The cliffs of Dover have been seen sud
denely to CLEAN and hilltOps to become
visible in the darkness. A chemist of
fame has extracted bright light from
a great variety of stones by simply
rubbing them with emery paper. The
conclusion is that the disturbing forces
which go on even at the very center of
the earth are converted before they
reach the surface into heat and light,
and make all manner of difference to
what we call climate and weather. The
effect is all the greater as we are at
great earthquake era in the history
of the world.
Weather prophets who extract their
knowledge from the air not the earth.
expected to cap Professor Milne Two
Frenchmen have made remarkable G.ss-
coveries of the course of storms. which
might enable a man on a motor car
to keep in touch with any storm of
which he had notice half across the
continent.
The discoveries are likely at once to
send up the percentage Of totally sue
cessful prophecies, which is now at 81,
to 20 or so. Unfortunately time was so
short that the announcements were
suppressed, as was also the result of
the balloon experiments, and there was
much annoyance and disappointment.
One other discovery was announced
In an unexpected quarter. Professor
BottOmley was able to prove to the
botanists that he has harnessed a mi
crobe useful TO the farmers as the
shire horse or the spade There is a
small microbe attached TO the roots of
clover and other plants of the species
which insures their fertility of the
land. These little beasts the professor
has recently taken IN hand, and by
careful feeding taught them an ac-
quired taste for the tomato, which, I'M
der their administrations, doubles in
fertility.

WEATHER COMES FROM HADEs.
Oondon Cor. Philadelphia Record.

(London cor. Pnlladelph1a RECORD.
Our climate comes from Hades, OF
Whereabouts. At least this is suggested
by an astonishing series of experiments
made by Professor Milne, said to be
the greatest expert in seismology in the
world. Many persons have had sim
liar view OF the origin of recent wea-
Their, but Professor Milne has given
the British association the first scien-
tific proof
The tale of his experiments was one
OF the two new discoveries announced
at Leicester, and 1t unfolds all sorts
of possibilities. He has made the dis
covery much in the same way as the
X-rays were discovered. He has been
in the habit of leaving an ingenious
Photographic arrangement in quarries
at night, with certain astounding re-
suits. The Photographic paper was
found to be marked from time to time
by dark bands. black spots and what
are called singeings- Some of these
markings occurred at the time Of
earthquakes. but by no means all
1t seems certain that most minerals
become luminous at frequent intervals

SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION.
Meeting at Weber Stake Academy
Attended by 600 Persons.

The regular monthly Sunday school
union meeting of the Weber stake was
held at the Weber Stake academy yesteT-
day afternoon. Out of an enrolment of
I56 there were 600 present and the meet
ing was most successful one. The
meeting was divided into three parts
general department and lecture-a Ger
tain amount Of time being allotted TO
each.
Prior to the general assembly the
thought of the song America" was de-
veloped. Then followed practice singing
of the same song in four parts under the
direction of Professor Joseph Ballantyne.
One hour of the days session was devoted
to the general work. in which all of the
business Of the meeting was transacted.
For the lecture work the meeting was
divided into three groups. To one of
these Professor w. NJ. McKendrick spoke
on Discipline in the Sunday School," to
another group Professor S. D. Bradford
spoke upon the theme, Outlining of Les
sons and to the third Elder S. G. DYE
delivered an address on Respect and
Reverence for Seniors and the Aged"
According to the reports handed in at
yesterdays session the condition of the
Sunday schools throughout the stake is
better than 1t has been for some time
and the indications are that there will
be an increased enrolment before the
next meeting.
