ELECTRIC STORMS.

They Make Ones Hair Really stand
On End-StOnes CrackIe Under the
Feet.
IT. C. Knowles. in Ainslee's)
Perhaps the most peculiar of the
mountain phenomena are the so-called
electrical storms. There is no pre-
cipitation, no lightning, no thunder,
and usually no wind. Nothing to be
heard and nothing to be seen except
the gathering of clouds But much
may be felt. Everything is charged
with the electric fluid; the earth, the
air, the very stones and trees and
even human beings are full of it.
A Weird Experience.
"A mining engineer visiting a tunnel
located on a mountain side at an ele-
yation of 1920 feet describes his sem
sations during one of these storms. All
alone he was climbing up the trail TO
the tunnel, where he wished to ex-
anime a vein of ore. Great black
clouds began to gather on the horizon,
and were soon rolling about the noun
tain side below him. A calm prevailed,
then an unnatural stiffness seemed to
be in the air. Steadily the clouds roll
led up the mountain side like a food
of black water Then stones, as he
stepped on them, began to crackle and
snap, like dry wood in fire. Realizing
these unusual conditions. he hurried to
the sheltering tunnel above him. His
hair felt as If swarm of flies had set
tied in it. When he tried to brush
them away with his hand, he found
each hair standing almost straight
The stroking of his hair increased the
peculiar sensations he experienced and.
tingling from head to foot, the now
thoroughly frightened man ran into
the tunnel. No sooner had he passed
the entrance than the peculiar sensa-
lions ceased. After resting awhile, he
went to the opening and discovered
himself entirely surrounded by clouds
SO black and dense that he could scarce
ly see five feet away although the hour
was not far from noon. Stepping out
side to investigate. he received shock
that sent him Keeling back into the
tunnel, where he remained for over an
hour before the storm passed.
Such electrical storms seem to be
formed in stata. If a human being
should make such connection as to
draw the charge from one OF the lay
ers, he would instantly be incinerated.
This accident, however. has never been
known to occur Electrical storms
prevail throughout the mountain re-
gion. but the severest storms of this
nature are met only at the great alti-
tudes
With all the severity OF electrical
storms. and thunder showers, it is
fact that human beings are seldom
struck by lightning In the mountains.
Death from that cause is much more
frequent on the plains bordering the
ranges thans In the mountains them
selves.

THE VOTING BEGUN.

The roll call of the first ballot then
began, The announcement of Alabama
that it had 1S votes for Hill, was receiv>
ed with roar of applause.
-Four for Hill from Florida" called
forth another yell of applause.
Illinois, shouted the clerk, and
back came the cry, forty eight for
Stevenson" and then the Stevenson
enthusiasm was uhbottled in good
earnest, and it rose higher still when
Iowa and Kansas cast their full votes
for him. Louisiana was the next to
go for Hill, her delegation giving him
the entire vote of It, Michigan, which
had all along strongly approved of
Towne, gave him but five votes, the
remainder going TO Stevenson. The
shout from Missouri, "One for Hogg. of
IeXas, called forth loud laughter and
applause. New Jerseys twenty votes
Tor Hill called forth another ripple of
cheers and then came New York"
The reply, New York casts her entire
II votes for the Hon. D. B. HILL" in
creased the ripple to a wave of ap-
plause.
Pennsylvania Ga votes for Steven
son" caused the adherents of the Illi-
nols man to shout until the rafters
rung. The Hill people cheered wildly
when Tennessee went solid for the New
York man, and the Stevenson people
answered their cnaer when Texas came
to their son
