Fluctuations OF RAIxr.LL-Of

FLUCTUATIONS OF RAINFALL.-Of all
current meteorological phenomena, rain
fall Is the most irregular, both as to time
and place. The rainfall Of one year
may he double or treble that CT the wear
before or the year following. st any
one station these fluctuations are ordiu-
aTily so great as to thoroughly mask any
secular change. 1t may vary greatly
from place to place. even though tue dis
tauce be small, while The change Of The
location OF gauge from the ground to
the top OF house may make it give very
different indications. For these reasons
ii Is apparent that reliable results, in re-
gard TO a general increase or decrease
OF rainfall, are TO be obtained only by
combining large number of observat
ions scattered over many years and over
the greatest possible variety of condit-

& TROUBLESOME STAPLE.-Cotton is
the most troublesome staple of the
worlds commerce. From the hour Of
picking until the moment it passes out
of the loom as fabric IL is susceptible Of
a million changes, each one of which
affects its value On the market. i bale
of cotton is so sensitive to heat and
moisture that the weight varies every
minnie of the day, as you will find by
actual experiment. On this account buy
ers and sellers are represented at the
congresses by men who are styled
''weighers, but whose duties are some
thing more than recording weights or
checking off receipts. On their judge
ment the value of shipment or consign
ment can be increased or diminished by
several hundred dollars, hence factories
are careful to place only their clearest
headed and most reliable men at the
scales. A daub of mud at one corner Of
bale may justify rebates with one pack
age, while on another the sellers repTes-
entative would not consent to any deduc.
tons. The deleterious effects of expos
ure to weather can be estimated at q
glance by skilful man, but, neverthe-
less, the process of weighing is accom-
panied by more frequent contention than
any other part of the business Then
you must remember that if any crooked
work has been done, bale of cotton can
be traced all the way from the mill
through a hundred hands until you
finally reach the planter who sold it in
the first Observation-Disclosures.

DIFFICULTY CAUSED BY THE NEW CANULA-
A DANGEROUS THROAT TROUBLE
Berlin June 1.-THE Emperor became feverish
tonight. He still experiences difficulty in swallow
ing, Dr. Howell has returned from London.
The National Zeitung' says: The insertion
of the canula in the Emperors throat causes diff
iculty because the trachea has become so enlarged
that the tube no longer fills it completely and pus
coming from the upper part can thus flow into
the ar-tubes. To prevent this a rubber ring has
been fitted on the canula so as to fill the space
between the tube and the wall of the trachea
In order remedy the dryness of the throat arising
from the difficulty in swallowing the Emperor takes
frequent sips, day and night, of lulSewarm milk
and whiskey"
