ONE MORE UNFoRTUNA1E.-The other
week a tenderfoot who said he had
been a reporter on the Pittsburg Chlon-
lcle came along and struck us for a job
and we set him to work Monday on
the agricultural department of the
paper. We warned him against the
strange climate OF this strange country
and that he must not attempt to han
die anything until lie first asked the
name of it. After two or three hours
he got the swellhead and went out to
chin with the boys and that afternoon
we buried him. He had heard tell of
jackass rabbits, but had never seen
one, and somebody made him believe
that Col. Moore's mule, which was tied
near the Post Office was one of the
gentle creatures of the plains. He
was looking to see if the rabbits feet
were webbed when the calamity came.
Wortam bum, which is latin for he
didn't know it was loaded, and that
we have his latch-key, five cents in
money and a summer necktie, which
we will forward to his friends on re-
quest.-Arizona Kicker.

on a certain day. and thus decide, be-
forehand, what the weather would be
at that place. But, how and why I
Does the air always take the same
path, and move with the same speedf
1t would be easy to tell You how
and why, but that is not the best way
to study this matter. Let US first find
out how men learn to tell the different
kinds of weather. 1t is easy enough
to say that this is a warm day. but
that is not exact. We must know pre-
cise1y how hot or cold il is. 1t will
not do to say that the wind is light or
strong. We must know just how
many miles an hour it is travelling.
Besides all this, we must be able to
weigh the air. to tell whether it is
pressing heavily IN the earth or rest
ing lightly on land or sea. You can
not tell these things by the mere feel
ing on your face and hands, and we
have to consult the machinery men
invented to make these measure
ments.
High up at the top of some tall
building, in all the great cities of the
States, is a man watching and
weighing the air. He measures the
speed of the wind and studies the d.
rection it takes. He looks at the
clouds, and measures the fall of the
rain. He is the signal service obser-
yer, and 1t is from his studies of the
weather that men have learned to tell
what it will be tomorrow.
Next week we viii climb up to his
lofty tower, and watch him ct work.

Blazer. l never met her before. She
was just splendid, you know-uncom-

about ten o'clock, / asked her if |

didn't care. So We started, and struck
out for the Woodbury. pike; and
| asked her If she was a neighbor to
the Smileys, and she said she wasn't.
Then we walked on, and on, and on,
until we got clear out into the country,
and | inquired if her father was IN the
farming business, and she said no. So
We kept going, and pretty soon it be-

well, not much. But when we'd
gone about half a mile farther she said
she thought she saw a highway robber

as pitch, you know-and wouldn't | /,
go in advance and see what it was. !,
So walked boldly on, and the first
