Dynamic Of Rain Making.

From the London Morning POST.
The desperate expedient OF rain max
Ing experiments has lately been put
to the proof at Oamaru. in New Yea
land The method employed was that
IT decorating large quantities of ex-
plosives on the tops Of hills. AS the
rain making took place at about the
same time that a break up OF the
drought was imminent, and as human
nature inclines 70 a belief in the won
ders'' OF science, il was widely reported
thai in some instances the explosions
had brought the rain down. Fortunate
~ the whole OF the experiments were
carefully recorded and supervised by
n trained meteorological, who gives an
u~nprejudiCed account of them In Sy-
mons Meteorological Magazine. Rev.
u. G.. Bates, the observer in question,
arrives at the conclusion, with which
no one who impartially surveys the
facts will disagree, that the explosions
Of ~guncOtton, dynamite. and gunpow-
der. though of considerable force, had
nothing to do with eyoking the rain
and that the energy these artificial ex-
pedients developed was puny in COM
parisOn with the great natural forces
which were producing n cyclone over
thousands Of quare miles when the
rain fell. In some general observations
on the ex 2eriments Mr.. Bates remarks
that the explosions had apparently no
more effect on the vast pans Of air
thar would the striking of a match in
a room. The forces arrayed against
artificial changes in the atmosphere are
tremendous, and almost beyond concep-
ton. About a thousand units Of heat
are needed TO transform a pound of
water TO p When vapor is re-
transformed into water latent heat is
liberated to a corresponding amount
Now an inch OF rain corresponds to
about 6, 900 o 70 the square mile.
The heat developed or released, there
fore, under sue conditions OF conden-
satlon from vapor TO water would con-
sequenJy demand IN equivalent in
work equal to a hundred million horse
power working for half an hour. The
force OF the mightiest explosion with
all it's gas put forth into the air is in
comparison less h a drop in a buck
ct. Rain making. in short, like fog
dispersal, demands far greater forces
than any man is yet able to direct,
produce or control.

reputation for not paying his debts
found himself a defendant in a law
suit. He employed Archie Williams.

asked Mr.. Williams the amount of
his fee.
'It is $2OO."

Why Billiard Tables are Green.
philadelphia Record.)

Billiards is one of the Oldest
games ] know Of said a sporting
man. t'It is, older, even, than Gro
quet, which was played by French
kings great many hundred years
ago. But, while billiards Is SO old.
I'LL bet none of the devotees Of the
worries and the cue can tell me why
a billiard table covering is green?
The billiard table Is always green.
Well, the answer is simple enough
Billiards is merely a corruption Of
the good old English game of bowls,
which was played on beautifully
green lawn. On rainy and winter
days, however, your English sports
man couldn't enjoy his bowls, so
some clever Johnny conceived the
scheme of playing bowls indoors on
mis- imitation green lawn. 1t was too
much of a cinch, however, playing
this game with the band in such
close quarters. 80 the cue was in.
troduced to. put skill at a premium
that's how we got billiards and why
billiard tables are green"

NEW TELEGRAPH COMPANY.
The Telepost Proposes to Make Great
Reduction In Rates.

Washington, April 17.--No less
than five bills relating to the inves-
tigation and regulation of telegraph
companies are now before Congress.
Their provisions range all the way
from government ownership to re-
duction of rates and prohibition Of
the franking privilege now enjoyed
by national legislators.
The services promised by the new
telegraph company, the Telepost, is
the inspiration of number Of these
proposals. The Telepost will carry
messages for one cent word be-
tween ali points, delivering by mes
senger in the usual way. On "tele-
posts delivered at destination
through the mails the rate is half q
cent a word. 1t will also carry free
the filing time and time OF arrival
at the receiving Office.
Members of Congress to whom it
has been demOnstrat" that profit
able business can he done at these
rates say that they will press for re-
forms until some action is taken.
The bill fathered by Senator La
Toilette calls for a thorough investi-
galion of the telegraph companies.
with g view ultimately of taking
them over as part of the postal SER
vice. A step in this direction has
already been taken in the adoption
by the Telepost of the plan to make
postmen the messengers for the de-
livery Of telegrams. This plan would
apply only when the sender's pur-
poses are satisfied by delivery any
time during the business day.

Fire Causes Elephants to stampede,
Driving Spectators Before Them.

