and went TO sleep on the bed. Suddenly
he rose, exclaimed "Well. Al, Pm gone"
and dropped TO the floor dead. Schumaki
is about 30 years OF age, and feels his
position keenly.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, March 9.-ihe
Florida spring exhibit Of fruits, flowers,
farm and garden products was brought TO
a close at II O'Clock Saturday evening,
after week Of very successful and inter-
esting display OF the matchess produc-
tiOns of the state in this line. The dis
play OF oranges Of all varieties, as fresh,
plump, juicy and sound as though no
trOst had ente red the boundary line OF the
state, was simply superb and W Onderful;
while the exposition of vegetables Of the
finest and most luXuriant appearance
was the admiration and comment of all
who visited the exhibit during the week.
one exhibitor, Richard Fries, whose place
is Just across the river from Jacksonville,
at Arlington, had no less than 63 sepa-
rate and distinct varieties OF edible green
vegetables grown upon his own place
ana IN the open air during the last two
months.
The display OF strawberries was also
remarkably fine. In the final orange con-
test, the points to be judged being quail
lty, taste and appearance, Florida took
nrst premium on the two first named,
California on color and general appear
ance. The judges were selected from
among Northern visitors, gentlemen en-
tirely uninterested and unprejudiced.
The exhibit has been quite largely attend
ed, especially by Northern tourist, sOjourn-
ing in the city and IN this respect at
least cannot ail to 20 far toward removing
many false and erroneous impressions
formed of the extent OF the injury done
the State by the Unprecedented cold win
ter. 1t must be remembered that nearly
all OF the oranges here exhibited had been
picked from the trees during the last Of
February and the early weeks of the pres
ent month, long after the great cold spell.

out Mountain.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, March 29.-An
extraordinary rainstOrm is prevailing In
this section. A severe storm prevailed
last night, and it has been raining at in
tervals all day. Tonight, however, the
climax was reached, and the rainfall was
extraordinary, surprising all precedent.
The effect is very demOralizine to the rail-
roads. A scene of awful magnificence was
produced on Lookout mountain tonight
IN consequence Of the storm. A bluff
ranging in height from 125 to $50 feet
forms the base of the mountain in front
OF the river for nearly mile. The rain
storm flooded the entire side of the noun
tain, and tonight a waterfall is dashing
over chat bluff with roar like Niagara.
II is nearly mile in width.
The railroad tracks at the foot of the
mountain are covered with stones and
debris, and the trains on the Nashville
and Chattanooga, Alabama Great South
eTn and Memphis and Charleston rail-
roads are abandoned for the night in con-
sequence. All trains on the Western and
Atlantic railroad are also abandoned, and
it is feared slides on the Georgia division
of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor-
gia will force the abandonment of trains.
A raft was broken to pieces in the river
by the storm and IL men were precipitated
into the water. They had proVidential
escapes from drowning.

From TIE YeD York Tribune.
HALIFAX, March 27.-The American
hshlng schooner Bertha May, Capt. Nc
INNS, from Gloucester, arrived here yes
terday and put in for harbor. She is the
nrst American fisherman to arrive here
since the PRONUNCIATION of the official
warning that the treaty of 1918 will be
vigorously enforced. She will sail in the
morning. A telegram from Nuremberg
says mat an American fisherman there
mas Deen prohibited from shipping Cana
dams as a portion of her crew. The
dominion Government takes the ground
mat the only possible excuse for
an American fisherman putting into
Canadian port is for harbor, wood and
water, and then it can remain only twen-
ty-Iour hours. Consul General Phelan ar
CUES mat there is nothing IN the treaty to
prevent Americans having caught fish in
deep water and cured them, from landing
them In marketable condition at any Ca
hadlan port and transshipping them in
bond to the United States by either rail or
vessel. 1t would appear that refusal to
permit transshipment will be a violation
Oh Jhe general bonding arrangement be-
tween the TWO countries and might lead
10 retallatOry measures tending TO demon
allze the Canadian flour and gram trade
via New York, Boston and Portland. 1t
Is the first important question that will
arise between Canada and the United
states growing out OF the fishery embro-
gllO. Inc extent OF the transshipment of
hsh may be judged from the fact that dur
ing the lrst four months after the abro-
CATION OF the treaty over 10000 barrels of
mackerel were shipped to Boston in bond
from the strait of Cans0 alone.
