Jfot Always liotiithoCIomlH During the progress of the electrical storm of July 8 in this state , it was noted in several places thsit electrical discharges passed from earth to the clouds sis well as from' Wio clouds to the earth. The Post-Impress described this phenomenon as observed at Irondcquoit bay , says the lioehester Democrat. A goiilloiiiiin who recently returned from the Adirondack observed tliosamo elec trical action. Discharges passed from the lulls across Star lake to the clouds and from the clouds to the hills. Similar observations wore made In this city in ISSo or 1SSG. Prcccdiiigaml during the volcanic eruptions in Now Zealand , Juno 11 , ISSO , electric fireballs or meteors were ob served to pass from the earth. These electrical discharges wrro from I'ojrlons considerably removed fiom the volcanic cralors. it has been urprod that the eye cannot delect the direction of a lightning' Hash , and that the passage of a discharge from thoeaith to the sky is only apparent , an optical illusion. This objection is em ployed mainly lo support a theory that the passage is nlwsiys from the sky to thoeaith. If the reasoning of the ob jection bo correct , what is thereto sup port the theory that the passage is always from tlio sky to the earth. The statement that discharges nro invariably from the sky to the earth is based on ob servation , nnd has no oilier basis. An object on the earth may bofchattorcd by a bolt passing front the earth to the sky as well as by passngo from sky to earth , Tlio shuttering force is shown when the fluid pisses from ono medium toanother. The testimony of bight must bo accepted in ease of apparent pasMigo of the bolt from earth to sky If ills accepted in the passage from iky to earth. llrit'klayet-'s I'icnto , Tenth annunl picnic of tlio Oinalia bricklayers' union will bo given at Wat erloo , Sunday , August'- ! , to which all the bricklayers , tholr families and friends are cordially Invited.

Tlio New York Sun's correspondent visited the scene of Indiana's greatest natural phenomenon. Ten acres of the farm of Thomas Hnban , late member of the legislature , three miles s-outh of "Wnldroa have been destroyed for farm ing purposes. Great holes have boon blown in the earth. Flat Rock creek , running through the hind , has been blocked in its corn-no and its waters turned up _ stream. liirds , snakes , rabbits and iibh in profusion nro dead , and the fish , thoroughly cooked , are thickly scattered through tlio waters. All this was caused by the upheavol yesterday. A log live was blazing on the ten-acre tract when , without warning , the earth belched forth lliimo. Great rocks and trees were hurled skyward , a part of the adjoining grave yard was torn oil' and reduced to dust , and Iho waters of Flat Hook were converted into foam and steam. A vast pocket of natural pas under or near Iho log ilro had exploded. The gas had accumulated apparently under the creek bed , hold in by a thick .stratum of bluish clay , and fed from the great depths below , whence the some what meajrro natural gas supply of Shel by county is ohlaind. The explosion throw great volumes of the blue clay Into the air , nnd left yawning - ing caverns , some of them big enough to hold a house. Through the caverns tind helen the gas continued to pour after the explosion. ft blazed fiercely up above the trees. The gas escaped under such pressure that the lltnno was forced us high as the tree tops. Tlio llamos at times would rise 100 yards. This con tinued all yesterday afternoon and last night. Today 3,000 Bpcclators witnessed the phenomenon. The lire has boon extin guished , but the gas , under reduced pressure , still escapes. The gas is odor less , like the Pennsylvania natural gas. The general conviction is that no other agency than gas could have pro duced the elTeot. .Neighbors who saw the Hying debris and heard the roaring noise say they thought for a moment that a tornado was doing the nmehicf , and many hurried with thulr children to places of shelter. Ono of the marvellous results Is the effect upon the water. Not a drop of Flat Rock's food has gene below the cavern since the upheaval. The great caverns have taken in the current , and a wild foaming Niagara is created on the edges of the abysses as the volume of gas comes In contact with Iho falling water. At noon today the holes are about full ot water and the creek begins tote to deepen \\lth the back water. The water is oven Mowing up blream. but presently will doubtless cut a now chan nel and Ilowon its downward course. Across the river from the Unban farm nro fissures , and the explosion in lib FCOPO took in ninny more acres besides Iho ton where its damage was greatest. In these-uvory living thing was appar ently killed , and the llbh , if not killed outright wcro cooked by the gas Waxing on the surface. The water still bolls today , lint the Hros are out. Few , If any , graves in the cemetery were not dis turbed. A. Max UoUliCMiiiDi- .

