Five Hurt.

Paris.-The ordinary Partisan duel
is bloodless and harmless, but one

which was neither. 1t ended in the
wounding of five policemen, two of

duellists escaped unframed.

dance halls of Montmartre to the
strains of the blue Danube" waltz,
and woman, beautiful, of course, was
the cause. Two of the young men at
the dance were violently in love with
this queen of beauty and she smiled
upon each with equal fervor and dis
tributed her dances with true femi-
nine acumen until near the end Of the
ball, when she inadvertently gave the
same waltz to each of the rivals.
There was at once a dispute and 1t
ragged until the master of the floor be-
sought them to take their quarrel else

a neighboring street, where they be-

Their excitement and the wine they
had imbibed, to say nothing of the
uncertain light of earliest dawn, made
their aim somewhat erratic. They

years the sun spots reach a maximum
as regards number and area. Four
years later they have reached a min
imum, from which they gradually in
crease for seven years. They have
also found that the sun spots have
controlling effect upon the amount OF
heat radiated from the sun. They act
as a sort of blanket, and less heat
comes from the portion Of the sun un-
der the spots than from the other por-
tons. A difference of rs per cent was
recorded in the heat radiated from the
part of the sun covered by a spot and
the clear portion. This discovery,
taken with a careful examination OF
meteorological data, such as tempera-
lures in the year when the sun spots
were most numerous, has prompted
the scientists to venture the opinion
that the presence of sun spots makes
for cold weather.
II their theory is right and the COM
ing and disappearing of sun spots can
be predicted years or months in ad-
vance, it follows that it should be pos
sible to make weather forecasts six
months or so ahead of time. 1t would

er words, 1t would be possible to know
as much as the patent medicine alma
macs pretend to know. That this
knowledge would mean the saving of
many million dollars year is plain
after a moments thought. Farmers,
for instance, would know what sort Of
crop to SOW in order to take advan-
tage of the coming season. Manufac-
turers would know what sort of cloth
ing would be most seasonable, and all
industries that are more or less de-
pendent upon the weather would be
able to calculate precisely for months
in advance. Some such stride In the
science of meteorology might be rea-
sonably expected. 1t Is long overdue.

With Aid Of BaIometer II ls Possible

SUMS Ray - Predictions
Far Ahead.

Washington.-It was Mark Twain
who complained that people kept talk
ing and talking about the weather. but
nobody ever did anything about II
This Just reproach may be removed
as the result of some very important
discoveries that have been made by
little group of American meterologists.
These scientists have been carefully
observing the sun for ten years, and
have come to the conclusion that our
weather is due to changes upon the
surface of the sun. They say that the
sun spots are responsible. When the
spots are many and large the weather
is apt to be cold. When they are small
and few the weather will probably be
warm. The differences are Questioned
by some other scientists, but their
chief scientific discovery, namely, that
the radiation of heat from the sun Is
not constant, is being generally ac-
cepted, and is considered Of great
value to future observations.
The discovery that there was no
solar constant" as 1t is called. name
ly, that the amount of heat radiated
by the sun is not constant, but fiuctu-
ates almost as much as the amount OF
heat generated in a furnace, was due
to the invention by Prof. S. P. Langley
of the Smithsonian Institution Of re-
markable instrument he called the boil
ometer. This apparatus is thermom-
eter of such surprising sensitiveness
that it will record a millionth Of de-
gree of heat. Equipped with bolom-
eters, a special post of observation
was established near the summit or
Mount Whitney, in California, and an
other in Algiers. The object Of max
ing the observations from two widely
separated stations was to insure
against error due to local atmospheric
causes. For ten years the bolometers
have been at work in California and AT
RIGA, and the scientists believe that
the time has been long enough to JUS
tify them in making some important
congratulations concerning sun spots.
They have found, for instance, that
sun spots appear and disappear with
certain regularity. Every eleven

Tokyo, Japan.-I and my Buddhist

on the wisdom of nature which grows
green foliage in summer, and our
hearts leapt up when we first beheld
Full mountain, or, more true TO say,
the white ghost of Full, as certain

ghost half-veiled in dream-mist, al

or right, then from behind or before,
during the run of 70 or 80 miles along
the Pacific coast, where she mirrors
her own beautiful face patiently and
breathlessly all the day on the waves
of jade. Why were our minds so
much taken with Full mountain? Be
cause we were this day, July 20, on
the very way to climb the holy noun
tain Of Japan.
AS our serpent-like train crossed
the desolate Banryu river and we en-
tered the mountains and valleys Of
the Hakone range, our immediate
thought was that we had happened

main of some Scottish mountain elf

on which the words, I'VE two shad-

were written; and our shoulders bore,
according to the fashion, wide straw
rain-coats. We sang a song that was
not Of city's rise or fall, but of a
wind or flower, for we were glad that
our ascent of Full mountain had start
ed well. But where was the noun
tain? We were, indeed, hardly yet
on the real Full; but the way in
front and behind us was darkened
by the heavy fog, except for a few
yards. We were encouraged by the
guide, who assured us of the fair sun
light on Full mountain, on whose
top our footsteps would be printed on
the morrow.
