THE MORNING- OKEGONIAN, SATURDAY, JANUARY 6, 1900. THE CHINESE WAY. Lord Bcrcsford Relates an Incident of Their Military Engineerings Cassier's Magazine. How imiofa room still remains in China for the exercise of educational effort was Illustrated recently in an Interesting man ner by Lord Charles Beresford, in an ad dress before i&e Institution of Mechanical Engineers. In the arsenal at Shanghai he happened to notice a Krupp gun fitted with an Armstrong breechpiece. He was told that this had been rendered necessary because the Chinese had blown oft the original breechpiece, and on going to a fort upon the river, in charge of a man darin, he found out how the accident hap pened. They were using for the 67-ton guns a powder -which was quite unsuit able, and be said: "That powder will blow the breechpiece off." The mandarin nodded, smiled and answered: "Yes, it does." The last time the gun was flred, he said, it killed 14 men; so then they loaded another gun and fired it, and that time 2A men. were killed. These guns must have cost In. mounting and breech ing at least 50,000. At another place he found that the gun was actually loaded in the magazine, and he said: "If there were any carelessness in sponging the gun after firing, the mag azine would be blown up." The mandarin in charge gave him a slap on the back and replied: "You are one of the clever est men I have ever met The year before last we did fire these guns, and we blew up the magazine just as you have said. I will show you where it was." The man darin added that be did not remember how many men were killed, but he be lieved it was 50. Novel Barometers. Indianapolis Press.

A general rjse in temperature has taken place ever nearly the whole region from which re ports are received, embracing most of the coun try west of the Rocky mountains and .Montana and the Dakotas east of them. Rain has been General in the past 12 hours over British Co lumbia, Washington, Eastern Oregon and Northern California. The rain and warmer weather are due to the low-pressure area that has been so long off the coast, at last mov ing northeastward. It is now central over British Columbia, and, as there is nothing now to oppose it, it will continue toward the East rari'ily. The high pressure which so long barred its progress is now far to the south. Warm -weather for the season will continue over the Pacific Northwest, Montana, "Wyoming and the Canadian provinces. "West of the Cascades tre temperature is. now from 48 to 54 deg., v-Unb is high for the season. At Walla "Walla it Is 50 deg. "WEATHER FORECASTS.
