WEATHER TO ORDER.
It May Possibly Be Brought About by
the Aid of Electricity.


the Aid of Electricity.
Is It possible to make weather to or
der? In the opinion Of Sir Oliver
Lodge. it Is by 10 means beyond the
powers Of man. He advances the sug-
gestion that exploration Of the upper
regions would result in discoveries
which would enable man to control the
weather.
The latter. be contends. is merely a
matter Of electrical conditions. and the
ingredients necessary for fine weather
are an upper atmosphere charged with
positive electricity and a negative
charge upon the earth's surface. Much.
he says. could be done by placing
copper rod round the earth parallel to
the equator and discharging millions
Of amperes (unitsi from this rod. Sir
Oliver points out that we have spent
millions on building railways. and why
not invest capital in controlling the
weather By this means?
Meantime, while We are thinkin.
about the copper rod. much might be
done by electricians. Sir Oliver Lodge
suggests that the should ascend 81
high mountain. erect a powerful gen
Grating station and discharge all the
positive electricity they can produce
into the air. BY this means much of
the abnormal weather from which we
suffer at times might be avoided and
nature be induced to provide us with
more regular seasons.-Rocky Noun

ALLEGED ASSAULT VICTIM
SAID TO BE IN SIOUX CITY

Vermilion s. D.. Jan. 24.--In the
Clay county circuit court Joseph
Sutherland, a we'll known Clay county
young man. who recently was con-
victed OF the charge Of attempted
statutory assault, was sentenced to a
term Of one year in prison, but the
court suspended the sentence pending
good behavior on the part Of the de-
PENDANT.
The plaintiff In the action against
Sutherland was Miss Mayme Johnson.
formerly night telephone operator In
Vermilion, who now is understood to be
in Sioux City. The young woman also
was the complaining witness in a
somewhat similar case against Bud
Mount, former night chief of police Of
Vermillion, who disappeared about the
time complaint in the case was filed.
He returned recently and when the
case against him was called for pre-
liminary hearing the complaining wit
ness was not in court, and accordingly
the case against Mount was dismissed.

fields are located near Big Muddy,

elected. At the directors meeting B.
b. Ward was chosen president: Ben M.

Local parties had leased the lands
controlled by the company and In
tended to promote the scheme, but one
Of the parties, 1t is claimed. was not
satisfied with the manner in which
money was being put up and so in
duced the Aberdeen capitalists to in
vest. This they did and today a COM

from Aberdeen to the fields, and oper-
atoms will start at once to put the
project in working shape.
