Poor Old weiser Robbsd Aea,nt

Robbers broke loose again Tuesday
morning and for the third time in
few years raid was made on the
Weiser postoffice. The robber or
robbers took implements from Lyons
blacksmith shop and first pred open
the front door of Morris Sommer's
store and entering proceeded to array
himself in new garments. A large
bundle of clothing was carried into
the wareroom and tried on. The
robber selected two suits of clothes,
two pair of shoes, and, leaving the
big safe unmolested, took blanket
and made for the postoflice. Here
he tried all the doors and windows
and finally succeeded in forcing the
front door A hole was drilled
through the safe door into the lock, a
load Of powder picked in and the
door blown off in a jiffy. 1t was
smashed to smitherines. About $40
in loose money, $50 in stamps, some
books and papers and two registered
letters from Salubria were taken.
One of the registered letters con.
tanned checks and money from l. R.
Smith, of Salubria, to the amount o.
$500. The other contained $40, 60
ing from Meadows to some one q
Drewsey, Oregon. Payment on TIN
checks has been stopped.

being broken out and the bars twiste
out of shape. At the last robber
everyone pronounced the blowing Q

the combination, but it was plain t
all that the door was not shut tigl
when blown off its hinges, TIL

hands were on their way to dinner
last Saturday, Fred Mitchell and Will
Hunt had some hot words A blow
was struck by Mitchell, whereupon
Hunt drew his knife and cut Mitch

an ugly cut, it is not thought to be
dangerous. Hunt was not in White's
employ at the time.

Tie Cause Of Rainfall.

Rain is, as we all know.
moisture OF the atmosphere c.
denscd into drops large enou
to fall with pcrceptiblc velocity TO-
the earth. The variation in tha
sizes of the drops is dependent up
on the'difference IN the height from
which they have fallen and to the
amount Of atmospheric disturbance
present at thc.time. If they fail
from great heights the drops suffcr
gradual division. into smaller ano
smaller parts, until they are at la {
converted into mists. In calm
weather, with.the clonds. near the
earth's surface, the drops are apt
to be large and heavy. The for
nation COf rain is, in general. q
continuation or an enlargement of
the processcs'by which clouds an
fogs are formed. The depositic.
of moisture depends upon the coi-
ing of the atmosphere, but, CO
corning the precise process by
which the cooling is effected, ,:va
riousssOpinions.are..entertained,e eveL
among those'who. have made me-
OrOlogy a.life.study. In consider
ing the matter we have deduce.
our reckoning from what is con-
sidered the best authority on'the
subject. From this it appears that
the temperature of a given mass OF
warm air is lowered, in the ordina-
ry course of atmospheric phenom-
ena, by one or the other Of th,
processes mentioned in the follow
ing: BY radiation to the cold 81
by radiation to the neighborin
masses of clouds or the col
ground; by mixture with cool a
or by the absorption of heat, in !,
expansion of ascending columns {
air. Whatever the process m
be, ono thing is sure: The coolil
must take place before the mo-.
ure will collect into drops of SUI
cient size to cause them te f.
from the mass of vapor in whic
the constituent parts have bee
flOating.-St. Louis Republic.

He is a forceful speaker and his man

striking. Hearing one of his lectures
the listener is not satitfled until he has
heard them all and we believe that
before the close Of the series the large

will not contain the crowds who will
flock to hear him. Mr.. Koehne scores

It's officers Say They Have Nothing to Do
With the Injunction Matter.

Mr.. EDITOR: The fact that there
are differences of opinion found to exist
between W. FL. Wheeler and Dr. E. @.
Hazelton in regard to what is best for
the city to do, should not lead citizens
and taxpayers Of Kenosha to think or
believe that the Kenosha Light and
Power company is in any way response
bic for the action at law taken by Mr..
Hazelton against Mr.. Wheeler. None
of the owners Of the electric light plant
were consulted in the matter or asked
to be a party to the movement. If Mr..
Hazelton and Mr.. Wheeler have any
old straw to thrash over that is no af-
fair of the company's. All that we are
asking of the city Of Kenosha is that
our propositions for a new contract for
street lighting shall be considered on
their merits and that we be given a fair
show in whatever deal is made for city
lighting.
While our contract with the city eX-
pires neX5 August and we desire to
make new one which shall be of adj
vantage both to the city and to the
company, We do not ask for the earth,
but only what is fair and reasonable.
Our franchise or privilege of maintain
ing and operating an electric light
plant in the city does not expire. for
fifteen years and we expect to remain
and do business at the old plant as
heretofore on plain business princi-
ciples.
