Not since the days OF the first suggestion
that rain could be produced at the will of
the jewellers on earth have any propositions
for man to control the climate been suffi-
GENTLY strange to startle world already
saturated with the novelty OF the new
science. So it is with a complacence that
Is really astonishing that the reading pub
lie accepts the statements of a distir-
guiShed pair of savants who believe that
the weather may eventually become SUBJ
ject to the caprice of humanity. An En-
glishman named Walker has just published
an article in a British technical journal in
which he sets forth his opinion that in n
few years rain-making by electricity will
be regarded as no more wonderful than the
endeavor TO harness Niagara in order to
furnish half a dozen states with power.
These theories were reported to Prof.
Croker, of Columbia College, New York,
who ranks very high among modern scien-
lists, and while he disclaimed any notion
of the methods whereby Mr.. Walker pro-
posed to accomplish his end, he went on to
dilate upon the possibilities of at least one
scheme to control the climate. His theory
was that the most economical way would
be to utilize the cold air of the arctic re-
gions and the hot air of the lorrid zone to
counterbalance each other. The plan he
outlines is apparently simple and easy of
execution. 1t is merely to establish a pipe
line between the two extreme regions, con-
sisting of a tube of thin steel four or five
feet in diameter, into which the hot and
cold airs of the antipodal zones would be
pumped by means of great fans or blowers
operated by the power derived from the
waterfalls along the route. Intermediary
stations could be supplied on the way with

amounts Of hot and cold air would be
drawn. Just as the luxurious bather turns

delightful mixture tina. Is most conducive
to comfort. Houses, even. could be supplied
with taps of both kinds. and perhaps indi-
vidual mixing chambers. Streets could be

1t will probably be a mere beating of the
air for an effort to be made now by the ju-
dicial authorities of the District to appre-
bend the unknown individual whose rough
play in the local Thanksgiving foot ball
game caused the death Of young Bahen.
The verdict rendered yesterday by the
coroner's jury was unquestionably sur
prise. Partisans Of the game exclaim that
the jurymen were unacquainted with mod
ern football and its rules, and no doubt the
phrase foul play as used in the verdict
was misconception and mistake. These
words in such a connection necessarily
have a special, technical meaning relating
to peculiar conditions in the game, of which
the jurymen were confessedly ignorant; a
foul play such as the rules contemplate
was not described by the evidence. Nor
was the phrase accurate from the point Of
view Of the language of the law. The jury
would have been quite justified in con-
demning the play as rough, but beyond
this it was not well to go. Rough play 1t
unauestionably was, indeed the toughest
kind Of play. brutal play. The game was
Of that class which make the action of the
Harvard authorities in stopping further
foot ball play by students of that university
seem justifiable and praiseworthy. The
death Of Bahen is only one more evidence
of the need Of a radical revision of the
rules of the game, which at present permit
mass plays that are terribly dangerous
No man can distinguish details of the play,
no eyewitness could ever be relied upon to
tell an accurate story Of an accident such
as that which has just resulted SO sadly.
There is a wild rush, a collision, piling
UP of men on men. and somehow a man is
hurt, an elbow, a knee, foot may strike a
vital part and life is gone. The chances
are shockingly good for fatal accidents.
Rough players ought to understand that
when they go on the field they take their
chances not only Of physical injury and
even death. but also of prosecution and
punishment for manslaughter. if they kill
an opponent The game needs to be re-
formed.

March is evincing a tendency to leave
town very much like a lion, after the pro-

bowling and whistling through the red
girders of the post office building, and 1t

blown a score or more of men OF the
works entirely. for today there were but
eighty-six men engaged and yesterday

The District has now secured an author
lied compilation of it's existing general
laws, which seems to merit and receive
general approval This compilation will
serve as the foundation upon which a salts
factory code may be erected. The need of
such code has again and again been urged
by The Star. The lively and intelligent in
terest in the subject, manifested at last
nights meeting of the Board Of Trade,
gives strong announcement to hope that
this local want may before long be satisfied.
OF course the capitals demand for modern
laws is no new thing. Just complaints in
this respect were among the first municipal
utterances of the infant capital. Successive
would-be compilers or codifiers since the
the time of Cranch have kept dangling be-
fore the eyes Of Congress the patchwork of
District law full of ugly holes and excres-
cences, but in vain. Still the people Of
Washington have not been completely dis
Outraged, and in view Of their achievement
Of a satisfactory compilation. and of the
determination displayed last night to push
steadily forward until a code Is secured,
the inspiration of renewed hope gives i'm
petus to the movement.
1t will be a great thing for the District
even to have existing law collected from its
venient shape for reference. In straight
ening inconsistencies and making intellig-
ible the statement of existing law many an
tiquated provisions may be practically
legislated out of existence by being treated
as obsolete. But clear statement Of the
law as it Is should be only preface to the
improvement Of that law. On the founda-
ton of a compilation a comprehensive code
or body of revised statutes wiping out the
present uncertain. inconsistent, Anticipated,
obsolete or obsolescent statutes should be
secured, and in making this revision as
much of the modern spirit Of legislation,
both in respect to substantive law and
procedure should prevail as the District
can endure in undergoing the shock of
change from present law and methods.
Washington is a progressive nineteenth
century city and an eighteenth century
body of laws. merely disfigured by subse-
quent random patching, Is unsuitable to
its condition. 1t Is time that the statutes
of the capital of the nation ceased to serve
mainly as a museum of antiquities, Won
ders and horrors to the investigator. The
District needs modern laws for present
use. which will aid instead of retarding
its development as a modern municipality.

The absent-minded man had concluded
