A dispatch to the St Louis Ii.fubli
from Midland, Teas. nvs: "Your cor

have again achieved success In their el
torts to produce rainfall by artificial meant.
and all this region Is rejoicing in a heavy
and widespread rain-storm, which insures
winter grass and averts the distress which
a few weeks more of dry weather would
have brought. This is the second heavy
rain on the Morris ranch hich has fallen
inside of eight days, besliea several light
showers, and there saems to be no reason.
able doubt that the rain-makers ceserve
considerable credit for the copiousness of
the fall.
"Ten days ago the experimenters began
operations, and they have kept up a con.
tinual skirmish since that time. Some of
the most powerful apparatus has not been
used to a great extent, but large quantities
of rock-a-rcck mlxtures.dynamite and oxy.
hydrogen gas have been exploded on the
ground, from kites and In balloons. The
readings of the Instruments which Prof
Curtis of the Smithsonian Institute
brought from the Weather Bureau at
Washington clearly show that the opera
tions have had marked enects upon me
teorological conditions and have produced
definite and practical results. The con
tinued series of explosions last week re
sulted Monday night In an unsettled con
dltion of the atmosphere, light broken
clouds floated ovetbead and the moonlight
shone brightly between them. A heavy
charge of rock- a-rock was fired for more
than fifty spectators, and forty seconds af
ter the explosion followed the observers
-were treated to the rare sight of a beauti
ful lunar rainbow. This operation was
repeated four times during the evening,
when a light cloud came directly overhead
and in every case the rain fell In from
-twelve to forty seconds. Thp firing was
redoubled Tuesday and the clouds gather
ed and formed steadily all day until 6 p m,
the rain again began to fall. Before 10
o'clock thisAyhple region was drenched
flr(d SPaUed.
Sill! more effective appaiatus will be
brought Into operation tfc-morrow,and the
rain-makers expect to see a third storm
over the arid Llano Estacado before the
week is out. If, so, the prairie dogs will
get a drowning out, which has been al
""most unprecedented.

I AN EXTfUOKUlJfAUY GROWTH.
i The Society of Christian Endeavor latc-
j ly had its tenth annual meeting in Mln
n eapolls. More than 16,000 societies were
represented, and these Include already up-
(, wards of a million souls. The society has
had a most wonderful growth. It was
' started in Portland, Me., ten years ago, af-
' ter a religious revival, for the purpose of
; holding the young people to active relig-
K- tous work. When four years old the
society embraced 253 local organizations
and nearly 15,000 members. All this time
Rev Francie E Clark, who originated the
fj movement, was made its president, and
3 the society was Incorporated under the
: laws ol Maine.
H It soon outgrew these bounds, spreading
