Goering is held by his men, presented as q nlemento from the department an expensive and beauti- full field glass. MT.

CLOUDS EIGHT MILES HIGH.

A great cImulus thunderhead cloud,
 towering up on the horizon like huge |fambuoyant iceberg. is often higher |than the highest Alps would be if they were piled on top of the Himilayas. It is not unusual for these clouds to measure five, six and even eight miles from their flat, dark base, lowering a mile or two above the world, to their rounded, glistening summit, splendid in the sunlight. And in these eight miles the changes of temperature are as great las those over many thousand miles of the earth's surface. These clouds con- tain strata of temperature, narrow belts |of. freezing cold alternating with large distances of rainy mist and frozen snow and ice particles.
 r Hailstones, which are formed from
 a. snow particle that falls from the up- per strata and is frozen hard in the freezing belt, are often found with a series of layers in their formation, showing that they have passed through this succession of cloud strata more than once on their way from the upper air to the earth.-Chicago Chronicle.

Woman and Two Sailors Narrowly Es-
 cape Watery Grave.
 Three barges in tow loaded with coal bound for this port, had heavy bat tie with the storm at an early hour Saturday morning and two were lost. Two men and woman on board were saved. The tug Vigilant towing the barges encountered the storm soon aft CT midnight. The captain did the best he could under the circumstances, keeping well under the lee of the Con- necticut shore, but when off Charles Island two of the boats loaded deep with about 1,700 tons of coal, began shipping water. Although the pumps were manned the water increased and soon waves were breaking over the decks. The men signalled for help and the vigiIant came alongside. It was periIous rescue as the sea was running high and there was danger of the steamer being smashed by the sinking barges. First the woman was taken on board, and then the two sailors lleaped upon the Vigilant's decks. Soon afterwards the barges sank in about six fathoms Of water. Then the Vigil ant brought the remaining barge up the harhor.

GEORGE FRlsBlE HoAR.

1t was said of Senator Hoar, when} matters
pertaining to policy in the Philippines were
under discussion, that he always spoke on the
side of the opposition and voted with his party
"a remark in which there was more truth
than jest.
In the controversy over "imperialism" he
J was closely affiliated with the Edward Atkin
son and Springfield Republican school and con
scientiousy deplored the Expansion" sentiment
in his party. In other respects he was an ortho
dox republican, and even in this he may have
felt that radical tenet of the party was in
volved and that elder he had right to
do his best to change policy.
Mr.. Hoar was one of the founders of the
republican party, but he in politics even
before the party had assumed form and as
early as 1852 became a member of the Massa-
chusetts house of representatives. Since then
he has been almost continuously in public
service and an honorable career his has been.
Not specifically brilliant as constructive
statesman was Mr.. Hoar, but greatly respected
for his learning and valued in the house and in
the senate for his legal knowledge.
He one of the distinguished gentlemen
who formed the electoral commission of 1875,
representing the house, with James A. Garfield
as his colleague. The senate's representatives
were Edmunds, Morton Frelinghuysen, Bayard
and Thurman: those of the house, besides
Messrs Hoar and Garfield, Payne of Ohio,
Eppa Hunton of Virginia and J. G. Abbott of
Garfield and the great senators have gone
into history and of those who went from the
house Mr. Hoar was the only one save Garfield
who achieved any great distinction. Mr. Hoar
thus linked to the present chapter in history
which seems to the younger generation almost
entitled to the classification ancient" yet not
long ago he was of the most active mem
bers of the senate.
Senator Hoar was typical New England
statesman man of great learning and dignity,
sincere convictions and withal lovable. His
fellow senators, even those who differed most
radically from him in matters of public policy,
were his personal friends Minneapolis Times.

HEATWOLE'S ATTACK ON CLAPP.

"There is no longer any doubt but what
the candidacy of Senator C1app to succeed him
self is being backed by the railroad and trust
interests of Minnesota. Every incident and
move in his campaign substantates this
charge. His candidacy is being used as a blind
to enable these great interests to get control OF
the legislature without awakening suspicion
Corporation agents have been at work for
months securing pledges from candidates for
the Legislature that they will support Mr..
C1app. They have threatened, bribed and used
all manner of means to secure pledges Sen
ator Clapp's attitude. together with his record.
Stamps him a stalking horse for corporate
interests and a willing tool in their hands. He
demands of candidates for the legislature that
they declare in favor of his reelection and at
the same time he contemporary ignores request
that he himself give expression to his views
questions of vital interest to the people,"
When any man will make such changes as
the foregoing against such man as Senator
Clapp, we begin to love Dunn for the enemies
he has made-especially when it is remembered
that Heatwole used no such language of Clapp
till he broke with Dunn
