How 70 Preyent Frost.

| What produces frost? The cause
that produces frost is the lack of
moisture in the air below a given
point. The air contains at different
times a greater per cent than at others.
The Signal Service grades the atmos-
phere at 100 per cent, or point of sat
uration; all over that amount produces
rain; all under to a certain per cent,
say 80, produces warm, sultry weather,
and all under that per cent produces
cold and frost by creating a vacuum,
which produces wind which sprecip-
itates the moisture and forms dew
which freezes and forms what 'Fc cali
frost. I..'7s
Now to prevent frost, says Frank
Baker in a communication, che only
thing that we have to do is to attract
heated moisture from off given terri
tory, or from the plains into the tim
Der, to that amount or per cent that
acts as barrier to the north wind,
and we have it. Now to prove nv
theory is this: That you will always
notice that just before storm, say a
week or ten days, that there is frost.
Now this moisture Is precipitated on
the ground in the form of dew. The
earth Is composed of chemical matter:
the chemicals, through the action of
heat, produces an electrical action
which charges the vapor of the air,
which, in time, attracts more vapor,
until the atmosphere is thoroughly
saturated, or the point of saturation is
reached which clears away q frost and
produces rain.
Now claim / can, by chemicals,
produce the same effect, and can hold
the atmosphere in state or to point
that will prevent frost, as the mois-
ture that is collected in a body raises
the temperature and acts as a barrier
to the north wind.
] am willing to guarantee to prevent
a frost for two or three years over a
from ten to twenty miles in
extent at 30 much an acre or tree, and
If fail, the contract enter into will
become null and void.
There will be no expenses attached
to owners of orchards until after the
expiration of the contract. / want the
fruit men to look into this matter and
weigh the matter carefully. Is it bet
Ter to prevent frost than to have one
during the fruit-growing season? The
cost will be in the reach of every
body.

Extraordinary Growth.

The most remarkable instance of a
human beings growth and maturity,
followed by decline, is one recorded by
the French academy in 1923. 1t is that
of boy whose voice changed at the
age of 5; whose height at was feet,
6 inches, and whose beard was then
grown, making him appear to be about
80 years old. He had great physical
strength, and could easily lift and
carry bag of grain weighing 200
pounds. His decline was as rapid as
his growth. His hair and beard turned
gray when he was years old; at 10 he
tottered in his wal; his teeth fell out
aud his hands became palsied. He
died at IL with every sign of extreme
old age

A Debtor Has his Creditor Immured In
an Asylum.
CHICAGO, Sept. 20.-Judge Dunno
has issued writ of habeas corpus for
the release of Charles Hirsen, who is
confined in the Dunning asylum.
Hirsch was tried and committed to
Dunning September 5, under the name
of "Kirsch." He was tried on the
petition of George S. Olsen, who, the
present petition says, has known him
by his right name for several years.
just before his commitment the Pc
titioner says, a man named Barr, a
contractor, borrowed $1400 in cash
from Hirsch, and when the latter at
tempted to get his money back, Barr
and number of other men beat and
choked Hirsch and plastered his eyes
and mouth with shoemaker's wax. 1t
is charged that they then caused his
arrest and imprisonment, alleging in
sanity, although they knew he was
sane.
The application on which Hirsch
was committed shows that he was
pauper, which the petitioner says the
man who made the application well
knew to be false, Hirsch having plenty
of money besides that which he lent
Barr, and which the latter still has,

FIVE THOUSAND FOR HIS DEATH

For Damages.

Andrew Hansen. administrator of
the estate of George Hansen, de-
ceased, yesterday commenced suit in
the United States court against E. Nc
Neill, receiver of the o. r. & N. Co.,
to recover damages in the sum of $4,000
on account of the death of George
Hansen, who was killed on July 10,
while in the employ Of the o. r. & N.
Co. The complaint alleges that Han
sen, with some fifty other men, who
had been repairing the railroad track
near Cello, was directed to go upon a
certain train to be transported to The
Dalles to pass the night. While on
the way down the engineer sidetracked
two boxcars by making a "fying
switch" Hansen was riding on fat
car, and was not aware that the en-
gineer intended to make "fying
switch" and the car he was on was
ierked and shaken so violently that he
was knocked off, on the track, and was
run over by the boxcars, and the top
of his head was cut of, and he was
killed.
1t is charged that the accident was
caused by the negligence of the engi-
neer, and was not due to any lack of
care or caution on the part of Hansen;
wherefore is is prayed that damages be
awarded his estate in the sum of $500

The Warm Weather In Chicago.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2O.-Including today
the weather record for the month of
September in and around Chicago has
been broken all to pieces, and suffer-

never enter another contest. The
mercury climbed steadily yesterday
until it reached the 81 mark on the
official thermometer in the Auditorium
tower, and this was certainly from to
8 deg. cooler than it was on the streets.
The humidity was something terrible,
and was more deadly than any Sept.
ember that the "Oldest inhabitant"
could remember. There were three
deaths and two prostrations. The
dead are Charles Styles, Frank Wilson
and William Cushman. Those pros
trated were Terrence Cox and an un-
known man, who is at the county hos
pital, and who, it is believed, will die.

district attorney is sanguine that he
can put in his case not later than
Wednesday evening.
In the opening statement for Dur

self nor his colleagues ever entertained
Mrs. Mary Vogel and the three girls
to the effect that Durrant joined
Blanche Lamont at Kay and Powell
streets, at 3 o'clock. on the afternoon
of April 3. He will admit that the
young woman and the medical student

the direction of Market street. Upon
their arrival at Market and Powell

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23.-When
the trial of Theodore Qurrant was re-
sumed this morning, it was announced
that Pawnbroker Oppenheim, who was
on the stand under cross-examination
when the court adjourned on Friday,
desired to change his testimony.
There was stir in court at this, every
one expecting a sensation. 1t trans
pired that the witness simply wished
to correct some measurements which
he had given of his store.
By way of testing his memory for
the faces of those who came to his
store Oppenheim was shown silver
corkscrew and asked if he had ever
seen it before, and under what circum-
stances. He replied promptly that
about three weeks ago, a tall man with
q dark complexion, wearing black
clothes, had come to his store and of.
fered the silver corkscrew for sale. In
a similar manner he identified a silver
watch shown him, saying it had been
brought to his shop two weeks ago by
a short man wearing gray clothes.
