when rain falls from cloudless
sky 1t Is generally believed that the
moisture has been brought by the wind
at a great elevation. In the south At
lantlc it has been known to rain for
more than m hour while the sky was
entirely free from clouds. In the island
of 8Iauritius it is not at MI uncommon
for rain to come from a cloudless heav-
en-. Slight showers fill during the
evening when the stars are shining
brightly. 1t IS thought by some that
these showers are the result Of parti-
cles OF Ice formed IN the higher region
of the atmosphere melting and falling.
Others attribute it to currents of warm
and cold air travelling in opposite di-
rections. with the result that the lat
ter condenses some Of the moisture in
the former and causes It to fall in the
form OF rain.

Speaker Clarke's Confession.

Congressional Record: Mr.. Clarke
This talk Of secrecy is Of no avail.
Why, the statutes Of every state in the
union enjoin it in four cases. A law
yer is not permitted to go on the wit
ness stand and tell what his client
told him, and if he did it he would be
drummed out Of the community, as he
ought to be. A Catholic priest or
Protestant preacher Is not permitted to
go on the witness stand and tell what
his parishiOner old him. A doctor is
not permitted to go on the witness
stand and tell what his patient told
him. Husband and wife, except in
cases Of assault or IL divorce suit, are
not permitted to go on the witness
other, and IL they were permitted to
do it earth would be a pandemonium
in a twelVc-month. If 1t We're an
nOunced. that the preachers and the
priests, the doctors and the lawyers,
the husbands and the wives were going
on the housetODs tomorrow morning
and tell what they know, there would
be the greatest hegira Of Americans
ever seen on the face of the earth.
