The Weather Bureau experts, however, are of the opinion that its evolution Is not yet complete. They propose to study small models of kites in the same way, finding out in what manner the air currents strike them. When this has been ascertained, kites may per haps, be made that will fly twice as high as the best ones now do.
 All such things can be tried perfectly we'll in the laboratory, it is believed, The results obtained are expected to throw light upon ever so many pro- blems that have to do in one way or an- other with the motions of the air cur rents. For instance, useful facts will be secured that have relation to the ventilation of railway trains. How to get the most fresh air with the least dust is the question. When it is known how the air flows around the cars when they are in motion. it will be practica- ble to put the ventilators just where they should be, and to construct them on exactly the proper principles. So likewise with all sorts of ventilation for houses, etc. Electric and other fans will be improved, so as to give better breeze by modifying their shape. An electric fan draws in the air at one side and throws 1t out at the other with more or less waste.
 Light may even be thrown on the subject of meteors. Why does meteor make noise when it passes through the air? Sometimes the noise is long rattle, and sometimes it is sudden, sharp exlosion. Nobody knows how to account for it.
 Various methods have been tried for making the atmosphere visible, in order to study the motions of its currents. Fine dust, starch powder, or the vapor of sulphuric acid will render the at mospheric waves visible to some extent
 but they are of no practical use In the
 sort of investigation described. The
 particles, on account of their greater
 density behave like projectiles and fol
 low their own paths, giving no truthful indication as to the movements of the
 air itself. Cigar smoke does better, but
 the photographic process of Professor
 Mach is in all respects admirable, and gives results of perfect accuracy. This,
 as has been said, is an entirely new
 branch of research, and there is no tell ing how much valuable knowledge it
 may bring forth.-St. Louis Globe | Democrat.

WHY SHE DAMNED HIS SOCKS.

A well-known statesman, who has represented his district in Illinois for number of years. had the support of his wife in manner which won for him the reputation of being plain and simple man of the people, whom f1attery could not divert from his patriarchal customs.
 A school friend of the wife, who had not seen her since girlhood, visited her at her country home one summer.
 How industrious you are!" ex- claimed the visitor.
 Tn what way?"
 with fancy work, I guess. know you used to have great aversion to plain sewing; but you must be very diligent now to have your work basket right here in the parlor'
 Would you like to know what am doing?''
 "Certainly?"
 You shall see" The Congressman s wife took from her basket a half-knit sock of old-fashioned blue yarn.
 You don't mean to say that your husband wears things like that?"
 "Oh, no; he wouldn't think of such a thing. I have whole lot that I will be glad to give to anybody that will wear them"
 Do you do this for pleasure or charity?"
 NO; for business, and never occupy myself in this way unless it is absolute ly necessary. But l have ot keep the work handy, and when the old-fashion- ed voters of my husbands district come to call upon hin--and you have no idea how many honor us with that attention T get it out and knit away for dear life. It is good deal of bother, but it's worth a good many votes every two years. St Louis Republic.

HAILED FROM NEW HAVEN.

Bridgeport, Sept. 5.-When the early train from New York arrived here this morning a man and woman alighted and went to the Atlantic hotel, almost directly across from the depot and se- cured lodging. They registered as Will liam Schwartz and Annie Schwartz and were assigned separate rooms. Shortly afterwards Schwartz hastened into the office and requested that physician be at once summoned as his companion was in critical condition. Dr. 1ngals soon arrived, when it was learned that the woman was about to give birth to a child. The hotel people insisted on the removal of the woman and she was taken in an ambulance to the general hospital and soon afterwards a baby girl was born. The man told the off, cials that he was an uncle of the young woman's and that he was on his way to New Haven, where his niece lived. Later the woman told the hospital att tendants that her name was Annie Gross and that she belonged in New Haven, but would not say anything more relative to her identity. After the woman's removal to the hospital the all leged uncle disappeared.

