Oh the captains bridge on the North
Land as the big boat was steaming
down the Detroit river on the dustless
highway that leads from Lake Erie to
the City of the Straits. The greatest
electrician of the age, who has hung
the industrial armament Of the closing
century with millions Of incandescent
lamps, was directing the attention Of
his wife, Captain Brown and others
who were about him to the scenes Of
his early struggles, says a writer in
the Chicago Record Herald.
Pleasant indeed must have been the
recollection of those events which a
kindly fate threw around the genius Of
a boy to produce the matchless Edison.
There was luster in his eye as it swept
up and down the country across the
channel where once the fast express"

youngster who was destined to light
up the continents with the lanterns Of
his genius.

Snawhall Showers.

More than one explorer in cold eli
mates has noted the curious phenome-
non of snowfall shower The balls,
it is true, are not very big, the average
being about the size of a hem egg, but
they are true snowballs for all that,
compressed globes of snow, not little
Jumps of ice or hail.
A fall Of the kind occurred in north
London in March, 1859, and at the time
it was observed that the balls seemed five
times as dense and compressed as ordi-
nary snow and in no way to be told
from the usual handmade missiles.
They had fallen during the night and
were strewn many layers thick over a
very large area
No cause-except a doubtful electric
al one-can be ascribed for the strange
phenomenon, and mountaineers are apt
to discredit the stories of SNOWFALL
