A BLOW IN JAMAICA
Things That Happen When a Big
Storm Breaks Loose There.
A WEST INDIAN HURRICANE.
It Will Leap Out of a Clear Sky and
Level Almost Everything In Its
Path - Then Comes a Torrential
I Downpour That Ends In a Flood.
11ave you ever been through a West
Indian hurricane'" said a man who
has lived in the tropics on and off for
a number of years. "Do you want to
know what the experience Is like?
".A hurricane will leap out of a clear
e:y. swoop down on a city. blow ev
erything in its path flat and pass on.
Then follows the tail of the hurricane.
a steady breeze blowing in the same:
direction. but at a much lower veloci
ty. This is likely to cOntinue for
many hours, sonetimes for niany days.
and is always accompanied by a tor
rential downpour of rain.
"I was in Kingston. Jamaica. at the
timn of the hurricane of 1x3. At 3
o'clock in the afternoon I was in my
office on the top floor of a rickety
wooden building. As suddenly as a
clap of thunder the room went dark.
-I had a pretty good idea of what
was about to happen and. going to the
window, looked out acro--s the roofs.
A black cloud had whirled up out of
the southwest. obscuring the sun. but
the mountains back of the city were
still golden with light.
"In less than a quarter of an hour
the wind reached us. The first strue
ture that went was a wooden watch
tower about 200 feet high that had
been used in the old days to locate;
ships approaching the harbor. It had
weathered all previous hurricanes, but
this time it went down like a house of
cards. Spars of lumber from that
tower were carried as far as twenty
blocks before they came to the ground.
"Then the spire of the church went.
the roofs ce a good many residences
were torn off, and some fine palm trees'
In the public gardens snapped off about
halfway from the ground. Buildings in:
Kingston. however. are calculated to
stand a pretty severe blow. They are,
built only a few stories high. and the
roofs present a broad and compara
tively oat surface to the wind. Consid
ering the velocity at which that burri
cane was traveling, the damage was
not great. Even my crazy otice build
Ing withstood it. But the tail of the
thing followed, with a heavler rain
than I have ever seen before or since.
To say that It came down In bucket
fuls would be mild. It was as if the1
el.erk of the weather had taken the
plug out of some huge vat suspended
above our heads and allowed the wa
ter to plump straight down on us
"In three hours the macadam on the
streets had been washed into tie bar
bor. The street outside my window
was a rushing river as much as four
feet deep in places. I saw a cart try
to cross It. but with the water above
the axle of the wheel and the horse's
legs being washed away from undinr It;
it was an impossible task. a-.d the:
driver turned back. BIg cask andI
packing cases were dancing on the sur
face like corks.
home you can limagine, I did not get;
hoeto supper that evening. It was S
o'clock before the rain stopped and the
water in the streets had drained into
the harbor. Even then trtdne had not
begun to reorganize itself.
''The trolley car tracks had been
washed out. and no cars were run-j
ning. Cabs. however, were doing al
roaring business, and eventually 1 got
a cabman to drive me home for three
times his customary charge.
"The damage to property in King
ston mounted up to hundreds of thou
sands of dollars. but the real destruc
tion was wrought in the country dis-t
tricts. Floods wiped out many a negro
village and sent the flimsy houses
floating down the rivers. The railroads
were tied up fornearly aweek. Everyi
h anana tree in the path of the hurrn
cane was uprooted. Oh. yes. a West
SIndian hurricane can do a lot of dam-'
age when It gets busy.
m ss oflife, did you say? Ofcourse
-there was. Nearly 200 people were
killed throughout the island on that oc
Scasion, but we grow accustomed to
:jthat in the West IndIes. We expect a
hurricane every once in awhile, and
Iwe know that it will take its toll of
human lIe when It comes. If you had
ebeen telling the story you would prob
Sably have mentioned that tirst of all.

that "gem of the oceamn" tits an island

A UBERAL OFFER.
Its Effect Upon the Customer to Whom
It Was Made.
A busincss man of Dayton. 0.. tells
1 this story of some commercial friends
of hLis:
A customer who bought in a small
way from the wholesalers and whose
credit was not of the sort known as
gilt edged visited the city and pur
t chased a $2,SO0 bill of goods, paying
$2,500 in cash and giving his note for
the retining $300.
After the transaction had been closed
and the paper and currency had chang
ed hands the customer said:
"Now, after a deal of that size It Is
customary to give a purchaser a pres
ent. Come across with It."
"We'll throw in a pair of suspen
- ders," laughed the salesman temporiz
ingly.
"A pair of suspenders. eb: Say. quit
fooling. I really mean It. I expect you
to do something in acknowledgment of
my patronage."
'The salesman went to the manager
with the problem. and the manager
said:
"Well. if he !eels that way about it
we might encourage him a bit. We'll
do something that ought to please him
greatly. Give him back his S.0.'0 vote.
Make him a present of his l.I-er. That
will make him a cash customer and
raise his credit and save him money
besides."
The salesman went back. pleased to
' be the bearer of such joyful tidings of
liberality in business.
"Well, sir." he said. -we've arranged
about that present. all right. Ilere."
-vith a flourish. "is your note. We give
it back to you."
The customer did not seem enthusi
r astic. Instead, without looking at the
note he asked:
"Is it Indorsed?"
"No." said the salesman in astonish
ment.
"Then I guess you better gimme the
suspenders." said the disappointed cus

SITurner's Little Afterthought.
SAn English critic's reference to Tur
1 nr's fine picture "The Wreck Buoy"
I reminds a faithful newspaper reader
e of a curious anecdote in connection
with it. When Turner first sent this
s picture to the Royal academy It was
hung among several brilantly colored
1 pictures. On varnishing day Turner
found the effect of his dull gray ren
f dering of a stormy sea altogether
Cspoiled by its bright surroundings.
Without a moment's hesitation he
painted in the lighted buoy in' the fore
e rund, and its dab of crimson light
showed so brilliantly in its gloomy set
ting that Turner's picture became the
t prominent one, and its rivals on each
'.side were cast into the shade. It 1s
curious, If true, that the most notice
able feature of the picture should have
been an aftertought.-Bostonl Tran

der which water actually flows up
ward and rises above its source. If a
glass tube he dipped into water the
column ins dte will be above the level
of the surrounding surface. Moreover.
if a tube of half the diameter be sub
sttuted the column doubles Its height.
The water creeps along the inside of
the tube, owing to the adhesion, and
forms a cup shaped depression at the
top.
An explanation is not dificult. It
can be proved mathematically that if
the.dameter of a circle be diminished
one-half the circumference is also re
duced to that extent. while the area is
one-fourth of its former value. The
circumference of the column of water
being reduced one-half, its contact
with the glass, and hence the adhesive
force, is also diminished to that extent.
while the cross section. and hence the
weight, Is decreased to a fourth of
what it was before. Therefore the sec
ond column can be twice the height of
the first without exceeding the lifting
power.
Remarkable as the underlying prin
ciples of this phenomenon undoubtedly
ae, nature made use of them long be
fore man made their discovery. Every
tree and flower adds Its testimony.
The core of a tree or plant. instead of
berg a single open channel, consists
of a spongelike substance containing
many miniature tunnels, through
which the sap and moisture collected
by the roots flow upward in small riv
ulets. rising higher and higher in
sheer defiance of the great law of
gravity-St. Louis Republic