Kiernan Association Out in Force-Coun- cilman's Life Spared-A Modern Dough- tv nnuuIaas

Kiernan Association Out in Eorce-Coun- cilman's Life Spared-A Modern Dough- ty Douglass,
 The T. & B. Kiernan association had an excursion and picnic yesterday at Silver Sands, whither they were con veyed to the number of eighty-eight in two of Smedley's barges. Two games of ball were played between the T. Kiernan and B. Kiernan teams, both of which were won by the former, the scores being to and to 0.
 Councilmen McKenna and Clifford umpired the games, while James Doug lass tended the score card.
 Councilman McKenna nearly es- capped lynching at the hands of the players, who were infuriated by his de- cisions. A rope was placed around his neck and lynch law would have been executed had not considerations of pub- lie policy influenced the baseball ists to restore him to the ground and his seat in the councilmanic chamber.
 The two teams lined up as follows:
 Thomas Kiernan team-C. Mannix, pitch; F. Mannix, catch; o. Lyon, right field; P. Lynch, left field; M. Mannix, third base; E. Turbbett, first base; Deskin, short stop; P. Foley, second base, and P. Kirby, center field.
 B. Kisrnan team-F. Munz, catch; B. Schappa, pitchS Gilbert, first base; AL derman Rourke,, second base; Gardner, right field; Otell, short stop; J. High land, third base; E. Borden, center field, and J. Mccarthy, left field.
 F. Munz won the 100 yard dash, lead ing all competitors by four feet.
 In the fat mems race Billy Schappa easily won, rolling across in the line in excellent form.
 In the wrestling match between James Douglass and James Ryan the odds were three to one on the latter; that is, the Irish James had 360 pounds avoirdupois to the Scotch James l2o pounds. also avoirdupoIs. Odds didn't count in this instance for Mrs. Doug lass, who regulates the up and down motion of the city hall elevator and is otherwise actively connected with the city government, downed his 36O pound adversary two out of three times, ac- cording to his sworn statement, and had him down on his knees the third time, but for some unexplained reason failed to finish the job. MT. Douglass descended from the Scotch chieftains of that name and is not a safe man to beard in his den, much less out of it.
 Refreshments and other picnic pleas ures completed the sum total of the days enjoyment.

NIGHT WATCHmAN DROWNED.
Sad Ending of His Fishing Excursion

Sad Ending Of HIS Fishing Excursion.
 Westport, Sept. 5.-Max Miller, aged thirty-seven, who had been employed as night watchman by the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company, was drowned in the harbor about o'clock this afternoon. The body was recovered. Miller with a party of five companions had returned from a fishing trip on the sound and he was just letting go the anchor when he fell backwards into the water. His friends, knowing him to be an expert swimmer, did not anticipate any dan- ger, but when he failed to appear again and an effort was made to rescue him it was too late. It is thought that Mill Ter was seized with spasm.

AN EAST STREET SALOON RAIDED

AIN hAoI OALoOIN JSaIDIDI(
 The saloon of Michael Kelly at 35S East street was raided at o'clock last evening by Sergeant Crocker and Off, cers Clancy, McAllen and Cooper The officers had suspected that liquor was being sold at the place and when they arrived at the saloon Sergeant Crocker went to the side window opening out of teh saloon, while the three patrolmen remained in front. At the window the sergeant found a. man whom he saw receive a glass of beer through the window and lay down money to pay for it. When the man at the window saw the officer he ran and about the same time Kelly, who was inside be-
 hind the bar, saw the three officers in front of the saloon. Seeing the ser geant at the window and thinking that he was the man to whom he had just sold glass of beer, Kelly spoke to him in low tone, telling him to get away, as the police were coming. The glass of beer was secured as evidence and the arrest will follow later.

Rabbits.

Rabbits, which are by consent
able to get a living where no other
quadruped can, become very select
in their tastes where food is abun-

gardens of a large house in Suffolk

swarmed before the passing of the
ground game act, it was found that
some rabbits managed to effect an
entrance every night, with a view
to eating certain flowers. They were

self a Most Unfortunate Man.

sShA a AAOsS OHtCrSU0ar9 Man.
A stranger tramping in mid-June
through 1.-THE garden of England, 7"
as the county of Kent is called. sees
posted on boards and fences notices
announcing that the growing crops
OF fruit will be sold by auction. He
also sees the fruit-cherries, goose
berries, currants and Strawberries
growing in fields and gardens, and
observes the great barns bursting
with thousands of bushel baskets
waiting to be filled with the ripe
fruit and sent to London. The
stranger, should he express his adj
miration of the orchards, hopfelds
and market gardens to a country
man. will be surprised at two facts:
TheQeasant proprietor never thinks
OF eating any Of the fruit he grows,
and the more plentiful the crops the
less pleased he processes himself to
be. This report of conversation
between a traveller in Kent and q
fruit grower-taken from the Dover
Road--shows the fruit grower a
born grumbler, who, in his own
opinion, is most unfortunate man.

head and mumbles:
