S4ES4GES IN THE SKY.

Disnatches from over sea say that war pal
looms of sausage shape have been used freely IN
connection with the German army man@uvres.
What lodgings and cravings of unsatlsneo
appetite must have been aroused In the almost
emptv stomachs of the prvates in the Teutonfc
ranks as they marched and countermarched on
scanty rationS, If they had been fed TO repie-
ton their gait might have been TOO deliberate
to bring about the swiftest trlunphs in the
kriegspiel. But what an aGsta'atioh ana
warming and a sense Of hollowness they must
have felt as they gazed upon those tempting
sausapes among the clouds, alas so far above
their utmost reach and their Hottest hopes.
Their aspirations scared, but the sausages did
not descend into the camp kettles. If the sky
had fallen they might not have caught lark
pies. but dainties which would have pleased
them better. But the sky did not fall, and the
votaries of leberwurst may be still unhappy.

G0VERNOR SHEPHERDS WORK.

With the lapse of thirty years the work of
Alexander r. Shepherd in the development OF
the national capital has come TO be viewed IN
a far different light from that in which II ap-
neared while in progress. In 1870 the country
was comparatively poor, and the expenditure
within two years of S67. 100000 in the paving
and identifying of one city seemed an insane
fight of extravaganza, which could not be eX-
cused and which could hardly be explained on
any assumption of good motives. washington
was too moor to look with patience on such
ambitious designs. and Governor Shepherd Tell
q victim to his daring and to his i'll fortune in
starting on this work at a time when corrup-
ton was rife in Washington and all officials
rrara under SUSPICION He was driven from
office and his actions were submitted to close
scrutiny bur nothing was ever discovered re-
hecting on his honesty.
Doubtless Governor Shepherd undertook to
transform Washington too quickly But what
WASHINGTON is to-day is due to him more than
any other one man since Major l. Enfant lald out
On paper the splendid city which in Governor
Shepherds time was still a town OF sWamps
and mudbanks. He was the Haussmann OF our
national capital and no one who visits 1t TO-
day can fail to be thankful that Washington
q generation ago fell into the hands OF man
who had a large vision of its future ana VINO
dared to act upon it. He spent tremendous
sums of money for that time perhaps more
than could wisely be spent all at once; but
there can be no doubt that the improvements
he undertook were of the greatest ultimate ben
eft to the capital.
Washington. which in the early seventies
drove him from power. came ultimately to ta e
= new view of the man who had transformed 1t
against its wish. and in recent years it has
twice paid him the honor of public reception.
He lived long enough to see his native city I'M
dertake in earnest the completion Of the work
he had begun, so that it gives promise OF
being one of the most beautiful Of the worlds
capitals. and he had the satisfaction OF knowing
that his achievements as the pioneer OF that
movement were held in remembrance and
honor.

CARING FOR THE UNCONSCIOUS.

While the hospital service in every borough OF
New-York is of ineStimable benefit, proofs ac-
cumuate that youthful surgeons in ambulances
are sometimes overhasty in declaring that IN
conscious patients in the hands of the police are
suffering from drunkenness only. In recent
years there have been several Instances of loss
of life in such cases. when proper attention on
the part of the young men who We're summoned
might have prevented mortal collapse.
1t is so simple and easy for the holder of
medical diploma who is called to a police sta
ton to save himself trouble by a diagnosis Of
alcoholism that the temptation to let the vic
tim pull through If he can appears to be now
and then almost Irresistible. Even under age
student in his first year at a medical school
ought to have sufficient intelligence to distin-
gush between the effects of excessive drinking
and the condition due to apoplexy, to a fracture
of the skull. to conclusion of the brain. to the
sequences of Il violent assault. to the blows of q
policemans nightstick sandbag. to attempts
at suicide or the results of violence of any sort.
The time is ripe for vigorous action on the part
of the trustees and superintendent of some OF
our hospitals

that few really understand the distin-
gushing characteristics of these two
classes of wind storms.
All Destructive storms WhirIwinds.
All destructive winds are whirlwinds.
They vary from a few feet to 81 thous-
and miles or more in diameter. The
smaller whirls, such as thunder-storms,
dust-storms, or tornadoes may be dis
tinctively outlined by a single observer
when in the distance. In the larger or
cyclonic whirls the general outline is
not visible to any single observer.
Their revolution is so huge that the
winds in this instance appear to blow
on straight lines. Their complete con-
formation can only be detected by com
pairing the reports of many observers
scattered over a large extent Of coun-
try.
There are various degrees of inten-
sity in the different whirls. One may
produce a gentle breeze, another may
be of destructive force 1t is not al
ways the largest storm that produces
the greatest wind velocity. Many
times the smallest storms are the
worst.
The velocity of the cyclone is easily
determined, that of the tornado has
never been known and it is not likely
to be accurately determined it can be
roughly Appropriated, however, by the
destruction resulting from its passage.
The tornado differs materially frem
the cyclone, principally in size and ro-
tary force. The tornado is the smallest
and most destructive of all storil IS. us
diameter varies from fifty feet to n
thousand miles in diameter. To give

necessary to know something of the
nature of general cyclones and anu
cyclones, which usually are termed
areas of low and high pressure IeSpec-
lively, and which are contributory II
not the direct cause, of the tornadoes.
Cyclones of low pressure areas form
wherever the atmospheric lressu
resting on the earth's surface is least.
This means, that at that place there is
a comparative atmospheric vacuum and
/ at this point the air is warmer than
! that over the surrounding country.

discovery, but it is a long time, ninety

reViVing activity. Earthquake shocks
were felt in their neighborhood: clouds
of steam and other gases started up
from the old vents and showers of dust

the violence increased, and soon an ex-

is composed of clear cold, compact
air, from which the winds are thrown
off in all directions. They have not
a motion exactly the reverse of that of
the hands of a watch, that is, they
move from left to right.
TOrnadoes and Cyclones.
Tornadoes seldom occur except in
conjunction with cyclones or areas of
low pressure and they invariably form
from three to five hundred miles south
or southeast of the cyclone center.
This is the quadrant of the greatest
heat and moisture, and the winds flow
with considerable force to the north.
1t has been the accepted theory, that
the formation of the tornado is the
direct result of the rapidly rushing
warm, moist air from the south to-
ward the storm center at the north;
in so doing, the warmer air underruns
the extensive layers of cold air that
are being thrown off from the area of
high pressure located to the northwest
According to the laws of nature the
warmer air thus confined must find an
outlet and in so doing creates a vio-
lent, whirling, upward motion, rapidly
drawing the remaining warm air from
under the cold strata. There is gem
orally a vast difference in the temper
allure of these layers of warm and cold
air, and the greater the difference the
more powerful will the tornado be just
formed And the tornado continues in
action until the temperatures of the
different air layers become equalized,
when the storm ceases suddenly.
Although the power of the tornado is
exerted in an instant, it does not come
without warning The preliminary
atmospheric conditions take several
hours in shaping themselves and they
cannot be mistaken. The day is eX-
ceptionally warm and sultry, almost
sitting, and very quiet up to within an
hour of the appearance of the storm
formation. Then there is a great mass
