Andy Taylor is plauulug to get
away In a (lay or two for the head of
the White with a load of supplies
from Dawson. He brought down his
Uvo-horse rig, aud will have a full
load ou lii'- way back. Accompanying
him will be Joe McLellan, who workH

wanger, both of whom came down
with Taylor. Tommy Doyle, who is
interested in Chisaua claims, also
will go up with the party, to look
after his property.
I Mr. Taylor has been freighting
; along thu White thl3 winter. He re
l ports th6 river in as good condition

perfectly satisfactory to him. He
is the pioneer freighter ci' the Whit©
ar.d has ."-ade trips up the river witi'
supplies for tho boundary surveys
and the copper claim owners of the
White iruny times. Last year ha
took his freight on the main river
right to Canyon City. This year
he has supplies for the Chisana
proper, and plans to go up the Beav

WHIMS OF THE AIB
Curious and Rapid Changes In
the Velocity of the Wind.
HOLES IN THE ATMOSPHERE.
These Danger Spots, From tho Avia
tors' Viewpoint, Are Born of tho Al
most Instantaneous Variations In tha
Force of th# Aerial Currents.
Since mau has provided himself with
wings he has learned more astonishing
things about the air than were dream
ed of in his old philosophy. He has
bad to learn them In order to make
traveling safe on his new aerial high
way. The wind was almost a complete
mystery until aeronauts began to make
close acquaintance with Its strange
moods and vagaries. The startling ex
periences of aviators have stimulated
the anemometrists—L e., the wind
measurers—to fresb Investigations,
which have bad surprising results.
Consider, for Instance, these things
which have been found out by the
Aerotecbiilc institute of the University
of Paris:
If two anemometers (wind measur
ersi ar^ placed side by side about sev
enty-two fwt above the ground when a
wind of from thirty-threw to forty
eight feet per second is blowing the
most remarkable differences In the ve
locity of tbe wind are observed. If the
anemometers are only ten Inches apart
both usually show nearly tbe same
wind velocity, but If tbe distance be
tween them is increased to about thir
ty two inches one will sometimes show
a wind velocity of ten feet per second
more rapid than that shown by the
oilier Bm ihls difference lasts only
for an Instant. If tho distance be
tween tbe auemoulcters is Increased to
twenty three or twenty-four feet, tbe
usual length of an aeroplane, the dif
ferences in the velocity of the wind
shown by them are occasionally enor
mous. but of very brief duration. This
must clearly produce a racking effect
upon au aeroplane, which may be dis
astrous. for one end of It may for a
second or so experience a resistance
double tha: felt at the other end.
But this Is by 110 means alL Not only
does the wind vary In this capricious
fashion st places a few fee( or a few
yards apart, but It varies with equal
violence and suddenness at tbe same
point, as is proved by fixing a single
anemometer |t a height of seventy
five or eighty feet above the ground
and observing the successive changes
In its indications of velocity. Thus it
has been found that a wind whose av
erage velocity was about thirty-eight
feet per second maintained that ve
locity for as much as ten successive
seconds and then in a second and a
half dropped to less than fourteen feet
per second, which it maintained during
two seconds, after which in the course
of half a second it sprang up to a ve
locity of fifty feet per second! It main
tained tbe last mentioned velocity far
only a single second.
In another case the velocity of the
wind rose In three-quarters of a second
from twenty-six and one-quarter feet
to fifty-seven and one-balf feet per sec
ond.
Considering these facts. It Is no won
der that aviators meet with strange
accidents by running Into what they
call "holes in tbe air," for the sustain
ing force of the air. on account of the
suilden variations of the wind, may
almost Instantly lose half Its value and
then with equal suddenness recover, or
more than recover. Its former power
Such things enable any one to under
stand the peculiar perils that the avia
tor bns to face. Even ordinary mortals
know that the wind is capricious, but
to tbe navigator of the air it becomes
sometimes a very demon, or a legion
of demons, whose eccentric gambollngs
are as uncontrollable as they are unex
pected.
It took thousands of years for sea
men to learn how to face with un
flinching hearts the vagaries of tbe
ocer.n waves and currents and for
shipbuilders to devise vessels that
could defy tbem. but It seems likely
that we in a few decades shall have
mastered tbe caprices of the atmos
phere aud have produced airships that
will safely ride the wildest wind.
It is the advance of science that has
given us the great advantage which we
possess over our predecessors In over
coming nature's obstacles, but in
ii crease of knowledge would not have
served us if there had been decrease
of courage That there has been no
such decrease is proved every day by
tbe daring feats of aviators.—Garrett
St-rviss in New York Journal.
One Way to Clean Windows.
There are so muny "best" ways to
clean windows that one hesitates to
offer her method unless very sure it Is
tlie way. Three or four ounces of
emery flour in a heavy canvas sacls
<U>out six inches square will clean and
[ i<>!ish windows with greater ease than
anything else 1 Unow. Simply rub the
bag over the window. It also removes
streaks I'rom any glass.—Women s
Home Companion.
Bells of Bruges.
The famous peal of bells in the bel
fry at Bruges is played on the principle
of a music box, with an enormous
drum weighing 2.000 pounds. In the
drum are 3U4W0 holes for brass pegs
which touch the trackers and move the
wires communicating with the bell
hammers. The airs are changed once
each year, but the drum must be
wound up every two hours.
Spend a few minutes to find out
whether a tuing Is worth doing before
you spend hours in doing it
