CREDIT DUE THE SAMOANS.

1t is very gratifying to the friends
of the native Samoans, to find that
the favorable opinions they had
formed and expressed as to the
manly characteristics of that people.
have been so fully sustained by their
conduct at the time of the recent
naval disasters. Courage and hu-
manity are apt to go together 1t is
therefore not surprising that a race
who have shown themselves such
fair fighters and hard hitters. with
so little trace of treachery or wanton
cruelty, should have been found
prompt, daring and skillful, in the
work of rescuing and caring for the
crews of the wrecked warships.
Their services on that occasion.
especially in view of the fact that
several of them lost their lives in
rendering assistance to others, would
seem to call for some official recogni-
ton from the governments whose
officers and sailors were involved in
the disaster.

CYCLONES AND WHIRLWINDS.

The late storm at Samoa was I'm

The words cyclone, whirlwind and
tornado, are commonly, but incor

identical or interchangeable. They
are, in reality, quite different things.

objects, or even men, animals and
trees. Water-spOuts at sea are the
result of similar atmospheric whirls.
The terrific wind blasts. which
sometimes work such destruction in
the western portions of the United
States, are of the same character.

With the advance in sugar there
has been an advance IN Hawaiian
Commercial Company's stock, sales
having been made this week up to

credible, had they not happened so
often, and their effects been attested
by such muttitudes of competent
witnesses. The dust whirls which
are frequently seen in the streets,
and sometimes in the open country,
are nothing but miniature whirl-
winds.
A cyclone is something like a
whirlwind on a gigantic scale, inso-
much as the wind blows violently in
a circle, around a central point. But
/ there are some very important differ
ences. Instead Of having, like the
whirlwind or tornado, diameter
varying from a few feet to a few
hundred yards, the true cyclone has
a diameter Of several hundred miles.
| Owing chiefly to the size of the
circle, there is nothing that CORES
ponds accurately to the vortex of the
whirlwind or waterspOut. The ac-
ton extends over a vastly larger
space, and is never as violent at any
one point At the center of the
circular storm known as a cyclone,
there is a space Of comparative calm.
1t follows, of course, that at op-
posite points of the circle, the wind
Will be blowing in exactly opposite
directions. This explains the phen-
omenon often noticed in marine re-
ports, where a vessel encounters a
heavy gale blowing in a certain di-
rection, followed by brief period of
comparative calm, to be succeeded
in turn by an equally furious gale
from the opposite point of the com
pass. In such cases, the vessel has
simply passed through a cyclone,
near its centre. In case the transit
Is made nearer the circumference,
there will be a change in the direc-
ton of the wind, not generally
amounting to an entire reversal, and
there viii be no intervening period
of calm. Corresponding phenomena
will be, of course, observed when, in
stead of a vessel passing through a
storm, the storm is observed from
some point on the land, over which |
it passes.
1t is to be remembered that in all |
storms, whether Of the whirl-
wind or Of cyclone varieties, there
is, in addition to their rotary char
lcter, movement of the whole body
IF the disturbance along the earth's
somewhat as a wheel, which,
1t the same time that it revolves,
also moves forward. In the case of
yhirlwinds and water spouts, this
is visible to the eye, while,
n the case Of cyclones, it is demon
trated by a comparison of the di
ectiOn and force of the wind as OBJ
erVed at different times and places
Turing the continuance of the storm.
In the recent instance, the gale is
epOrted to have come first from the
). E., thence shifting to n. E. and
\, and finally ending from the West.
These changes in the direction of
he wind, taken in connection with
he long continued violence of the
torn, with no reported interval of
uiet, indicates two things, namely:
hat the sweep of the cyclone was
retty wide, and that the portion
assing over Apia was far within the
ircle, but not quite at It's centre. In
he spring of 1888 the Samoan ISL
nds were swept by similar cyclone,
'hich wrecked nine vessels. At that
me, as in the recent instance, the
ind revolved from S. e. by n. E.
nd n. w. to w, or in a direction
ontrary to that of the hands of a
latch.

