Thousands of IONS of Dust.

attention TO the study of the remarka-
BILE phenomena OF dust and sand storms
In the arid regions of the west. every

ordinary dry storm" contains at least
225 tons of dust. while In severe storms
OF this kind as much as 10000 tons OF
dust and sand may be contained in a

The crab sometimes catches a fish,
and 1t catches 1t without hook and line.
1t lies in wait, perhaps in some creek,
with it's jaws extended In front and
open. Perhaps school Of killies comes
along. and 1t may be that killie on the
outskirts of the school may swim un-
suspectingly along through the clear
water between the upper and lower
parts of one of the modonless open
claws of the crab. When 1t is well
within them the claw suddenly snaps
together and that particular little killie
goes no farther.

WERE FOUND TOBE MOT GUILTY.


Three young men, Ness, Colvin
and Freeman, were taken in Gus
tody Saturday night by Marshall
Morley and Constable McGreevy
on the charge of disturbing the
peace. The men were released on
bail and their trials set for Mon
day afternoon. Freeman forfeited
bail. Colvin and Ness stood trial
and were acquitted by jury in
Justice of Peace Kent's court.
The trial of the case occupied all
of the afternoon Monday and part
of the evening and was heard by a
large crowd of spectators. The
wrangling and disputes of the OPP
posing counsel furnished enter
tainment at the trial. For the
state two witnesses testified that
there had been a disturbance and
the third testified that there had
been a scuffle and it looked as if
the defendants were about to fight.
Two of the states witnesses were
unable to swear as to who had
created the disturbance and had
seen no blows struck. For the de-
Tense six witnesses swore that
there had been no unusual commo-
ton and had been no fighting
The testimony for the defense was
contradictory in several points.

How Trees Are Balanced.

A tree grows in perfect balance on
every side. When a large branch
shoots out on one side one OF equal
size or two smaller appear on the other.
The roots are balanced In the same
way, a large branch on one side being
matched by large root. The center
OF gravity is thus always perfectly
maintained.
