The Weatherina of Coal.

1t is probably not generally known
that coal exposed to the atmosphere
undergoes chemical changes greatly
affecting its quality. Moisture is the
most powerful agent in producing such
change. II is matter of common
knowledge among men engaged in the
making of illuminating gas that coal
which has been stored for long time
experiences a loss of hydrocarbons,
and the effects of the change are
shown in a diminution OF the volume
of the coal and in a loss of illuminat-
Ing power ia the gas produced from it
Such chemical changes occurring In
great masses Of coal may even produce
sufficient accumulation Of heat to cause
spontaneous combustion

Mercury and Air.

The reason that mercury rises and
falls in the barometer il that dry air is
heavy, moist air is light, and the col
anln OF mercury is affected by atmos
pheric pressure. The tube Of baron
eter being open at the bulb end, the
air VIXEN moist cannot support the
weight Of the mercury. When the air
: dry. the mercury cannot resist its
weight; hence the rise and fall In dry

have been experienced for a long

all day and all night was foretaste
of the approaching winter, then
there is indeed much laid up for us.
In addition to the high wind, which
blew a gale almost continuously the
entire day, rain, hail, snow and
sleet were experienced. The rain
began Saturday evening and the
stormy weather continued until
Monday. The storm was general
along the entire eastern coast where
much damage was done, but in our
immediate section none, other than
of trifiiug nature, has been re-
ported.

Carroll Baker, formerly of North
