storms And CIoudbursts.

DIR. Felix l.. Oswald, In Frank Lesles Monthly.
Neither dikes nor reservoirs could pre-
vent the ravages of sudden floods, and no
naval architect has thus far devised a plan
for the construction of a completely storm
proof ship, but experience has at least
taught us TO avoid perils which we cannot
resist The meteorological observatories
of sixteen different nations have been very
busy in the course of the last fifty years,
and If the direction of storm could be
predicted as successfully as its imminence,
disastrous floods and hurricanes would
rarely come unexpected. A gale originating
in the plains of Western Kansas, and keep
ing straight eastward course as far as st.
Louis, Missouri, may suddenly turn
southwest on striking the valley of the
Mississippi, and thus save Ohio and Penn
sylyania from the predicted visitation,
Rain-clouds that have discharged their
torrents all along the gulf coast from
Tampico to New Orleans and drenched
the plains of Alabama, may refuse their
showers to the table-lands of Northern
Georgia and dissolve away into ieecy
specks of vapor where their moisture was
perhaps most sorely needed in IA more con-
densed form. The most approved in
dcations of rain may prove delusive in
midsummer; still, the observations of
many years have facilitated the art of
weather-prediction by quite number of
tOlerably reliable general rules. Thus
storms have been found to have tendency
To blow from regions of high to regions OF
low baroIaetrical pressure, and to be pre-
ceded by "A rise and followed by de-
preston of temperature. North Of the
equator the curves of cyclones turn from

their fury IN the foothills of high noun

work of devastation on the plains beyond.
Counter-currents have tendency To de-

Commissioner Of Pensions, says that he

the examination Of every claim pending
in the Office on tho first day OF January
last, have every claim allowed that is
completed and calls for evidence made
in those not completed. This resul,
has been secured, General Raum's
letter says, very largely by
means Of two orders issued the
latter part OF December last. The 6rsi
order required that an examination ol
the claims pending in the office should
be made and that all cases which appear.
ed to be complete should be placed upon
the completed files" Tho adjudicating
divisions were directed to spend five
days in each week examining claims on
these files and one day exclusively to
making calls for additional evidence in
pending claims. AS a result Of the
examination made, 30,S57 claims were
put on the completed files"
"A subsequent order directing that
claims should be placed on file upon ap.
plication accompanied by statement Of
facts showing that the claims were com.

files" During the past three months

Tramrs Arrested.

LANA, o., April Gas the third sec
ton Of freight train No. .0S, enstbound on
the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne & Chicago
railroad, was pulling into a long side
track, a halt.mile wes. Of this city, at
$3.50 o'clock this afternoon, Conductor
Gardner J. Tuckey noticed six tramps
getting into box car Of the train. He
ordered them to leave tho train and
10 get out OF 1t lively. One Of the
tramps said to him, "You will be the
llrst man to get out" AT this moment
Tuckey 'grappled with tho man, when
one Of his companions discharged gun
inside tho car. Tho train was moving
during this occurrence and had reached
the main street crossing. The target
man, hearing the report Of the revolver,
ran to the car with flag stick, which
he gave to the conductor and cndeayor.
ed TO get into the car to aid him, but ia
trying to get hold OF the stick, Tuckey
was showed out OF the car door to the
ground. (..f
At the same time the tramps jumped
out Of the door on the north side OF the
train. Tuckey climbed over the train, and
as he alighted one OF the gang produced
u revolver, which Tuckey wrenched out
OF his hands. Two othere then caught
him, holding each OF his arms so that he
was completely powerless to defend
himself, when another one OF them
placed thirty.eight calibre revolver at
the conductors left side and fired, the
ball taking effect little below the heart.
The tramps then started to run north on
Main street. Tuckey brayely starte,! in
pursuit, bnt soon fell exhausted from
loss OF blood. There was n mum.
ber Of men on the street at the
time, who would have given
the conductor assistance, but they
could not cros9 over tho track, as the
train blocked the way. Tuckey was
picked up and carried to tho nearest
drug store, where he received medical
assistance. Tho doctors decided that
the wound wonld prove fatal. ii
The police went in search OF tho
tramps and arrested four OF them after
lively chase OF about three miles out Of
the city. They were identified by
phV ~ lhSui tG5 LLt 1uhu
who fred the shot. lie was exam
ined aud 3S.calibrc revolver with
ono empty chamber found on his per-
sou. Intense excitement was created
by the shooting aud q large crowd
gathered at the Jail ready to hang the
trampso on sight, but cooler judgment pre-.
vailed. Tuckey was removed 10 the
Burnet House, and his ante-mortelu
statement was taken by the Prosecuting
Attorney. Tho tramps were brought
over from the Jail and again identified
by the dying conductor. He picked out
one Of them as the one that did the
shooting. He gave his name as William
Thomas, Of Springfield, Ohio.
Tuckey is still living, but he cannot
last over two hours. He is member Of
the Conductors Brotherhood, and the
local members are giving him all possi-
bic care.

written. aud will soon publish book
entitled "Why the Solid South or Re.

Is undertakes 10 narrate, fairly and
diapassiopstely in concise and popular
form, the history Of the reconstructed
governments in each state, showing how
the Republicans obtained control and
how they lost it, the figures and facts as
the shrinkage OF values and increase of
debt and taxation under those govern
lments, and the prosperity OF the South
under present auspices.
The book speaks Of Abraham Lincoln's
death rs an appalling calamity to the
South, argues that Andrew johnson fol.
lowed strictly Lincoln's plan Of restora-
tion. and contends that il Lincoln had
lived he would have been able to defend
that plan against the assaults of Con-
gress. Each chapter is signed by its
author, who thus becomes directly re-
sr0nsibIe for the truth OF his statements; !;
and the claim OF the book in its preface
written by Gen. Herbert, it's
editor), is that in all the
chapters tho facts are under-stated
rather than over.siated. Therace ours
ton and race troubles are extensively
discussed; the statement is made that
there is no intention to agitate for the
repeal OF the 18th amendment or the de-
portation OF the negro. Educational and
material statistics Of many kinds are
given in support OF the contention that
the negro is prospecting. and that the
South is solving for itself the negro
question.
The book is dedicated to the business
men OF the North with a statement thai
they arc interested in continuing the