Tho Heavy Rains and Thoir Effect
Condition OF Growing Crops.
WASHINGTON, June lG.-The week cad
ing June 10 has been warmer than usual
IN the States on the Atlantic Coast and
cooler In the central valleys from the
Gulf Coast northward 10 the Lake region
In Minnesota, the greatest departures from
the normal temperature being in the
Central Mississippi Valley. where the
daily temperature was from o. TO % lower
than usual. In the Upper Missouri Val.
ley, including Nebraska, Dakota and Min.
ncsoia, tho normal temperature for the
week prevailed. On the Pacific Coast Il
was decidedly warmer than usual, cspe-
elally In the grain regions, where the daily
excess ranged from To- 10 i2'. The thor.
NAL conditions for the season, from Janu.
airy 10 June 10, have differed but slightly
from the average Of the previous years;
throughout the Southern States Of the
Ohio and Mississippi Valleys aud Dakota
It Is from one TO two weeks carly.
There has been morn rain than usual
generally Throughout, all agricultural dis.
iricts in the central valleys and on tho At
lantic Coast, except in Southwest New
England and along the South Atlantic
Coast, where numerous showers are ro-
ported. Rains were unusually heavy over
the central and western portions Of the
cotton region and the tobacco regions Of
Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina,
Virginia and Southern Indiana, the heayi.
csi rains occurring In the Lower Mississippi
Valley, where they were greatly needed.
Although lees rain than usual occurred In
Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota and Dakota,
well distributed showers are reported from
these States, which, with previous rains,
will doubtless prove favorable for corn.
Tho large deficiency Of rainfall for tho
season previously reported over tho TO-
bacco region and Tennessee has been
greatly reduced by the recent heavy rains,
where the rainfall for the season now OK
ceeds 20 per cent. OF the normal. Gem
orally throughout tho Middle Atlantic
States, Eastern North Carolina, and from
Iowa and Nebraska southwark 10 the West
Gulf Coast, there has been moro rain than
usual.
At stations along the Ohio River and In
Northwestern Minnesota the rainfall for
the season has been less than 90 per cent.
Of the normal; but Il Is probable that the
timely rains In these sections have Inn
proved the crop conditions
Tho weather for the week was unfavor-
able for small grains In Minnesota and
Dakota, owing 20 the small amount Of
rain. In Iowa, Illinois, MISSOURI. Kansas
and Arkansas the crop conditions were
improved by the weather Of the present
week. Corn u reported as growing
rapidly, but In some sections Of Illinois
too much rain - reported. Wheat har.
vest Is In progress Ia Genital Kansas and
will commence In Illinois next week. A
short crop Of timothy and clover Ia now

Tennessee, owing to heavy daily rains and
little sunshine. In some sections OF these
States wheat h - been damag VI by nsec Is
and injured by excessive rains, although
cotton and tobacco is reported as growing
well, but dry weather is needed for cult
walton.
Reports from North Carolina, South
Carolina, Alabama and Louisiana indicate
that the weather was favorable to all
crops, which show decided improvement
since the recent rains. In Mississippi and
Texas the rainfall was excessive, and crops
have been more or less injured in some
sections, especially in Texas, where the
weather has been too cool for cotton.
The excessive rains, which have oc.
Cured over the greater PORTION Of the Mid
die States and New England, have been
attended by weather conditions which
have generally improved crops, although
farm work and cultivation was inter
rupted.
In New England all crops, including
corn, improved and are growing rapidly.
In Connecticut the weather has been es-
pccially favorble for the tobacco crop,
which is reported in fine condition.

In manitoba.

ST.. PAUL, MINI, June lG. Pioneer
Pres special from Winnipeg, Man, says;
The first crop bulletin Of the anitoba
Department OF Agriculture for this season
was issued today. Reports on the condi-
ton Of crops for June are given. Speaking
Of the wheat outlook, the bulletin says;
The crop was put in the ground this year
earlier throughout than in any other
year in the history Of the Province.
The seeding season was most IA
vorable one. The early part of
the spring was rather favorable for growth,
but toward the middle Of May the weather
became too cool, and growth was back
ward for some time after. After, lack OF
suiliciency of warm rain made the growth
slow, and on June in many parts II was
not so far advanced as was expected for 20
early season. Notwithstanding the
backwardness OF the season, however, the
opinion was generally expressed that the
crop would be large one. The area that
has been put under crop is much larger
than that Of any previous year, several
counties showing largely increased areas
The total area shown to be under crop is
623, 2i5 acres, being an increase over that
OF 1887 OF 1911 acres,
