um naiurai rain arrived. .Now up to
the time of my leaving here on tlie
t mon J'acitiu tram .No. a at 3:20 a. in,
ol the2.Ui, there h.rl been no notice of
any exjieoted change in the weather
which readied me and I believe none was
sent out by the United States signal
service, whose reports I watch, because
I have never been set to work by any
local committee when there were indica
tions for rain. Had 1 waited a few
hours here I might have been saved the
trouble and exjiense of a trip.
In introducing my discovery to the
world at large I expect that many will
lie credulous, and where millions of capi
tal are invested in irrigation or whore;
some i-igrial service observer's predic
tions are not verified, as often harioens
on my account. 1 exjiect selfish opposi
tion, and get it from both sources. But
I do think that after eighteen altogether
and two partly successful demonstra
tions in America, that the importance of
my discovery would entitle me to more
intelligent observation than is accorded
by a leading journal, implying that 1
use bombs or explosives in the redien
lous expectation of jarring down rain.
My process consists in forming my own
clouds, (and I prefer a clear sky) and in
getting rain irom those clouds, in which
work there is no evidence to an observer
by sound or sight. My studies were at
tracted to rain production by attempts
made in Auiitaalia in 1sm3, to produce
rain by cannonading, and which were a
Tailure. I announced through papers in
Canton, O., about May 13, that I could
bring about rainfall, and had been suc
cessful a number of times in doing so,
when tlie government experiments were
falsely given out as being successful in
Midland, Tej;. 1 have published a circu
lar giving accounts (taken from different
newspapers in tlie arid regions) of my
work in several places.
But the most serious impediment to
my vvork of introducing my discovery is
the attempt of some parties livuigin
Good land, Kas. , to steal tho advertise
ment my work gives by pretending to
have stolen my method ot work, home
of these men made propositions to me
that I should produce rain and they form
a company lor business. Having only
seen them once, and not liking their ap
pearance, I ignored tlie oiler, (in leav
ing the town I was surprised to see it
announced that they had bought my
state right for Kansas for f lDii.OOO. 1
denied it repeatedly through the press,
but all tlie time l am hearing ol my lail
ures through my "agents,'' and selling
state s rights, etc. I have no agents
who pretend to produce rain. I can pro
duce rain and break drouth, and have
never offered to charge even so much as
one cent per cultivated acre watered inj
drouth, but demand pay in some small
proportion to the benefit of my work to
the country, and no time is more satisfac
tory to me to be set to work than when
the United States sicnal service predicts
drouth. Very Respectfully,
Frank Melboiuxe.

A Pretty Surprise.
A beautifully illustrated and cliarm
ingly bound edition of Longfellow's
"Evangeline," the most popular long
poem ever published by an American
author, and one of the most famous
poems in the language, just published,
is a pretty surprise for book lovers. It
is in large type, numerous and excellent
illustrations, very tine and heavy paper.
gilt edges, remarkably handsome cloth
binding, with gilt title and ornaments.
No illustrated edition has ever before
been published at less cost than 41.50.
and tfiat is about what you might guess
the price of this to be, but it isn't it
sells for only 19 cents! plus 6 cents for
postage, if by mail. This covers only
alwut the actual cost of manufacture by
the 100,000, the publisher's object being,
not profit, but to show the book-loving
millions what he can do. His publica
tions are not sold by dealers, but only
direct; catalogue, over 100 pages, a liter
ary curiosity in its way, is sent for a 2
cent stamp. Every home in the land
ought to have a copy of this Evangeline,
so charmingly beautiful, as a poem, as a
collection of artistic illustrations, and as
a product of the book-making art. Ad
dress, John B. Alden, Publisher, 57 Rose
