r The first case of black rain which
comes under review occurred at Ora.
Jamestown and the surrounding dis,
trict In August, 1883, and it extended
over an area of no less than $50 square
miles, says Chambers Journal. Since
then there have happened several
showers Of similar description, but
less pronounced in their sable charac-
ter. Other showers of black rain have
been recorded In Ireland, one of which
was felt over an area of 400 square
miles.
No one seems to have microscopically
examined the water which fell at Ora
Jamestown, but it was noted that the
liquid gradually cleared when placed
In suitable vessel, and a black pre-
cipitate fell from it. In the latter cases

averaged about the twelve thousand
five hundredth part Of an inch in

responsible for blight in the plants
which they infest and subsequently
for smut, mildew and rust in wheat
and barley.
The writer sums up his remarks
thus: Humidity Is known to contrib
