Curious Showers.

M. Peltier has put a frog shower OH rec
ord as having happened within his own ex-
p%erience. He speaks of seeing the frogs
fall on the roofs of the houses and rebound
thence on to the pavement below. A mud
shower occurred along the Union Pacific
railway at Onaga on the 4th Of April. The
rain, we are assured, commenced early in
the day, and soon the south and east sides
of all the houses were covered with yellow
clay.
A Union Pacific train which ran through
the storm had it's windows covered, and
the headlight was so completely plastered
that the light was shut in, Ind the train ran
in darkness into Rossville, where the mud
had to be scraped off. As far east as Tope,
ka the windows showed that the edge of
the mudstorm had extended this far. 1t is
said to have been even more severe so miles
northwest.
Blood rain and black rain are only varie.
ties of this phenomenon. OF the latter we
hear nothing worth speaking of nowadays,
but an almost historic shower of this sort
fell ut Montreal in the earlier part Of this
century and enveloped the then youthful
city in a black pail, which must have beer
worse than a prime London fog, seeing that
it gave the Inhabitants the idea that the
last day had come, or vas at least on the
point Of coming.
Blood rain is caused by the presence OF
infinitely little plants, animacules, Or min
erals in the globules. In one instance of i;
shower that fell ut Bristol and in the
Bristol channel, the analytical examina
tion showed that the red color was due Il
ivy berry seeds. In medieval times blood
rain was u prodigy. In the east it was con
nected with the belief that man was pro
duced from blood that foil from heaven

The chiropodist had just moved into his
new parlors, Before his arrival they had
been occupied by a dentist. Though as yet
no white marble foot upon the pavement
informed the uninitiated that within dwelt
an operator upon corns and bunions at a
reasonable rate, yet such was the case.
A rushing business had been In progress
all the morning. At noon the chiropodist,
u rather tinlid and youthful appearing man,
started to 90 out to his lunch, when the
door opened and a young girl inquired il
the doctor was IN. She was about 10 years
old, and with her was a young woman about
20, evidently her maid.
Doctor" said the child, ''you helped me
so much six months ago that m sug-
gested that l bring Nora down here. She
is in very great pain"
The doctor did not quite recall what work
he had done for the child, but politely re-
quested Nora to walk into the operating
room and get ready. This, in the language
Of the chiropodist, means to remove the
shoe and stocking. The child seated her
self in the outer parlor, and the chiropo-
dist, after waiting the usual time, walked
into the little room where Nora was await.
ing him. There she sat leaning back in the
big chair with q nervous expression upon
her face, but without any change in her at
tire. The doctor was a trifle surprised, but
he supposed this was a new experience to
his patient.
"Just remove your shoe and stocking,
please" he said as he walked over to the
window.
Nora absolutely grew pale with fright,
but complied with his request, taking off
both shoes and both stockings.
She was a very unhappy looking young
woman as she sat there in the high operat.
ing chair with both bare feet dangling just
above the floor.
"Now, where do you feel the greatest
painP" asked the doctor.
Nora threw her head back, opened her ex.
pansive mouth very wide and pointing
with one of her fat, red fingers to a wisdom
tooth in her upper jaw, exclaimed: 'There,
doctor. Oh, it is something awfull"-St

PETTY THIEVING.
Police Officials Kept on the Jump
by Robberies on the Out
skirts Of the City.
DavtOn's Bluff and West Seventh
Street People Suffer to
Some Extent.

The police department is just at pres
emf greatly annoyed by gang Of thieves
who are making things lively at small
stores on the outskirts Of the city. Last
week the gang confined their operations
to the territory on Dayton's bluff, and
every night during the week store
was broken into. Not much valuable
property was taken at any OF the places,
but enough was carried away to justify
the proprietors in registering Il kick.
This week the gang have changed their
stamping ground to West Seventh
street, and so far three stores have been
broken into. At each place the thieves
effected an entrance in the same way,by
cutting panel out of the door.
The detectives caution the storekeep-
ers to keep the matter quiet and give
the old, old story about the robberieS
being the work of boys. and that they
are just about 10 catch the entire gang.
In connection with the numerous rob
berries Oh West Seventh street, well
known Young man residing in the
Vicinity came within an ace Of being
killed by one of the new patrolmen.
The young man was going home, when
he was accOSted by the officer, who mis-
took him for fellow named Cochran,
who is wanted by the police on suspicion
OF being concerned in the robberieS. AS
the young fellow did not stop when told
toby the patrOlman. four shots were fired
at him. Fortunately, none of them took
effect, but this Was no fault OF the po-
iippman

An American Hacked to Pieces
by the Natives.
SAN FRANCISCO, May ga letter
from Chill received here tells of the kill
ing of Frank Matthewson, an American
railroad surveyor, by mob of CHILEAN
halfbreeds, near Conception. Matthew
son and another American named
James Jerome were employed to survey
a railroad into the interior. The natives
showed much hostility when it was
learned they were Americans, and the
men were warned that their lives were
in danger. Next day they started back
for Conception, and were ambushed
on the road by band of natives
who attacked them with knives.
The Americans defended themselves
with rifles, but Matthewson was quickly
cnt down and killed. Jerome thinks he
would have met the same fate mad not

GERMANS EXCITED.
The Government HustIing With
All Its Might to Secure
Votes.
Corridors and Hobbies Thronged
With Groups in Eager Con-
Versation.

BERLIN, May 5.-The excitement at
the relchstag surpasses anything wit
messed there since the last hours before
the dissolution of the Septennate IN
1887. The government has been scurry-
ing hither and thither for votes, and the
deputies have beeh too uneasy to re-
main i'll the house. The corridors and
Hobbies have been thronged with
groups in eager conversation. The
speakers have talked 10 empty benches.
Freiherr Won Huene has not relaxed his
efforts to help the chancellor, despite
the action of his party caucus. He APP
peared in the lobby this afternoon,
holding in his hand the copy of a new
amendment proposed by MAJOR Hinze,
the dissdent Radical. At once he was the
center of group Of Conservative deputies,
upon whom he exhausted his eluquence
to secure their support to clause max
ing mandatory provision for the two
year term for all branches of the SerV-
ice. The amendment was not received
enthusiastically by the Conservatives.
A few minutes later DR.. Won Boetticher
fastened into the lobby with a large
group of Conservatives in tow. He, too.
was trying to make converts to the
Hinze amendment. AS he passed with
his following Herr Won Won Kossioi-
Kossclelski, leader of the Poles, re-
marked, sneeringly:
''There goes Boettieher Offering the
bill for sale to the highest bidder"
The bitterness of the opposition CIeri-
Gals increases hourly. The leader of
the BaYarian ClericalS said to the Asso-
ciated Press correspondent this after
noon that if the bill should be passed
with the assistance of the Prussian
Clericals. the BayarIan members would
summon Immediately caucus in Regens-
burg. They would there declare their
secession from the Clerical party and
establish a political organization of
Bavarian Clericals, who would cooper
ate with the Wurtembergers. Alsatians,
Westphalians. Rhinelanders and friend
ly Prussians to resist the overreaching
projects of militaryism. Mai. HinZe's
proposal to legalize the two-year term
has been approved by the government
after Chancellor Won Caprivi had re-
ceived positive assurances that thirty
Radicals would support the Huene COM
promise thus amended.
