CAbb|E FIRES TWO
 SHOTS AND DISAPPEARS
Brown, the Hack Driver, Fired Two Shots From Six Shooter and
 Ran Away.

An odd case of sudden disappearance is that of the hack driver known as Brownie" who was missed from his accustomed stand on Central avenue yesterday. Brown disappeared about 3 o'clock Friday. He fired two shots from a Colts revolver in a room on South Central avenue, ran out of the house and has not been seen since.
 Brown was visiting his friend "Slim," another hack driver. Slim went out of the house to get some ice and as he was coming back he heaid two shots and saw Brown run out of the door and up to the railroad track Brown called up the sheriff's office and wait ed till a constable came before enter ing.
 A 45 calibre Colt was found on the bureau There were two loaded cart ridges in it, two empty shells and two empty chambers. A close examination of the room failed to reveal any bull let holes. The suppostion is that the shells were blanks or that the gun was discharged out of the window. of course there is still another hypothesis, and that is that Brown may have at tempted suicide and carried the bull lets away in his body

MARK TWAlNISMS.

The blending of high spirits and pathos came in Mark Twain's life as in his books.
 His mind turned ever to the droll Once in London I was living with my family at 103 Mount street Between 1O3 and 102 there was parochial workhOuse-quite a long and impos- ing building. One evening. upon com ing in from an outing. I found letter he had written on the sitting room table, and left with his card He spoke of the shock he had received upon finding that next to 102-pre- sumably 103-was the workhouse. He had loved me. but had always feared that l would end by disgracing the family-being hanged, or something but the ''work'us'-that was beyond him. He had not thought it would come to that. And so on through pages of horseplay; his relief on as- certaining the truth and learning his mistake-his regret at not finding me at home-closing with a dinner invi- tation. Once at Geneva, in Switzer- land. I received a long, overflowing letter. full of buoyant oddities, writ ten from London. Two or three hours later came a telegram. Burn letter. Blot is from memory.

COLDEST ATMOSPHERE,
Result of Soundins-BaIloon Ascen.
 sions in Equatorial Africa.

The decrease in the temperature of the air with increasing altitude. ex- emplified in the fact that the top of mountain is colder than its base, is matter of common knowledge
 It is a fact that occasional inyer- sions of this distribution of temper ature may occur-as when fruit trees Tn valley bottom are nipped by a frost that does not touch the hilltops; but 1t remains true in general. says the Scientific American. that the temper ature of the air decreases upward. and that the air at great attitudes is ex- trenely cold as compared with that at the surface of the earth.
 Until Teisserenc de Bort announced his discovery of the isothermal layer. eight years ago. it was not suspected that this decrease of temperature did not extend upward to the limits of the atmosphere.
 Now, however, We know that at a certain altitude, averaging, in middle attitudes, about 11,000 meters (seven miles), the fall in temperature with increasing altitude ceases rather abruptly. usually giving place to a rise in temperature for a certain dis tance upward, above which the tenn perature remains approximately en- stant as far as the highest ascents of sounding balloons have carried thermometric apparatus.
 Hence, above any given spot on the earth's surface. the air is coldest Just below the region of the upper Inversion. which marks the beginning of the great isothermal layer Cor. as it is now called by its discoverer. the stratmosphere).
 The altitude of the isothermal layer varies with the barometric pressure at the earth's surface with the sea- son, and especially with the latitude It is somewhat less over the poles than over middle attitudes, and very much greater over equatorial regions than anywhere else in the world.
 In other words, the decrease of tenn perature with altitude continues to a much greater height within the tropic than elsewhere. and this explains the factt hat the lowest temperature ever registered in the atmosphere was met with almost exactly over the equator, viz, -S4.3 degrees C. (-119.7 de- grees F) at an altitude of 19, 1900 me ters (about twelve miles) at Shirati. on Victoria Nyanza. August 30. 1908.
 This was one of the many interest ing results of the remarkable series of sounding balloon ascensions exc cuted in equatorial Africa by the ex- petition under Beson and Elias, sent out by the Royal Observatory of Lon- denberg, the complete report of which has just been published by the obser- vatory.
