CANNON STOPS RAIL.
! SATISFACTORY RESULTS OF EX
PERIMENTS IN FRANCE.
I
--
Damage from Storms Absolutely
Checked in Localities Where
Firing Has Been
Done.
The cannon defense against hail
forms the subject of a report to the
state department by United States
Consul Covert at Lyon, France. The
Hail Cannon society of Limas has
prepared a report on the use of the
cannon during the past year. The re
port deals with the experience of 28
cannon-firing societies, which used 462
cannon in a number of storms. It ap
pears that during the 15 years prior
to the use of cannon the losses from
bail amounted to about $3,088,000, and
that during the five years in which
cannon have been in use in the same
territory the losses were but $159,412.
During the year 1904 the same com
munes sustained no losses whatever,
a fact attributed entirely to use of)
cannon. The weiter of the report
says:
“We base our confidence in the
efficacy of the firing on the fact: that
the thunder and lightning ceased, the }
wind abated and the clouds digap- !
peared under the firing of the oannon,
and a mild fall of rain and soft snow
succeeded. These facts are undenia
ble.”
The report reviews the results of
he firing in 28 storms during the
months of April, May, June, July and
September. The results are generally
the same—cessation of the thunder
and lightning, dispersion of the clouds
and a slight fall of rain and snow.
Where no cannon were used the hail
fell and caused serious damages. “The
communes not defended by cannon i
suffered enormously.” In speaking of
one storm the report says.^
"This storm wras literally arrested
at the east on the boundaries of the
firing. In the northwest- and a little
distanoe from the cannon a hurricane
swept over the country with violence,
everywhere causing great damage.”
The report contains several pages
on the storm of July 22, 1904, which
causteu uam^n iu whit
the country not protected by the can
non. This hurricane caused incalcu
lable damage in 29 communes. Two
communes. Lozanne and Belmont,
were entirely desolated, “but they had
but a few cannon, one six and the
other eight. They are separated by
a great distance from the country that
Is provided with cannon." The mayor
of Lozanne, who is the president of
the society for defense against the
hall, wrote that his neighbors found
themselves upon the edge of the com
mune* where there was no defense
against the hail and wers unable to
resist a storm of such vlolenc*. He
says: “During the first fftw minutes
of the storm the firing was followed
by the falling of a few soft hailstones,
and everybody noticed, even in that
general storm, that the thunder and
lightning diminished as the firing con
tinued, and that the diminution was
caused by the cannon.” In several
places all traces of vegetation disap
peared and the consternation was
great in tlia wine-growing communes
The mayor of Belmont reports that
the firing was powerless in his com
mune on account of the small number
of cannon.
The report mentions several locali
ties where the firing was very active,
and it say* the hail was checked when
the firing commenced. In the eouutry
known as Arbresle there were, from
all accounts, but few cannon in use,
and the destruction from hail was
widespread and disastrous.
In the great Beaujoiais wine dls
1 trict,"where the country “fairly bris
tled with cannon,” the farmers say
that they found it necessary to fire
only on the boundaries of the large
vineyards, and that, as a rule, but
very little tiring occurred in the cen
! fer of the field. The consul says he
! has met a dozen or more large wine
growers who assert emphatically that
they have not the remotest doubt of
the efficacy of the cannon to destroy
the hail in the clouds and to turn It
Into a mild rain.
I “Tho of cannon aeainst the !
hail," says Consul Covert, 'will tin- |
doubtedly continue in France until (
some authority appointed by the gov
ernment shall assume control of the j
experiments and demonstrate its itn
potency, if such a thing be possible.
The farmers of Arbresle. where but
few cannon were used, are preparing
to wage a more effective campaign ;
against the hail next year. Their i
president and the other officers of their :
societies are of the opinion that the :
sole cause of their losses this year
was the failure to use a sufficient •
number of cannon.”
The -Strain of American Life.’
April It?, 1888.—Speaking of the
“strain of American life.” \V. de
clared that “every man is trying to
outdo every other" man—giving up
! modesty, giving up honesty, giving up
generosity, to do it; creating a war,
every man against every man; the
whole wretched business falsely keyed
by money-ideals, money-politics,
money-religions, money-men."—“With

