PETRoGRkD, May 27.-Desperate
attacks by the Germans facing the
Russian defensive positions north Of
Lake Miadziol were beaten back by
the Slavs yesterday, according to the
official reports issued by the war Office

part, comparative quiet ruled.

Mescpotamia, indicate that the armies
there are gathering themselves for
fresh offepsives. There were no changes
mentioned in any Of the Dispatches
from that front.

How Raindrops Make the Lightning

How Raindrops Make the Lightning.
An English scientist declares that
the splitting OF raindrops IN falling
through the ascending air currents.
which are characteristic OF thunder
storms. is the source OF the lightning.
The small drops with negative saErEes
go up with the wind while large ones
with positive charges stay below.
Thus during a thunderstorm there Is
usually q region Of positive electricity
between the positive earth and the
negative upper portion When. the
charge has become sufficient q series
OF direct current discharges usually
take place along approximately the
same line and these produce what We
see as lightning fash
