Among the popular fallacies relating to the
weather that persist in spite of the efforts of
meteorologists is the occurrence of a ''line." or
'eQuinoctal storm, on or about Sept. q.
Notwithstanding various statistical and other
studies. this storm gale is still anticipated.
and while some storms have occurred at this
season occasionally, yet there have not been
sufficient recorded to justify the name or the
customary anxiety for its occurrence. A further
contribution TO the literature the subject has
recently been made in tabulation of the daily
rainfall at Boston between Sept. IA and rs. for
the thirty-two years from 1872 to 1904. On Sept
81, during this period measurable quantities Of
rain fell but six times, while for the week of
which Sept. 81 the middle day. there were
only twelve years when the total weekly precpi-
tation exceeded one inch.-Harper's Weekly.

HAS GOT TO BE RECIxoNED WITH.

The Democrats of Indiana have not been
in the habit of looking to the Journal for
advice. and they have shown pretty good
aptitude for managing their own affairs.
But old adage says it is right TO learn
from an enemy, and assuming that our
Democratic friends recognize this truth,
the Journal would advise them not 10 un-
derrate the significance or strength of the
Hearst boom. OF course. this advice is ad-
dressed to conservative Democrats.
First. what there is in present political
conditions TO render possible the success of
such a political propaganda as the Hearst
boomers engineering is hard to say. 1t
may be the degeneracy of the times, or be-
cause the rank and file of the Democratic
party are hungry and thirsty that they
are desperate. or it may be some other
cause or combination of causes. That Is
not material.
The important point is that the Hearst
boom has made rapid Roadway and is
still gaining. On Saturday last Democratic
conventions in five counties in Illinois in
structed for Hearst. and he has a decided
majority of the counties that have in
structed. He seems to have secured Kan
sas beyond doubt and he has secured some
other States. In entering this State his
managers have made the serious mistake
of bringing two members of the Democratic
national committee here to dictate to In
diana Democrats regarding a candidate
One of these members is secretary of the
national committee and the other is chair
man of the executive committee. one being
from Iowa and the other from Kansas. Yet
in spite of this gross breach of political
ethics and usage, the launching of the boom
has been welcomed here and the movement
has been embraced by Democrats hereto
fore regarded as conservative. That such
man Hon. ]. o. Henderson should
consent to father 1t must be accepted as
danger signal.
This is the first time in the history Of
Indiana politics that members of the ma
tional committee of either party have in
terfered to try and control the nomination
of national candidates. Such thing would
not be tolerated by the Republicans of In
diana, and ought not to be by the Demo-
Gratis. 1t gives the anti-Hearst leaders a
weapon which they can use effectively.
But they should realize at once that the
Hearst boom is not matter to be trif1ed
with.

N-Rays and Digestion.

That the processes of digestion, as well as
mental and muscular activity, seem to cause the
emission of N-rays, is the conclusion reached by
NJ. Lambert. in France. after series of inter-
estng experiments He believes that these Curl
Gus rays are produced by ferments, especially
by those concerned in the digestion OF albumi-
mold matter. In his experiments on digestion NJ.
Lambert placed small quantity of fbrin in
tubes containing in one case activated pancreatic
juice, and in another artificial gastric juice made
by mixing a 5-per-cent. solution of pepsin with
a 4-per-cent. solution of hydrochloric acid. From
these tubes the Mays were emitted and were
detected not only by producing increased lumi-
nescence of a phosphorescent screen, but also
photographically. thus removing the subjective
element from the experiment. AS result of
these experiments, NJ. Lambert believes that in
the course of digestion the fbrin undergoes
strains which act to produce Mays, just as
various other bodies under tension strain
