MISTAKEN WEATHER PROPHET.
Louisiana Farmers Took Gut More Tornado
Insurance Ncetilessly.

New ORLEANS. July IA month ago,
Prof. DeVoe, the weather prophet, wrote
to Gov. Heard Of Louisiana that an cleo
trioal storm and cloudburst such al those
which recently occurred in Georgia and
South Carolina would visit Louisiana be-
tween July s and 10. He asked the Gov
ernor to lay the matter before the State
Agricultural Board 80 that the farmers
might be warned in time Of the approach
ing disaster. The Governor refused to do
this.
The warming. however, leaked out and
notwithstanding the fact that the news
papers tried to show the absurdity of these
warnings, the farmers and country mey-
chants and business men in some Of the
towns, esp cially Baton Rouge increased
the insurance against tornadoes nearly
three-fold.
The time for the electrical storm has
passed without disturbance Of any kind,
and the weather prophets warnings have
fallen in public estimation. Several years
ago a warning of a tidal wave from one Of
these prophets caused such panic that
the Government had to interfere to quiet
the fears of the panic-stricken.

Sixth district next year. The district is
normally Republican, but it was carried
last year in the Odell slump by Robert H.

The Republicans are confident that the
district can be easily reclaimed next year,

Before his election to the Supreme Court

EFFICIENCY IN GUN PRACTICE.
Prizes to NE Given Blue Jackets for Ac-
curacy I'm Firing.

VWTAty
WASHINGTON, July ia scheme for
encouraging accuracy In firing among
enlisted men 10 being prepared at the Navy
Department by Lieutenant Commander Will
liam s. Sims. inspector Of target practice
for the Bureau of Navigation. The scheme
contemplates cash prizes and increased
pay to gun crews and individual gun pointi
ers who display special proficiency, and
fleet trophy to be retained by the ship making
the best record. The competition will be
held annually In March at Key West, Fla.
where the vessels OF the North Atlantic,
the South Atlantic and the European naval
forces will assemble after their winter
maneuvres In the West Indies. Competl-
ton among the vessels Of tn Asiati and
Pacific squadrons will be held elsewhere.
Lieutenant Commander Sims's plan pro-
vides for a division Of enlisted men into
three classes. In the heavy elias will be
crews OF guns OF eight inches and above; IN
the intermediate class, crews OF guns pc
tween four inches and eight inches and IN the
secondary class, crews OF guns below TOUR
inches calibre.
Improvement in gun practice is regarded
by the Navy Department as the chiei
problem now confronting the naval service.
Since the Spanish war there has been
noticeable decrease in the efficiency then
prevailing, but recently there has been
some improvement, although not enough
to satisfy the naval ordnance experts,
some of whom contend that the American
seamen are far behind the English and the
French in target work. The prize system
and the rules under which 1t will be con-
Quoted are based on the English and the
French schemes. to which Lieutenant Com
mander Sims has given careful study.
1t is intended also by the Navy Depart,
ment to establish target ranges for small
arms at all navy yards, Small arms prac-
tice has never been given much attention,

Mating TO BE Made In the South.

the possibilities OF the manufacture Of mating from
rush now growing wild in the swamps OF almost
every Southern State. that found In North Carolina
Alabama and Texas being nearer the kind required
than that found In other Southern States. He
says that looms to weave the rush have been pat
ented and several OF them will be set up in North
Carolina as soon as they have been made. He be-
lcves that this Is step toward the proper utllika
ton of a great amount OF hitherto unused raw
material and that the result viii, be an enhancing
of the value OF almost valucleSs swamp lands and
the distribution IN this country OF vast sums OF
money, amounting TO about & 100000. which are
annually sent abroad to China and Japan for the
purchase OF mating. Should the experiment be
a success another money maker will be added

now reached The thorium atom, uni
versally believed, since It's discovery by
BERzlLrus three-quarters Of century
ago, to be single and indivisible parti-
Gle OF matter, now appears 90 the pro-
genitor Of Ave new substances, oven
more elemental than itself, evolved by
successive and spontaneous changes
within it's substance. Radio-activity,
says SoDDY, has introduced us to new
kinds Of change, so that now it Ia no
longer possible to consider the atom as
the unit. But the moment the atom also
is regarded as composed OF parts, each
perhaps with a definite motion Of its
own inside tho system. It is easy to see at
least possible mechanism by which an
element could undergo slow spontaneous
changes
But the phenomena OF radi0-activity
become even more wonderful when we
consider tho atom as a storehouse Of
energy. We have seen that while, on the
one hand, the amount Of matter which is
involved in radioactive change is we'll
nigh inhnitesimal, the energy concerned,
on the other, is colossal. ON the one
hand we have change so slow that mil
lizards Of years are necessary for its con-
summation: on the other. change OF
energy so great that it is possible to de-
tect it at any instant over the whole
period, by experiment"
Until BEcoUBREL's discovery, what
did we know Of the internal energy Of an
atom? Before the discovery Of radio
activity, the idea OF intratomic energy
was wholly unknown to science. Its
development now demonstrates the ex-
istence In the universe OF an amount Of
energy which has never even been
dreamed Of. The conversion Of atomic
potential energy into kinetic energy upon
the surface Of the sun, for example,
would furnish him supply Of radiating
power far In excess Of that which the ac-
cepted theory of meteors could supply.
As it has been said, what controls these
gigantic forces is still mystery. The
knowledge Of their existence, however,
must alter our attitude toward inanimate
matter and make us regard the planet on
which we live rather as storehouse
stuffed with explosives, inconceivably
more powerful than any we know of and
possibly only awaiting a suitable de-
tonator, to cause the earth to revert to
chaos.
