AS Irving Finch Of Binghamton, n Y

over Indian river, which connect East
with West Main street, he saw a curl
Gus combat between a ten-pound picllerel

size caused him to stop and admire it.

after Mr.. Finch stopped, the pickerel
turned sharply to the right and Owed
a moment later another fish, a black bass,
jumped clear out of the water and fell
back with a splash, then poised with fins
and tail .Quivering, while its dOrsal fin
was erect and rigid. Two white marks
just above it's tail showed where the
pickerel seized it.
A moment later the pickerel returned to
the waters surface and swan ahead of
the bass about four feet, apparently not
noticing the bass AS the pickerel swan
the bass darted forward, and. depressing
its course little, went beneath the pick
erel SO that the dOrsal fin was drawn
across the pickerel's belly.
AS everyone knows, the end of the bass
dOrsal fin is armed with little spurs, and
those Of this bass cut through the pick
erefs skin into the intestines. The pick
erel struggled a few moments, then

fight. The boy took careful aim and shot
the bass through the back, killing it.

The other. Hope. These left me company

And left me at the turning of the way

MOTIVE POWER IN A STORM.
Greater Than the Horse Power of Every
Description in the World.

Greater Than the Horse Power of Every
Description III the World.
\ noted French scientist, II. Mohn,
made 4 careful estimate of the energy
expended in the passage Of notable
West India cyclone. which lasted three
reached was that the force developed
was fully equal to 4I3.000,O00 horse
power or at least fifteen times the power
that Is produced, in the same space Of
time. by all the windlnills. turbines.
steam engines, and all the men and ami
mails on the surface of the globe.
Whence comes this latent force" he
asks. and the answer is: From the
latent heat of vapor which rises in the
center of the hurricane and is there con-
denSed.''
Applying this method of computation
to mid-continent cyclonic movements
with which the people of this region are
familiar. some most astounding results
viii be reached. Suppose, for illuStra
ton, Il storm is developed of sufficient
extent and force to yield TO the state of
Iowa an average of one inch of rainfall.
10 produce this. the area covered by the
low IN its movement across the valley
must be from three to five times the eX-
tent Of the area of precipitation. for it
should be known that to obtain even q
moderate amount of moisture you must
milk wide eXpanse of sky. On the
average the area of rainfall in this por-
ton Of the continent does not exceed one
fifth of the territory covered by the cy-
clone. All parts of this area feel the
effects of the passing storm, but only a
fraction thereof receives benefit Of the
rainfall. There is a vast sweep in the
circulation of winds employed in the
work of wringing out a purely local
shower. And the sum total of energy
employed in the production of rainfall to
the extent herein described would be
more than equal to the motive power
required to operate all the machinery Of
the world for an equal length Of time
