A QUEER RAIN THEORY.
Precipitation from tho soldier Given n "a
Cause OF showers After Hattie.

Precipitation from tho soldier Given n "A
Cause OF Showcra After Hattie.
A most extraordinary theory has re-
Gently been propoundcd, says the Dos
ton Globe, TO show the reason why
rain usually falls after a severe battle
has been fought.
The ancieuts used TO attribute the
phenomenon 20 the generosity OF some
diety who was kind enough TO make
the attempts To wash away the traces
OF mgn's degradation as soon as pos.
siblc, and later on, when cannon came
70 be used as q means Of destroy ng
life, the detonations of those machines
were said 20 cause the wonderful down
pour OF rain
But more prosaic, up TO date people
OF to-day put IL down 10 perspiration.
And this Is how they go to prove IL:
One soldier will, in the course of
twelve hours lighting, give of six
gallons OF water. lie drinks much
Thirst for gore, glory, and water go
together on such occasions, and the
tot y amount OF moisture given of by
one .Aan is said TO be sufficient TO
cover twelve square feet three-quar-
tors of an inch deep.
Now, OF course, an this porspiration
evaporates and goes up into tho at
mosphere. Tho atmosphere, becoming
unduly charged with moisture, offers
itself on the slightest provocution TO
the formation of clouds, and In nine
cases out Of ten rain falls immediately
condensation sets in.

There are but few persons who talk
ing sbont home industries and home
Institutions but what say they are in
favor OF sustaining all such. At the
same time some OF them are sending ont
Of this Territory for papers and peridod-
Gals and neglect to take the home paper
Of their own city. They say because
W can get them cheaper East or West
And yet such persons would set up the
worst kind OF howl II they were Tor
any other person was) 10 60 to the
superintendent OF the sugar factory and
ask for employment and he was to say,
have noneto give you can get the work
done at the factory Tor much less by men
IRON the East or West.
II news paper is published and given
chsaply, to the reader there are two
things which make it 30. There are,
the great demand for labor. and the
great circulation of the paper. We think
that any person. who works on the
principle Of sending his money from his
own Town or Territory does an injury to
himself and to the community in which
he lives. We claim that home news
paper does more to build up Town
than any other one thing, for it is just
sure to bring that Town to the front, for
that reason all shonld support it that
possibly can.

" SAILOR" TO THE RESCUE.
An Entire Crow Saved by tho Intelligence
of "A Dog.


About twelve miles from Halifax,
writes Canadian correspondent, lies
Cow bay, picturesque inland sweep of
sea, where on the calmest day the
waves break in long lines Of surf and
foam, rushing shorcward with u tumult
and an exhalation OF strong, invigorat-
ing sea air. But under the lash Of q
southeast storm the waves come tum-
bling furiously landwnrd, towering
mountains high and laundering upon
the sandy coast with IA roar that can
be heard miles away.
1t was in such gallo in October, 1891,
that the schooner Dora, laden with
Goldfish and bound for Halifax from st
Johns, Newfoundland, was driven into
Cow bay, and on the dangerous shoals
lying some way out. There she lay
lnboriug heavily, disabled by the loss
of her mnintopmest, with the sea sweep.
ing her deck, breaking the dccls-houscs
and bulwarlts and smashing the boats.
Tho crew, fearful of being washed
overheard, dashed themselves TO tho
standing rigging. They had nothing
on board to signal the shore except n

moaning out the sounds of distress.
They were heard by n family named
NJ, living close TO the beach, and by
some fishermen, who all hustenod
down 10 see IL anything could be done.
But the rope that was flung out time
and again only foil far short into the
sea.
At last, when all efforts seemed in
vain, Mr.. NJ thought of sending out
n line by his dog sailor fine New
foundlnnd and a powerful swimmer A
cod line was fastened 70 his collar.
The noble animal seemed TO understand
what was required Of him, as with o
bound he bravcly answered the guiding
hand and voice Of his master.
He plunged into the sea, and, though
swept ashore several times by the i'm.
nenso waves ut last reached the
schooner, where he was hauled on
board by the shipwreclScd crew.
A small rope was fastened to the line
by those on shore. Next hawser was
sent out and made fast TO the main
mast, and then to o tree some way up
tho beach a cradle made by the crew
was then placed on the huwser, and 10y
its means all the sailors reached the
shore,
No Decd to tell of the cheer which
went up as the last man was safely
landed. The dog ut the same moment
gained the shore, where he lay gnsping
after his noble efforts. This Is proba-
bly, the only instance Of the saving OF
an entire crew by the plucl, and intcll-
gcnce OF q dog.
To his owners credit, be It said, the
large sums offered him for the dog have
all been refused. "Snilor" is as well
known all round Halifax as in Cow
bay, where he has often been photo
graphcd by Americans and other stran.

The Wilson Bill.

II Sen ator Aldrich OF Rhode Island is
10 quoted right in an interview which he
had with George Grantham Balm regar
ding the Wilson Tariff Bill, that measure
is far from being law. lie says the
bill could not be fully considered IN the
senate in less than three months, and
We think the tins mentioned is not too
long. Abill that proposes such a radi-
cal change In the policy OF the country,
both In customs and Internal tax rates,
should ID well and long considered.
This can do no harm to the party who
have drawn the bill il they are right in
their position that the country needs
this change Of policy. II they are wrong
and cut off debate then the country will
condemn them at the polls next. Noyem-
Der sure. AZ the Senator says not only
should the manufacturers have a chance
10 appear before the Senate committee,
but farmers. labor organizations, work :
ing men. and importers should have an
equal chance to DO heard. II this should
be done. the bill will not be law be-
fore csngres adjourns, and II 1t does not
pass through tho valley OF death this
congress and reach the golden shore it
will never DO resurrected again. Itsene.
mics In the vest and south are legion
