ABOUT THE WEATHER.

On the west coast of North America
and Europe the heaviest rainfalls are
in winter; in the interior of the United
States and Europe, in summer.
THE winter of 1912 and 1913 was one
of the most severe ever known in Rus
sia. fact which partially explains the
terrors of the retreat from Moscow.
IN northern Europe Nordenskiold
found fresh fallen snow impregnated
with dust of carbon and iron, such as
could only have come from meteors.
In 1771 an unprecedented drouth pre-
vailed throughout India. Scarcely any
rain fell for year, and hundreds OF
thousands died of famine, whole dis
tricts being depopulated.
IN 1868 the winter in North Europe
was so cold that Charles X. of Sweden
crossed the Little Belt from Holstein
to Denmark with his whole army, in
Guiding cavalry, artillery and baggage
train.
IN 1887 and the following year Sc
we're drouth spread over North China.
The loss of life was appalling, it being
estimated by the Chinese government
that 9,5OO,OOO lives were lost from
famine.

THE EASTERN MEN ALL DECLINED
The Nebraska Boilers Play a Sharp
Trick on the Regulars--TwO Con-
gressiOnal Nominations IN
Ohio.

FINDLAY, Ohio, Sept. 27.-The out
pouring of people from all parts of the
northern portion of the state to hear
Mckinley was the largest ever witnessed.
Findlay kept close holiday in honor of
the day. At Columbus on his way here,
Mckinley was given tumultous recep-
ton by 10000 people. A parade was
formed, and with Mckinley and several
state officials, the march was taken up
to this city. Mckinley delivered his adj
dress from the campus of Findlay col
lege. He compared the republican ad-
ministration with the present condition
and said the administration voted out of
power in 1892 was one of the best the
country ever had. The democratic
party had been in control of the govern
ment for 19 months, and this period had
given the American people an oppor-
tunity for sober reflection. Many who
were heretofore loud in condemnation of
the republican party were now eager for
a change. He cited the action recently
taken by the sugar planters of Louisiana,
and said he did not know what this
might mean for the future of politics,
but he could not but commend this
patriotic action. He then reviewed the
administration, the president, the work
of the present congress, and severely de-
nounced the new tariff law. He then
referred to some recent utterances by
the president on the tariff and said they
meant constant agitation OF the tariff
question until Marchr4, 1895, at least,
and for two years after, unless the
people in the elections this year select a
republican house of representatives.
A democratic victory, he declared, meant
further and longer steps in the direction
of free trade. Referring to the Wilson
bill, he said if it had become a law it
would have created an annual deficit of
from $40, 200, 600 to $70,000,000. He de-
clared the manner in which the measure
became law enough TO condemn it.
He declared the new tariff bill had i'm
proved no American interests, unless
it be the sugar and whisky trusts. 1t
had not started single factory. What
ever industry it would quicken lies be-
yond the seas. Passing to the financial
problem, the governor said our present
ebarrassment does not come from too
little money nor too much money, nor
from the character of the money in use,
but the stoPpage of wages by the closing
of industries. He referred to the clause
In the new tariff renewing the treaty
stipulation of 1875, by which sugar from
the Sandwich Islands is to be admitted
free, and wanted to know if the treaty
stipulations with the Sandwich islands
were more sacred than the contract
made with citizens of the United States
by the tariff law of 1890.

SAN Francisco, Sept. 27.-Henry Will

shot in the head. He died last night,
and his wife was arrested today on sus-
plcion of having caused his death. The
woman admits that she had a fight with
her husband on Tuesday night. Wilson
was found with a pistol in his left hand
while with his right he grasped the bar
rel of the weapon. This suggests pos
sibility that Wilson may have snatched
the revolver from an assailant just after
the shot was fired.

me who, in my opinion, is likely to
achieve the distinction which Mr.. Booth
enjoyed, that of being the leaning
American t~ragedian, l. will unhesitat-
ingly answer, Alexander Salvini. He
has in him, through both heridity and
training, the stuff that makes great ira
gedians. 1t is true that his success thus
far has been won in the field of roman
tic drama rather than that of tragedy.
This fact is not. due to any
failure that he has made in
tragic roles. but to other reasons.
With Edwin Booth still before the pub
lie 1t required more temerity than Sal
vlnl possessed TO present himself as a
candidate for public approval in
Shakespearean drama. He chose instead
the held of romantic drama, and being
admirably adapted to the roles he as
sumed, he met with success. That sue
cess. | believe, would be augmented a
hundred fold should he enter the field
for which his talents, natural and ac-
qulred. so eminently fit him. That field
is tragedy. He is full of fire aud
%strenflth, and never was an actor more
literally endowed ia the matter of pres
ence for the great tragic roles. He
would hll the eye as we'll as the ear. His
voice is exceedingly flexible. Though
III Its softer cadences it is soothing to
the point of a caress, it can 0e keyed to
the most violent emotions There was
another good reason for Salvini's not
beginning his career as an actor of trag-
edy. His pronunciation of English was
at The outset far from perfect. That de-
feet he Is now rid Of. If Edwin Booth
Is ito have a successor, which many
doubt. Alexander Salvini. i'll my opin-
ion, would be the com ing man."
y. Nj. Hill. manager of the Standard
theater, expressed the belief that Edwin
Booth would never have a successor, in
the true sense of the term, because the
actor who wins a place in the regard Of
the American people corresponding to
that occupied by Mr.. Booth will not be a
tragedlan distinguished for his inter-
probation of Sllakesperean characters.

years. During his recent visit to Eng
land he was criticised as an American.
andln his endeavor to make American
art successful in England he lost a
great many thousands of dollars. He
attempted to Guido by an American
production of a Shakespearean drama

England. How far he succeeded NAV

and intelligent opinions thereon are in
order. A number of such opinions have
been obtained, and while they do not
raise the question beyond the realm OF
strong probability, are none the less
worthy of attention, because of the
estimabIe source from which they
emanate.
A. NJ. Palmer, of Palmer's theater,
New York, was the first man in this
country to recognize the talent Of Alex
aRder Salvini to the extent OF offering
him an engagement. 1t was i'll 1882,
after travelling through the country
with SIgnor RoSsi, that he became filled
with an ambition to win fame on the
English-speaking stage. He applied
to Mr.. Palmer for an engage
ment, and at the managers re-
quest he recited HaInlet's soliloQuy.
Though his English was masked in a
richly moduIated Italian accent, the
young actor had thoroughly mastered
the lines and their meaning and spoke
them in a manner to convince the man
ager that the son of the iilustrious
Tomaso Salvini had inherited a gener-
Gus share Of his fathers genius. The
subsequent career of young Salvini has
confirmed Mr.. Palmer in that opinion.

great Edwin Booth" said Mr.. Palmer
the other day. ''is a task which one ap-