Riverside, CAL, April 17.-aAs a

day at the Standard Oil Company's
storage tanks, herd of elephants
We're stampeded, l.. l.. Worley lies at
the city hospital fatally burned and
Miss Ella Gibbs, church deaconess.
is dead. SO,
Worley was a driver of the deliv-
cry wagon, from which the fire was
communicated to the tanks, which
exploded, and he was hurled many
yards from the spot. The flames
spread to the tanks, which instantly
became mass of flames.
A circus three blocks distant, was
about to open for the afternoon per-
formance. The explosion and the
fire caused the showmen to lower the
tents after dispensing the crowd
which had assembled
The herd of elephants became un-
comfortable and they dashed to the
east side of the town, knocking down
fences, out houses and despoiling or
chards that lay in their path. Many
persons narrowly escaped the infuri-
ated animals. All but the largest of
the elephants soon were rounded up.
The leader of the herd then changed
his course toward the city one mile
distant, and entered the court of the
famous Glenwood Hotel. Miss Gibbs
was in the yard in front of the house.
The elephant pinned her against
the house between his tusks, threw
her to the ground and trampled on
her, crushing her chest so that she
died at 10 O'Clock last night. The
animal then proceeded to the door
way, the guests running, panic
stricken, indoors. d. P. Chapman, q
guest Of the house, attempted to
swerve the animal from the court.
He was knocked down and had seve-
raj ribs broken and otherwise injur-
ed. The beast crashed through the
door, walked through the barber
shop and out on the main street,
crossed the street and crashed
through the heavy plate glass win
dow in store. Before being round
ed up at downtown public stable
the animal trampled on another man
and seriously gored him with his
tusks.
One of the keepers attempted to
subdue the animal, but was hurled,
over high fence, sustaining painful
injuries.
The fire at the oil tanks continued
through the. afternoon and 10000
gallons of oil were consumed. The
loss on oil was $1,000 and the loss
on the buildings $4,000.

sible largely for the recognition Of

KANSAS BANK Dash TAKEN.
The Cashier and Citizen Were
Locked Up in Vault.

Coffeyville, Kans., April 1.-TWO
men entered the Citizens State Bank
at Chautauqua, five miles west of
Coffeyville, at $50 o'clock this morn
ing, and after forcing Cashier G. G..
Walterlfouse and Del Easley, a busi-
ness man, to enter the vault, locked
them in and secured all the currency
In sight, amounting to about $4,000,
and escaped Into the Usage Hills,
across the line in Oklahoma.
The robbery was one of the most
daring ever executed in this part Of
Kansas, the sceae OF many bold hold
ups on the part Of the Dalton, Starr
and other gangs of outlaws.
Cashier Walterhouse had scarcely
opened the bank at Chautauqua to-
day and placed his currency on the
couner ready for the days business,
when the two robbers entered.
The robbers, both of them we'll
dressed, made their way leisurely
to the cashiers window. One Of
them was man well known about
town and when he commanded Wal
terhouse and Easley to throw UP
their hands. the latter took the mat
terri the light OF joke. The seri-
GUS intentions of the robbers were
realized a moment later, however,
when they both drew their revolvers
and pointed them at their victims,
ordering them to get into the vault. Z
Without furher ado Walterhouse
and Easley complied. The robbers
quickly slammed the door shut and
then leisurely went about their busi-
ness Of looting the bank.
First, they drew down the win
dow shades facing the street and
locked the doors to prevent inter-
ference. When they had raped up
all the money in sight they walked
out Of the front entrance and up the
main street. One Of the men carried
gunny sack.
Several persons who knew the
man, whom Walterhouse and Easley
SAY is well known Chautauqua
character spoke to him In a friendly
manner.
Nothing in the appearance OF the
robbers betrayed the part they had
just played.
A block away they mounted horses
that they had tied at the curbing
and drove off.
Robber was Escaped Convict.
Chautauqua, Kans., April 17.-C.
G. Walterhouse, cashier of the Citi-
Zens' State Bank of Chautauqua,
which was robbed to-day by two
men, stated positively that one of
the robbers was William Tenant,
aged 23 years, formerly of Chautau-
qua, and who recently escaped from
jail at Nowata, Okla, where he was
being held on charge of horse steal
ing. Tenant sop,e time ago borrow
ed a small sum OF money from the
bank and Walterhouse said that
when Tenant entered the bank to-day
he supposed he had come to renew
the note or take it up. .a y.
