RAIN MAKING.
The Council Neeting Not Largely Attend
cd Dy Oitisens Dr. Nannestad Dis
cusses the Problem from . Sol.
entife Standpoint.

1t was unfortunate that q larger at
tendance on citizens did not turn out to
the council meeting last evening. as the
report OF the committee which was sent
to confer with the Rock Island rain
makers was h be made, not only 20 the
council but for the information OF the
public: The council wished to get the
Econsensus Of the citizens as to the wiz
dom Of engaging in the rainmakiinig
experiment and 90 far AZ the council
and the dozen or 90 citizens present
were concerned, they we're almost unan-
imous in their desire to see the expert
ment tried in Lake county. But the
council were at q loss to know whether
the people would endorse the action of
spending the 500 necessary to secure
the experiment whether It was a sue
cess or not, Ii was their desire that
there should be a large mass meeting
and free expression on all sides. But
as they did not receive this they are as
much in q quandary ms ever, and this
morning decided to send two members
to Sioux Falls to-day to watch the rain
producing experiment now in progress
there and report. If they are as favora-
bly, impressed al before, another mass
meeting may be called at anytime to
discuss whether further steps should be
taken to secure an experiment here.
Be ready, therefore, to promptly attend
the meeting.
To the Editor Of The Daily Leader.
/ do not see why it should be an i'm
possibility to make rain. I earnestly
believe that the time Is coming when
every county will have q rainmaking
apparatus Of its own. I will give you
my asons Rain is only water; moth
ing but pure and simple water. And
what IL water? Water is Q combination
OF two gases-hydrogen and oxygen.
Consequently we need three things to
succeed in making rain. In the first
place we need oxygen. And we need
not trouble ourselves to get this stuff.
1t 10 always present in the air in inn
mense quantities. In the second place
we need hydrogen. And as hydrogen Is
not present in the air, as a rule, we
have to generate it ourselves. 1t ID
quite an easy matter. Every chemist
knows that we III produce hydrogen
gas with a few simple chemicals-pref-
erably with sulphuric acid acting on
zinc or some other metal. In the third
place we must have a combination be-
tween these two gases. And this com.
bination can be brought about with
electricity. Every chemist knows these
things to be facts, and rain has been
produced in every chemical laboratory
in the United States-and has been pro
duced many times right here In Mad
ison at the Normal. The only question
ia, whether it is possible to produce this
rain in such quantities that it would
pay. This problem seems now to be
solved; and sven il il is not solved to-
day it will only be a question of a COM
paratively short time when il will be
solved. This question once raised will
not go down, but will. like Banquosl
Ghost; come back till the discovery is
made. DIR. j. r. NANNEsTAD.

JURY REFORM.

Massachusetts Has q New Law Containing
Excellent Provisions. :
A new jury law has just gone into
operation in Massachusetts,, and some
of its provisions are manifestly so good
that they might well be embodied in
the code of other states. For instance,
one section reads, '"The board of alder
men of any city shall not strike any
name from the jury list a prepared, ex-
cept of a person who has been convicted
of a crime and has not been pardoned on
the ground of his innocence of said
crime, or of q person who is not quail
fed by law for service as q juror" The
intention here was to do away with tho
favoritism by which men Of influence
were in the habit of Kidding themselves
of the duty of serving ON j~uries. ;
The penalty for q violation of the sec
ton quoted is sever it being provided
that if any person is guilty of fraud i'll
the drawing of jurors, either by prac-
,ticing on the jury box previously to a
draft, or in drawing a juror, or i'll re-
turning into the box the name of a juror
which had been lawfully drawn ont
and drawing Or substituting another III
his stead, or in striking o name from
the jury list, he shall be punished by IL
fine not exceeding $500.
An additional official safeguard is
thrown around the selection of jurors
by the requirement that the mayor of
any city shall be present at the drawing
and verify by personal inspection the
result of the ballots announced by the
alderman appointed for the purpose.
The law was framed to connteract the
corrupt influence that had previously
prevailed in the making up of juries in
the cities Of the state.-New York Post.

Barbarossa appears at the end OF n yes

he is sitting like the sleeping figures Of
the courtiers. with fabulous animals or
tho old mythic world. Barbarossa Is rep
resented at the moment OF waking from
his long sleep. In his right hand ID his
sword; his left hand strokes his long
waving beard. Contrary TO all other
figures of the old hero, he Is here repre-

features OF q noble man. The whole

The third proposed amendment to the
constitution to be voted upon at the
coming election provides for the amend
ment of section 4, article xxi, which
reads: "The right of the debtor to en-
Joy the comforts and necessaries Of life
shall be recognized by wholesome laws;
exempting from forced sale a homestead,
the value OF which shall be limited and
defined by law, to all heads OF families,
and a reasonable amount Of personal
property, the kind and value of which to
be fixed by general laws"
The amendment, which can be read in
the election notice, provides about the
same things in regard to the homestead
of a debtor or poor man, as the consti-
tuition now does, except that it would
make the homestead subject upon
foreclosure OF a mortgage, or vendors
lien, or liens, for labor done or things
furnished in the construction or repair
Of any building, erection or other i'm.
provement thereon"

The latest convert to republicanism is
Prof. Anderson OF the Wisconsin univer,
sity. His conversion Is the talk OF the
state. For years Prof. Anderson, who il
a Scandinavian and a most thorough
scholar, has trained with democracy. The
reason assigned by him for his renunci.
alton of that party is the roster scandal,
though it is not at all improbable the
gentleman has changed his views on
economics somewhat, This change in
front shows plainly the current that has
set in. Republicans cannot be found
who have changed to democracy, bat
the ranks of the former are being daily
augmented.

Thrifty Farmers Welcome the visitors and
Eat Them For supper. &
A curious phenomenon occurred i'm
the northern portion Of the county
Thursday afternoon. Shortly after 5
o'clock a shower Of live frogs began fall
ing. The shower of living creatures con-
tinued for FIVE minutes and covered a 10
acre field on the farm Of Ezra Willburn.
The frogs fell only ON Mr.. Willburn's
farm. and at the time they fell the sky
was cloudless. Mr.. Willburn's small
son was the only person who witnessed
the shower, and after recovering from
his surprise at such "a strange occurrence
he informed his father of the affair.
The Willburns at once began catching
the largest Of the frogs and enjoyed a
regal repast of delicious hams for sup
pen. The neighbors were also literally
supplied. The cause Of the shower Ii
somewhat a mystery, although it is said
that the frogs could have been drawn
from q distant pond by a strong whirl'
wind and carried through the air TO o
point over Mr.. Willburn's feld.-Mun.
