KITES AS WEATHER VltOPIlETS.
Dsarlng Thermometers .MuTt They Forstell
Chances In Temperature.
Experiments are being mado in Bayonne, N.
J., with kites to test tho theory of the relation
between the temperature of the upper air and
that at tho earth's surface. Somo yearn ago
William A. Kddy, tho klto llyer, advanced the
theory that whon a considerable decreaso in
temperature was found in tho upper strata thero
would bo a cool wavo at the earth's surface
within forty-eight hours. This theory Is held
by tbo experts' at tho Blue Hill Observatory,
and also has supporters In tho Weather Bureau
at Washington. For a year now Mr. Henry L.
Allen of Bayouno has been experimenting with
self-registering thermometers sent up In kites,
and of his ten trials nut ono fulled to substun
tlate the thtory.
As fur as it has been worked out, tho theory Is
that whero the air aloft I 10" cooler than at tho
earth's surface thcro will Do a fall of tem or
nturu within forty-eight hours, nnd where It Is
less than 10' cooler, thu temperature will rise.
In the experiments the normal c ocrcase of l'for
every 250 feet of altitude was reckoned on as a
factor. The following tablo of experiments
shows that In every trial but tho last tho rule
worked perfectly. In each case tho averago
temperature of tho day selected for the experi
ment was taken, the temperature marked by
the thermometer sent aloft by kite, and the
temperature of the two days following,

