That the aurora is an electrical phenomenon has long been recognized An intimate relation seems to exist be tween the aurora and sun spots. In 1882 the astronomer at Oreenwich sent out notification of the appearance of an enormous sun spot on Nov. 17 of that year. For three hours on the morning of that day not a wire of the Western Union Telegraph company could be used, and not even the mar ket quotations could be distributed. At o'ght there was a brilliant auroral display and all telegraph service was again Interrupted. Cables to Europe and wires to Chicago were alike un workable; but some messages were sent as far as 700.mtles by cutting oil the batteries and utilizing the atmos pheric electricity. Over half of North America, across the Atlantic and over northern Europe it seemed as if le gions of ethereal demons were busy inciting electric and magnetic appara tus to strange and mischievous antics. The p tificial production of an electric fire-ball by Prof. Richmann is unique, though electricity in this form is not unfamiliar. Sometimes such balls are seen to run along the surface of the sea, and when they appear on land they usually hurst with a loud noise, often with disastrous effects. Nobody has yet been able to explain these balls, which appear to be a very con centrated form of electricity When the experts say, as most of them do, that electricity is merely a form of mo tion, the explanation is more or less unsatisfactory, but how is one to ac count for the presentation of a form of a motion in the shape of a luminous sphere?—Boston Transcript. 13 A THING OP THE PAST. Long-Horned Steer Took Too Much Rpoee end Held Too Decided Opinions. Ten yearB from now the visitors at the stock yards in Chicago will look at the massive horns nearly six feet from tip to tip that hang over the doorways of offices and hardly be able to believe that they were taken from the head of a "beef critter” on the Texas ranges, and that hundreds of thousands of cattle with such horns once ran half wild on the ranches and plains of the Lone Star state. For the passing of the long-horned, long legged, uncertain colored and still more uncertain tempered Texas steer is a thing of today, and in his place one finds a stockily built, red or roan ani mal, with short, stubby horns, or no horns at all. The Texas steer of to day is not properly descended from the Texas cattle of the past. He has sim ply supplanted the others on the ranges, and the former animal has either migrated farther south or has gone out into space and is no more. The Improvement—as it most certainly is—has been brought about in many ways. The first great change came when the cattle man decided that car space that could be filled up by good, salable beef, was more profitable than that taken up by the picturesque horns of the Texas steer, and began to dehorn the yearlings and young steers. More could be gotten into a car, as they could stand closer together. It was but a step to then begin to improve the quality by crossing the cows with fine bred bulls, Durham, Hereford and Angus, and the Texas steer of 1900 will compare very favorably with the cat tle in Missouri. He has taken on weight, and will average 100 to 150 pounds heavier than In former days.
