4 Dog Ills Messenger.

Charles Mosier arrived in this city
Tuesday with large drove of porkers
which he purchased in Round Valley
and shipped from this city to San
Francisco. The most interesting fea-
ture of the trip from the North was
the wonderful sagacity displayed by
the six shepherd dogs, which, practi-
cally alone. brought down the hogs
The CANNES exhibited remarkable
intelligence. They apparently re.
allied that they were directly respon-
sible for the safety of the drove, cor
rallied the drove ut night without in
structions, routed them out in tho
mornings and, when the trip had been
completed took merited rest
Bright, the red dog, the dean of
the pack, is perhaps one OF the most
intelligent animals in the world. Mr.
Mosier had left the ranch and had
reached point some eleven miles
from his home before he discovered
that he had lett behind some very i'm.
portant documents. He hurriediy
wrote note, inclosed it in n handker.
chief, gave 1t To Bright and ordered
the dog home.
In about three hours tho canine
Crichton returned to his master, bear
ing i'll his mouth the documents he
had been sent for, covering thus, in
the time mentioned, twenty-five miles
aud bringing to his owner the neces.
sary papers. .-Ukiah (Cal.) Press.

Electric Energy OF the Thunder Cloud.

The average thunder cloul is esti-
mated by Professor McAdie to contain
about 300 horsepower OF electric
energy. A flash OF lightning quarter
of a mile long practically means an
electromotive force of millions of
volts. A fash occurs when the eiec-
trical strain on the air is 1877 pounds
per square foot, so thai the total cleo
tric energy in cubic mile of tho
strained air just on the point of flash.
ing is about 10000, 900 foot tons, that
is to say. the energy required to raise
ton 7O,000, 900 feet high. In these
days OF transformers" and "home-
made lightning" Mr.. McAdie asks
whether he can use this immense store
OF electricity-in the higher atmosphere.
1t might be brought down by modi-
tication of Franklin's kite. Professor
.Trowbridge shows that discharge
keeps in the same path for 100000
part of second, and Imagines thac a
''step-down" transformer might be
able 10 render it fit for practical use.

spared the marc 1RIs;atory struggle IN
der which thousands of young lawyers
and doctors sink out aof sight-the
struggle from which'comparatively few
emerge to enter on a really prosperous
career.
The supply of lawyers and doctors is
always in excess. OF the demand. II
their business were equally divided all
would be poor. As it is, a few-a very
small ninority-get on we'll in life,
while the majority of those who enter
these professions with high hopes are
doomed to disappointment. Many of
them abandon their chosen career and
seek fortune in other fields Thou
sands of men who have been educated
for the law or the medical profession
are in trade, in railroading. and in the
insurance business. and many of these
are successful They did not fail in
their profession because of un6tness,
but because of a lack of oppor tunity.
Men who started in with them and had
no better equipment than they had
have won great prizes They hap
pened to take the tide at the flood. and
it led on to fortune.
The demand for clergymcn lis in ex
cess of the supply. The young minis
ter on graduating from the theological
school has no fight with poverty, no
hard struggle for: his daily bread while
trying to get foothold. He'dces not
hang out his sign andSwA through
years of perjury for patrons On the
contrary, he steps from the seminary
to the pulpit, into an honored profess
sion and an assured subsistence. He
has a degree of sympathy and respect
that does not come to the young law
yer or doctor.
The men and the women. the old and
the young, OF his congregation take de.
light in promoting his enjoyment The
mere fact of being a lawyer or a doc
tor is not in itself passport to the
best society. But the fact of being a
Clergyman. of occupying a pulpit,
opens every door in the parish.
The young minister is well
come guest at every freside. and
he is more likely TO be sur
feited with Kindness than to su fer from
neglect Of course. salaries vary, but
they are seldom too low TO afford a
comfortable maintenance, and. in mzpy
instances, they are sufficient for luxu-
'rious living. There are, too, the
chances of calls from small to great
churches, from poor to rich parishes
All things considered. the most in
viting field for the young, men of this
country to-day is the pulpit. and the
fact that this profession is not crowded
is due TO the conscieHtieusness OF our
young men They have so high a re-
spect for the sacred calling. so lofty n
appreciation of its duties and response
bilities. that they decline 10 enter it
