but that Governor Stubbs will be in
dorsed, that Congressman Madison
and Murdock will be indorsed foI
carrying out the platform pledges

How LlahtnIna Split, 1ree,.

Lightning makes trees explode, like
overcharged boilers. The flame Of the
lightning does not burn them up, nor
does the electric flash split them like
an az. The bolt flows through into all
the damp interstices of the trunk and
into the hollows under Its bark. All
the moisture at once is turned into
steam, which by its immediate explo-
sion rips open the tree. For centuries
this simple theory puzzled scientists,
but they have got 1t right at last
