He was a sharp looking little man

AN AWFUL OBJECT LESSON.

hut It Failed to Have Exactly tire Eeect
Desired.
The stereopticon has become an i'm
portant factor in political campaign
work. Pictorial arguments appeal 10 an
audience with force and effectiveness
which can be secured in no other way.
But wise discretion must be exercised
in making illustrations which are easily
understood and capable of only one in
depreciation.
A Prohibition campaign orator the
other night undertook to show by stcre-
opticon views the terrible effects of
whisky upon the human system. He
threw upon the screen large disk filed
with wriggling monsters and remarked:
''Here you see magniiied drop Of
water-ordinary drinking water. You
will observe that it is teeming with life.
I shall now add little alcohol to the
drop Of water, and you will observe
how it affects animal life even in the
lowest forms of existence This will aid
us to understand its effects upon the
higher animals and man himself"
Wherenpon the alcohol was intro
duced into the experiment., and the
squirming animalcules ceased to wrig-
gle and tumbled to the bottom Of the
disk, dead. Before the orator could
make any application Of his illustration
an old man standing on the curb in
.quired:
''Say, mister. was that drop Of wa
ter-just such water an we drink every
day?''
"Yes, SIR replied the illustrator.
"Chuck full Of snakes and thingsl"
"As you saw moment ago; yes"
"And whisky knocked 'em all out
etiff and cold2''
Precisely. Alcohol is terribly de-
structive to animal life.
"Well, :. remarked the old man, with
an emphatic snap, II never have used
the stuff, but if that's the way IL work.

ter without adding little whisky 70 Il

An old ohronicler tells of pretty
incident connected with General
Warrington and the old time cleo
tion days. Washington voted at all
the Fairfax elections until the close
Of his lie, uniformly supporting the
Federal candidates.
Although he lived at a distance
from the courthouse at the Alexan-
dria market, he generally voted ear

cd by flight Of steps outside the
building. which in 1899 had become
very shaky from old age.
When General Washington reach

upon them and shook the crazy as,

strength was left in it. Instantly 30

YESTERDAY 1T RAINED
And More Is Expected Today-Three
Inches Already This Season


All day yesterday and the greater por-
ton of the night the welcome rain de-
scended, and if the statements of the
weather man are to be believed. there
is every prospect that today will see a
continuance of the storm. Up to o'clock
last evening AZ of an inch of water had
fallen, and fully as much more was pre-
c1pitated between that hour and mid
night.
At pm. the total precipitation for the
season amounted to 227 inches above
the average for this time of year, and
seeming to indicate that a wet winter
is in prospect The barome ter fell stead
lily during the early part of the night and
the wind continued from a little north
of east, just the right direction for rain,
and lots of it. During the right quite a
l1'isk breeze upblew. at times velocity
or twenty miles an hour being recorded
The heaviest precipitation was. as is
usual, during the night, but the rain as
whole fell in small drops, and the
greater part of the moisture was alb
sorbed by the earth instead of running
off. By this morning the record for the
season will be fully three inches if not
more. insuring the starting of early feed
and mostening the ground for plowing
and planting. The storm is reported
as general over Southern California.
