SCOUTS METHOD
!. : INBREEZE CONTROL
Physicist Sees No Hope of
Producing Cool Weather
by Gas Diffusion.
By tn. Associated Press.

BY the Associated FreSS.
Producing cool weather by diffusing
gas Through the atmosphere, as has
been suggested By German inventor,
IS a good idea, in the opinion of VIII
liam ]. Humphreys. meteorological
physicist of the Weather Bureau-only
1t cannot be worked.
DR.. Humphreys placed the proposal
of Christian Smudt Alexander to cool
Havana by releasing gas at an altitude
of 800 to 500 feet in the same cate
CORY with hundreds of suggestions for
practical making, all of which he
has secuted.
Sound Well, but Don't Work.
"They sound well, but they don't
work." said Dr. Humphreys. THE best
chance would be to release liquef1ed air
or another gas much colder than the
atmosphere. Assuming that gas 100 de-
grees colder than the airs temperature
could be obtained, it would be neces-
sary OF release $4,000 tons of it
at an altitude of 500 feet-in order to
reduce the temperature 10 degrees over
an area of l square mile"
Such volume would be necessary, hi
explained, because gases when mixed
reach mean temperature. He COM
puted the 125 900 tons on the basis oil
volume and weight, assuming that gas
100 degrees colder would reduce one
tenth OF its volume by 10 degrees.
Proposal Impracticable.
"This is offered merely to demon.
strate the utter impracticability of the
proposal" added DR.. Humphreys. Ever
this computation presupposes an abso
lutely MINDLESS day. Otherwise the cole
gas would drift indefinitely, doing n,
good at the earth's surface"
Furthermore, the Government scien
fist argued, merely decreasing tempera
ture would not eliminate discomfort
which results, he reminded, largel,
from humidity. More fundamental h,
suggested, would be a plan to remov,
the moisture from the air in dwellings
simultaneously with cooling it by re-
frigerating systems.

An airplane. evidently out Of con-
troll. was plunging toward the earth
in their immediate vicinity.
It was at a height OF q thousand
feet. The shrill whine or flying wires
and the flat sound Of wind against
crumpled wing surfaces reached the
ears Of the two from the ambulance.
"A pathetic looking thing IL was,

ran a half dozen steps and then

the voters see fit. That is he hopes to win the demo-
cratic nomination for governor next year.
There are five avowed candidates for the job OF
lieutenant governor, subject to the democratic pri-
mary IN July, 1880. They are: Rep. W. s. Barron
OF Bryan, Former Sen. J. D. Parnell Of Wichita Falls,
Sterling p. Strong Of Dallas. Virgil E. Bledsoe Of Lub-
book Rep Ray Holder Of Dallas county, who had
hoped to be a candidate, announced the Barron can

resentative will not make the race for the second
highest office in the gift Of the people. but viii con-
test with George Purl for the senatorial seat now
held by Thomas B. Love, who hopes to be governor
next year.