THE FAILURE OF ZIONISM.
AltAXliOXMKNT OF T1IK ZAltOB
IDEAS OSVE ASSOCIATED n'TTU IT,
Soma Aulhsntln InTorinnllnn Concerning tha
Zionist Congress In Hnllinrland Nothing
Whnlrvrr Nald There A limit the Orgniilsa
linn or n "Jcvil.h Hlaln" lu Palestine.
The oalcnslbio purnoso of the Zionist congress
recently held at Unslc, rwltterlaiid.wai to mako
provision for tlio founding of a " JowlshStato"
In Palestine. That purpose was relinquished by
tho congress, to tho dlsnpuoliitmont of Its pro
moters, on account of the InauriiiouiiUiMo obsta
cles In the way uf Its execution. Theso obstacle
wcro brought to notice durlnir tho four days ln
which tho congress whs in session ; nnd when
their diameter had been fully rccojnlied by tbo
delegates they reluctantly abandoned thobellet
which many of them had entertained that Pules
lino would again belong to the Jewish pooplo.
This Btntomcnt Is founded upon tho uutbcntlo
report ot the proceedings of the congrosB that
hns been prepared and published by tho London
Jewish Chronicle.
In tho profession that was finally adoptod by
the congress thero is no mention of nJowlih
State, or ot thopuulinno of Palestine, or of the
wonderful designs which have boon so glowingly
described by tho ' new Moses," Dr. Thcodor
Horzl of Vienna. Tho moderation of tho pro
fession that mot tho approval of tho congress
was in marked contrast to tho previous an
nouncements of tho Zionist loader. It was to
tbo following terms that the object of tho con
gross was finally reducod:
The slm ot Zionism is to creste for the Jewiih peo
pto a publicly, legally assured home In Palestine.
This. In truth, Is nothing moro than the many
thousands otJows now settled In Palestine al
ready po-sess. It Is not, In any respect, an nd
vanco upon oxisttng conditions, and offers no
additional security to tho Jewish colonies that
havo been established in Palestine under the
protection of thoTurks. Tho terms abovo quoted
wero described ns a compromise; but ln truth
they aro anart from tho original object of
Zionism, which was tho creation of a Jewish
State, under satisfactory guarantees.
In order to attain the end thus sought for by
tho congress, certain measures wero drawn up
nnd accepted. It was resolved, (1) to promote
tbo settlement In Palestine, of Jewish farmers,
mechanics, laborers, and professional men: (2)
to aid In the centralization of tho Jewish peo
ple, under lawful Institutions: (3) to strengthen
Jewish senlimentund conscience; (1) to obtain
tho sanction of Government for tho carrying out
of thospecltled ends.
Thus again, ln these matters also, thore was a
marked ueparlure from tbo exteuslvoand sub
stnnttvo programme of action for the congress
that had been drawn ud by Herri and Nordau.
It Is known that alrcndr thcro aro elTorts, somo
of them successful, to Induco Jewish colonists
to settle lu Palestine. and to accomplish tho
other objects Indicated In tho foregoing proposi
tions. Tho ltothschllds, the late Baron Hirscb,
and other wealthy .lews have furnished means
to promote the Jewish colonization of Palestine.
No won or that tbo llaslo congress was a die
npuolntment to those Isru lltes who have lookod
for practical measures in tho interest of a new
nnd great Jewish Slate.
t-'or the raising of tho funds needed for the ex
ecution ot the diminished uroirramme it was
promised to form a central llnanclul bureau,
which should carry on negotiations with tho
world of finance. Three schemes were brought
forward. Ono of them provided for a loan of
5o,0O0.OOO; another for the formation of soci
eties the members of which should receive
grants of land ln 1'n.lcstlno proportioned to
tho amount contributed; and tho other
for a collcctlvo fund to which every
head ot a Jewish family should mnke
an annual subscription. Them was also a
plan for a great Jewish bank, nnd thero were
yet other ulans. It does not appear that in the
delivery of opinions upon this subject tho Jew
IbU genius for tlnan-c was mado manifest. The
conclusion that was tlnnlly reached In regard to
the question of raising funds seemed to contain
a measure of promise for the treasury. A reso-,
lotion was adopted by the congress "that overjn
Zionist who wishes to possess tho right of
electing delegntes to the next congress which
Is to meet next year in Jerusal ml shall
voluntarily pay every vear for Zionist
purposes nt least one shekef." or about 2.1 cents
in United States nionev. The proposition for
procuring a loan of S0,O00.O00, and also the
other large propositions, wero all laid aside In
favor of tho modest resolution for Ihe annual
payment of a shekel. No dctegato ventured to
mnko an estimate of the amount that would
thus be obtuinrd foi the Zionist fund; but. If the
bead of every Jewish family In tho world wero
to pay In thu designated sum, the total amount
thus prorured would fall below $250,000.
Neither In regard to Ibc political programme
of Zionism, nor In rcgnrd to its flnnnclsl oro
gramme, were the high hopes that had been
raised by Dr. Herzl realised at the Dasle con
gress. The attendance upon the congress was smaller
than had been expected, yet tho names of 176
delegates and members were registered upon
the books, nnd they hnd dime from almost evary
r.iiropean country. It was a venerable rabbi
from Itoumanla who optned tbu congress, and
it was in nn exultant spirit that he proclaimed
his I'olief that mankind would now witness the
heglnnine f the third return of tho Jews to
Palestine. The full reort of the speeches which
appears in thu pamphlet Issued hv the London
Jnrith Chrantelr is marked by many passages
of eloquence at nnee plalntlvo and hupeful. It
cannot be said that all was pleasant or that
things were h.itl-.foctnr.v for the Zionists at
Il.isle; but tin, congriss ended In peace, under
the influent o of tbo ancient prayer of Israel,
whiih iseier repealed through the ages: "Next
year in Jerusalem!"

