 Complete Surprise
 The additional charges came as Q complete surprise and defense counsel secured a continuance till tomorrow, when evidence on the latest accusation against the two youths will be heard. Total bonds for Churchelow and Burns were set at $9,500 each. Bonds on the breaking and entering charge, which had been $5,000 were raised to $7,000 by Judge Mascolo as he bade the bindover and bonds of $2,5OO were set for the new charge of tampering with state witness. The two accused were unable to raise that amount late this aftcr- noon and were held at head quarters. g..tl

Hackensaclx, N. J.. Jan 21-(UPi Russell A. Hey, AZ, and baldieh, studied himself in his mirror any number of times today.

 The attack occurred Oct 30. Mrs Hey had arranged a picnic supper with her husband. While they ate salami sandwiches and admired the view at Point Lookout, Price appeared and pushed Hey over the edge. He caught bush growing out of the side of the almost sheer wall. Price, police said. threw rocks at him until he loosened his hold. He dropped 15 feet to a nar- row ledge.
 At the time he thought Price was a bandit. ..
 Hey recollected today that once before he had had a picnic with his wife on the cliffs. At her sug- gestion they played tag and he was inadvertently pushed over the edge.

COMES UP AGAIN

]. Adam Bede, the we'll known hui
mOrist of Duluth, who formerly re-
sided for more than a quarter of a
century at Pine City, is back in poll
tics again. He has filed for the Of
flee of city commissioner in Duluth,
the primary election to be held March
Is. About % years ago Mr.. Bede was
a member of Congress from the old
Eighth district. He was known then
as the humOrist of Congress and when
things were dull and dreary it was
Mr.. Bede who could put pep into the
proceedings.
He has spoken on the Chautauqua
platform and during political cam
paigns ever since and previous to his
service as congressman, and is known
over the entire country. ! He also
served as a member of the Minnesota
House of Representatives In the 1881
session.
One thing which is pleasing about
a man of Mr.. Bede's disposition and
that is win or lose, he is all the
same. Due to his excellent sense of
humor he harbors no bitterness to-
wards his opponents.

THE SILVER LINING

AS MinnesOtans battle their way
through snowdrifts in town and coun-
try these days, they can cheer them
selves with the thought that this
cloud has the proverbial silver lining
For the heavy snow that blankets
much of the state means that the
problem of depleted subsoil moisture
will not be with them next spring
when planting time comes.
Coming after the heavy fall rains
the snow will provide a moisture re-
serve of inestimable value to agricul-
ture, the states chief industry. The
ground will have more moisture than
for several years, and with reason
ably favorable conditions in the next
growing season the farm output should
be greater than for some time.
Recreation, which also ranks as a
major Minnesota industry, will benefit
greatly, too. Streams and lakes will
have more water in them, making bet
ter sport for the thousands of anglers,
both resident and nonresident, who
contribute large sums to the state
government in license fees and help
private business in the various locali-
ties by their patronage.
When swamps are filled with water
again, the forest fire hazard, so seri-
Gus for the last few years, will be les
sened, and this will not only help to
decrease the troubles of the conserva-
ton authorities, but will make vaca-
lions in the woods more pleasurable.

HUEY SCORES AGAIN

Those who still regard Sen. Huey
Long as national clown might we'll
revise their opinion. especially in
view of his latest outbreak in Louisi-
ana.
While the size of his puppet gov
ernment's army" is small, it's success
in quelling opposition in Baton Rouge
by declaring martial Law and using
tear gas on objecting citizens is worth
bordering.
What the "Kingfsh" can do in a
small parish of the state when his
will is crossed and opposition becomes
physical he will soon be able to do
throughout the entire commonwealth
unless the citizens of Louisiana
come to their senses before long.
1t is no secret that beneath the

ing out shrewdly conceived cam
paign to gain complete control not
only of his native state but of the en-

A RISE COMING
(St. Paul Daily News)

\oI. ebui 11dlIy ANCWoJ
The cost of living is going to take
a jump, if charts prepared by new
deal forecasters in Washington are
correct
Between now and June 1, it is esti-
mated prices will undergo a steady
rise. This, it is stated, will be due
chiefly to increased employment. a
great volume of business turnover,
and the expenditure of $4,000, 900, 900
on the recovery and relief budget.
The prospect is one to be greeted
with mixed emotions. A steadily ris-
ing price level will be accompanied
by a general increase in values which
will make it easier to pay debts-and
reduction of our tremendous load of
debt is an essential to recovery.
On the other hand, if the cost of
living rises faster than wages and
salaries, the wage Garner and the
white collar worker will feel the pinch
severely.
Fixing things SO that prices rise
just fast enough, but not too fast, is
apt to be ticklish job.

May Get More
Rain in Future

There is not a man, woman or
child in Minnesota but what would
express a desire to have a little more
moisture from the skies during the
coming year if they were asked the
question, and in compliance with this
desire DR.. George A. Thiel of the Uni
versity of Minnesota's geology depart
ment, has indicated an upward trend
in the annual precipitation for the
next 40 years.
Minnesota receives on an average
| about 10 inches more precipitation in
the eastern part Of the state than in
northwestern counties, Mr.. Thiel said
in a recent lecture. In the Twin City
region the average rainfall for the
crop season alone, from May to Au
gust inclusive for the past 81 years
has been 11.55 inches. In annual
precipitation the greatest fluctuation
has been from 11.59 inches in 1910 to
40 inches in the following year, 1911.
There has been a decreasing trend
in precipitation over the 40 years
prior to 1888, in the northern tier Of
states, and rising trend in the south.
In Minnesota, for example, the
average for 10 years ending in 1908
was approximately 29.5 inches, and
for the decade ending with 1888 the
average is just a little more than
25 inches. In other words, the for
mer ten year period had nearly 80
per cent more rainfall than the latter.
An examination Of the long time
record for the Twin City area shows
that conditions similar to those now
being experienced have occurred
twice before in the last 100 years.
Plotted as trend line, it would show
three low points, the decades ending
in 1848, 1894 and 1888. The averages
for those years are practically the
same. Thus, our recent drouth was
no more severe than those of 40 and
80 years ago.
DR.. Thiel said there is no evidence
whatever that man can accomplish
anything by efforts to create rain
artificially.
The total annual fall Of water from
the skies on the earth's entire land
area. he said, is about 26.600 cubic
miles. In polar regions the snowfall
represents only from eight to fifteen
inches of water, whereas on the south
ern slopes of the Himalaya mountains
the rainfall may be as much as 500
inches a year. In deserts only few
inches fall per year, and three years
have been known to pass in the Can
airy Islands without any rainfall.
An amount of water equal to the
whole volume of the oceans is taken
up by the atmosphere and poured
back over the land about once in 49,
900 years, and during the course Of
geologic time it is estimated that
this cycle has been completed some
10000 times. On the other hand,
one-fifth Of the evaporation over the
earth's surface comes from the land,
while four-fffths come from the
oceans But much OF the water evap-
Grated over the oceans fall back into
the sea. OF its total amount only
about seven per cent is carried over
the land and precipitated there.