According to the New- York Sun. a

VICTIMS IN TIMES OF PEACE
Said That Railways Kill and Malm
More Men Than the Blood
iest of Wars.
When the young men of the coun
try are called forth to war, they marcn
through the streets with flags flying
end bands playing inspiring music.
The people crowd the streets and greet
them with applause. When news of a
battle is received, the entire nation
is sad at the story of lives destroyed.
Those who thus die are honored for
their heroism, and monuments are
erected to their memory, while those
who return maimed are pensioned.
Not so, however, the army which goi*
forth daily to do duty upon our rail
roads. rfOne in every 80 of them will
be permanently disabled, and one In
every nine of the injured will be killed,
says Pearson’s Magazine. They pass
away, unknown and unhonored, savw
as to their families and friends.
A more vivid notion of the destruc
tiveness of railroads may be had by j
considering the fact that in the great
Crimean conflict, which wra3 one of the
bloodiest wars in history, the British
lost less thau half as many slain and
wounded as were killed and maimed
on the iron roads in this country dur
ing last year. In any twelvemonth
about 60,000 persons are killed or in
jured on the railroads of the United
States—a much greater number than
fell at the battle of Sedan, which
sealed the fate of the second empire of
France. Wellington won Waterloo,
and Meade Gettysburg, with losses of
3,185 and 23,003 respectively, and the
total losses on both sides at Shiloh
In the two days’ murderous fight did
not reach 24,000.
Mora railroad employes ^ere killed
in the United States last year than
three times the number of union men
slain at the battles of Lookout Moun
tain, Missionary Ridge and Orchard
Knob combined. The number of In
jured among these workers in the
transportation business was greater
than that of the wounded and missing
at.Shiloh. Antietam and the First and
Second Bull Run combined. More
faithful toilers on the iron roads of
this country went down in sudden
death during the twelvemonth than
perished in the Battle of the Wilder
ness.
iMh year, one In every ten train
men la the United States (this term
including engineers, firemen, conduc
tors and hrakemen) is injured, and one
in every 135 is killed. Two hundred
and fifty men are killed and 2,800 are
disabled in an average twelvemonth,
while coupling or uncoupling cars. In
the same length of time 95 persons are
slain and 990 injured, by being
knocked from cars by bridges and oth
er obstacles at the side of the track.
On the other hand, only one passenger
is killed for every 1,880,001) carried,
and one hurt for every 97,000. The
average passenger travels 2.946,272
miles before he is injured, and he goes
57,000,000 miles before he loses hii
life.
FAMOUS FOR INDUSTRY.
Sobriety and Decency of Life a Mark
of the German Peasant ef
To-Day.
The bauer (peasant farmer) hugs the
soil, and will waste none of it for
hedges. He cultivates his land in ob
long plots, each strip carrying one
crop—corn, rye, tobacco, beet, man
gold, turnip or what not, says a let
ter in the London Spectator. He work*
in summer from light to dark; in
winter as it suits him. His fruit trees
are planted along the roads and field
paths which run through and separata
the tillaged acreage whereof his vil
lage is the pivot.
He inherits the land as his father
inherited it. before him. and each herit
able portion is supposed to furnish
sustenance for so many lives. He
swinks to keep clear of the money
iending shark, and here industrialism
helps. For if brothers and sisters
throng past ability of support from
the land, they take work at the near
est factory. Infrequently several miles
distant. That eases the ancestral lean
ness, and makes readjustment feas
ible However the bauer may moil
week in, week out, his linen is spot
less and his clothes unsoiled on Sun
days. His wife would scorn herself
were they otherwise. Somewhat un
(outh. rough, bluff, shrewd, stanch, the
military authorities wisely take heavy
toll of his sound lungs and muscular
limbs. l ney Know a man ut u tuoj
see one. And women do much of the
actual farm work in Germany as a
consequence.
What hard-working mothers, ami
wives and daughters are the women
ot Germany! What splendid women!
What does not that great nation owe
to its women! Broad-bosomed, deep
rhested. wide-backed, big-hipped, rare
ly beautiful, but. however plain, pleas
ant-faced. healthy creatures. No shirk
ing of maternity with them. And
their husbands’ comrades and sharers
of their troubles always, yet always
it would seem, making Peter’s injunc
tion their absolute rule of conduct.
Inappropriate Ornaments.
On taking their seats for the iirst
on the bench at the’ newly erected
courthouse at Delmerhorst, Germany,
the judges were much perturbed to
dmi that the architect had ornament
ed the portico with the sculptured
head of a fox on one side amd that of
a sheep on the other.
Eavesdropping?
Miss Elderleigh—Would you believe
it my dear—I listened to six declara
tions of love at the dance last night!
Miss Speight—How interesting! You
must have been sitting behind soma
lawfully pretty girl! Chicago Sua.

Physicians tell us that all
the blood in a healthy
human body passes through
the heart once in every two
minutes. If this action be
comes irregular the whole
body suffers. Poor health
follows poor blood ; Scott’s
Emulsion makes the blood
pure. One reason why
SCOTT’S
EMULSION
is such a great aid is because \
it passes so quickly into
the blood. It is partly di
gested before it enters the
stomach ; a double advan
tage in this. Less work
for the stomach; quicker
and more direct benefits.
To get the greatest amount
of good with the least pos
sible effort is the desire of
everyone in poor health.
Scott’s Emulsion does just
that. A change for the
better takes place even be
fore you expect it.