A IjETTl-I The I.lltlo GITPU Card dial Keeps a Watch UIDII | Them. _ Thcro isnliUlo green card in use by the poatoillco dopartmenl that is a terror to homo of the more careless lottcr- carriers , says the I'hiladolpliia Times. It is a terror only when they have once been caught. Very seldom , Indeed , are they caught the second time. This card isdVopned In a letter-box , nnd on it is innrlicu the time it was put in , and also the time it should bo taken out by the carrier. A record is hopt by the ohlof of the carriers , and if that little card does not turn up with the other mail with which it is duo , llisi clearly to bp soon that tlio carrier has not taken the mail from that parHuultr. ' box. Tlio object , of course , IH to test the re liability ot the carriers , \VhorothoroIs any coin plain ton the part , o ( thoeiti/ons about the tardinurf.sof local mails then a little green card is dropped in ono or more boxes in the district from which the complaint comes. Sometimes it shows carolchsnoss on the part of the carrier and sometimes It does not. It is. howovor.not necessary that there should bo complaints , for frequently Iho cards nro put in Iho boxes of the most olllclont ii.on. Of course they are happy when they discover them. Jhit vhoro a box is mlbscd in which there is a green card then Iho carrier is bound to got into trouble " and vorv serious trouble at that.

ATKOCiriUii IN M.VLUDOM.C3 Tlie Tjlfi ! ofn Christian Killed as Xolh- liifi liy tin ; AriHtut Trilip.x , After tlio train hud left I'xluih and passed ICtitschiinil : as It I'titi-n-d tlio nar row aim rocky piiHsnge ! ) which all the year roundtorvo as places of conceal ment to tlio Arnautswrites a London Daily News correspondent traveling in Macedonia , the otlleials all keep n sharp lookout. Tlio train steamed out of the tunnel of Kiitsidiaiiik when suddenly a discharge of rifles were hoard. About ninety feet above the line some si-vt'iity Arnauts were been , and favored by Iho ' blow speed of the train , fired their ropcating-rillcs into the windows us wo pas-sod. The stoker of the cugiiio was killed , and three of the passengers wcro danger ously wounded. An Arnaut woman had crossed the line some days before and had been knocked down by the engine and killed. Another train and oilier people had to pay for it. Not until I got tol'rislinadid I understand what terri ble power these hordes of uncontrolled men have over the population. The Musihir never dare * pronounce tv sentence ngainst nn Arnaut , however guilty ho may bo , for he would bo feign ing liis own death warrant. At the sumo time the minor ollieiala make common cause with the armed hands and take a share of the booty. The lifoof n I hris- tinn is rated at nothing , A man walks peaceably through the street , -when the novcr-falling ball of an Ar naut strikes him from behind. Nobody cares for the victim , and the authorities would never think of coking tlio criminal. All the clans unite when any'action Is to bo un dertaken ngainst the Giaours. It is im possible to describe what the Servians and Hulgnrlans have to suffer under the tyranny of these wild tribes. They are absolutely without protection , for Servia and Bulgaria , though they are not ignor ant of the stale of tilings , are too weak to call Turkey lo account on this subject and the powers svill not meddle- for fear of what the results might bo for all Europe. , A foreign consul in Pristinn vouches . for the truth of the following fact , which shows what the Servian Christian popu lation hiK ) to sulTcr at Iho hands of these savngos : Last month the Arnauts sud denly entered the Servian'tchool i of "Priitina , carried pit' the thrco > r masters , and the mistress , whcsi they Imprisoned nftor violating the lat ter. The Turkish government thought lit to close the school for good after this incident , in a neighboring town the master of the school was also impris oned and Iho school closed , The par ents are thus forced to send their chil dren to tlio Molmininodnn schools. A few days ago forty Arnauts laid siege to the laiigo farm of ono .Milar Tijanio , nearPribtiiin , who , with a hom-ohohl of sixteen men and women all well armed , resisted the attack. When ovcnlngcamo only the masler ami his three sons wcro loft , and they surrendered. The Ar- mints full upon tliom and literally cut them to pieces. Then they throw the corpses into a neighboring maize Held , whew a Hock of eagles and vultures feed upon them everyday , and can b'o been from the town , I will only mention ono more of the hundred Incldontti which form everyduv * - lifoliore , Two boyn , bom of a farmer named Lusarovitdi , nt 1'risroml , wore in the fields with their father's cattle a wool ; ago , when an Arnaut caught them , and , taking them homo on his horse , attempted - tempted -to ill-use them. The boys Ht niggled-for liberty and tbo Arnaut out them to pieces , lie .then packed their heads , feet , bunds and trunks in a bug , and , riding with it past the house of thuir father , threw it down nl bib door. The Turkish government daily gives as surances of its Inability to chiingo tliii I elate of things. _ - 'J tin World Do .Hove.
