MYSTERY OFTHE WEATHER Locs.1 Weather Observer Paddock Speaks. To anyone looking for a subject hard to comprebeud, whose problems seem too deep to be solved by any human intellect, we would, without hesitation, recommend those changes in temperature, in moisture and in the winds commonly called "weather." Scientific men love to study and ex periment in these fields, but they seem, invariably, to bo able to pro coed only to certain points and there they must stop; they cannot pass be yond, for tho farther depths aro en shrouded in a mystery too profound for the present capacity of the human mi ud. Tho study of weather conditions aud problems has, however, arrived at that stage of advancement where the government has deemed it wise to establish a department for tho ex elusive study and reporting of weather conditions. This bureau has, during tho few years it has been in operation, been of great service to the country in its warnings to men both on land aud on the sea. In several instances, a knowledge of tho fact that a storm was raging at sea has enabled a caution to bo given to ships not to leave port, and in the case of tho cyclone the probable dirto- tion it will follow has been given as a warning to those, who live in its liath. That all changes in the weath er come as a result of the operation of fixed natural laws, is, I think, evi dent to aH, but thoso laws and the 'why and wherefore" of their work ing, is understood but imperfectly We know, for instance, that tho clouds we see above us, condense in to water and doscend upon the earth as ruin. We know also that water is formed by the anion of two gases. aud that these two gases aro a part of the very air wo breathe and without which we could not live. Now, what is tho secret of the formation of witter, that it should come from clouds in torrents at some periods, and ut other times, though tho heaveus are black with them, no rain whatever Is forinod? Wo may claim to explain all these things in all particulars, but the writer is firmly convinced that we are as yet stand ing upon the mero edge of the Sold of discovery ; that the future ii laden with a wealth of knowledge that wo do not now iiossess, and, indeed, scarcely dream of. We have just re ceived an object lesson oil rainfall. The clouds havo lavorod us with a little over 0' inches of water in two weeks' time. We are not alono in tho matter however, for the storm has been general thoughout the state and a good portion of the east. It Is the opinion of scientists that the sun has been the controlling factor in this storm. The sun Is sometimes covered to some extent with black siuts, and wo have been learning slowly that storm periods on tho earth have a connection with them, that is, that when the sun shows a goodly array of spots, storms aro sure to follow some here on the globe. These phenomena in the sun, it has been ascertained, vary through a period of a little over eleven years, from a minimum, whe n only one or two, or perhaps none at all will be visible, to a maximum period when there will bo several huge black patches open tho sun's disc, bear! ug all the evidences of terriflo forces at work in that luminary. Such a niaixmuin period culminated on the lllst of October, last, and at tho same time tho aurora borealis or "Northern lights" were seen over a huge portion of tho earth with a brilliancy not equalled in many years. Olio of these spots, visihlo a few weeks ago, was large enough to take in a small body the si.o of this little earth we live on. The storm we have just passed through has followed these phe nomena, and we have had an amount or rain not equalled in the same length of time during the 14 years the station has been established at Grants Pass.

When the question of a nianso and tho manse fund was first being talked of by tho Presbylerliiii church, there was a desire lu the mind of each one of the members of the church to do something toward tho cause. This dseiro took firm hold of little Miss Flanagan, and she startled her parents, Dr. and Mrs. F. W. FUiua. gnu a few months ago, by announcing that she was going to give a concert for the benefit of the muiise fund. This, coming from K-yenr old Wini fred, was looked ut,ioii for a timo us a child's fancy. Not so with the littlo lady she was firm in her desire.
