Strange Conduct OF the Gulf stream

A Washington scientist has discov-
cred that the ~oft-recurring rain storms
to which the Atlantic coast has been
subjected this year is due to the near
approach of the Gulf stream,
says the Texas Siftings. Instead
OF keeping it's place as it should do, it
has swerved inland, INT this hot cur
rent of water, coming In contact with
the cold currents of air, causes the un-
usual humidity. A Boston scientist, a
spell ago, assured us that it was the
spots on the sun that caused our heavy
rains, but we think that the Gulf stream
explanation knocks the spots OFF the sun
theory. No one who has ever bathed
In the Gulf stream can fail to realize
how great q change it must effect in the
temperature of tho coast line when it
takes a sweep inland. But what can be
done about 1t? Captain Eads is dead,
else he would probably go before con
gress and ask an appropriation OF a few
millions to build a jetty hat would keep
the Gulf stream within its proper
bounds. A successor may spring up who
shall suggest some such plan for get
ting rid of the surplus.

Some Remarkable Instances OF Aver

have violent coughing fits, swelling of

the g X t~wenty-four hours. limiting at
these peculiar antipathies and aversions,
Montague remarks that there have
been men who more feared an apple
than n cnnnonball. Zimmerman tells
of n lady who could not bear to touch
either silk or satin, and who won d
shudder and almost faint if by acct

Of secretaries two are of tho opinion that the
