HAIL FORMED BY roRNApoEs
The Result of Whirlwinds in the Atmos
phere Ear Ahnve thu Icnrth

The Result of Whirlvinds in the Atmos
phere Tar Above tho Earth.
The fact that hail is formed at an
indefinite but, in most cases, a great
height above the surface of the earth.
and that 1t is commonly precipitated
when storms are raging, has prevented
any direct observation of the process of
freezing the vapor of the atmosphere
into ice pellets or large masses, and
what has been decided regarding the
phenomena of hailstorms is almost
wholly the work of theory and logic.
Nevertheless some points are pretty
clearly established.
In the first place, hail is the result.
as rule, of whirling or tornado-lilxe
storms. There may be no whirling on
the surface of the earth but, according
to the Cleveland Leader, it seems GER
tain that in the higher regions of the
air, where hail is formed, there is al
ways an atmospheric disturbance re-
sembling what is commonly called a
cyclone when it sweeps the ground. A
curious indication of the soundness of
this conclusion was to be noted the
other afternoon, when the storm which
wrought such havoc with skylights
had passed by. Out over the lake
there was great mass of cloud, very
high and dark, which had the form of
an oval race track of enormous proper.
tions. 1t might easily have been fifty
miles in length and two-thirds that
distance in width. The formation of
the cloud mass was noticeably such as
might have resulted from the violent
whirling around moving center of the
whole bulk of cloud vapor. The ap-
pearance of the sky was thoroughly in
harmony with the accepted theory of
the formation of hail. 1t is believed
that the nucleus of large hailstone is
usually bit of snow or snow-like ice.
which falls from the snow strata, or
level, above the rain level, into the lat
ter, and is caught up with a cloud of
raindrops and mists into the higher
freezing regions of the atmosphere by
The force of a whirlwind. The rain
md water in the form of mist, which
'lings to the snow nucleus, or touches
tas it is whirled swiftly up into the
intense cold, freezes around it as clear
md solid ice.

Has Reached Bedrock

Property has never been so cheap as
it is now in The Dalles. Stagnated
conditions of business on account of
the unsettled financial policy of the
government is mainly the cause. The
signs of the times point plainly to
better times. Political Questions
settled, the locks opened and gen.
eral feeling of confidence restored, an
era of prosperity may be expected. 1
have never had property listed so
cheap as it is now. More particularly
1 refer to block of IL lots which will
be placed on market for ten days fer
5000. 1t is good thing.

Harvesting in the northern part of
Benton county is developing sore un-
pleasant surprises, says the Corvallis
Gazette. One farm, formerly yielding |
40 bushels of wheat per acre. this year |
barely averaged six bushels. 1t is |
said that the whole section will not |
yield over eight or nine bushels per
acre on an average, and there will not
be more than half crop in Benton
county as whole.

SReCfal Rates.

AS there will be numerous requests
for reduced rates on account of polit.
ical meetings during the coming con-
test it has been decided that in order
to treat all parties alike, one fare

Company for various meetings of this
character. This of course, is intended
only for occasions where there is suffi-
cient number to justify reduction in
rates. This is done so that there will
be no partiality in favor of any one

Benefits fruit farm last Saturday says
there is more activity exhibited there
than he supposed there was in all the

the fruit picking as one of the prettiest
sights he has ever seen. The prune
trees are each loaded with about 300
pounds of choice fruit. and to pick
and pack it requires the labor OF q
people. Fifteen of these are ladies
engaged in packing and succeed in
puttingsup from twenty to thirty boxes
each during the day. Then there are
nine men picking, two hauling and one
boxes. The orchard through
out is well laden with fruit, though the
yield is hardly up to the average, but
the quality is good, and the prunes
command fair price in the markets.

A DEVILISH CONSPIRACY

To Steal the Grandchild of Nine. Modieski,
the Actress-An Inexplicable Az r.
Chicago. March 2S.-Within t..C last
two weeks two Attempts have been made
to kidnap the four-year-old daughter of
Nine. MOdjeska, the actress, in this city.
The first attempt was made while
nurse had the child out for a walk. A
man seized the child and started 20
run. The nurse followed him several
blocks, screaming for help before she
succeeded in recovering the child. That
night Ralph Modjeska, the father re-
ceived an anonymous letter warning
him to leave the city under penalty Of
losing his child if he refused. The
second attempt to steal the child was
made few days ago. Since then
Modjeska has received numerous
threatening letters and has been TAX
ing active steps to ascertain their
source. He says he cannot account for
the attempts to steal his child and drive
him out of the city.
Last Monday night the conspiracy
took a new and alarming turn, when
an unknown man called at the Nodes
ka fiat and hurled the contents of a
bottle of carboic acid in the face of
Pessie, nurse-maid to the child. The
girl was terribly burned, and will be
disigured for life The police were at
once notified, but have been unable to
locate the thrower. Detectives have
been stationed around Modjeska's
house ever since, to watch for the kid
napper, should he return.
