TO PREVENT HAILSTORMS.
AcetFlcnc Gun Is Used for This Pur-
pose in the Wine-Growing Dis
tricts of France.

Additional interest will be ccntercd
upon the acetylene gas display at the
Pan-American exposition because of
the fact that in France an acetylene
cannon is used by the winegrowers to
prevent hailstorms.
The explosive agent used in the gun
is mixture of acetylenc and air, and
it is fired by an electric igniter. The
use of acetylene in the gun is designed
to obriate the necessity of keeping a
supply of explosive material on hand
for charging the gun.
The cannon is connected with an
acetylene generator, and is thus al
ways ready for use.
1t is stated that 65 pounds of car
bide serves for about 1000 charges, and
will last six months.
The valve between the explosive
chamber and the acetylene generator
is controlled electrically, and the OPP
Grafton of the gun consists in closing
the gas-valve circuit for few seconds,
then opening it and closing the igniter
circuit to fire the charge.
1t is said that Il battery of guns may
be installed, covering large area, and
be fired simultaneously from one sta
tion by single operator.
In sections of the United States
where haiIstorms do great damage
similar acctylene gun might be made
to do good service.

THE SHIPS COW BOOED.
1t Heard the Foghorn and MistooiS IL
for ReIRtive-The Mys-
terry Explained.

The captain of an English steamer
spun yarn the other day of the
mysterious "Boo-o-o" which answered
his foghorn. He was steaming down
the channel, when the thick fog came
on. AT such times he never leaves
the bridge, and sounds the foghorn
himself. On this occasion, after
sounding the signal, he heard fog
horn in reply right ahead. He turned
the ships head a point to avoid coll
lislon, and then sounded again.
Again the reply came "Boo-o-o," right
ahead as before.
The vessels head was put back to
the same position as at first, and once
more the foghorn was sounded. Still
the reply came, as before, right
ahead, "Boo-o-o."
ut was very strange; I could not
make it out" said the captain, tell
ing the yarn. 81 tried again; still
the same 'Boo-o-o right ahead. A
feeling of superstition began to creep
over me, and | was giving myself a
mental shake to pull myself together,
when the lookout man forward called
out: It's the old coo, SIR And so
in truth it was-the milk COW kept on
the forecastle for the use of the ship.
She, no doubt, took the 'boo-o-o-ing'
of the signal for the cry of COM
panion in distress, and gave sympa-
thetic response"

pAwNED WATCH FOR DINNER.
Embarrassing situation of New
York millionaire who Forgot
His Money.

Many of our well-known millionaires
have habit of going about New York
with only few cents of change in
their pockets and perhaps none car
ried less of the coin of the realm than
Henry Clews, says the New York Post
Not long ago he and Mrs. Clews dined
at place where the banker-broker-
author was unknown, and where the
rule was strictly cash down. Knowing
that his good wife generally had suffi-
cient money in her purse to defray any
ordinary expense, he whispered when
the finger bowls were brought: my
dear, will you lend me enough money
to pay for the dinner? ! forgot to
bring any money" But Mrs. Clews,
too, had forgotten t bring any money,
and there sat this delectable couple
with millions at home, but not a cent
for hotel tribute! The bankers ex-
planation to the waiter was not re-
garded as satisfactory. neither did the
house understand. The proprietor. u
fellow without discernment or tact.
was so inclined to be incredulous that
Mr.. Clews, disdaining controversy.
quietly deposited his gold watch as n
pledge that the bill should be paid as
soon as he could send messenger
from his home. In getting into this
scrape Mr.. Clews is not singular. 9th
er millionaires have had similar diff
culties. There is a well-told story that
John d. Rockefeller, happening to find
his pockets empty. once permitted u
stranger to pay his fare on the elevated

Hnrd ON Our HOrHea.

The experience of the German army
in China tends to prove that both
American and Australian horses are
unsatisfactory in that country. They
are of good blood and breed, but suf-
fer sadly from the long sea voyage
and the unaccustomed food, as, un-
fortunately, only green forage is usu-
ally obtainable. Mongol ponies are
proving the most useful.

There is an old tradition in the
highlands of Scotland to the effect
that the owner of Balmoral dies when
the snow lies on a particular spot of
Lochnagar, which is rarely covered,
even in the severest winters. In fact,
according to the local report, the
snow has lain there this winter for
the first time during the reign of her
late majesty, Queen Victoria.

The Masonic Bond.

The strong bond that unites mem
bers of the masonic fraternity showed
itself in several places in South Af-
rica, where the Beers ransacked and
destroyed property belonging to the
hated Britisher. Invariably masonic
lodges were left undisturbed. Indeed
the marauding visitors generally
signed theiI names in the visitors
books.
