From the Scientific American.
Robert Seyboth of the United States
weather bureau tells Of an experience with
ball lightning while at sea In Hudson bay
In 1867. The phenomenon was witnessed
during storm. Happening to secure the
upper hold on the foretopsail brace, the
writer, facing sternward. again noticed the
evn-looking thunderhead, apparently but

while waiting In silent expectancy for the
thing to come, saw ball Of fire the size OF
a mans head detach itself from the cloud
and sail quite leisurely to the mizzen truck,
striking which it exploded with deafening
crash and sent shower of Kissing sparks
over rigging and deck.

NO SNEERS
From Those Who Know
Them.
Missionaries Are Doing a Splendid
Work.

New York, June 11..--Mrs. s. d
Doremus, secretary of the Woman's
Missionary society, who has just re-
turned from visit of eight months
to the mission station Of the society
in India, China and Japan, said, in
speaking of her trip:
ut Is rather the fashion In some
quarters to- sneer at missionaries but
the respect and affection that they
have won, especially in India, are proof
that their work is from the heart and
reaches the heart. The estimation in
which they are held was strikingly
manifested in the perfectly astonish-
ing amount of courtesy shown to me,
as the secretary of the society that
sends them. Officials of high standing
lavished polite attentions upon me,
sending me fruits and flowers and ev-
erywhere | received the warmest well
come. The hospitals are the most i'm
portant part of our mission work, as
it is through them that we establish
friendly relations with the natives.
The Mary S. Ackerman hospital in
Jhansi is a beautiful place. The sites
of our mission bungalow and memoir
ial hospital have been wisely chosen
outside the gates of the walled city,
which with its narrow streets and
densely crowded thoroughfares rep
resents many types Of life in India
The progress of women in India is an
assured fact, for already instances are
seen. Several have taken degrees in
the universities lately; one of them
was the mother Of five children. The
question of child marriage must be
settled, however, before reform is
fully established. The missionaries
have succeeded in raising the mar
riage age to II years, but it must be
made 16 before conditions can i'm
prove greatly"