He Controvert! the Unitarian Ki.Kvnngeilti't f:
Conception or Iho Gospel It Is .Vol at Com. &
maail, Rais Or, Abbott, but n Iteteia m
Hon, the I'reelamatlon or at Freo uirt, at
Tho rtov. Dr. Lyman Abbott preached his first M
fall sermon or tho year yesterday at Plymouth 5f
Church, llrooklyn, nnd a largo congregation was $
present. It was understood that Dr. Abbott In- 8
tended to mako somo reply to the stnnd taken w
by tho Hov. U, Fuy Mills In his address on "The S
Mission to the Multitude" at tho Unitarian Con- ';
ference at Baratogn, and In this the cotigrega- '
tion was not disappointed. In tho opening
prayer Dr. Abbott made his only mention of the
Mayoralty election, lie said! '!
;' At this particular time, nt the approach of fv
tho election, when all men, even thu mutt fair- '(
uitnded.aro in Durplexlly as to tho right touns
to pursue, mar wo all bo nllocted with the true 1 m
clvlo prldo. May we novor lapse back Into tha I Ms
stato ot old Home. May this new city be a true I K
city, and a prldo to nil." I IB
Dr. Abbott took the text of bis sermon from H If
rtouians, I., 1(1: "Fori am not ashamed of ttiea y II
Ootpel." lio spoke, in part, as follows: I
"For some years the Ilor. D. Fay Mills has ' it
been preaching as an evangelist, and In all i
probability tens ot thousands of people dale the I
beginning ot their spiritual life to tho time
when they first heard him. Lately, as a L'nl- .
tarian, be has mado soma remarks on religion. ' ''
Now I am not going to preach a sermon about ,
the Rev, II. Fny Mills, but I do want to take up In ',
this connection somo of his utterances. He has t
spoken about the meaning of the Ootpel, and I '
has called It a command, rather than a ret ela
tion. :"
"Now I do not understand that to be the
Ootpcl messsge at all. I do not think that the
Gospel message meant that In any part. It it
true that men hare done wrong very often, and
it Is nlso true that they ought to be told that
they have done wrong, but that is not th
(Joipeli that Is the law. The Gospel does not ;.
command us to do for God; It announces, re- '
veals, that Ood has done something for ua; that , f
be Is doing It, and always will. That, 10 toy lift'
mind. Is exactly what the Gospel means. ,
"This wa- tho real menage: I havo come to ,Jtts
give you something; you are blind, and I have si&
come to make you see; you are deaf, and I bare I Ii '.
come to make you hear; you are poor, and I I lliR
have come to make; ou rich: you are lame, and liar
I have come to make you whole. Tbo kingdom II5f
of God Is like a seed planted in the ground. IB 5,"
That kingdom Is something that God hns dons IIS
for men. Out I cannot understand bow a man, 'JE
after preaching many years, can say: You 55!
hnvedone wrong; you should have done letter 1 :ft
To me that is Incomprehensible. BF
"It Is ss with Paul when Christianity was m
confounded with Judaism. He was carer to B
correct the error. This message of God is a new W
force, a new power, which lifts you up from im
Sour law. Paul never said that this menace JE
eclarrd men to have done wrong. Themeatsge ffi
is all the proclamation of a gift, not a summons '
to a duty. The Gospel is the revelation ot a S-
power which men may grasp. It Is not a new ,w
power, but a new revelation of an old power. S
Watts did not discover steam, nor did Edlton ;S
discover electricity; they discovered the means iff
of u ting these pow era. At
"Of course, there It a declaration in the Blblo M
that all men are sinners. That meant that men ift
refute to accept tho true life which is offered to ffi
them. Such men become as the twine before vg-
the enchantress Circe. When God comes to '.
them they prefer to remain where Ihey are. As iB
for those who prefer to read a Sunday news- .18,
paper or to ride a bicycle, instead cf coming Vtb.
here well, they must learn better. $B
" But the Gospel never says that you have $R
done wrong and that it summons you to da in.
right. No more does It do this than the icbool tj
bell which calls the children to school; thai bell Ub
does not tell the child that he has done wro g W
and that he mutt be punished; it merely offers m
a gift of knowledge to all those who with 10
partake. JT-
"Thlt Is the true menace of Goo: the gift of W
the Lord is eternal life through His Son. Jesus SL

her abbreviated skirts. S'
"A little higher, John," she said to a yonnjr
man whi stood beside her, holding at arm's jgj.

inch, and the woman's, right foot shot up ln Jf;
the air. jgj
"Hey, hey, hey," yelled every one who saw M
the feat, and the crowd began to close around ft
the high-kicking wheelwoman and her com- gj
panlon. jV
"Put 'er up higher." she called again, and the
young man obeyed. Again the foot fiew up W
and excitement grew. The woman kept on '
kicking and the crowd kept on growing. Surf
avenue was soon blocked. Carriages and M
wheels were stopped. In front of Chambers's 15,
drug store across tho street stood a number of
big boxes. Women were lifted onjtheie by ,
their cscoru.and tbey applauded ns vigorously as
did the men the rapidly rising altitude the kid:- 3g

"Here, what does this meant" he demanded. ' iE
"Nothing," said the man, as he put his hst W

"Well, you can explain it at the station W

under arrest," s
"Ob, don't arrest me. Mr. Policeman." pleaded
the woman, "it's no harm to do a.little4lcking f

began to weep. When the patrol wagon ar- .
