Everything is in Readiness.
Special to The Statesman.
SAN ANTONIO, Nov. 2l.-Gen. R. I.
Dyrenforth and his party of rainmak-
ers will have everything in readiness
for the beginning of their experiments
here tomorrow. There was a little
playing with the clouds done this af-
ternoon, but it was merely test OF
the power of the new Rosellite explos-
i've and was not intended as an effort
at producing rain. There were two
ground charges fired. The first was
at 4:30 O'Clock, when twenty-pound
sti k of Rosellite was exploded
by means of an electric battery.
The conclusion was terrific, break
ing window panes and cracking
in residences within a half mile
radius. At the time of the discharge
there were few fleecy clouds passing
over. Within few minutes a BANK
OF black clouds gathered in the north
east and soon overspread the entire
sky. About o'clock another 2O-pouna
stick of rosselite was discharged, put
bHGond the fact that there was
user gathering of the clouds
|4o effect was perceptible. General
and DR.. Rossele were
highly pleased with the test OF
the new powder and assert th al
all that would have been required TO
bring down the rain was the explosion
of a balloon in mid air simultaneously
with heavier ground discharges. me
real work will begin tomorrow, ana
will commence with balloon ascen,

RETURNING TO WORK.
Homesteaders Seeking Their Old Places But
Many Are Turned Away.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, Nov. 2l.-The
strike having been officially declared
off grand rush was made this morn
ing by the workmen to get back to
work. A large number were turned
away, some with good prospects OF
securing their old positions in the
near future, while many were in
formed that they would be given nc
work under any consideration. 1t is
now plainly evident that the blacklist
is quite long, and those whose names
appear on the list will be forced tc
seek work elsewhere. The firm is in
clined to favor the old men as far as
possible, and there has already beer
q large number of men discharged tt
make room for old employees.

a perfect freedom to enjoy the gym.
nastic appliances, baths, reading room,
ETC., which the building will contain.
The state secretary has been tele-
graphed tor, subscription committees
appointed, and the work from this on
will be carried jealousy forward to a
successful finish.
The building will be an ornament to
Austin, a source of pride to her citi-
zens, and the association should be
assisted by what aid the people of
Austin can give them.
