Aurora BOreaIis Studies.

Berlin Correspondence the London Standard
In September, 1898. an aurora borealis
with an immense red stripe was observed
in a large part Of northern Germany. Herr
Schaper, using the data obtained at that
time, has come to certain conclusions in
regard to it's extent and height above the
earth. The visible bow of light was OBJ
served at six different places between Got
tingen, Hamburg and Warnemunde, and
from those observations it has now been
calculated that it must have been at least
seventy kilometers above the earth, and
have extended from Liverpool to Libau,
in Courland. A long red band of rays seen
simultaneously at Lubbock and Hirschberg
in Silesia. reached an altitude Of 800 kilo-
meters, and another go kilometers. The
light fiickered very much, and one part
Of the rays moved at a rapidity of
seventy kilometers a second. These re-
suits agree with those which Flogel OBJ
tanned at Kiel thirty years ago by repeated
Investigations of this phenomenon He
found that the rays of large aurora borealis
phenomena, seen in northern Germany,
must be at an altitude of 100 kilometers
above the earth; that they often rise to a
height of $50 kilometers, and that their
points glow with red light. The aurora
borealis is, according to Flogel, a phenom-
enon either entirely outside our atmos-
phere, or SO situated that the lower part
touches upon layers of 1t. In Scandinavia,
on the other hand, it has been observed
that the rays Of the aurora borealis some
times touch the earth.

Durability of Timber.
From the London Chronicle.


Now that there Is so much talk about The
durability of Australian timbers It might
not be out of place to consider some other
hard woods that are nearer to hand than
the Karri and Jarrah forests of westralia.
There is in the British Museum life-size
wooden image of Rameses 1.-the famous
Sesostris-which seems to be in a perfect
state of preservation. AS this particular
Rameses fiourished over thirty-two CEN
turtles ago. we may fairly take 1t that this
piece Of timber from the Nile valley is at
least 5000 years old. and 1t is practically
certain that it has passed through many
trying vicissitudes, such as being buried
among ruins. submerged in Nile floods. and
the rest Westralian wood enthusiasts who
have lately been boasting that Jarrah can
stand the wear and tear of fifty years
more had better ponder this. And our au-
thorfties in Egypt might do well to see IL
there are any forests available for cutting
down by Dongola bend or through the Sou
dan.

Constitution Not Up to Columbia in a

/ Newport, r. l., July 30-The Column
bia defeated the Constitution, boat for
boat, in splendid race, by minutes
and 81 seconds, and won the 81 900
cup presented by Colonel John Jacob
Astor. Her victory was decisive and
convincing. The behavior of the Con-
stitution, on the other hand, was dis
appointing in the extreme, and Mr.
Duncan announced that his boat would
not take part in further races until her
rig was altered. He declared that the
Constitution is not doing herself JUS
tice; that she is not going well, and
there is no use in racing her further
until she is put in proper shape.
The Constitution will not participate
in the Newport yacht racing events of
Thursday and Saturday of this week
as competitor of the Independence
The Columbia, however. has been en-
tered for these races, and will sail
against the Boston boat. The Consti-
tuition will go to Bristol at once to
have the alterations made. If this
change in the plans of the Constitu-
ton does not prevent, the next race
in which she will start will take place
over the Newport course on Aug. II

AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY.
Bill for Its Taxation Passed by the
British House of Comomns.

6FIliSH Rouse OF COmOmnS.
London, July 30.-There was a wild
uproar in the house of commons be-
tween 1 and a. m. at the conclusion
of the debate on taxation of agricul-
tural property. The Conservatives in
terrupted Mr.. Walton Liberal, with
cries of divide" William Redmond
on point of order, called the atten-
ton of the speaker to the Interrupt
ton, but the speaker ruled that the
point was not well taken. Mr. Walton
resumed, but quite inaudibly, owing to
the persistent cries of Divide" Mr..
Redmond shouted police, police"
The speaker said this expression was
disorderly. Mr.. Redmond replied
"Why don't you keep order?" The
speaker directed him to leave the
house and named him. Mr.. Ralfour,
the government leader, moved Mr..
Redmond's suspension and this was
carried by vote of 303 to II. Patrick
O'Brien persisted in the same point of
order, and was in turn named and sus-
pended. The bill was adopted.

EUGENE v. DEBs sHELvEp.
establishments Meet in Conven-
ton at indianapolis.

indianapolis, July 30.-The first
business coming before the unity con-
vention Of the Socialism, Democrat
party assembled here, resulted in a
wrangle that threatened for a time, at
least, to put an end to the further de-
alterations of the $50 delegates pres
ent. The Springfield" wing, the "Chi-
cago" division and the Independent
faction were aligned against against
each other. AS the session advanced
it was brought to light that Eugene
v. Debs, who had headed the Social
istic ticket in the last campaign as the
party's presidential candidate, had
been shelved. At the same time the
fact became more and more apparent
that the Chicago faction had lost it's
leadership and that the Springfield
wing dominated the assemblage prac-
tically to the exclusion of the Chicago
and Independent delegates. Mr.. Debs
himself wired his congratulations to
the convention, deploring the fact of
his inability to attend, but giving no
excuse.
Mr. Clemens, cousin of Mark Twain,
bolted the convention during the ex-
citement, followed by dozen others.
He was the representative of the Chi
cago, or Debs, faction and a confer
ence was held by him and Nhis follow
ers outside. They were induced to-
return and Mr.. Clemens took the floor.
HIS said:
II know that the Chicago faction is
down, never to regain it's prestige;
know that this convention is to be
dominated by the influence of the
Springfield wing: | know that the end
of the gallant leadership of Eugene
V. Debs has come
A compromise resolution was adopt
ed and the session adjourned.

FOR PUBLIC LAND.
One of the Greatest Lotteries in His
tory at e. Reno.

Ell Reno, o. T. July 30.-Oklahcma's
great land lottery has begun here in
earnest and when the commissioners
appointed by the federal government
adjourned the drawing for the day,
1000 of the choicest of the $4,000
160-acre claims in the Kiowa-Com-
manche country had been awarded
The first name drawn from the
wheels was that Of Stephen A. Hol-
comb of Pauls Valley, I. T.. for a
homestead in the Ell Reno district, and
the second Leonard Lamb of August,
o. T. These two men selected the two
choice claims in this district.
TIL capital prize winners, however.
proved to be James r. Wood Of
Weatherford, O. T., whose name was
the first to come from the Lawton
district wheel, and Miss Matte FL.
Bealls of Wichita, Kan, who drew the
second number in that district. They
will have the privilege OF making the
first filings in the Lawton district, and
will undoubtedly choose the two quar-
ter sections adjoining that town. These
are considered the most valuable in
the territory and are estimated to be
worth from $4,000 to $4,000 each
The 18th winner in the Lawton dis
trict was Minerva McClintock, aged
25 years, of Oklahoma City She was
married Sunday and by this act for
feits her right to file for claim. She
might have chosen 2 claim near a
county seat town worth $4,000.
It is estimated that fully $4,000 per-
sons witnessed the drawing. The i'm
mense throng was wrought up to the
highest pitch. The drawing Of the
first names was followed by mighty
shout that reverberated between the
hills and must have been heard for
miles over the prairies. Each schedule
winning for time was met with
shouts of applause and merriment.
It has been found that many hun
dred applicants have repeated" and
that others have applications so IL
legible that they will be thrown out.
Over this much discord resulted, and
the outcome may be an appeal to the
courts.
