home In Sedalia when the Reed meet

Mayor announced his candidacy for
the nomination for Governor.
While Mr.. Hickman has not q disre.
pectful word to say OF the Reed boom,
nc took occasion TO investigate the
nature OF the boomers who attended
the Sedalia demonstration to do the

tered, and the major portion Of the
howlcrs were Kansas City employees
and young fellows out for a good time
who held free tickets and shouted
"Nah! Rah! Rah! Poo! Bah! Poo Bah,
Poo Bah! Reeds dc man, Rah!" And
some Of them were paid u dollar each
TO keep up the bedlam. They were
wild and wooley In their enthusiasm,
especially after they had spent thcil
dollars TO whet up their dry throats.

Gone Oh the Mule.

a City this week looking for stockers,
says the Dovcr's Telegram. MIR. Smell
INT from what Is, perhaps the great
est mule producing county In the whole
country and the heart Of the great
mule industry Of Missouri. He says
farmers and breeders In that section
are now decidedly mule crazy. You
needn't go u Galloway county with
any kind Of a gold brick scheme this
year and try to make 1t CO." said he,
"for the people are so dead stuck on
mules that they are the only class of
stock or article Of m that will
make money fast enough.
"Oil trust stocks and gold mines sim.
ply don't interest the Galloway county
folks, for they are welded body and
soul, to mules. Little colts, barely
weaned, arc selling right on the farm
for 500 to 800 per head and Mt this
rate you see 1t pays like everything to
grow mules. A few years ago we
could not get that much for mules tina,
we had developed for three or -four
years and thoroughly broke. -Four
hundred dollars per pair is no price to
pay for good mules down our way
Show mules are commanding $3.50 pei
head, and know Of one span that sole
for $500. They will probably be taken
TO the St. Louis fair and also to tn,
Royal this fall. You will see our coun
ty well represented mt the mule show

Phenomena in Australia.

\ great deal Of interest has been
created in scientific circles here by The
dispatches from Australia telling Of an
extraordinary red dust storm that
broke over Melbourne. November 12,
and which aftcrward became general
over Now South Wales.
One phenomenon in connection with
the storm was the falling Of flreballs,
which SGT fire to several buildings in
Melbourne. At midday the city was in
darkness, people traversing The streets
with lanterns. The supcrstitious
thought that the end Of tho world was
about 10 come. and scenes Of panic arc
| described in some of the dispatches.
AT the same time comes the news
that The Savaii volcano in Samoa is in
violent state Of eruption. and that the
villages in the noighbOrhood are COW
cred with ashes to a depth Of two
inches. Sir Norman I.Ockycr, the as
tronOmcr. in an interview printed in
The Daily Mail stated that nreballs
were constantly seen at the time of the
recent crnptiOnS in the West Indies
SO that it is possible that the phcnom-
cna in Australia may have been con-
nccted with the volcanic activity in
Samoa.
The fircballs are generally described
as globular lightning. There are rec
ords OF much damage having been
caused by them. In 1909 the Warren
Hastings, British warship, was
struck on the masts by three frcbaIls
in quick succession. In 1881 an cleo
tric ball entered q wooden dwelling in
village Of Auvcrgnc. IT exploded and
set fire TO the house, with the result
that child was burned to death. h.-For-
