ORIGIN OF CYCLONES.
Tho Theory Advanced by One OF the Lead
Ing Scientists of the Age.

Tho Theory Advanced by One OF the Lead
Ing Scientists of the Age.
In recent paper on the "Conserva.
ton of Energy in tho Atmosphere"
DR.. Warner Siemens gives the follow.
ing theory of tho origin of cyclones
The comparative vacuum formed al
the center of a cyclone can produce
suction only in the direction of the
axis of the cyclone, thus either raising
the water upon the surface over which
it rotates, or drawing down air from
the higher regions Of the atmosphere
The existence of such descending
current Of air within . tornado is con.
firmed by the clear sky and quiet all
often observed at its center. We must
imagine, says Dt. Siemens, local
cyclone as produced by an impulse of
superheated air, due to some local cause
or other, given at the boundaries
of an upper and lower tract of
disturbance Of the neutral equi-
librium OF an atmosphere at rest,
which reaches the boundary of
the upper cooled strata of air, which
have a tendency to descend. We must
thus have an outer descending current
formed round the ascending one, by
means of which as much air descendS
as has been carried up by the ascending
current, If the disturbance of equi.
librium embraces extended upper and
lower strata of air, the descending
masses will produce an increase OF
pressure in the neighborhood of tho
cyclone, gradually extending to the
surface of the earth, and on the other
hand into the highest regions of the
air, and transfer its UiS UiUd continually
into new superheatcd masses Of alI
which ascend in the cyclone, while a
part of the descending external cyclone
circulating in the same direction as
cends again with the inner, and trans
fers ii to part of the ris UiUa gained
in the higher regions of the air. The
course of the center of the cyclone is
then determined by the direction of the
mean velocity of all the air masses
forming the cyclone, and its duration
is that Of the disturbance of the neutral
equilibrium of the atmosphere which
called it forth and maintains it. The
local ascending current, by carrying
dust and particles with it, may also
produce rain by condensing the aque.

THE OLD MANS PET.
A Touching Incident Which Bears the
stump Of Truth.

A Touching Incident Which Bears the
Stamp of Truth.
Two years ago, n shoemaker of Augs-
burg, in Germany, made up his mind
to come to America, where his two sons
had settled. The shoemakcr's wife had
died, and he was left alone in the world,
the only live things in the house with
him being his pet dog and a cage of
tinches He gave his pet dog in charge
of one of his neighbors, and as for the
tinches, he sold them, because he was
poor and needed the money to help him
ovor the sea, He was very sorry to
part with one of the bulllinches, .
bright bird that had been taught by the
shocmaker's dead wife to whistle soft,
low song from beginning to end, with,
out so much as false note. But he
sold tho bird with the others, babe good.
bye to all his friends at Augsburg, and
set sail from the old world to the shin
ing shores of the new.
When he reached America he went 10
live with one of his sous IN Brooklyn
To his surprise, he found that both of
his BOYS were well-to-do, and though
he had intended to open a shoc-shop,
they told him that he must not do that,
but must pass the rest of his life in ease
and peace.
So, for the better part of two years,
the old shoemaker of Augsburg has
lived in Brooklyn, and in spite of tho
fact that he has not "stuck to his last. "
he has been contented. Nevertheless.
he often thought about Augsburg, and
about his pet bullfnch, wondering
whether the finch had found an owner
in the person of some Prince, "for that
bird was fit to whistle before King"
said he proudly.
One day, just previous to the past
Christmas, the old German saw gray
squirrel in q cage in window of a bird
store in New York, and stopped to
watch its antics. As he stood there he
heard the whistle of a bulltinch, and 81
he stepped quickly in. In large cage
near the door were dozen iinches, and
when the shoemaker approached the
cage one of the iinches sidled along his
perch toward him and whistled softly.
The old man of Augsburg was already
bent Uf boiy, but he excitcdly bent still
lower, so that the finch could whistle in
his car, and that the pleased bird did
with much gleeful sweetness. The
shoemaker was more than delighted, he
was overoyed; for indeed the finch
was his old-time pet, the fine whistler
that his wife had taught in tho little
shop of Augsburg.
So the shoemaker bought the finch
and took it home with him. He learn.
cd from the dealer that the. bird had
been bought Of q firm of bird dealers in
Bremen last summer, and had been
brought to America with two dozen
trained whistlers Of its kind Unitel
Presbyterian.

Number of Hairs in a Head.


An eminent German has undergone
the enormous labor of counting the
number of hairs in heads of four differ
ent colors. In a blonde he found 140,-
400 hairs; in a brown, 1O9, 440; in n
black, 102, ,962, and in n red one, 49,,
740. What the red and black heads
wanted in number of hairs was made
up, however, in the greater bulk of the
hairs Individually, and in all probabili-
ty the Scalps were all pretty equal in
weight. 1t is to the fineness and null
tiplicity of hairs that blonde tresSes
owe the rich color and silklike charac.

artists have so loved to dwell upon..-
