Burlington. Aug. 17.-Rev. William
a. Sunday, the baseball evangelist, has
stamped the rumor that he was to give
up the evangelizing business as bunk"
Several weeks ago it was stated pos
lively in dispatches from the west
that Sunday had retired from tho min
istry and would spend the rest of his
days on his farm on the Hood river
in Oregon. a letter from Mr.. Sunday
in reply to a request for information
on the rumor leaves no doubt of the
untruth of the statement. In his let
ter Sunday says:
The report that am to retire IS all
onsense-bunk = hot air. I never
dreamed Of such a thing. My life's
work IS to preach. That's what I
shall do until l die.
Nothing can induce me to fo-sake
the call Of God to preach the gospel.
I refused an offer OF $4,000 for chau-
tauqua work IN order to spend the
summer resting. to build up great
reserve force, in order that l may work
the harder the coming year. Positively
nothing can influence me 10 turn aside

Tho Hiahest Clouds.

During the last year a scientist at
tached to one of Uncle Sans bureaus
at Washington has been engaged in
measuring the height Of clouds by
photography. Simultaneous pictures Of
cloud are made by two cam eras
placed six hundred feet apart and con-
nected by telegraph wires. From the
amount of displacement of the cloud
caused by viewing 1t alternately from
each end Of the six hundred-foot base
line, it's height can be calculated. Some
Of the "mackerel sky" clouds photo
graphed were seven and a quarter
