UTILIZING FOES.
WRISTS ARE INVITED TO ADDRESS
THEMSELVES.
From The Monthly Weather Review.
THEMSELVES.

From The Monthly weather review.
Herbert Earlsciffe of Santa Barbara, Cal.
has communicated to the Weather Bureau,
through the Chamber Of Commerce Of Los An
gelcs. a suggestion relative to fog that should
call forth all the inventive genius OF America
Mr.. Earlscffe says:
I'm California there are vast areas Of valuable
land where the water supply Is insufficient.
Nature has endeaYOred to correct this by send
ing in heavy fOgs laden with moisture, and It
only remains for the ingenuity OF man 10 utlllza
this. These fOgS generally come IN from the
ocean at night during the dry summer months,
when most needed. but are dlssipatoG early IN
the morning by the sun Here IS ample moist
ure brought tc our very doors If we could but
discover some simple and pra. teal method OF
cOndensing or prccpitating it on large scale
Il certainly is tantaizing 90 think OF this i'm
mense quantity of moisture present and visible
but unavailable. Neither science nor arr a.
present can suggest any feasible method or
causing this fog 10 descend in refreshing drops
Of rain. ON the other hand. the green vegeta-
ton at the SUBMITS Of many mountains has
often been observed 10 be due essentially to
cloud ~ fog and not ID rain; Il may. therefore,
be hoped that along the coast Of Californih
some device viii soon he introduced that shan
catch the fog PARTICLES rs they IOat along ana
force them to trcllc down in gentle streams OF
water so as to mosten the earth. We do NOT
propose to cOndense or prccipitate the atmos'
phelic moisture in the ordinary sense OF those
words, but simply TO catch il as the leaves OK
the trees DO. We recall the so-called drip from
every rock and twig on the summit Of Table
Mountain at Cape Town. and especially on tho
summit OF Green Mountain In the island OF As~
cension and the dampness OF the rocks on
Pixies Peak. and We cannot doubt but that in
many spots throughout the globe vegetation is
kept alive by the small amount of moisture that
is caught on the leaves and dripping thence to
the ground. is soaked up by the roots OF the
plant. In fact. there are several plants whose
leaves and branches are so arranged as 10 flcilis
tate drip and the collection OF moisture By this
process.
What is needed by the agrculturist on tho
California coast is some simple mechanical ar
rangement by which the quantity of fog parti-
ces shall be intercep pied as they flow past any
given plant, and shall be forced to drip or glide
downward into the ground AZ the root Of The
plant. Any fan-shapcd arrangement OF sticks
or slate that Increases tho area exposed To tho
fog should apparently increase the quantity II
moisture carried down TO the roots. Mechanical
vices the explosion Of dynamite. refrgerat-
ing apparatus and other analogous devices are
likely 10 be too expensive in comparison with
The return they make.

YOUR TIME IS SHORT!

There are thousands of the
citizens of Wichita still unregis-
tered. rlOst of the men and
women intend to vote. Some of
them put it off and forget it,
Some of them are intending to
wait until the last day. Some of
them can't find the time.
The coming election is an inn
pOrtant one, one in which every
man and woman in the city
should participate. Those who
do not register cannot vote. The
only proper time to register is at
once. POstponement in many
cases means entire neglect of the
matter. The thing to do and the
only thing, if you have not regis
tered, is to register at once.
Today is the time to go to the
city building with your wife and
register. Special arrangements
have been made there for regis
tering women. The matter
should Lot be delayed beyond
today.

FIRE FROM CLOUDS
Smiles the City With Damag-

STOPS STREET CAR TRAFFIC
And Stuns Several People in
a Mild Form.

A thunderbolt Of unusually terrific force

gathering Of the storm which for while
threatened 70 break over the city. tenn
porariIy Gripping nearly every dynamo
and electric plant in operation, besides
stunning a few people in mild manner,
and causing an unusual amount of minor
damages and a panic in general The bolt
struck about o o'clock al a time when the
streets were filed with people anxiously
watching the progress Of the darkening
clouds. The street car company were the
heaviest losers by the shock, which sent
large sheets Of blue flames from several OF
the steel posts on Douglas avenue, and II
was said, ruined the armature OF their
dynamo. The exact damage could not De
learned. but the College Hill line remained
inactive for over an hour. The bolt also
played havoc around the Western News
paper Unions Office, filling the composing
and stock rooms with its sulphurous fire,
and starting a blaze in three places, which
was extinguished, however, without ser1-
Gus loss. George Kleeberger, foreman OF
the Commoner composing room, went
downstairs 10 cover his horse with a blan-
ket and was knocked down by the force
Of the current. as was also his horse. An
other freak of the bolt occurred in the rear
Of the building. where it struck large
tree, around which a steel wire was wrap
ped. The tree was stripped Of it's bark
above the wire but was unframed be
meath it. All over the town reports were
heard of damage that apparently occurred
from this one bolt. The court house also
came in for a share of the excitement.
Miss Fisk, the file clerk in the district
clerks Office, was stunned while working
at her typewriter, the unseen force frolick-
ing around the machine. Like the other
casualties, her experience was Of a mild
form. A number of people were Of the
opinion that a storm of unusual severity
would follow the bolt and hurried to safe
", only to find the phenomena followed
by downpour of rain from a tranquil but
very threatening sky.

such places, as we have never voted for
T'ense. and l hope never will. The
bringing OF the matter TO the attention
of the public at this time is especially
important. for our town meeting will be
held early i'm the month of June. There
is movement now on foot among the
law-abiding citizens TO cause the put
ting OF such measures before the town

rive profit and fine living by Offering

people, and especially our sons and
daughters-to whom we look for the fu-
ture gold and success of the town Of
North Kingston. The sad facts are well
understood by all the citizens interested.
but there is a demand for a decided
awakening OF the spirit of fairness and
justice TO all. il the right can be main
tanned, and that must be the case now
