SOUTHERN SQUIRREL HUNTERS
Primitive Habits and Customs of Louisi-
 ana NImr0da.

Primitive Habits and Customs of Louisi-
 ana Elmrods.
 "I have been among the squirrel hunt ers,'' said gentleman who had just re- turned from his vacation, according to the New Orleans Times-Democrat. '"Thei equirrela hunters are a peculiar people inhabiting the southwestern counties of Mississippi and adjoining Louisiana parishes. They have been living there for generations and, preserve the prim- tive customs and habits of their fore fathers ~rry
 1.-The squirrel hunter is doubtless de- scendant of Kentucky settlers, for they are all, tall, stately people, and great lovers of the hunt. But there is now little large game to be found, and so they spend their time hunting the squirrel. which iso also scarce.ta The squirrel hunters are farmers, but raise little ex- cept corn. The pine-hill region, where they live- is not penetrated by rail- roads, and there are hundreds of such people who have never seen a steam engine.fI saw great many of the oldest squirrel hunters of the country, and found them to be a very strange looking people. They all wear long hair, which often reaches down to their belts. Their boards, too, are long, often matted with their hair. They wear homespun pantaloons and homemade shoes. Their shirts are oftentime made from the skins of squirrels, which they wear in the win ter, while in summer they wear an open blouse shirt, also of home make. Their houses are made of pine logs, be- tween which mud is placed as plas tering. These houses are covered with pine boards split from the woods. There are never any inclosures about their homes, their yards opening out into the pine forest.
 ''These squirrel hunters, while they have no churches, are very religious people, though a great deal of supersti- ton is connected with their worship. Their churches are made of boughs of pine, placed upon scaffolding, to keep out the sun. Now and then a country revival is held in these arbor-houses, but this is seldom"

suffered from compara lively weak but f1uctuating currents that had no prac tical influence upon the working o1 aerial wires. This anomalous action arises from the fact that condensers are interposed in cable circuits, which are operated, not by continuous cur rents as in the case of land lines, but by induced currents of momentary duration produced by the charging and discharging of the condensers. The latter being responsive only to sudden variations in current strength it will be evident that such apparatus serves to exclude from the cables all but the more variable class of currents, which latter, however, affect the cable irrespective of the current value.
 The storm of July 20 did not ap- parently pursue the usual easterly and westerly direction, but took course more nearly north-northwest, judging from the results of number of sinul- taneous observations taken on different wires with the view of determining the line of maximum disturbance
 The greatest difference of potential discovered on any wire on that occa- sion was sixty-two volts, but from in- dications noted at times when 1t was found impracticable to take scientific measurements, it was evident that the electro-motive force developed in some circuits amounted to upwards of one hundred and fifty volts
 Sun spots are generally credited with being the cause of earth currents, and it is fact within the writer's knowl- edge and experience that no magnetic storm of any magnitude has ever ap- peared without its accompanying solar disturbance; but 1t is equally a fact that the two phenomena are not in- variably associated with each other, inasmuch as groups of prominent sun spots have oftentimes been visible upon the sunis disk when earth currents have been conspicuous by their ab- sence. This circumstance would ap- pear to confirm the views held by Dr. M. A. Veeder, who has made study of the subject and who is in possession of data which apparently prove that mag netic storms are only possible when the spots are in particular locality and when the earth occupies certain position in relation to these spots. He further contends that the effects pro- duced are brought about by conduc- tion rather than by induction and that the masses of matter thrown off from the sun when the latter is violently agitated constitute the medium through which the electrical energy is transmitted from the sun to the earth, as otherwise the presence of earth cur rents ought to be felt whenever and wherever sun spots are visible if the latter are to be regarded as the direct cause of terrestrial magnetic phe- QOmena

CAUSED BY SUN SPOTS.
Recent Observations on the Ef-
 fects of Earth Currents.
Felt During the Prevalence of Severe Electrical Storms-Contrast to Phenom- Observed During Similar
 Disturbances in the Past.

The working of telegraph lines ex- tending in an easterly and westerly di- rection was greatly affected by the magnetic storm of August 19 and 20, which was accompanied by displays of brilliant aurora observed in various sections of the country. The disturb ance was first observed about nine D. m. Sunday, August 10, when the wires began to work badly, and became so intense at frequent intervals through out the night as to render circuits use- less, not only on land lines but on sub- marine wires as well. The storm, which exhibited many of the ordinary characteristics of such phenomena, did rot finally disappear until after five D. m. Monday, August 20, though it's eff fleets after nine o'clock on the morning of that day were not marked east of Chicago, but were sufficiently pro- nounced on lines west of that point to cause temporary stoppages of work, especially on automatic and quadruplex circuits
 Similar phenomena were noted July 20, and the disturbance, which was first felt about five-twenty a. m., as sumed wavelike character which reached it's highest altitude with al most perfect regularity about once every two hours until seven-thirty p. m., when the storm so far subsided as to unaffect the working of land lines. The ebb and flow Of the earth currents during the prevalence of the storm were generally characterized with re- markable steadiness and deliberation, forming strong contrast to the violent fluctuations of many preceding magnetic storms, one of which ex- hibited no fewer than one hundred and fifty variations in the magnitude and polarity of it's currents in the course of a single minute.
 An interesting practical point in this connection consists in the fact that whereas land lines are invariably in- fuenced by either of these classes of earth current, provided the latter is sufficiently strong, the submarine cables do not seriously feel the effects of very gradual variation of current It frequently happens that the At lantic and other cables enjoy com parative immunity from earth current interruptions at times when land lines are more or less prostrated; while at other times the cable circuits have
