SHUWtrtS UF FISH.
The Way the Not Unusual Phenomenon
Is Drought About.
The phenomenon of a shower of i
fish is of more common occurrence i
than is generally supposed.
It is undoubtedly due to some ;
small fry of fishes having been lift
t! from the water and carried over
drv land by what is popularly!
known as a waterspout. When two >
currents of air traveling in oppo- j
site directions meet, the resulting
atmospheric disturbance, if on a
small scale, is called a whirlwind
and if on a large scale a tornado,
the destructive powers of which are
proverbial.
Hon. Ralph Abercrombv defines
a whirlwind as "a mass of air whose
height is enormously greater than
its width, rotating rapidly round a
more or less vertical axis." The
mass might be, for instance, 2001
feet high and only ten feet in diam-1
eter. This whirlwind column has a
funnel-like center and may travel
as fast as thirty miles an hour in a
particular course.
The phenomenon is usually visible
in the sky as a descending column.
This is owing to the compression
of a cloud within the circuit
of the whirlwind air. Should the
disturbance reach the surface ot tne
ground dust, mud and all kinds of
debris are sucked up into the column
and carried along. If the path
of the axis of the disturbance crosses
the sea or a river, the surface water
is whirled up into the funnel
and mingles with the whirling column
of descending vapor, rilus ia
the ciTect knowp as a waterspout.
When thb rotary motion ceases
the accumulated moisture descends
in a cloudburst or as very heavy
rain. The small surface living fry)
of fish in the sea, usually herring or
even comparatively heavy fish from
shallow inland waters, are frequently
thus carried over drv land and
astonish the pedestrian by descending
on his umbrella.
Many cases are reported from
abroad, and they are common in
India. In England the species of
fish that thus fall are usually indignpicrhhorhood.
which
?V vtrv ,
shows that their involuntary journey
through the air is never very
far. Frogs', insects and other living
creatures have also been known
to be thus transported through the
air.?London Globe.

M. d? Mkabelle WouW Net Telt
i "A venerable and worthy nobleman,
M. Pompignan de Mirabelle,
was iraprudent enough to repeat at
a supper party some satirical verses
he had heard touching Mmc. de
1'ompadour and M. de Bartinee, the
chief of police. Warned that De
Sartiaea had filled ifrhife name on a
lettre da cachet, M. de Mirabelle
called at the police office and asked
to what prieon he should betake
himself. 'To Vincennes/ Mid De
9arti??s.
* To Vincennes/ repeated M. de
Mirabelle to his coachman, and he
arrived at the dungeon before the
>nler for his detention.
"Once a year De Sartines made a
formal visit to Vincennes, and once
n rear punctually he demanded of
M. de Mirabelle the name of the
author of the verses. 'If I knew, I
should not tell you/ was the invariable
reply, 'but as a matter of fact
I never heard it in my life.' M. de
Mirabelle died in Vincennes a very
old man."?"Dungeons of Paris."
8purgeon'? Blunt Critic.
When Mr. Spurgeon first began
his ministry an anonymous critic
used to write to him constantly
about his mistakes in grammar and
pronunciation. Mr. Spurgeon at
first resented these criticisms, but
he soon learned to profit by them.
"After awhile," he said in telling
the story, "I looked for his weekly
3. # Al 1*1 1 TP
memoranda wun mucn mcerest. ii |
I repeated a sentence which I had J
used two or three Sundays before,!1
be would write, 'See the same ex- ]
pression in such and such a ser- ;
9 99
raon. j
Mr. Spurgeon, like everybody
;lse, had his pet quotation, and he
ised this line, "Xothing in my hand (
;o bring," rather frequently. So i
lis commentator wrote him, "We ;
ire sufficiently informed of the vac- (
lity of your hand."
Siameae 8up?rstitiona. 1
The first thing an orthodox Sia- f
uese does in the morning is to
care away the family ghosts who *
lay have gathered about the old 1
lace in the night. Letting off a
rackers is an effectual means. At t
be new year all the ghosts come H
rooping to their former dwellings,
'or three days they have their fun. ^
.t the end of the time the priests
ud their flocks fire guns and use n
ther devices for getting rid of i]
lem. A Siamese is coffined face c]
awnward, so that the ghost may
at sneak back through the dead
an's mouth. The coffin is taken *
it through a hole in the wall and ti
irried several times round the
mse in order that the ghost may
t put off the scent and not return
vex his family.

papers were read on the following
subjects: "The Rela- f
tion of a Teacher to Her Community"'
and "Should Prizes be
Offered in our Public Schools?"
Two motions were made and
carried. One to hold the next
regu'ar meeting at Benson, S C,
on S.iturdiy January 25, 190S,
and the other to extend
the thanks of the society
to the resident teachers
for the plentiful repast
served. A goodly nunber of
new members were enrolled. ?
A'll Williamsburg1 teachers are
urged to attend the next meeting.

Marked "Refused."
Bill Nye had the. truth well
told when he said: man may
use a wart on the back of his
neck for a collar button, ride on
the back coach of a railroad
train to save interest on his
money till the conductor gets
around, stop his watch at night
to save the wear and tear, leave
his 4i' or 't' without a dot or
cross to save ink, pasturehis
goat on his mothers
grave to save corn; but,, a
man of this sort is a gentleman
and a scholar compared to
the fellow that will take a
newspaper two or three years
and wnen asked to-pay for it
puts it into the office and has it
marked "refused."

Want More Cotton to Gilt
On account of insufficent supply
of cotton to keep us running
every day, beginning next
week, we will confine ourselves
to gin days. These being Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Friday
of each week. The ginning public
will please govern themselvsi
accordingly. 1}
While the price of seed fs
somewhat off, yet we are paying
more than the present conditions
will warrant for all the
seed accessible, that we mirrht
control the situation here among
you, A home corporation doing
business at home for the interest
at home.
To those who do not rare to
sell their seed for cash we are
offering a strictly high grade
meal in exchange. Our rate of
exchange at the mill is 1500 lbs.
of meal for one ton of seed. It
is a conceded fact cotton
seed meal is a cheaper and
more effecthe fertilizer than
cotton seed. According to
chemical analysis of each 886
pounds of cotton |eed meal
are equivalent to 2000 pounds
if cotton seed, but owing
to the superior mechanical 1
:ondition of meal, it is safe to
lesume that 800 pounds of meal
are the full equivalent to one ton
>f cotton seed, therefore, what'
*
iver excess above 800 pounds of
neal thejfarmer gets in exchange
or a ion 01 seed is so mucn clear
irofit to bim in comparison with
ising the ton of seed directly as
. fertilizer. You can readily see
hat by exchanging your seed
'ith us you realize nearly 100
ier cent on the transaction.
Bring your seed to us and not
lake the mistake of getting
nferior meal elsewhere in exhaDge.
Our meal is open for inspecion.
