HAILSTONES.
The Part Electricity Is Said to Play
In Their Formation.

The Part Electricity Is Said to Play
In Their Formation.
The formation of hail through cleo
trical action, according TO the theory of
scientists attached to the weather bu-
reau at Washington, is an interesting
and even wonderful process.
The wind draws out cloud into n
long. narrow strip. In that form, ow-
ing To the great amount Of surface eX-
posed TO the mir, the cloud evaporateS
rapidly. and the rapid evaporation pro-
duces intense cold. Dry particles of
snow are then formed. and these, by
friction with the water drops. quickly
become charged with negative cleo
tricity. rut the water drops them
selves carry positive electricity, ana,
since negative attracts positive film
of water is formed upon each snow
particle and is instantly frozen into a
layer OF ice.
At this thickness it's outer surface re-
mains moist, the water not freezing
there so rapidly. whereupon the elec-
trical charge changes from negative to
positive. and the particle is repelled by
the water drops and driven to the outer
parts of the cloud. Here the increased
cold covers it with snow again, and
friction charges il anew with negative
electricity. Repulsion is now once
more changed for attraction, and the
particles rush back into the cloud, re-
ceiving upon their surfaces another
film OF water, which is turned into sec.
ond ice layers.
Thus the growing hailstone darts zig,
gag through the clouds. piling up its
alternate layers of snow and ice until
gravitation gains control and sends 1t.
with a jingling crowd of its fellows.

Fine Barn Burned

The fine brick barn on the farm
of Mrs. Albert Myers, known as
the old Kable farm, in jefferson
county, w. Va. was destroyed by
fire last Friday morning.
The barn, which was one of the
most substantial and cOmmodious
in this section of the country, was
erected by Mr. Kable, the former
owner of the farm, and was a mon
ument TO his skill In construction.
1t is said that the fire was caused
by some of the farm hands throw
ing hay from the NOW and knock
ing down a lantern which hung on
a peg beside the wall. When the
lantern fell, it exploded, throwing
the blazing oil over the hay, and
the entire building was a mass of
flames in less time than it takes to
tell of it.
The loss is heavy, and is only
partially covered by insurance.

THE PREY OF A GRIZZLY.
BY Little Oversight 6ruin Was Rob-
bed of Good Meal


bed of Good Meal.
In the early settlement OF California
grizzly bears were numerous aud trou-
blesome, but few men ever had n moro
singular experience with n grizzly than
Paul Sweet, who kept n tannery near
Santa Cruz. The story is told by Mrs
Dali in "My-First Holiday"
Mr.. Sweet was one day walking
alone in the woods when he came sud-
denly upon a grizzly bear a'Ss her two
cubs He was quite unarmed, and be-
fore he had time TO consider any plan
OF action the bear was npon him. She
struck him down, but - kept his pres
ence of mind and lay perfectly quiet.
The grizzly stood overflim for n min
ute or more, then seized him by the
waistband and began dragging him
along He did not resist, and she drag
ged him for dozen rods 10 a little
sandy hollow, where she dropped him
and began digging hole in the sand.
Into this hole she rooted the man, and
then nosed and paved the sand over
him until he was buried from sight.
The prudent animal. not being hungry
at the moment. was making cache
of her prey.
Mr.. Sweets heart llghtened as he
realized the brute's intentions, and no
began TO hope that he might escape,
He waited few minutes after the
bear had covered him in. and then,
thinking that she had retired from the
scene, he began To work himself free
very cautiously. The grizzly was ON
the watch however, and at the first
movement OF her prey rushed to the
spot and with two or three strokes of
her paw snugly tucked him in again.
Mr.. Sweet instantly became notion
less again and allowed himself to be
reburled In the sand. Luckily his hat
had slipped over his face, so that the
sand did not fill his nose and eyes, and
by raising his head little he was able
to throw Off the sand sufficiently to
breathe.
He was moro wary next time and lay
still for an hour or two until he felt
pretty sure that the grizzly had retired
from the spot Very cautiously then
he worked himself free from the sand
and crept away.

to one of my best patrons who had
just pocketed piece of chalk and he
said:
You're in the milk business, ain It

asked.
