FISH, FROG, TOAD SHOWERS
lnfrequency Of Such Events More to
Be Wondered At Than Fact
That They Occur.

Probably the most remarkable thing
about the many reported showers Of
such objects as fish, frogs, toads and
the like is the skepticism with which
the accounts of these occurrences are
greeted. The wonder is, observes n
writer, not that they occur, but that
they are so infrequent. Everybody has
seen the wind carry away, to be de-
posted In parts unknown, such light
objects as leaves and scraps Of paper.
Everybody has also heard, az least Of
the astonishing feats performed by tor
nadoes and hurricanes in transporting
much heavier articles.
For example, at Beauregard Miss,
April %, 1883, the solid iron screw Of
a cotton press. weighing 675 pounds,
was carried 900 feet. On another oc-
casion a hencoop weighing rs pounds
was transported four miles. In tor
nado at Mount CARMEL, H., piece
of tin roof was carried Is miles and a
church spire 1, miles. What goes up
must come down. We know, from the
facts first cited, that the fall Of so
light and common an object as frog,
for example, must happen rather fire.

If the pastors Of Mitchell have their
way the last game of Sunday baseball,
which was also the first one to be
played in the city for several years,
has been played. They say the state
law emphatically prohibits the play
ing of Sunday ball and they assert
they will go the limit to see that the
law is enforced.
1t is reported that the government
has withdrawn all the balance Of the
homestead lands on the ceded por-
tions of the Cheyenne River Indian
reservation and that such lands will
be offered for sale to the highest bid
ders. This would mean clearing out
of all homestead opportunities in that
part Of the state.
Gov. Peter Norbeck in a statement
declared there were no immediate
prospects of his calling special ses-
sion of the legislature to ratify the
woman suffrage amendment. He said,
however, that should enough states
ratify the amendment to assure its
success an extra session undoubtedly
would be called.
