I was delighted the other day when
driving along Main street, near Tenth,
to see a crowd of little boys and girls
being amused by a squirrel that was
playing about on the trees and ground.
It showed no fear. but ran around

the sport as well as they did. In Cen

Professor f. H. Bigelow furnishes
The American journal of Science with
some of the results of the international
cloud work for the United States. The
penetration of ordinary cyclones into
the higher regions of the atmosphere
is slight. They are only two or three
miles deep. Hurricanes are five or six
miles deep. The anticyclonic and cy-
clonic areas are hardly to be consider
ed as centers of motion except in the
very lowest strata. since currents of
air blow directly over them from west
to east, even in the cumulus region Of
the Rocky mountain districts. The or
binary circulation theory does not hold
good. In each stratum from the sur
face to the cirrus level about as much
air moves north as south, for there are
enormous counter currents passing by
each other at the same level and not
over one another at different eleva-
lions. This puts a new aspect upon
the entire problem of the general cir
culation.- Nature.
